Round 13 Dream Teams
Looking at the best performances each week to determine the Team of the Week and using the player’s season totals to determine the overall Dream Team for 2016 on a week by week basis.
Round 13 Team of the Week:
Remember the Titan? Ryan James’ career is taking off and he’s on an upward spiral. After his personal best 20 NRLCEO points, he now has four double figure scores in this season alone. With 85 points total, he’s already blasted past his best ever season and we’re only half way through. A certain member of my league has a new favourite and wants to lock this lock in for life as a Jet.
The next best this week was Rabbits rake Cameron McInnes. After Damien Cook was predicted to take the #9 and have a huge season, it’s been McInnes who has taken it and run with it. He’s the fourth ranked hooker on NRLCEO this year behind Smith, Friend and Hodgson. This week is 15 points consisted off his second career DHW, a try, two line breaks and a line break assist.
The forwards really dominated this rain soaked round with Aidan Guerra (13), Jesse Bromwich (13), James Graham (12) and Sam Burgess (12) taking up the next highest scores alongside Cooper Cronk (12) and Shaun Johnson (12).
Here is the Team of the Week for Round 13:
1. Ben Barba (10)2. Kyle Feldt (11)3. Solomone Kata (8)4. Blake Ferguson (7)5. Tuimoala Lolohea (10)6. Shaun Johnson (12)7. Cooper Cronk (12)8. Jesse Bromwich (13)9. Cameron McInnes (15)10. James Graham (12)11. Ryan James (20)12. Aidan Guerra (13)13. Sam Burgess (12)
Note: points are based on tries (4), workhorses (4), double workhorses (8), try assists (2), line breaks (1), line break assists (1), metre eaters (2), double metre eaters (4), field goals (1), 40/20’s (1), sin bins (-2) and send offs (-4)
Overall Dream Team:
Each week we will accumulate the points for each player to come up with the Overall Dream Team for 2016.
We have a new NRLCEO MVP! James Graham is now top of the lot after hurtling past Anthony Milford. The big man now has 106 NRLCEO points from 13 rounds at an average of 8.1 per game. He has six double workhorses and five double metre eaters. His only attacking stats are two line break assists
Credit where credit is due, Anthony Milford was the first player of the year to reach the magical 100 NRLCEO point mark exactly half way through the season. He has raised the bat through 10 tries, 9 try assists, 9 line breaks, 11 line break assists, 9 metre eaters and 4 field goals. An amazing achievement and a legitimate number one draft pick for next year.
There are two new entries into the Dream Team this week too. BJ Leilua makes it into the centre spot for the first time this year. He and Jordan Rapana have been superb this year and now they are reunited in the best team of all – the NRLCEO Dream Team.
Lastly, Sam Burgess is back in the team after a week off. His dominant workhorse performances of late have been more regular than Rusty on the sideline. Justifying his top draft pick selections.
Here is the full Dream Team after thirteen rounds:
1. James Tedesco (81)
2. Jordan Rapana (83)
3. Joseph Leilua (61) – NEW
4. Bryson Goodwin (63)
5. Valentine Holmes (74)

10. Ryan James (85)
