Round 16 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 16 Team of the Week:

NRLCEO Team of the Week Round 16 2016

Our players of the week was dominant in his running, as we’ve come to expect. Jason Taumlolo (17) played the perfect game for a forward. He scored two rampaging meat pies, had a line break, just scraped in for a workhorse with 40 involvements, but most importantly racked up his eighth all time double metre eater which takes his metre eater tally to 37 over the last three seasons. The rule was custom made for him.

In some glittering form, Euan Aitken (14) has made his second Team of the Week in a row and his third for the year. In just his second season of first grade his half century (51) surpasses his 43 NRLCEO points from last year which he scored from 22 games. This year it has taken him just 13 games and has included five tries, two try assists, six line breaks, one line break assist and ten metre eaters. If you allow backs to score workhorses then he has also chipped in with a very handy four of them too!

Another Dragon is in fine NRLCEO form. Mitch Rein (13) has also made his second Team of the Week in a row. Always flying under the radar, he is now the second ranked hooker in the game, just one point behind the overall leader Cam Smith. He scored his fifth double workhorse for the year on the weekend and racked up his fourth ever metre eater to boot.

Not to be outdone, Sam Burgess (16) reminded us all what a dominant NRLCEO player he can be when he is on song. His two try effort and 58 involvement workhorse left him just two runs or tackles away from an elusive double-double. It would have been the first of his career having come withing six involvements twice before. Just for fun he also ran for 220 metres giving him a double metre eater. I’ll have to check with the Workhorse Watcher (@GeoffAdams81 on Twitter) but this may have been the first EVER NRLCEO double-double-double had he made it.

Overall Dream Team:

NRLCEO Dream Team Round 16 2016

Each week we will accumulate the points for each player to come up with the Overall Dream Team for 2016.

It was a very quiet week for our Dream Team with only Ryan James (11) and Sam Burgess (16) making the team of the week and therefore progressing well up the overall rankings.

James is having a monster year – easily his best season of all time! He has now moved up into second ahead of Anthony Milford (113) but behind James Graham (118) on the overall point scoring. With seven tries already this year and sixteen workhorses you wouldn’t put it past him to finish as NRLCEO MVP! But no one would have predicted him to even be top ten pre-draft.

Sam Burgess is also on the charge after his second highest scoring performance of all time. He’s only scored a donut once this year and is averaging a massive seven points per game.

There are two new entries returning to the Dream Team this week. Tohu Harris (83) returns to his place in the Dream Team after a few weeks out and Moses Mbye (80) is back in the team for the first time since Round 6.

It looks to be a two horse race for the next NRLCEO century with both James Tedesco (93) and Sam Burgess (94) in the nervous nineties and within striking distance in Round 17.

 

Here is the full Dream Team after sixteen rounds:

1. James Tedesco (93)
2. Jordan Rapana (87)

A Founder of NRLCEO. Jamie spends far more time on running the site than his own team and is therefore a perennial struggler, much to the delight of his mates. He is a former Bears, now Raiders tragic. A rangy lock who avoided running the ball at all costs, he once tackled (flopped on) John Hopoate. Web geek by day, web geek by night.
