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

mickspicks wrote: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.

Do you have alternative options you could suggest? What is your gameplan moving forward, waiting for another Galvin to come along?

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?

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.

As a Tigers fan this is great news. As a fantasy issue it means SJ comes in this week!

It probably depends how your cows have performed, or if you have other players who have reached their peak and you can downgrade accordingly. Eg. I've done Elliot to CNK this week. I was fortunate to get some cash gen from Elliot. Also have the likes of Seyfarth.

I'm not saying Chevy or Iro are the wrong choice. I brought in Talagi the other week and I probably cannot afford to take a gamble on another cheapie in the WFB/CTR position.

I was considering SJ instead of Hynes until heard about non contact training this week. Probably still kills it

" Lower leg soreness prevented Shaun Johnson from training on Tuesday, but he is expected to return to action on Thursday, with coach Andrew Webster saying “all indications are that he’ll be fine” to take on the Sea Eagles on Saturday."

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

this is pretty meaningless tbh. kid is 18. getting the starting spot eventually might not be for another two years. there are more 18 and 19 year olds that come in, have a couple of games, and go back to cup for more experience than there are Galvins (who so far has still only had three games)

if ricky was ready to go all in on chevy he would have already been playing fb. not just getting a run now because of injury.

i dont know what will happen but there is just as much risk there as Iro and every other kid that comes along (talagi??)

fwiw i've swayed back to undecided between IRO and CHEVY
