NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 4

If Knight gets 50mins going off a 0.93ppm last year he’d get around 46-47 points a game, now that is  an increase of 7-8 points on his current price and also he plays round 12 if you hold him that long.

He’s going  to be more of an enforcer for us without Sam and I think he will only get better and bust more tackles and get more tackle breaks. Knight may even go closer 1ppm as well.

Taukaieho averaged 44.9 last season and is priced at 47 and Robbo likes 4 forwards off the bench generally so I don’t see any upside in him and I think he won’t average 50.

I reckon Knight will get up to around the same price Tauk is after say 6 weeks.

Re Fotuaika he seems to score better I’ve noticed when coming off the interchange. When he starts he doesn’t score quite as well from the analysis I did. I think just by a small margin that Knight is the better pick.

He’d wanna have improved his defence, last time I saw him play in first grade he was a missed tackle making machine.

I won’t be starting with Cook as I wanna see how he scores first behind a team that has lost lots of grunt in our pack Souths are gonna have to play a bit differently surely and how that affects Cook’s scoring I have no idea.

If Carrigan gets 40mins he’s only gonna average 35 which is 5 points above his price currently.

I really want Carrigan too but I have just pencilled Knight back in to partner Haas. I think this coming season Knight will go to another level and his PPM is really really good so as I said above if he gets 50mins which is definitely possible he should average around 47 which is 8 points units above his starting price.

No Fifita in your team? David Fifita if he gets 60mins should average around 53 I reckon and be a keeper. You think he’s gonna get less than those 60mins?

A) Haas and Matto or
B) Lolo and Tapau

Mikaele priced at 26 - Predicted to start. In games where he gets around 40 minutes averages around 40. Bit of a risk but one of the best value options there I have seen

Carrigan priced at 30. - Predicted to start at Lock. In games where he gets around 40 minutes averaged slightly over 40.

I will re-assess after the trials and TLT but this is the best value in FRF I could find.

Much much better value than Best and arguably better than Lomax.

Yeah, because what choice did they have?
But Croft, unlike everyone else in the Broncos, can actually kick.
Maybe Milford still wants to take some of those long kicks when his team is on the backfoot. No biggy, I’ll swap Croft out for a Brimson or C.S’s main squeeze Hughes. Or maybe the game plan will be simplified to help Milford focus on running the ball: Croft kicks, Milford runs. Then Croft will stay. I believe it is why they chased Croft in the first place. That is a Seibold gameplan if I ever heard one.

multiple.scoregasms wrote:Still not getting the Brimson love. Yes he has scored well in limited stints at fullback before. Yes he has the ability to score a few long range tries. I see him as a less dominant Ben Barba type at fullback peaking around 36-37 average in the worst team in the comp. I don't see that as an auto pick that most are
