Nathan Cleary

He’s the best HLF available in Mixer now that Nicho Hynes isn’t available. In his first game back from his five-game suspension, the Penrith No.7 hit 93 points with under 13 percent of teams having selected him that week. Cleary will be involved in everything on Saturday night whether the Panthers win or lose, and is a great option in Mixer. 

The Roosters’ centres

Jessica Sergis and Isabelle Kelly are the two top centres in Mixer, averaging 50.6 and 50.2 points per game this year respectively, putting them ahead of Will Penisini who averages 44. The star duo have been in fine form this year and are racking up some big attacking stats as part of a high-performing Roosters side. The Tricolours take on the Eels this week who they beat 38-16 in round 1, with Kelly hitting 85 points in that game, and there will be an opportunity for both to pick up some big attacking numbers. Having either of these two as your CTR this week is a good bet.

Reece Robson

In his last game back in Finals Week 1, Robson made 59 tackles without a single miss in the Cowboys’ golden point win over the Sharks. His base stats are huge and he loses very few through demerits, which means it’s unlikely he will hit a score under 50, and if he can get a couple of attacking stats on top of that he can easily achieve a mid-50s to low-60s score this weekend.

Samantha Bremner                          

She is having a brilliant season and will likely be better for having had a break in round 5 when coach John Strange opted to rest her. Bremner's 59.5 point average this year puts her head of all other WFB options in Mixer, and she is well placed to have some dynamic stats against the Eels.
