The Fantasy King: Round 17
By Mick Adams Another weekend of fantasy football done and dusted. Nathan Hindmarsh continued to rage against the dying of the light with yet another massive points haul, but elsewhere the story was all about this year’s emerging crop. With this in mind, this week I’m going to ignore the centuries posted by Mateo and […]
The Fantasy King: Round 15
By Mick Adams And so ends another funny old round of fantasy football. No Gallen, no Parker and the most unlikely top 5 point scorers you could imagine, with the unheralded Manly pair Dean Whare and Jorge Taufua taking out the quinella. It was a round which produced many questions and few answers, so let’s […]
The Fantasy King: Round 14
By Mink Adams In any normal fantasy competition, fourteen weeks in we'd all be right in the thick of it, agonising over every trade, checking up on projections and generally boring anyone within a Ricky Stuart cutout pass with details of how many points we would have scored if only we started the back up […]
The Fantasy King: Round 12
By Mick Adams And so it’s goodbye and good riddance to Round 12, one of the more bizarre weekends of fantasy football, even by the lofty standards already set this year. To put it into context, the Supercoach top scorer this week scored sixty points less than last week’s winner, despite having two extra games […]
The Fantasy King: Round 8
By Mick Adams And so, after eight rounds we are almost a third of the way through the season, and the fantasy picture has yet to return to any sort of normality. My Round Eight score was ruined by the late scratchings of Shaun Johnson and Bronson Harrison, while others suffered the same fate with […]
The Fantasy King: Round 7
By Mick Adams Well, this past weekend of footy has confirmed the suspicions I’ve been harbouring for the last few weeks: I’m officially cursed. The Warriors ran rampant over Souths but big useless Feleti barely broke single digits. In that same game Isaac Luke only managed half his average despite playing the full 80. Later that […]

The Fantasy King: THE RETURN OF THE KING
By Mick Adams He’s back. The Twitterverse was buzzing on Thursday last week with the news that the REAL fantasy king, Mr Corey Parker, was returning to the field. Starting on the bench, Parker managed a score that would be sensational from any other player, but a little below par from him. This is great […]
The Fantasy King: Round 5
By Mick Adams It was not a good day to be an Englishman on Sunday, Gareth Ellis and Sam Burgess both going down in the Souths – Tigers clash, in another huge blow for fantasy players. Last weekend’s injury/suspension reprieve didn’t last long, and once again there will be many players scrambling to put together […]
The Fantasy King: Round 4
By Mick Adams After a month of injuries, suspensions and general upheaval, the fantasy scene returned to some kind of normality in Round 4. Bad news for owners of Nathan Smith and Jharal Yow Yeh, but most fantasy players should have emerged from the weekend relatively unscathed, and with a decent score at last. It […]
