NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 28 - My name is Marcelo Montoya, you killed my shoulder, prepare for a homophobic slur

Actual centres, who are the options? Lomax is off form, Ramien isn't really an Origin-type centre, Staggs I think could be great but don't think he'll be picked. Or maybe he brings in Wighton or Guth in a "pick seven fullbacks" policy. Basically, Crichton is at least a chance.

Freddie said if Latrell isn't fit Burton, Crichton and Best are the fron runners. I don't see why Staggs and Lomax shouldn't be in that conversation

If he was a Queenslander, they'd just wait until the week before origin, and hand down the suspension then

Jeez they must have lucked on to a bloody good initial squad. They will be hard to chase if they keep that up when all those trades come in handy mid to back end of the season

Happy to dodge a bullet and go Arrow + Sexton to Grant + Cotter ($0K left).

Cotter was getting low 40s minutes and scoring before the game went to overtime. Not seeing him as a buy at almost $600k.

If you don't have him though, every week you're missing him from now puts him in that awkward spot between now and Origin. If I didn't have him, latest I would bring him in is next week.

I always find the ‘last game’ argument a bit tiresome. I don’t think the game runs off a script that is identical each week. One break here or there changes things drastically for the better.
A dropped ball changes it the other way.  

Just because someone scored 40 one week doesn’t mean they will next week.

Just a thought, also I need a MID this week so he is on the list

In the games where he got bigger minutes, it was due to MID injuries. This is the first game without injuries, so is the most relevant to actual expected minutes.

If Crichton gets his EDG spot back this week, he doesn't cost much more.
