🦅 Tolutau Koula | CTW | $665,600
🔫 Gun role
💥 Explosive runner
✅ Big upside
🗓️ Outstanding matchup
🌞 Sunshine on Four Pines
🛠️ Fullback workrate @ CTW
‼️My one and only this week‼️
As unfortunate as it is for Tom Trbojevic owners, his hamstring injury has opened the door here - and it’s a big opportunity. Koula shifts to fullback, a role he’s shown he can excel in, both historically & in short stints this season covering Turbo. The matchup this week against Parramatta, who are conceding the most points to fullbacks, only adds to it.
First of all, I’ve seen some talk in the Twitter-sphere that he’s a better buy at centre. I’ll be honest, I think that’s absolute nonsense. Fullback work-rate/B+P/upside available at CTW is as good as it gets. Look for his work rate to increase significantly in this and he now becomes a genuine threat to the defensive line across the park. Expect him to go looking for the ball mid-set, with a sharp increase in runs and involvement, bringing tackle busts and attacking upside with it.
That’s where this matchup gets interesting. On top of the expected workload increase, there’s the attacking aspect where I’m expecting him to be a focal point. I think he’ll be sweeping both sides, but predominantly left, and with five or six metres to wind up, Parramatta’s right edge looks particularly vulnerable. Guymer is a slower than average second rower, Moses is not immune to being exposed defensively, Penisini has that turnstile-ness about him, and Brian Kelly outside him is far from a recognised defender and somewhat out of position.
Now with Manly losing Turbo early last week but still going on to win big over the in form Cowboys, there’s confidence and motivation there among the Sea Eagles. They should be feeling good after a dreadful start to the season. Add on to that a sunny Sunday afternoon at Four Pines Park against an Eels side coming off an emotional win… There’s not going to be a better scene set for a player to go big this season. From there, the ball’s in Koula and Manly’s hands as to how big he goes.
Looking ahead, Yes, the Panthers matchup is tougher, but his base will still be fine. Then a weakened Broncos side the following week, with two-thirds of their team out opens things up again. The underrated factor here is (depending on Turbo return) a Titans matchup at home in first major bye week at Fullback. You get Eels again likely without Moses in third major bye week and maybe without Turbo so fullback again. Real captain material both of those rounds. There’s also not a period of the season you look at and think yeah he’s gotta go even if he’s back at centre.
I seriously think he’s a captain option this week. the ceiling is there in this role if you’re willing to roll the dice or if you’re pointing to make up ground.
When it comes to the 119 BE, we’ve just seen this last week. If you pass on an opportunity and a matchup like this, you might not miss out on a huge cash rise, but points wise you’ll be impacted massively. Anyone who missed Tedesco last week because of BE knows exactly what I mean. There’s plenty of money around this year, so sometimes it’s not about the number, it’s about the matchup and the upside.
Pretty excited about this one which scares me as I’ve out the mocker on a few this season. But it feels like the logic, the opportunity and the matchup are all there. Now it’s just up to Koula and Manly to cash in.
Happy ANZAC long weekend.
Lest We Forget.

@SCWhisperer Bringing lisati in to free up heaps of $$ and he eventually will play this year to make more $$
English

I’m seeing a lot of Herbie and Lisati trade in’s this week.
Herbie, who has an 87 Breakeven, taking on a Penrith side, off the back of a humiliating defeat, and a right edge who has only conceded 47.8 points per game this year with just the 1 score over 60.
And Lisati, who has no clear timeline on recovery, with also no guarantee he walks back and starts.
Just feels like 2 trades that absolutely are not needed this week in the current climate.
English

@NRL_SC_Addicts Personally I think Munster is about to go on a heater so your 5/8 is weak…
Very annoyed I didn’t go kiraz to Jenkins and mooney to twal last week, I hesitated 😢
Trades this week mooney to twal
Kiraz to sisagi

English


@NRL_SC_Addicts He got rested due to blowout IMO…
It’s a fine risk but I think personally he is a trade before origin not now.
English

@dyylllaaaannn Trading someone with lower minutes and would have scored 50s with no try
Trading in someone high base high minutes.?
English

@SCWhisperer Who are you trading him out for ? He is a good no matter the length - unless your desperate
English

Pour a drink out for the SuperCoaches who traded in Kiraz over a cheapie CTW “for the points” this week #NRLSuperCoach #NRL

@Deeaann0 @AmanTalksNRLSC Thoughts? Moved Atkinson to sanders
Next week would be when I get lisati or chan for flegler or Stewart

English

@dyylllaaaannn @AmanTalksNRLSC I love him as a player and if I knew he was getting all of de Belin’s 55 minutes, I would get him. But Dragons have so many middles I want to see the rotation for a few weeks first. Stewart’s PPM is astonishing.
English

@Deeaann0 @AmanTalksNRLSC I’m tossed between Hamish Stewart which leaves me 10k or lower down to Joe chan and have 120k in bank
English


@dyylllaaaannn @AmanTalksNRLSC And yeah I’m high on Luki. That opening draw is dreamy — he just needs to stay fit.
English

@Deeaann0 @AmanTalksNRLSC Would you say this is an improvement or just a thought… I have just done it and it isn’t to bad. I do have worries with Chester job security however luki I like if he stays healthy
English

@dyylllaaaannn @AmanTalksNRLSC Crichton/Trell to Chester and Hopgood to Luki/Stewart gets Sanders up to JC/Hynes/Val. Makasini and Faeamani are very playable in the early rounds with their draws as your CTW4. You could even go a conservative tacklebot middle forward like Carrigan in flex with the new scoring.
English

@dyylllaaaannn @AmanTalksNRLSC Drop one of your gun CTW’s and upgrade that flex. Solid team otherwise!
