. Shouldn't have fiddled around and switched after I had the R on him for the majority of the past week/fortnight but ah well hopefully Sivo can go close.

Just catching up, and it looks like I have a long way to catch up!
331/6+C (Tedesco)
I set a team about 4 weeks ago. I had a busy week and checked in on Thursday and saw I had 7 players without a green light, so replaced them based on ownership % with green lights with no time for research!
Maybe I just wanted to give you all a head start!
On a brighter note, I have Keighran ... pity he is on my bench!!

If that is the case I've found this website for live scores. https://nrlsupercoachlive.com/
I know Keighran’s had a good score this week but if we break it down we can see roughly what his base points should look like week to week.
Try: 17 points
Goals kicked: 24 points (22 when you take the one he missed off)
Line breaks: 20 points
Tackle breaks: 10 points
Linebreak assist: 7
Forced dropouts: 6 points
Tackles: 7
Hitups over 8m: 4 points
71 points from attacking stats out of 86. Whilst halves are usually good for attacking stats, it’s a bit of a worry if the warriors face better defensive threats. Blake green did a lot of the kicking throughout the game as predicted, so it’s fair to say keighran will have some lean weeks in attack where the warriors don’t do so well.
Now if we look at the base stats which are hitups and tackles, this is where we worry for future games. The warriors completely dominated the bulldogs in their defence, which meant Keighran was largely protected from defending much.
You can bet your bottom dollar that better offensive teams than the dogs (traditionally have been poor in last 2-3 seasons) will target the new half and cause a lot of problems for him. It will 100% mean more tackles but also missed tackles.
The main thing that worries me is that Keighran didn’t do a lot of the kicking and largely is relying on his own running of the ball, of which he only did twice. He ran the ball twice in a game where they completely dominated a team.
However, it’s not until round 5 that the warriors play a decent defensive team, so I think we can run the risk of sticking him in our 17 if there are a lack of options or like taking a punt.

Great analysis!
I agree with everything. Even with his amazing score, there is still a high chance I will keep him in NPRs for round 2.
If he does it all again I might change my mind.
Also, I gave some bad advice earlier. I said I do not like halves who don't get kick metres (in reference to Blake Green taking all the kicks and Keighran having very few). In SC kick metres are not counted anyway, so everybody take note of that and do not listen to me. My head is swimming in NRL Fantasy still and having trouble making the Supercoach leap at times.
