In this audible edition of The Mercato, Jason gives his initial thoughts on the price leaks (courtesy of FootyStatistics), covering the guns, discount deals and denials, adjusted players and those returning to NRL Fantasy in 2024.

The Mercato is a long-form series for Talking League, covering various strategic elements of NRL Fantasy. During the season, expect an article to be published at least once per fortnight. All Talking League articles can be found at: www.talkingleaguepod.com/articles

CORRECTION: RTS’ price is not $538k (his last price in 2021), it will in fact be $619k.
