NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 49 - Origin is nearly here, it's about time some QLD players got suspended

Taafe benched with Niko starting FB too. Just read an article about it on the SMH

If Hastings is out, it'll be a moot point and I'll make the trade.

I'll probably wait til Roosters team lists to decide anyway in case there's some late silly buggers with Butcher, but does anyone want to play tie-breaker here?

Fucks sake. Well, at least he probably can't score any worse off the bench. Low bar to clear, admittedly.

Worth double-cowing this week? Already locked in Tuilagi to Kiraz, worth going Taaffe to Savage too with that news? Taaffe is out either way next week so might be worth doing before he loses any cash.

TU Robson
TD Mahoney

I'm holding Grant, so this will end up being final 17 bench hooker

Niko averages 45 in the number 1 jersey.

That single game sample size was in 2017 though

JD finally realised what a trap Taaffe is a few weeks after Fantasy coaches realised

I'm doing that with Ramsey instead of Savage, but I'm a sucker for a good POD

If he holds his spot then should do alright. Hadn’t realised he’s only started at the back 3 times

Nikorima FB Taaffe bench

Absurd

I have to say watching Jayden Campbell on that NRL Fantasy 5 players to look at vid makes you feel like a big game is definitely coming

I just don't think Savage is worth jumping on especially at 27 BE plus Ricky could lose interest in him at FB next week

How did he go from 16 in Rd 3 to back to back 62 scores? Is the 13 TBs 266 run metres in one game sustainable? Just using Sexton logic

How Taaffe lasted this long at FB?

Pretty sure JD isn't playing fantasy mate.

Or are you saying you're a better coach than JD?

Yeah he hasn't had many games back there, and in his game last week he looked hugely improved in terms of effort and involvement, he was always pushing up in support

For the draft folks.. Brooks, Simpkin and Laurie good to go

I don’t think anyones looking to trade him in are they, was just saying he has a style that looks like it can rack up points. Return of the crab and slapsies
