NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 2 - pareto weighted moving average

King will start at lock, plugging into Finucane's old spot, though he won't play as many minutes. It'll be the first 20 minutes for him at lock (until Grant comes on), and then a 15-20 minute stint later in the game in the prop rotation.

Grant won't play 80 unless he absolutely has to, he had injury issues last year and they won't want to work him into the ground

Moeroa if looking for experience too. Still only 26, but has been playing in NRL since he was 18.

So you are expecting King to start at lock in round 2 with all players back?

Haha, it's been a rough few years for both of us!  Mind you, you had a cracker DT year the one before last didn't you, or is my memory getting even worse?  Travelling well over there I trust?

Yeah mate but that seems like an eternity now lol

All good over here, thinkgs opening up more and more, just come back from Benidorm on a stag so even travel loosening!

Kids rugby still on a tear, boys beat private rugby school by 70 points few weeks back and into UK league finals for their school side also

Kevvy is just giving him a good chance to stake a claim.

I think Billy wearing the 14 in round one should be paying about $1.20
i.e. can't see him getting the 6 from the start, but may well get a shot at some point in the season - we all know how Kevvy is happy to tinker with the halves combinations

Most people on Cowboys forums are suggesting that COTTER will start at lock and T'LOLOLOLOLO will start at prop (maybe even of the bench). Can't say I have any insight into whether this was true but was consistent across the board with no-one questioning that this was not the case

I read on the Manly forum that Davey should be a ball playing lock with Jake on the bench and if Davey stays injury free he's a smokey for Origin...

You have to filter through a lot crap to occasionally get some useful info on those forums

I don't share everyone's confidence that Bellamy is not going to play BSmith at hooker for significant chunks, particularly early in games. Of course, that would allow extra minutes for middles. But Storm have various other roleplayers eg Jordan Grant and Loreiro who might get on that bench in front of King.

Also, fairly sure Meaney will be 14, playing the bench back/extra floating support player role that Bellamy consistently uses.

Lewis and Eisenhuth are more edge players though aren’t they?

Anyway I’ll trust Beth take on Storm mins for their players.

Davey for Origin? Jurbo for Edge? That'll be a bit of the crap you have to filter through.

Davey isn't playing the Manly trial, don't know if he injured but the only ones not named are Walker/Harper (all stars), Crocker (minor injury), Jurbo (not sure) and Davey. Lawton is 9, Bullemor 12 and Keppie 13 in what is otherwise a full-strength side.
