NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 27 - Drove the Chevy to the Levi

Stops Grant. Also Russell is my third FB. I blame Kris, he was supposed to be my back up CTW /FB but was suspended in Rd 1. Kini was my third FB and Russell really was not supposed to play. I did consider Russell to Stewart and Lussick to Uto. Cheese and Cotter could then become Grant and Iro if both get picked next week. Iro’s JS really is scaring me off now.

I think so too, following Drinkwater around.....I just don't have the extra dosh to stretch that far this week. Maybe he can come in for Kiraz at some point.

Here's how fullbacks have gone so far: scored (their season average against other teams)
Blake Taaffe 21 (31) - 1 try
Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow 59 (50) - 1 try
Scott Drinkwater 81 (51) - 2 tries
Tyrell Sloan 64 (35) - 3 tries

Titans have conceded  7 tries to fullbacks in 4 games so far (without even having to play the likes of Ponga, Turbo, Teddy, Walsh, Papenhuyzen, Mitchell)

How will speedy Chevy Stewart go?

Can you do five eighths please? If I buy Chester I have to play Strange at Centre this week

Some of Ur picks suggest picking Iro should be a cakewalk, a shoe in







*shitposting makes a comeback !

I'm going to level with ya, I have no idea who they are.

Jesus, GTFO ! I'm only 46, spritely to boot.

I actually have enough to just do Rapa to Hynes and leave the second trade this week. Means still playing Burbo, Levi, Kris, Strange, Shoes, Hutch, Salmon etc. but fuck it. Sitili stays as 18th man at this stage. Could swap him to Angus but one more week on Angus to have a look won't hurt. Could also get JC instead or even have enough to go Hutch to Smithies which is very tempting. Not sure yet. I think all the cheapies have potential but getting Talagi last week leaves me apprehensive.

Does Teddy miss 13/14/16 if Origin bound ?

New anthem for this year of NRL fantasy

I think Chevy and Iro are both traps. Both in teams where the coach likes his regular personal - the replacements are simply that. Can't see Iro keeping his spot once Talakai shifts back to centre, and can't see Chevy being a shoe in at FB - especially if Raiders were to lose a game or two.

Also, Hubner comes in to the Phins 17 with Flogler out.

By the numbers: I have 53% of my team playing in the first two games. One of whom should score over 50, three who could score 50+(minutes dependent for one of them), another in the mid 40s, and the remaining four will probably only top 30 at best.

Disagree on Chevy. Sticky has said he sees him as the long term fullback and that he was always going to get the starting spot eventually. This would check out with Rapana saying he doesn't want to play fullback long term.

Kris has been tried at fullback before and failed, I don't think Sticky will do it again.

But a really cheap starting FB has never failed before!

Ohhhhh, read the room mate....... geeez...


Just jibing, we need the alternative view so blame is not passed on.

Is Flegler confirmed out?
