NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 8 - Hopgod!

4/202

Take that.

Loiero & Katoa - both passed the 40 mark so happy with that
Hodgson - happy for him to sit in the hooker spot scoring 40-45 til his bye/til I trade him up
Hopgood - :O
Warbrick - solid base stats though I was hoping for similar MG to Coates. Didn't go looking for work as much as I would've liked til the end of the game. 2x TO big bonus and happy with his score.

Doorey - didn't play him and 31 probably about what was expected early on, hopefully he earns some cash and scores better as he ups his fitness.

5/245

Doubt when Sims is available. Keep in mind all the injuries during the game too.

Good game of footy to start the year

I would’ve used the challenge when Parra did too, but they had like two penalties on that last play before extra time.

Shows how crazy Penriths stocks are, Hopgood could barely get a game for them last year and looked like a rep player out there. They need to give him a 10-15 min spell in future tho.

I'll take 6/302, no Grant, bloody Bellyache putting two utilities on the bench...should have played the long game. No matter I'll have Grant after Origin.

Sims probably takes some minutes off him

I chickened out. Left the VC on him… wouldn’t be upset about a late withdrawal of the (C)hin…

Both teams a bit rusty, but great effort. Sucks to lose

They barely went his side especially on attack

4/234 (Grant, Hopgoat, Katoa & Warbrick). Not a bad start.

Someone said they put the C on Hoppy - well played!

Yeah he got no ball in attack and still got to 29, I'll take that any day of the week. All he needs is one game with attack and that'll get the rises going quick.

Not many lock minutes available for Matterson, I see some EDG minutes in his future.

5/279

Was extremely worried having a decent chunk of players in the 1st game. Doorey in the NPRs with a 31 will kick the price gains on nicely.

Not owning him the last couple of months last year was hard watching. Wasn't going to make that mistake again. You can't have them all though.

I'm seeing

Carty 55
Loiero 45
Katoa 42
Doorey 31

Loiero in my 17 and Doorey NPRs. Couldn't afford Uto to Katoa as a last minute trade, but not too bothered by that. I looked at Carty, thought JS wasn't great, but should ride the prices rises for awhile after that.

Perfect ending with Grant icing the cake. Was getting annoyed at Meaney's involvement after I last minute traded him to EButcher for team balance.

I reckon Matto will take 20 off mid and 20 off an edge.

Which is fine because Cartwright should have made enough cash by then to sell off.
