Yeah I would watch for sure. You have very good knowledge of fantasty.

Thanks mate, much appreciated!

How many people do you think would want to watch?
1000?
3000?
5000?
>5000?

SpottheOzzie did some NRLFantasy youtube content, and his views ranged from several hundred up to just shy of 5000

All the high viewcount stuff was pre-season team planning stuff, and views dropped right off as the season progressed.

here is one of his high view count videos

Spot the Ozzie also has a hypnotic voice that is built for this sort of thing and was easy to listen to.


Some of the guys on here did a podcast on youtube earlier this season - views hit the dizzying heights of 269

I've not watched any of their content, but googling other Fantasy Youtube channels tells me that the NRL Fantasy Gurus get a few hundred views a shot

So unless you have some good tricks up your sleeve for selling yourself, I'd say you are going to be pushed to regularly get more than 1000 views per episode, and getting 1000 regularly would be a very solid achievement.
Basically you'll be doing it because you love it, not because you'll make much money out of it.

@StormTrooper96 Cracking avatar mate. Pity it's only 2 weeks.

News going around Sharks are in dire need to get rid of some cap space and Tigers are keen on Moylan.

Yesterday's rumour was Capewell. Could this be the return of the Tiger Sharks only in reverse when Heigho, Ryan & Fafita went ??

I know he was a gun before he left but the timing just seems so wrong now they have Drinkwater & Clifford established. They either play Holmes at FB and have to drop one of Drinkwater/Clifford and I'm sure clubs would pick them up or play Holmes at wing, which makes the most sense for team structure because left wing is their weakest position, but then pay a winger extortionate money that could be used better elsewhere

Seems quite weird to be honest  

i'd take clifford at the Broncos..

Doesn’t sound too promising re Sam.

Also just like to congratulate Chris Lawrence on going around again in 2020.

Poor Sammy...apparently he got back with his ex but it didn't work out. Sam got into an argument with her father & got a protection order against him. She apparently moved back home with the kids & Sam was visiting them. Yeah I was reading his shoulder could be career ending.

Just heard the Kiwi team on the radio...how does A. Blair keep getting picked.

Thanks so much Milchy!
I might give it a crack and see what happens. I really enjoy doing Fantasy and giving advice.

I was thinking of possibly starting with videos for BBL Supercoach and then do NRL Fantasy in January.

More than happy to listen to any advice as well

Good on you for having a crack. I'd suggest - ignore your BBL viewer numbers because the opportunity base is so much smaller and just use it to refine your format and delivery.

I’d also watch. I agree with Milch in that it’s a bit of a niche in terms of potential audience. Would you do NRL SuperCoach as well?

I think if you use your regression and excel stats that you were quoting during the season it would bring something different as from what I've watched on YouTube (nrl fantasy gurus) it's more opinionated analysis but still fun to watch

I'd be interested in watching it, currently learning regression at the moment in uni

I'm still trying to learn regression to improve the accuracy of the stats and predictions.

I might need a little bit of help with this but I still have a few more months to learn before Fantasy begins again.

Thanks for the reply

That was the plan
I still need to come up with segments, how I structure content, branding etc.

Hopefully by the time NRL Fantasy is back I will be good to go

I probably wouldn't do Supercoach and just stick to Fantasy (I think it's a better format with more reasonable prices, more variance in players, more strategy etc.)

Egan has signed for the Warriors on a 3 year deal. I suppose this makes the Luke move more certain. From a fantasy perspective it is good for Tevaga & Egan's not bad either.

I'd also be dropping in for a look Ben as long as it doesn't go for an hour.
Doing regular segments might give you some structure to work with. The segments would possibly change in the lead up to season start compared to early, mid and after SOO periods.

Thanks mate

I was thinking somewhere around 10 minutes for the video length

Do you have any suggestions for segments I could do?

Pretty poor form by Souths not getting him the work he needs because it's overseas, would count against their cap and Wayne doesn't think he's worth the coin he's on before you start paying extras. Instead medically retire him against his will. Every cent should count towards the cap if they pay him out.

It’s not as simple as that, he’s seen a few surgeons and specialists here and it’s not looking good.

Richo has come out and said it’s a fresh injury happened back in Round 5 and they’re confident we have a very strong case for medical dispensation.

It’s a matter of how much more his shoulder can take, he still has his whole life ahead of him pretty much.

The infection he got this year really deteriorated his shoulder apparently.

I was reading today Sam didn’t do anything wrong on his visit, Phoebe’ Dad is a snob and never accepted him right from the start.
