NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 35 - Man U need to consider Joseph now

I’m not sure what happened last weekend but I’ve now got both Couchman and BMM in my side! Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse.

I’m hoping BMM’s week in ressies has turned him into something more useful than a red dot.

I'm going to wait a week and either get lucky with a good score from one whomever I decide to play out of Stone/AKP/Couchman or just take the points hit/potential value drop from trade outs.

ITT, Cartwright on the chopping block.

I still cant believe Eli Katoa is yet to dot down.
The guy scored 6 tries in his first season (13 games) and scored 4 in his 40 games since.

According to the internet, BMM played 80 in reserves. Also the other twin Couchman played 50 mins off the interchange. 

Seems like a clear sign that BMM is an 80 min player now and the first twin Couchman will play substantial bench minutes too

This is definitely the case for me, and it's helped me make better decisions (e.g. not chasing Hynes in round 5 because I would have needed to get trapped by Hands to do it).

I finished my degree at the end of last year (master of economic policy if you're curious) and I was often helping other people in econometrics units, which helped me do well in them.

Go with your guts I say... (and have a look at the Dragons bench)

1 Thing to note, Dragons fucked up there interchanges last week by starting Mbye. So they only had 7 for the game. With the extra interchange you probably JDB -> Couchman towards the end of the first half, like JDB has done pretty much his whole career.

BE of 56 means his price shouldn't get out of hand (watch him score 110 now), and I'll take the chance to see how the Roosters look IRL with him in that role. If he looks great and like he'll keep the spot, then it's still an easy trade next week when EKat is on the bye.

BMM's PPM is so shit that I don't think even 80 minutes would save him. He's also on the edge that I think the Roosters will attack more (the edge of Amone, BMM, Lomax and Feagai, all of whom are suspect in defence at best) so playing 80 just gives him more opportunity to miss tackles.

the 'talk' is literally fantasy players wanting it to happen.
