SL30 | Fantasy Ins and Outs for Birthday Round (Round 6)
6 hrs
Round 5 of the Betfred Super League more than delivered after a week away.
What does all that mean for your Fantasy side ahead of Birthday Round? Let’s delve into who’s returning to the action and who’ll be missing out as Super League turns 30 in Round 6!
Don’t forget you can build your Fantasy team here!
Ins:
Matty Ashton (£160k)
The Wolves’ winger is back! After nearly a year out with both an MCL & ACL injury Ashton announced his return to action in style, racking up 79 Fantasy points as Warrington took Castleford to the cleaners on Saturday.
Fantasy players will be relieved the speedster is back where he belongs and playing his best rugby.
Looking for a new winger who can consistently score points for your side? Ashton is your man, so get him in your side today!
Jayden Nikorima (£120k)
The Bulls’ new number six became an instant fan favourite for the Odsal faithful with his performance against the Giants at the weekend! He scored 84 Fantasy points on his debut, scoring debut two tries and assisting another.
Priced cheaper than other alternatives, Nikorima could be the ideal halfback for any side if he keeps up the dazzling displays like that one on Saturday night.
Outs:
Cade Cust (£120k)
The Black & Whites hooker picked up a one-match suspension in his side’s win against the Rhinos on Sunday for late contact on a passer. He’ll miss out on their clash with the Dragons on Sunday.
FC Head Coach Cartwright will be scratching his head as to who will play at hooker with Turkish international Yusuf Aydin also out with an ankle injury.
Aidan Sezer (£140k)
Hull FC’s captain hasn’t had the best of starts to the season, and things have got even worse for the scrum-half as he sustained a pectoral injury during training in the build up to their clash with the Rhinos on Sunday.
It is suspected that Sezer will be out of action for at least six weeks. That's a double blow for the Black & Whites!
George Whitby (£100k)
The young Saints half-back was called upon by Paul Rowley as St Helens continue to manage their own injury crisis.
Unfortunately for Whitby he was taken off during their victory over Toulouse on Saturday night, and it was later confirmed he failed a HIA.
Whitby’s failed HIA means he’ll miss out on the Saints’ trip to East Hull as the Red V take on the Robins on Friday night.
Maybe it's best to place Whitby on the bench for now if you've already got him in your Fantasy side!
Don't miss the deadline!
Players have until 6pm on Thursday 26 March to make any changes to your teams!
