NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 57 - Lead with your chin

Hynes price rises offset Walkers decreases so I’m happy to keep

Hope JDB can be held out until round 14 for Alvaros sake.

I'm guessing around $600k

Averaged 50 in his last season.

So 50x12,500 puts him at 625k.

Or it could be something completely different

Broncos vs Dragons in round 13 on Thursday night before origin the following week. The NRL might quietly push him back to round 14 for "reasons".

Very weird there is nothing on NRL.com or the Dragons site about it yet.

Massively wrong. Apologies for that. I've fixed it and thanks for pointing it out.

Last priced in 2018 at $652k. 2 year off probably discount at rate if 7.5% a year So my guess mid $500k

He is that Radley/Murray type of player who I think will suit this new style of footy very well. Probably a high tackle away from a long stint on the sidelines though.

I guess he was never actually found not guilty... so one of those you never know things.

Brent Read just wrote a article in the Australian saying he could suit up this weekend. Although unlikely. NRL CEO also said the process to get him back is a very quick process. So Ford is a no go for me

Charges haven't officially been dropped yet, that happens tomorrow, so from there it's probably a week or two with at least couple of further weeks in reserve grade, maybe more given he hasn't been training with the squad and hasn't played a match in 2.5 years.

Ford is still a risk though, I wouldn't do it.

Twal had an unusual boost to his mins last week. Any reason to this?

Even without JDB, I reckon Ford is still a risk. Fui was playing 50 ish mins at lock. Ford got 60 last week but there were a few HIA's

Everybody is getting very excited about a guy who hasn’t played a game of footy in 2.5 years.

TBH I would be very reluctant to go near any of the Dragons pack. Even AM9 had some funky minutes going on a couple of weeks ago meaning he could only fit 50 tackles in.

I am not excited for fantasy reasons, just keen to see the bloke back in the game. Love a little bit of a shake up, plus it’s been a slow-ish week so good to get some big news. Wonder how Manase will end up.

Agreed S. Walker has a high b/e & it's possible he bleeds cash but the Roosters are up against the Raiders who look pretty brittle so it's also possible he goes large.

First time I've done one of these:

TU: Palasia
TD: Lewis

Does Crichton serve his second week of suspension during round 13 or does it not count because Roosters have a bye?
