Social NZ Warriors NRL Fantasy Competition 2025

Purdue is looking like the dud cheapie here. But it might be because centers tend to do badly when there getting thrashed. Also vs tackle break machines...

Purdue looks a complete plodder.

There was suggestion Laybutt will come back and replace Vaiela. Not after tonight.

NRL Physio
Kulikefu Finefeuiaki came from the field to undergo a HIA tonight - which he failed.

Highly likely to miss the Dolphins Round 2 game in 6 days time with the NRL’s 11 day stand down period for concussion.

Purdue 15 points - his BE was 19

Jazz was a let down for me, although the way Manly ran through the Cows in that first half he essentially had no points as a dummy half because he didn't need to make any tackles.

718 with 3 players to come, no idea if that's good or shit for this year

I take it you didn't watch the game?

718 it is decent but not top drawer.

I am ranked 99 000th out of 188 000 fantasy players with 657 points with three players to come.
My goal was to come top 20 000 but it is early days yet. Last year I came 42 000.
You can check your ranking Tookey?

As far as our comp goes of our 20 players you will be able to see your ranking amongst us too. I am ranked 18th out of 20.

No. But I fell asleep. I did see him get skinned and bull dozed by Oloakuato ??? Did things get even worse after that?

Incidently I was posting his 15 points to indite him not defend him.

Apologies I thought you were suggesting he performed close to expectation.

I think all uncapped rookies at the price have a 19 break even.

He simply did not look upto it. Meanwhile, Vaiela was a shining light. So, I think Purdue will be dropped.

I have some options...

Which ones mate? Managed to convince myself to go seyfath to save some money instead of gilbert thinking they'd be pretty similar score wise... Turns out that 25k in savings was worth 35 points.

Rabbitohs star Jack Wighton faces suspension over a tackle on Dolphins second-rower Kulikefu Finefeuiaki in Friday night's 16-14 win at CommBank Stadium.

Wighton was hit with two charges from the match - a Grade 2 Careless High Tackle for the shot on Finefeuiaki and Grade 1 Dangerous Contact for another tackle on Daniel Saifiti.

The former Kangaroos centre will be suspended for one match with an early plea or receive a two-match ban if he unsuccessfully challenges the high tackle charge at the judiciary.

The second charge carries a fine of $1000-to-$1500.

I feel like last year you had this problem too, the moment you got someone, they got injured. Unluggy uso.

What did people make of Ilongi? The commentators were rapping him but only 30 points despite getting a meat pie

@Makasene is right I watched the whole game on replay and Purdue has to go. i don't mind his offence but he was getting shake and baked out of his shoes in the centres marking up Turbo and DCE. I mean I know those two are the best in the world or close to it but every team has star players to cut you to shreds. This is the NRL. He has 2 games of centre behind him at NRL level. And no games at centre behind him at NSW cup level. I relied too much on the journalists and scouting reports rather than watching him myself.

How many trades are we restricted to this week gentlemen?

Two trades.

I think any fullback is going to score badly when you get put 50+ plus on you. Paps has had those games too. I would give him more time. He made BE

I think he'll be great when they are not getting smashed. He did good in the 2nd half. Pretty sure we've got 2, and ill probably use both of em. Need to use at least one with Munro being out for a long while.

Thanks @tyrael

That's right it is two trades. I remember now. That is pretty measly to make changes.

Bad luck. there was one play where Munro got a bit of space and he had real gas to burn. I started to think i need to acquire him and then he got injured.

For those chasing Haas - he is 825K and by my rudimentary calculations will go to approx $845 on tuesday

Question for the trainspotters

All the hookers I am tracking including elite ones scored in the 30s this week - last year top hookers easily scored 45 plus points

Have they adjusted any of the point scoring formulas this year?

Nah. I think most games were blow outs so hookers did less. Starling did well.
