NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 55

Currently 314/6 with Taumalolo (c), Havili, J. Bateman, Whitbread, A. Taylor, CNK & Young to play.
Also if your h2h opponent has C. Smith (c) & Haas (vc) I assume this is accurate since both c & vc lockout at the start of the round. Is this correct? Cheers.

Where are you Vanish. It's like you've vanished.

Pretty sure no one would of expected 15 TBs from Tracey

That was me! Captained him for his 40 last week too but 160 points off him in a buy round was invaluable.

Need Lolo to bust now. A solid 45 would be great.

Ive just realised I have the v on Teddy. I'll puke if Taumalolo is out

Anyway, 339 with a few left. Banked a trade (or two depends on whether I bring Havili in)

Taumalolo(c) Rein Young CNK Bateman and maybe Havili

Ooof, fingers crossed to smash out 700+

177th. 7 to play. Started at 23,000th.

One of the classic charges from the wily old Rabbit.

Just because nobody answered.

Everyone interested in a base price Souths cashout was on Brittain, and nobody wanted 2 players with no guaranteed games beyond this week. Unless Cody Walker gets injured/rested, we probably won't see Tracey again.

Even if it was a 50/50 choice I still would have picked a base priced hooker over a base price half in a weakened team

Bloody hell, looking good.

Bloke sitting in first looks to have a heap to play still.

I'm 7/365 with Lolo(c), Young, CNK, Bateman & Havili.

Started round in 181st, currently sitting 25th.

Waiting for Late mail for tonight's game before i trade in bateman but who should i trade out to get him in if he plays? options that i have who are worth enough plus money itb and aren't locked out yet are

Playing 12

Rein
Tolman

Bye players

RTS
Ponga
Farah
Nikora
Haas


I know everyones talking bout Farah but just feel like he will be back to big scores soon. Thinking Haas. Will prob back up from origin games but limited minutes that will see him lose money over the origin period. And if i manage my trades and cash right, might be able to bring him back in at a reduced price for someone on the way out after r16.

I think unless you make a big call on Farah you can wait til r13 for more trade out options. I dont like the idea of trading Haas out tbh

I would hold the trade mate. Obviuosly Bateman is capable of a big score, but even if he outscores Rein and Tolman by 10 pts, would you be that disappointed?

Only way I'd be trading out a guy who's playing this round is if the guy you're bringing in is 25+ point better scorer on averages.

Actually, I might punt Farah, but that also depends on how many trades you have. That's just a gut feel opinion though, so don't hold me to anything. I guess I'm a Farah denier.

Just my opinion but if you have to wreck your entire team to get one player in, it's probably not worth it in the long run.

The logic in trading Haas has some merit to it but it's not a sure thing and the last thing you want to do is trade someone out that literally every serious player owns.

I see more value in waiting a week and trading someone who you just held for R12 rather than getting rid of keepers for an extra 60-70 points for the week.

If your looking to trade a player out and then back in Farah would be the better option over Haas. His BE is huge, he is in Spain this weekend and thats a big trip for 2 days. Plus if he doesnt go back to big scores you just dont trade back in.

Side note Bateman was in England for his recovery and didnt fly back until start of the week, not sure how that will affect him either

Can anyone help with what I should do lads?

I'm 256/5 and have gone from 3500 to just inside 2000, so happy with that so far. I have Lolo (C), CNK, Young, Carty and Rein to play.  I have only used 1 trade so have 16 left and 542K.

Should I keep trading?  I'm pretty sold on just going Carty to Bateman and rolling with that but not sure if I balls out and get Havilli too?  Carty to Bateman makes sense moving forward but I don't know.

My only real other options to trade are Xerri, Lomax, Dearden, Morgan or RTS.  Trading Xerri or Lomax is not ideal over Carty so it's tough.  Any help would be appreciated.  I'm thinking forward too not just this week.  Team would be based on what I have;

Cook
Fifi Haas 
Murray Tolo Taupau
Morgan ARey
Xerri Nikora 
RTS CNK Ponga 

Rein Mahoney Young Sivo

Carty Lomax Dearden Brittain 

Just realised my bench would be shit so probably need to make a move or 2 now?

With those players probably hold mate.

Rabbitohs coach Wayne Bennett likely to rest representative stars over Origin period

Thanks. Prob gonna skip on Bateman this week.


Will be better to flick Sivo and Rein in the coming weeks to get him in. Rein should be back to small minutes soon with Peats return coming in the next few and Sivo has pretty much done his job.

425/6, thanks to (c)punchface. With 5 to play I may charge into the top 3k! Look on my works ye mighty and despair.
