Following on from our Round One victory over the Penrith Panthers, NRL Fantasy coaches who had some Eels players in their side will be enjoying the price rises this week!
Eels back rower Marata Niukore was the highest fantasy scorer with 56 points thanks to a try, 12 runs for 133m, 27 tackles and four tackle breaks whilst hooker Reed Mahoney also scored well with 55 (one try, four tackle breaks and 30 tackles).
Despite Michael Jennings 10 minutes in the sin bin, the two tries saw Jennings also score 51 fantasy points whilst Mitch Moses scored 50 points.
Unfortunately an injury to popular Eels lock Nathan Brown saw the hard working forward score just 11 points and will be sidelined until Round 14 due to injury.
