Fullback (excluding DPP)

After his Origin omission, it is not a shock to see James Tedesco ownership skyrocket WoW with 39% of the top 1% trading him in.

Latrell Mitchell and Scott Drinkwater have been the players to make way for Teddy down 8% and 19% in ownership across the top 10% of Supercoaches.

Ryan Papenhuyzen has also gained interest with his return to Storm #1 jersey up 6% across the top 10% of Supercoaches.

CTW

In an interesting trend, the top 6 owned CTW players have seen declines in ownership across the top 10% of Supercoaches.

Headlining the decline is Reuben Garrick down 7% WoW, which is somewhat understandable following his HIA, and Blaize Talagi down 11%, which is more interesting considering his job security is fairly stable.

5/8

Not too many fires for Supercoaches in the five-eighth category with minimal movements made.

Lachlan Galvin may be back for Round 16, however, owners are still making way for him with 3% of the top 1% of Supercoaches trading him out and picking up new Titans 5/8 Jayden Campbell who is keeping Tanah Boyd on the reserve list.

HLF

Jahrome Hughes continues to grow in popularity up a further 9% in ownership across the top 1% of Supercoaches.

2RF

Eliesa Katoa had another spike in ownership up 5% across the top 10% of Supercoaches, and why not when he has scored a try in 4 of his last 5 starts for Melbourne.

Interestingly, Angus Crichton has gained some interest from the top 5% of Supercoaches with a 4% uplift in ownership WoW despite his Origin selection.

FRF

Terrell May should get another influx in minutes this week with Collins and Leniu out, but the top 1% have run out of patience with him dropping 4% in ownership.

Addin Fonua-Blake‘s stocks have risen up 9% WoW as he prepares for a tasty fixture against the Titans where he scored a double last time they met earlier in the year.

HOK

Apisai Koroisau had a slight increase in ownership WoW as he scored well and has great bye coverage upcoming.

Nearly 4% of the top 1% of Supercoaches have let go of Jayden Brailey after he was benched for the 2nd straight week against Penrith.
