Sam is back with his weekly breakdown of all 16 NRL teamlists going into Round 3. Get your summary of the studs and duds for your supercoach / fantasy needs!

1. Lachlan Coote 2. Kyle Feldt 3. Justin O'Neill 4. Kane Linnett 5. Antonio Winterstein 6. Michael Morgan 7. Johnathan Thurston 8. Matthew Scott 14. Rory Kostjasyn 10. James Tamou 11. Gavin Cooper 12. Ethan Lowe 13. Jason Taumalolo
Interchange: 9. Jake Granville 15. John Asiata 16. Scott Bolton 17. Ben Hannant

In - Nil
Out - Nil

Analysis - It's a rare Thursday night match in Townsville which sees the defending premiers host the Roosters. The Cowboys have named the exact 17 players for the third straight week and will be looking to bounce back after their shock loss to Parramatta. 

Supercoach Studs - Ethan Lowe (78) has got off to a flyer again this season, exactly how he went in 2015. Is certainly a point of difference at this stage, however did tail off towards the backend of last season as he tends to rely of attacking stats.  

Supercoach Duds - Jake Granville (40) started from the bench, still saw 60 odd minutes but is on the sell list. 

1. Latrell Mitchell 2. Shaun Kenny-Dowall 3. Blake Ferguson 4. Dale Copley 5. Daniel Tupou 6. Jayden Nikorima 7. Jackson Hastings 15. Sam Moa 9. Jake Friend 10. Dylan Napa 11. Aidan Guerra 12. Mitchell Aubusson 14. Sio Siua Taukeiaho
Interchange: 13. Isaac Liu 8. Kane Evans 16. Ian Henderson 17. Mitchell Frei

In - Mitchell Frei

Out - Vincent Leuluai

Analysis - The Roosters have lost their opening 2 games of the season, after a heartbreaking loss in Canberra last Saturday. The Blake Ferguson experiment at fullback looks to have been abandoned with young gun Latrell Mitchell handed the #1 jersey. Vincent Leuluai has been ruled out with Mitchell Frei handed his debut.

Supercoach Studs - Jackson Hastings (42) and Jayden Nikorima (47) are must have rookies and are set for some solid price rises. Latrell Mitchell (63) moves to fullback which should see his scores improve.

Supercoach Duds - Dale Copley (17) was ordinary against the Raiders, but there is no need to panic just yet. If he can find the try line then he will make some money.

1. William Hopoate 2. Curtis Rona 3. Josh Morris 4. Chase Stanley 5. Sam Perrett 6. Josh Reynolds 7. Moses Mbye 8. Aiden Tolman 9. Craig Garvey 10. James Graham 11. Josh Jackson 12. Tony Williams 14. Sam Kasiano
Interchange: 15. Tim Browne 16. David Klemmer 17. Adam Elliot 19. Lloyd Perrett

In - Chase Stanley

Out - Kerrod Holland

Analysis - Canterbury are off to a flyer in 2016 and are 2 from 2 after their dramatic win over the Panthers. The hero of that game Kerrod Holland, who kicked the conversion from the sideline on debut has found out that a week is a long time in the NRL and making way for Chase Stanley who returns from a hamstring strain. David Klemmer faces the judiciary on Wednesday night but has been named.

Supercoach Studs - Moses Mbye (137) is absolutely on fire in the first 2 rounds, setting up tries, making linebreaks and scored the winning try last week to boot. Projected to rise by $75k he is the best replacement for those who have an underperforming half.

Supercoach Duds - Aiden Tolman (18) was concussed early in the match and didn't return.

1. Michael Gordon 2. Semi Radradra 3. Michael Jennings 4. Brad Takairangi 5. Clinton Gutherson 6. Corey Norman 7. Kieran Foran 8. Junior Paulo 9. Isaac De Gois 10. Tim Mannah 11. Ken Edwards 12. Beau Scott 13. Tepai Moeroa
Interchange: 14. Kaysa Pritchard 15. Peni Terepo 16. Danny Wicks 17. David Gower

In - Isaac De Gois, David Gower

Out - Nathan Peats, Manu Ma'u

Analysis - The Eels head into the local derby against Canterbury on a high after they overcame the defending premiers, North Queensland on Saturday night. Nathan Peats and Manu Ma'u drop out of the 17 due to injury and suspension respectively, with experienced duo Isaac De Gois and David Gower coming in.  

Supercoach Studs - Unfortunately the Eels most relevant players are Nathan Peats (74) and Manu Ma'u (53) but they are holds if you have cover as they will be valuable as bye coverage down the track.

Supercoach Duds - Semi Radradra (26) will plummet in price after this week. Michael Gordon (36) should be downgraded to one of the cheapies available in the centres this week and use the cash to upgrade elsewhere.

3. Dane Gagai 2. Nathan Ross 15. Sione Mata'utia 4. Pat Mata'utia 19. Cory Denniss 6. Jarrod Mullen 7. Trent Hodkinson 8. Sam Mataora 14. Danny Levi 10. Korbin Sims 11. Jacob Saifiti 12. Robbie Rochow 13. Jeremy Smith
Interchange: 9. Tyler Randell 16. Lachlan Fitzgibbon 18. Pauli Pauli 20. Mickey Paea

In - Nathan Ross

Out - Pauli Pauli

Analysis - Newcastle are now wooden spoon favourites after another ordinary performance against Souths last start. Sione Mata'utia comes into the side for David Bhana on the bench after being demoted to the Holden Cup last weekend.

Supercoach Studs - Pat Mata'utia (58) was again very strong and has emerged as a must have cheapie with another strong effort. He is a great option for those looking to offload Michael Gordon, Nathan Green or Ben Henry this week.

Supercoach Duds - Jaelen Feeney (5) has not worked out well at fullback for the opening rounds and should be traded for South's Cody Walker at five-eighth if possible.

1. Jack Wighton 2. Edrick Lee 3. Jarrod Croker 4. Brenko Lee 5. Jordan Rapana 6. Lachlan Croker 7. Sam Williams 8. Shannon Boyd 9. Josh Hodgson 10. Frank Paul Nuuausala 11. Josh Papalii 12. Elliot Whitehead 13. Shaun Fensom
Interchange: 14. Kurt Baptiste 15. Iosia Soliola 16. Paul Vaughan 17. Jeff Lima

In - Brenko Lee

Out - Joseph Leilua

Analysis - Canberra got out of jail for the second week in a row and will head up the Hume Highway with plenty of confidence against the hapless Knights. Joey Leilua is suspended and has been replaced by Brenko Lee. Shaun Fensom and Lachlan Croker have been named despite not making it through last week's match.   

Supercoach Studs - Jarrod Croker (66) has been in good form and if the Raiders continue to throw the ball around they could really do some damage to the Knights defence. Doesn't look like missing with the boot.

Supercoach Duds - Shaun Fensom (0) left the field with concussion early and will see a big price drop as a result.

1. William Smith 2. Josh Mansour 12. Isaah Yeo 4. Peta Hiku 5. Dallin Watene Zelezniak 18. Te Maire Martin 7. Jamie Soward 8. Sam McKendry 9. Peter Wallace 10. Regan Campbell-Gillard 11. Bryce Cartwright 6. Tyrone Peachey 17. Elijah Taylor
Interchange: 15. Jeremy Latimore 16. Suaia Matagi 16. James Fisher-Harris 20. Leilani Latu

In - Will Smith

Out - Dean Whare

Analysis - Penrith host the Broncos, where they return to Pepper Stadium after fading badly against the Bulldogs last week. Will Smith replaces Dean Whare in the backline. Peter Wallace and Tyrone Peachey swapped positions and play in the same spots as they did last week.

Supercoach Studs - Bryce Cartwright (51) was again a little bit underwhelming starting from the bench but he is a certain hold as both weeks he has scored very few attacking stats…only a matter of time.  

Supercoach Duds - Josh Mansour (33) didn't get the base stats owners were after but was disallowed a try and did plenty of runs towards the end of the match. Worth persisting with.

1. Darius Boyd 2. Greg Eden 3. Jack Reed 4. James Roberts 5. Jordan Kahu 6. Anthony Milford 7. Ben Hunt 8. Josh McGuire 9. Andrew McCullough 10. Adam Blair 11. Alex Glenn 12. Matt Gillett 13. Corey Parker
Interchange: 14. Jarrod Wallace 15. Sam Thaiday 16. Jo Ofanhengaue 17. Kodi Nikorima

In - Greg Eden

Out - Corey Oates

Analysis - Brisbane have started the season well, however will be wary of a scorned Panthers outfit who have lost narrowly in both their matches so far. In form winger Corey Oates is out for 4-6 weeks in a devastating blow, he is replaced by English flyer Greg Eden in a straight swap.

Supercoach Studs - Anthony Milford (90) was outstanding against the Warriors and is a bona fide keeper. Will be crucial over the Origin period due to his 12 month ban from Queensland selection.

Supercoach Duds - Corey Parker (58) has not been getting big minutes so far and will drop in price however he is still a proven performer. In fact this time last year he was in the same boat and was sold by many teams before hitting his straps. Trade at your own risk.

1. David Mead 2. Anthony Don 3. Josh Hoffman 4. John Olive 5. Nene Macdonald 6. Tyrone Roberts 7. Ashley Taylor 8. David Shillington 9. Nathan Friend 10. Agnatius Paasi 11. Zeb Taia 12. Chris McQueen 13. Greg Bird
Interchange: 14. Luke Douglas 15. Ryan James 16. Leivaha Pulu 17. Daniel Mortimer

In - Nil

Out - Nil

Analysis - The Titans were outclassed in the end by the Storm, but have already shown a lot of improvement from 2015 in their opening 2 rounds. Hosting a red hot Tigers side, Gold Coast have no changes from last week as they look to bounce back.   

Supercoach Studs - Rookie Nathan Davis (54) has held his spot in the side despite Nene MacDonald returning, which means he should collect a projected $45k this week. With MacDonald moving to the wing to accommodate him, this would suggest his job security is looking good. 

Supercoach Duds - Agnatius Paasi (30) couldn't back up his Round 1 performace and minutes may be an issue for owners due to the return of Luke Douglas (28). 

1. James Tedesco 2. David Nofoaluma 3. Tim Simona 4. Kevin Naiqama 5. Jordan Rankin 6. Mitchell Moses 7. Luke Brooks 8. Aaron Woods 9. Dene Halatau 10. Tim Grant 11. Kyle Lovett 12. Chris Lawrence 13. Sauaso Sue
Interchange: 14. Jack Buchanan 15. Josh Aloiai 16. Ava Seumanufagai 17. Manaia Cherrington

In - Jack Buchanan, Michael Chee Cham

Out - Curtis Sironen

Analysis - The Tigers are emerging as the surprise packets of the competition, making it 2 from 2 against the Sea Eagles. James Tedesco was unstoppable scoring a hat trick.

Supercoach Studs - James Tedesco (157) is the best buy of the week and may even be in better form than last season. He will skyrocket in price and may be unattainable for a while at this point. The flip side is that because he is in breath taking form, he looks a certainty for the NSW fullback spot…which is still months away.

Supercoach Duds - Aaron Woods (49) again was a bit underwhelming but is still playing decent minutes in the front row.

1. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck 2. Tuimoala Lolohea 3. Blake Ayshford 4. Solomone Kata 21. Jonathan Wright 6. Shaun Johnson 7. Jeff Robson 8. Jacob Lillyman 24. Jazz Tevaga 17. Albert Vete 11. Bodene Thompson 12. Ryan Hoffman 13. Simon Mannering
Interchange: 14. Nathaniel Roache 15. Charlie Gubb 16. James Gavet 10. Ben Matulino

In - Charlie Gubb, Albert Vete

Out - Sam Lisone, Raymond Faitala-Mariner

Analysis - The Warriors have now lost 10 games in a row (including 8 games last season) and the pressure on coach Andrew McFadden is immense. He has named a huge squad so there will likely be some last minute shuffling. Ben Matulino has also been named but with need to beat a 4 match ban at the judiciary for tripping in order to play.

Supercoach Studs - Simon Mannering (59) and Ben Matulino (59) continue their consistent scores and are going to be solid buys this year. Ben Matulino owners will have their fingers crossed he doesn't miss 4 games.  

Supercoach Duds - Shaun Johnson (29) has a low scoring week but would be a nervous trade when he scored 94pts the week before. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck (43) will fall by a projected $50k however he will improve after making 25 hit ups last week.

1. Cameron Munster 2. Young Tonumaipea 3. Will Chambers 14. Kenneath Bromwich 5. Marika Koroibete 6. Blake Green 7. Cooper Cronk 8. Jesse Bromwich 9. Cameron Smith 10. Jordan McLean 11. Kevin Proctor 12. Tohu Harris 13. Dale Finucane
Interchange: 18. Christian Welch 15. Tim Glasby 16. Felise Kaufusi 17. Ben Hampton

In - Nil

Out - Nil

Analysis - The big news out of Melbourne this week is the devastating loss of Billy Slater for the 2016 season. Luckily they do have a ready made replacement in Cameron Munster who will reclaim the #1 jumper which he did in 2015 with impressive results. Highly rated rookie Curtis Scott gets his opportunity at centre. 

Supercoach Studs - Cameron Smith (86) once again proved he is the best hooker in Supercoach with a typically stellar performance. Curtis Scott (38) was strong and looks like being a great buy next week. Will Chambers (113) was outstanding and is a good point of difference option.

Supercoach Duds - Billy Slater (0) is the biggest casualty of the week and will need to be upgraded to James Tedesco if possible. Cameron Munster (72) is also a great replacement however is quite pricey at $391k, especially when Greg Inglis a tick over 20k more.

1. Josh Dugan 2. Peter Mata'utia 3. Euan Aitken 4. Timoteo Lafai 5. Jason Nightingale 6. Gareth Widdop 19. Josh McCrone 8. Leeson Ah Mau 9. Mitch Rein 10. Russell Packer 11. Tyson Frizell 12. Joel Thompson 15. Jack de Belin
Interchange: 14. Ben Creagh 13. Michael Cooper 16. Will Matthews 17. Siliva Havili

In - Euan Aitken

Out - Kurt Mann

Analysis - The Dragons were awful against their bitter rivals Cronulla and things won't get much easier as the face the undefeated Rabbitohs. Fullback Kurt Mann is out with an ankle injury which sees NSW fullback Josh Dugan return to the back in what may prove a blessing. Euan Aitken moves to the centres to replace Dugan, who does have an injury cloud hanging over him, picking up a hamstring injury last week. Check late mail.

Supercoach Studs - Not many to report when they were thumped 30-2 by the Sharks. A lot of kicking off practice.  

Supercoach Duds - Josh Dugan (26) did suffer a hamstring strain, however he should be on the watchlist if he returns to fullback on a permanent basis. 

1. Greg Inglis 2. Alex Johnston 3. Bryson Goodwin 4. Hymel Hunt 5. Aaron Gray 6. Cody Walker 7. Luke Keary 8. George Burgess 9. Cameron McInnes 10. David Tyrrell 11. Paul Carter 12. Kyle Turner 13. Sam Burgess
Interchange: 14. Damien Cook 15. Jason Clark 16. Nathan Brown 17. Kirisome Auva'a

In - Nil

Out - Nil

Analysis - South Sydney blasted their way through the Knights and it's fair to say they have yet to be tested in the opening rounds. They come up again an embarrassed Dragons side at the traditional Sydney Cricket Ground. They have made no changes with only Chris Grevsmuhl and Michael Oldfield added to the extended bench. 

Supercoach Studs - Cody Walker (92) is a must have this week in the halves following another stellar effort in Round 2. As Adam Reynolds is not due back until at least Round 8 his job security is assured. Sam Burgess (135) is back and is the most sensible captain choice this week.

Supercoach Duds - George Burgess (40) had a quet game back but is a noted big game plater and with the Dragons and Bulldogs Good Friday clash coming up he could lift.

20. Brett Stewart 2. Jorge Taufua 3. Jamie Lyon 4. Steve Matai 1. Tom Trbojevic 6. Dylan Walker 7. Daly Cherry-Evans 8. Josh Starling 14. Matt Parcell 10. Nate Myles 20. Tom Symonds 12. Martin Taupau 13. Jake Trbojevic
Interchange: 11. Lewis Brown 22. Feleti Mateo 16. Brenton Lawrence 17. Siosaia Vave

In - Nil

Out - Nil

Analysis - Manly couldn't keep pace with the Tigers attack on Monday night and will be very disappointed with their start to 2016. Trent Barrett has chosen the same side and will be hoping they will come out firing against fierce rivals Cronulla in what promises to be a physical game.

Supercoach Studs - Jake Trbojevic's (61) move to lock was good news for owners, but what will happen next week should Jamie Buhrer return from injury? Brenton Lawrence (41) also returned and could play a bigger role in the next few weeks.

Supercoach Duds - Nathan Green (16) has been a disaster and is a sell for one of the better performing cheapies available at centre this week.

1. Ben Barba 2. Sosaia Feki 3. Jack Bird 4. Ricky Leutele 5. Valentine Holmes 6. James Maloney 7. Chad Townsend 8. Andrew Fifita 9. Michael Ennis 15. Matt Prior 11. Luke Lewis 12. Wade Graham 18. Joseph Paulo
Interchange: 14. Gerard Beale 10. Sam Tagataese 13. Jayson Bukuya 17. Chris Heighington

In - Chris Heighington

Out - Nil

Analysis - The Sharks looked very sharp in Round 2 and will be keen to keep their good form going against the Sea Eagles at Brookvale Oval on Monday night. Chris Heighington returns from suspension.

Supercoach Studs - Chad Townsend (76) is an underrated buy and worth keeping an eye on. Andrew Fifita (54) didn't go bang but no need to panic.   

Supercoach Duds - Jack Bird (24) couldn't keep the big scores going but can be forgiven.
