NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 62 - Tigers a top 8 team (for R17)

Averages have me at 511/10 this week. Expecting a sub 500 score though.

TU:Pole
TD:Cheese

I'm expecting #TeamDarkKnight to rise to the top this bye round. He has the advantage of trades in hand and can afford to burn some to make a play at top spot.
He is pretty pretty pretty good at this game

pretty obvious one really, TMM hadn't actually re-signed with us yet anyway (and is still a dev list player, i think?)

solid signing for warriors, really liked what he's done in the 1 this year for us, seems to be on the up.

Stefano uto only played 22 minutes on the weekend - does he work his way back to 'solid' game time? not sure what to make of Pole. I didn't see the Sunday games.

Getting Leo Thompson vibes without knowing a single thing about him (or even what he looks like)

Probably him or Palasia as a 'cash out' for me. Ultimately its position 21 so its no big deal, but here we are. I almost tempted to take a punt on Willison.

Looking at the four 220k options (Rodwell, Moale, Hosking, Matamua) in terms of looping potential:

Broncos:

Thursday x 3
3rd Saturday game x 3
2nd Saturday game x 1
2nd Friday game x 1

Tigers:

Sunday x 5
3rd Saturday game x 2
2nd Saturday game x 1

Eels:

Thursday x 3
2nd Friday game x 4
1st Saturday game x 1

Rabbitohs:

Thursday x 1
2nd Friday game x 2
3rd Saturday game x 2
2nd Sunday game x 1
2nd Saturday game x 1
1st Saturday game x 1

Rodwell and Hosking basically non-starters from a looping POV with so many Thursday games. Matamua is easily the best with 5 Sunday games and every game coming in the second half of the round, and Moale may be the best compromise between maybe sticking around in the 17 as an emergency scorer and still being a semi-useful loop if not.

Any Tigers fans know much about Matamua?

Kodi Nikorima > Walsh sounds heaps better IMHO

Better than nothing I guess, TMM has been good this year. Have heard Warriors fans suggesting we should try to keep Arthars too. TMM + Arthars for Walsh is still a big win for the Broncs, but we shouldn't leave negotiations empty-handed at least.

Interesting to see how they try to fit all of Metcalf/TMM/CNK/Volkman in.

1. TMM
2. Montoya/Arthars
3. Walker
4. CNK
5. DWZ
6. Volkman/Metcalf
7. Johnson

14. Volkman/Metcalf

Isn't too bad.

Probably play CNK at fullback and find another spot for TMM though.

Some decent ins for the Warriors next season

Barnett, Metcalf, CNK, Niukore, DWalker, TMM

It's our year...







(To not finish bottom 4. Maybe)

Pole was added mid round last week and so I couldn’t cash out Billy Smith to him to facilitate my other trades as my targets played in the first couple of games. Ended up having to cash Koula to Kennedy instead which I’m a bit gutted about.

Extra annoying that he went well and I’m not getting him at base price this week.

The response from FanHub “it’s all fine because he is in the system now”

I suspect their support team don’t actually play the game or understand how it works…

They seem to respond fairly quickly to requests to add players to the system if you let them know that an eligible player is missing. As an example, I let them know at about midday on Monday that Tigers player Austin Dias wasn't in the system. By 2 o'clock he was added. This would have probably been more useful before the round was played, rather than after it, but I only wanted him in the system so that he didn't fuck up my subsequent BE sheets


I suspect that if you send through a request for a player named in the 17 on TLT (that they've missed) they will add him to the system reasonably quickly. If the player is named outside of the 17, they may be less receptive

Yep DK looking good, strong pedigree, coming out of a good stable Fantasyfanatics after transferring over from Sportal team looking at a bold finish heading in to the run home Pretty Pretty Pretty Good chance the crowd will be on their feet coming into the straight.

Is anyone going to consider captaining anyone other than Hynes? POD play on captain iPap/Pap maybe going big?

Don't really read too much into this sort of thing usually, but Hynes only scored 45 against the Storm earlier in the year, his third-lowest score of the year.

Would be a big risk, I'm not ballsy enough to try it personally, but could pay off big-time assuming almost everyone captains him & your alternative goes big.

Without getting into much detail, you can still loop with early games by starting red dot in starting 13 position, so it’s probably whether you want a viable EMG or he’s going to score most points as only factor

Moses v WT is under consideration

The nerve of these fuckers!

You're all forgetting DK is up against me this week in the eliminator. Safe to say he better burn all 4 trades this week.
