NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 39 - How big is yours?

Liverpool_Bulldog wrote:Tempted to take a punt on Keary. Hoping he somehow finds the form that got him off to a flier last season before the injury.

Had a closer look at him and it seems like he's just a little bit down everywhere. Base in 2021 was 38.6 vs 33.6 this year (KM basically identical, but he's making 20 less metres and 3 less tackles on average this year).

Big one though is that last year he had 7 TAs, 2 LBs, 3 LBAs, 4 TBs, and 2 TO tackles in 3 games, this year that's 6 TAs, 1 LB, 2 LBAs, 4 TBs, and 1 TO tackle in 8 games.

Would need to hit another purple patch in attack to be relevant probably, which is obviously very possible.

Here's some player movement info to get you through the day. 

WT: Aikten Looking likely. Jackson Topine could be a mid season signing. Matt Doorey also being discussed for 23. 

Broncos: Herbie won't be leaving Brisbane. Already known but is deciding between dolphins and Broncos. Cobbo looks like he's staying put. 

Dolphins: Reece Walsh will be there next season (most already know this) 

Raiders: CNK has been made available by his agent. Bulldogs have made enquiries.

Can relate. Was watching a raiders game a little while back and the fox graphics under the score showed Elliot Off Whitehead On. I was more confused than I should have been but may have been six tin Saturday.

Yeah definitely a possibility I’ll probably play it safe though and grab Koula and a gun though so yeah, maybe he’s an option next week if he can put another decent game together

Tom Trbojevic on track to return for Manly on Saturday, got through training today with no concerns. 

Story on @AAPSport

Meanwhile his brother Ben lucky to join him and make it a trio of Trbojevics, surviving a near heart attack when the media wall collapsed behind him today.

Aitken and Ipap is awesome. Great to finally start seeing some signings that I'm excited about

Is Aitken going there to play 2rf or Ctr?

yeah good shout, roosters will come good at some point

Bad all season but get free points against teams like Warriors with rubbish ref and bunker calls because they're the Roosters.

Would depend on the Tuilagi to cowboys rumours I'd say. The way Aitken has been playing and with Douiei possibly playing centre I'd have trouble playing Aitken there.

Another I reckon you'd like is when Manly are home to the Warriors and still yet to score.

MAN O WAR

I thought he signed to the Sea Eagles ?

Right you are. No way Aitken is playing centre unless injuries force it I guess.

It seems one Jarrad Croker will make his return this week. Not sure if he or Schneider will kick but I’d guess Croker.

On A.Elliott, it could pay off but too much risk for me with Whitehead returning.

Really want Klemmer but Josh Jackson instead is another bye round player and would have enough for Leo>Elliot punt

@Chewie - 3 years ago today. Vale Peter

Are you ordering the 60min Jackson or the 80min version?

I can see the games he didn't play 80 he job shared with TPJ when TPJ was returning from injury
Though they both played pretty much 80 the 3 games leading into his covid break.
I would assume the last 3 games is the norm but it depends on what coach Gould wants
