Wests Tigers Fantasy Coach 2026

[Nutz]

Hey guys. I've got this year's fantasy coach up and running.
If you're interested in playing again this year just pop me a message and I'll give you the joining code.
I hope to see last years coaches have another crack as they will have a better idea and should give Ned Kelly a run for his money

 

[Shredder]

Im in

 

[Nutz]

Good stuff, we're building nicely.
You wont see any action in the league until rd 1 lockout. So in the meantime just fiddle building a team with unlimited changes.
I'm having trouble fielding a team because all my regulars are too expensive.

 

[Shredder]

I ended up stacking my bench with a lot of minimum wage guys Ive never heard of.

My team should be called "lack of depth" lol

Anybody should give me a run for my money.
Being very tech unsavy what do I do to message you?

@Ned Kelly
You were our best last year Ned, people are going to be gunning for you ha ha.

 

[Ned Kelly]

See you soon mate. We haven't heard from you, are you ok Ned?

I'm in.
I'm guessing you are LU Cup and Shredder is Big Jeff and while I recognize WestWin I have forgotten who he is on this forum.
The first challenge is for people to try and guess who is Ned's Lads coach.

 

[Ned Kelly]

Usually during the season I do a hell of a lot of panic changes.
I started early this time. I had a team I was happy with...made a change..that meant I had to make another change. Anyway that went on and on now I have a team that barely resembles what I started with and I have no idea of who was in that team.

Its Wests Tigers LU Cup.
I think Westwin is Tiger05. We'll get a list of players in this thread later when we have more players mate.

Just don't write members real names in posts Ned for their privacy reasons.

I actually changed my name in NRL fantasy for privacy reasons and to make it easier for people to know who I am in this forum.

 

[Nutz]

Our league is full, 20 players.
Your head 2 head opponents are listed.
It's great to see some tiger supporters in there this year.
Good luck coaches

 

[Ned Kelly]

Well done Nutz. Looks like a good cross section. Should be fun.

I am no chance for any of that but can't wait until kick off.
Still making changes every second day and I'm hoping to break the habit of panic changes by round 2.

Your not on your Pat Malone Ned.
I've restarted my team 3 times now.
It would be interesting to know what the Panthers players scored collectively in some of their grandfinal wins.
I mean if you had all their players, what would be the final FC points? (I know our comp finishes before then but it would be an interesting exercise)

I used to contemplate making my team 100% Tigers just to see how that would go. Then I realised I didn't need a crystal ball to see the outcome.

For the coaches who maybe a bit perplexed about lockouts this may help.
Because rd 1 is a split round, NRL Fantasy utilizes a "Rolling Lockout" meaning players are locked into your team only at the time their specific match begins.
