NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 59 - Who let the Dogs into the winner's circle

Will be watching Latrell with a keen eye this weekend. Looks fit and fired up. POD option for a WFB 3.

No NRL player has ever made it in the NFL.

Mad to consider it.

Who wants to be a kicker, 30 seconds of game time. A whole career of 5 minutes over 10 years.

yeah but I can get that on onlyfans. Not the point is it.

with Munster injured, I am considering trading him, thoughts?

Reasons to hold:

* I only have 6+4 trades left before using any this week, so I need to make them count
* Munster is the best fantasy player available for the 2nd HLF spot (since most teams have Hynes at WFB)
* My current trades are Tago and Koula to Papy and Kennedy, so I can still get Papy even if I keep Munster.


Reasons to sell:
* Munster is out 2-4 weeks apparently, which would mean he at best misses round 16, plays Origin 3 and then likely gets rested in round 18, or at worst misses round 16, Origin, then round 18 and 19
* I can trade Munster down to Hughes and still afford Tago to Papy, meaning I have Hughes there to play round 16-19, so if Munster is out 4 weeks then Hughes plays 4 extra games. Dylan Brown is another option here for the same reason.

Papen coming off double leg injury and history of injuries on +50 BE is not coming into my team first game back. I want to see how he goes

Papy is a 100% long-term gun if he's fit, but is going to be an injury risk for the rest of the season. Scouting him for a game doesn't change that, it's always going to be the same decision.

Reason I'll be waiting for a week is to see whether he takes the goal kicks or if Meaney is still doing it. That's 8-10 points a week right there with the Storm and changes the dynamics of the equation from definitely to maybe.

With the lengths American talent identification go to, they probably are already aware of Burton's left boot.

No. Changed when changed to current 21 team format and autosub changes. That was about 5 seasons ago. Someone got DPP after 1 game several seasons ago because they deemed was taking over long term injured spot

Bulldogs outside back that won't make my 17 and price knocking on the door of 500k. Probably the best option left in my squad to turn into a genuine gun

Kiraz will do what every young ctr/wfb does and put up some low scores in quiet games.

Wait so Tago didn't keep scoring 50+ every week?

Talakai didnt average 70+ ? lol

I'd be holding him based on some more news (which could be a pipedream because...The Storm) but also because trades are at a premium for you and if you can field a team without him on the park you should probably give it at least a week or two.

Forget the 4 trades coming after 19, they are there to cover injury/resting over the last 6 rounds of the season (don't believe that you won't need to use them for that)....so you have 6 trades left to get your team right.

If you think these trades will help you do that then go for it....if you have ambitions of making another couple of trades down the track then have another think about it.

Not that keen on Aitken in a struggling Warriors outfit.

He scored 47 in 70-10 loss to Storm. Not sure what playing for struggling team has to do with some player's fantasy scoring ability.

Are Warriors struggling much more now than they were at the start of the year?

Big homecoming game against the Tigers at Mt Smart this weekend....could give them a boost.

I just hope Aitken back named 2nd row
