Fullback (excluding DPP)

Tom Trbojevic posted another 100+ score on the weekend all but validating that he is feeling confident with the hammy.

He has been traded in by over 8000 Supercoaches making him and James Tedesco the main fullbacks options for the top 10% heading into the run home.

CTW

Casey McLean has flown into the top 10 most-owned CTWs with Penrith’s injury crisis in the outside backs giving the 18-year-old an opportunity to potentially play out the rest of the regular season.

He is the 2nd most traded-in player this week, ahead of Turbo, with most Supercoaches trading out Sharpe and Talagi to bring him in.

Touted as a season keeper, Kayal Iro has dropped in ownership down 5% for the top 1% of Supercoaches with McLean and Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow being the top replacements.

5/8

Dylan Brown has dropped in ownership off the back of the season-ending injury of Mitchell Moses. He seemed to put up decent scores without Mitch, but the top 10% of Supercoaches have better options to turn to.

Jayden Campbell was disappointing on a flat track against Manly scoring 42 points, which wasn’t too bad considering his score at half-time… Anyway, Supercoaches have been quick to flick the Titans five-eighth off the back of his performance.

Daine Laurie has been a popular buy with his dual FLB | 5/8 status. He is the 9th most traded-in player and has two 100+ scores in the 4 games he has played the full 80 mins.

HLF

Much like Turbo, Nathan Cleary showed his hamstring is no worry punching out 109 in his return game. It has led to over 20,000 Supercoaches trading him in.

Hughes, Walker and Hynes are all on the chopping block this week to pave way for the Prince of Penrith.

2RF

Angus Crichton has been brought back into a lot of sides this week after proving his scoring ability with 74 points in a losing side against the Storm in Melbourne.

Kai Pearce-Paul and Max Plath are on the chopping block with both being the most traded-out for the top 10% in the 2RF category. They have made way for Crichton.

Olakau’atu owners are copping his 2-week suspension by sticking with the forward, deep down they probably regret the trade.

FRF

Addin Fonua-Blake returned to form against the Raiders scoring a try and raising the bat with 103 points. This has seen his stocks rise 7% across the top 1% of Supercoaches, particularly with the woeful Tigers next up for the Warriors.

Terrell May was expected big minutes with JWH suspended however he only played 46 mins running for just 86 metres to score half of AFB’s score. His ownership has dropped 11% for the top 1% of Supercoaches.

HOK

Harry Grant has been the big mover for the hooker category with Melbourne’s lethal spine likely to play together against the bottom-placed Eels.
