The dust has settled on a big first week for Fantasy players, with good news for a handful of cash cows arriving in the Round 2 team lists.

Latest injury news and returns

Here's everything you need to know about Team List Tuesday from an NRL Fantasy point of view.

NRL Fantasy teams analysis: Round 2

Knights v Dolphins, Thursday at McDonald Jones Stadium

Knights: Kalyn Ponga (62 points) ended up being only the sixth-best WFB scorer for Round 1 in the end, but the role he played made it pretty clear that he's going to be a high performer every week. Dylan Lucas meanwhile is going to be an excellent CTR option and his ownership is creeping up towards 20 percent already. The inclusion of Adam Elliott this week potentially takes some points away from the likes of Leo Thompson (MID, $567k), but it shouldn't be of too much concern for owners.

Dolphins: Kulikefu Finefeuiaki misses this week with concussion, after showing promising signs first up with a 39 achieved in 54 minutes. Oryn Keeley (EDG, $347k) gets a start in his place, but he's a stay away given how far down the pecking order he actually is (remembering Connelly Lemuelu is also unavailable this week). Max Plath inflated his Round 1 score of 62 with a try and still looks like he won't be the HOK gun we'd hoped now that he's playing on an edge rather than in the middle. Tom Gilbert on the other hand is underpriced at $529k and comes with the added bonus of DPP status as both a MID and EDG.

Warriors v Sea Eagles, Friday at Go Media Stadium

Warriors: Chanel Harris-Tavita keeps a spot in the halves for now, with Te Maire Martin again in the reserves, and at $365k he has a bit of money to make if he stays in an 80-minute role for a few more games. Wayde Egan has keeper potential at HOK and comes off a score of 57 in Las Vegas, while James Fisher Harris and Mitchell Barnett should be keepers in the pack too.

Sea Eagles: It was a heck of a week to own Manly players last up, with eight of them achieving scores of 50 and above. While he ranked second in scoring behind Daly Cherry-Evans, Haumole Olakau'atu looks very much like being a premier EDG option after hitting 69 against the Cowboys. His edge partners Reuben Garrick and Jason Saab are going to have plenty more big games too, with Garrick a particularly attractive option at $594k, with the added benefit of dual WFB/CTR status. Be wary of Toafofoa Sipley and Ethan Bullemor though - both scored tries in Round 1 and are unlikely to be 50+ scores on a consistent basis.

Panthers v Roosters, Friday at CommBank Stadium

Panthers: Brian To'o returns from a hamstring injury and adds another potential candidate to the second tier of WFB scorers, while on the other wing Kiwi international Casey McLean (WFB/CTR, $409k) has kept his spot as well. Popular cheapie Jack Cole, who sits in almost 37 percent of teams, partners Nathan Cleary in the halves and has a break even of 12. Isaah Yeo is once again a set and forget captaincy option, while there's big value in Lindsay Smith at $623k if he can come close to matching last week's 67 on the regular.

Roosters: Money making CTRs Mark Nawaqanitawase and Robert Toia have kept their spots for the time being, but with the added threat of Billy Smith being included in the wider reserves for Round 2. With a break even of -12 Toia looks set to make some big money in coming weeks if he can remain in the starting side. Despite the presence of Zach Dockar-Clay on the bench, Connor Watson still played the full 80 minutes and hit 65 points, making him a nice pickup that can play both MID and HOK. After scoring 41 in his NRL debut last week Salesi Foketi (EDG, $256k) gets a start and now looks like being a money maker.

Dragons v Rabbitohs, Saturday at WIN Stadium

Dragons: While it would be wise not to read too much into Christian Tuipulotu's 74, which came after a hat-trick of tries, the Dragons had a couple of other eye-catching performances in Round 1. Valentine Holmes was strong on his way to 66 and will again be in the elite CTR conversation, while Toby Couchman is a potentially underpriced DPP option in the forwards at $547k, after running up 58 in the loss to the Bulldogs. The opening round also served as confirmation that both Damien Cook and Jacob Liddle are probably stay aways for the time being. Cook only had 46 and Liddle needed a miraculous try to get to 55.

Rabbitohs: Opening-week revelation Jamie Humphreys looks to have kept the halfback job, with new recruit Lewis Dodd listed among the reserves as he returns from suspension. Humphreys scored 75 last week, helped in large part to a ridiculous 732 kick metres which amounted to 24 points. With a break even of -6 he has a whole lot of money to make now if he can keep Dodd out of the No.7 jersey for a while. MID/EDG dual position player Jai Arrow had 42 of his 65 points last week come from tackles alone and is still a bit underpriced at $627k. Peter Mamouzelos and Lachlan Hubner both did OK as cash cows first up, achieving scores in the mid 30s, and have been named to start again at hooker and lock respectively.

Cowboys v Sharks, Saturday at Queensland Country Bank Stadium

Cowboys: Cash cow Thomas Duffy keeps his spot in the team after last week's nightmare result against Manly, but his owners should feel a little nervous by Jake Clifford's presence at 18th man. John Bateman (EDG, $607k) impressed with a 57 and could easily jump up into that 60-point range with the chance to register a couple more dynamic stats on a weekly basis. It's hard to judge the rest of the squad too negatively given the game they were part of last week, so if you own the likes of Jaxon Purdue, Scott Drinkwater or Reuben Cotter, don't panic just yet.

Sharks: A try on his way to scoring 68 points in 54 minutes on the park marked an impressive club debut for Addin Fonua-Blake, and he once again looks like being right in the mix as one of the best MIDS you can get your hands on. He also comes with the added bonus of not playing State of Origin later in the season. Blayke Brailey tackled his way to a 62, while Braydon Trindall ($513k) outscored his much pricier halves partner, Nicho Hynes, with a 42.

Raiders v Broncos, Saturday at GIO Stadium

Raiders: Cash cow Savelio Tamale keeps a place on the wing, but potentially only because Xavier Savage is suspended for Round 2. With a break even of five he should jump in value again this week. Corey Horsburgh is on track to be a cut-price keeper at MID after running up a 57 in Las Vegas, while Zac Hosking retains a starting role on the edge as well. Cheapie HOK Owen Pattie scored a point a minute in a 19-minute stint first up. While that won't be enough to make serious money, he's got that look of a player who at some stage will have a multiple line break / try performance.

Broncos: Payne Haas made it look easy on his way to a round-high 81, which came from just 49 minutes on the field. Fellow middle Patrick Carrigan was strong too on his way to a 63. HLF Adam Reynolds' score of 65 was good, but Brisbane aren't going to steamroll teams like they did the Roosters every week, so don't expect that to be his norm. A 54 from Gehamat Shibasaki (CTR, $334k) means he is in position to make some decent coin before Kotoni Staggs returns in a few weeks. There isn't much to say to those who endured Brendan Piakura's -9 last week, expect that it can almost certainly only get better in Round 2!

Eels v Wests Tigers, Sunday at CommBank Stadium

Eels: There was very little to like about Parra from a Fantasy point of view in Round 1, with a measly 47 from J'maine Hopgood their best score. Isaiah Iongi, who sits in over half of all teams, needed a try to get to 28 and now has a break even of 25 already. He lost 12 points to demerits last week, so improvement there will ensure his outlook brightens up. Much-discussed pre-season Fantasy prospect Charlie Guymer has been punted to the reserves.

Wests Tigers: Terrell May delivered big time with a 76 in his club debut and much like last year he looks like being Payne Haas Lite in Fantasy, with a much reduced $697k price tag to go with it. Lachlan Galvin dismissed fears his scoring would fall away next to Jarome Luai by putting up 50. Popular CTR target Jack Bird underwhelmed with 26 points, despite playing 52 minutes. The return of Jahream Bula and Api Koroisau sees Heath Mason and Tristan Hope drop out of the 17.

Bulldogs v Titans, Sunday at Belmore Sports Ground

Bulldogs: Expect Sitili Tupouniua to be one of this week's most traded in players following a 66 in Round 1. While it included two tries, which obviously won't happen very often, at $439k and with DPP status as both a MID and an EDG, there's some upside to the Tongan. The club's most popular Fantasy player, Stephen Crichton, had a bit of a shocker and managed just 12, due in part to giving away a penalty try, while EDG Jacob Preston underwhelmed a bit with 42, but is a definite keeper still.

Titans: The key takeaways from our first look at the Titans for the year include Keano Kini (WFB, $654k) getting the nod at fullback and AJ Brimson joining Jayden Campbell in the halves. Because the Gold Coast had the bye in Round 1 Brimson missed out on securing DPP status as a HLF, but if he stays there he should get it in the next batch of updates down the track. David Fifita being on the bench is a surprise, but it's worth remembering that the same thing happened last year and he continued to be a Fantasy gun anyway.
