NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 42 - Did Someone Say Aubussson :heart:

Having never actually see him play, I'll just make a mattnz-type claim and assert that once Te Whare gets a first grade start it will be his for the year

I think id want to have a look at him this week, they have a bye next week then if he is picked again would be a good cash out and a rd 13 number

He’s DPP too and decent buys. He seems to good to be true so probably is

Yeah handy cash out to play in WFB that round if you’re not convinced Drinky or Gutho are buys

Not sure if he will. Here is his highlights reel from last season, so you can see why there is interest.

I could double cow to get him with Bula and be able to also get Cleary this week, which will be a nice addition to the team. Very few guns actually gunning it, and byes are very friendly for him, with only missing the 2 Origin games the rest of the season. Have been impressed with his scoring without goal kicking, which he will get back. Will need both him and Hynes, so might as well grab him when the cash is there to do so, without tearing the team apart.

Sometimes you'll get a few tackles out of him as well to pad his score

Te Whare literally translates to The House which is a big selling point imo.

Looks like he works a sideline with Brenko Lee in the concreting business

Feelgood story of the year with the bloke making his debut at 37

Current situation after trades this week is

Robson
JDB/Murray/Hopgood
H.Young/Hosking
Hynes/DCE
Lemuelu/Bird
Manu/AFP/Bula

Ford/Luke/Katoa/Blore

Granville/ITT/Trindall/Talau

210K ITB with 19 trades remaining

Sutton, Pele and F Brown are to return. Minutes will reduce or back in reserve grade.

with the bye coming up might be worth giving him a week and then going with Oloaupo instead then get Te Whare in 2 weeks.

On the face of it Alamoti -> Te Whare seems like a nice cashdown, until I remembered the Dolphins have the bye next week and it'd leave me a centre short with both Lem and Te Whare out. Annoying.

Horsburgh is potentially the kind of player I miss every year.  So, just checking to see what I am missing:

What Minutes Will He Play and Who's Minutes Is He Getting :

2: What PPM will he Get?:

3: Putting it all together?:

TLDR:  To be worthwhile, Horse seems to need 10 more minutes than Elliot got as starting lock without much drop off in ppm. Why will get this?

Because matt wants it so happen.

I cant remember who came up with coin goat but they need some love

@Fortitude is who you're looking for. Just be gentle with him

Looks like a house tbh. Chonkiest CTR in a while

Here's what I learned from the Dolphins doco on Stan, where he as featured heavily
- O'Sullivan been watching him a long time (since Warriors day)
- rugby background, took time off for mental health reasons (assume during COVID)
- O'Sullivan says has all the skills (footy player rather than an athlete)
- Dolphins signed him very early to a dev deal, he played a full season of QRL last year while working as a groundsman
- highlight reel looks extremely hard to tackle
- Was Qld Cup CTR of the year (this wasn't on the doco, but on the Internets)

I can't go there because of byes (have 3 Dolphins already) but if he does get picked and you believe he's there on merit, definitely appears to have the talent to succeed

Happy Birthday for yesterday, MS! 30s are a great time, enjoy.

ALRIGHT LET'S GO VAL MENINGA!
