NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 56

Trades this week looking like Rein to McInnes and Tolman to RTS. Will give me 7 players at the moment for round 16,really hoping a base price player emerges so I can cashout Young next week and then go from there.

Team after trades
11 trades 155k bank

Cook
Fifita Haas
Murray Taupau Taumalolo
ARey Moses
Nikora Xerri
Tedesco Ponga RTS

Smith
McInnes
Mahoney
CNK

Havili
Dearden
Brittain
Young

Any other opinions?

Really tempted by a Fifita (c) this week. Week's rest. Playing the Eels at home. Would have been an easy decision if JT hadn't just cracked a hundy the week prior

I've tentatively gone Fifi.

Nice banner LB!

oh man, its up alraedy ? I was hoping to do another filth-special ala Rhyse Martin Banner '18 :pp"

Very nice job LB. Love having the breakdown there.

Who is the better pick up Mann or Staggs?

Cheers thought I'd add that little touch there.

I'm interested in Watson for next week if he's at HOK, will be interesting to see Buhrers impact from the bench.

Avatar bet this week Rando?

@Liverpool_Bulldog nice work mate

Looks like RTS is the flavour of the week, but what about Tommy Turbo? If you already have Ponga and Teddy at WFB would it be better to grab TTurbo over RTS? Mainly H2H so missing a game over origin or a bye doesn't matter too much

Great effort mate looks awesome

I would say Fifita has the higher ceiling against Eels he could run rampant but McInnes has the higher floor where you can be confident he should get 50 minimum. Even though you say money isn't an issue I'd probably take McInnes because of the money issue because of his lower BE

Thanks, I'll take you're advice. Also, am I better off getting RTS or just stick with McInnes

I am keen, whats the bet? I feel like we can't do Fantasy related team scores because I have one... 4 from 4? I have 440 point lead for the year as well already.

You have no frf/2fr cover so what happens if Haas/Murray don't back up. I can see why you've made the RTS trade because it gives you wfb cover but wouldn't it be better to get a frf or a 2fr instead of McInnes. Haas probably more chance to back up than Murray because his game is on Sunday but to me if they both start on the bench in origin they should be able to back up. Maybe just get 2fr cover or better still a dpp although most of them are rubbish.

Currently got 6 players for R16 after trades this week and probably looking at getting 10-12 depending on how sideways I want to make my trades in R16

Potentially thinking about something like Taupau + Munster + Havili to SST + SJ + Farah pending on future prices and how they go in next few weeks. Obviously lower priority then bringing in Bateman and Smith next week (and potentially RTS depending on prices)

If the Drinkwater news is correct I will give him this week to impress and see how he goes at top level and if he is good enough his BE is about 43 so I might bring him in next week instead of RTS. Meaning I would grab Dearden and McInnes this week and CS9/Bateman/Drinkwater (instead of RTS) and Cow next week. Just for soemthing different. Plus the DPP is nice.

What's your full team again?? Without context I'd pick McInnes (although 180k difference might mean something to you, but McInnes price is trending up and RTS is going down). I want to see at least one more week of how RTS goes before getting him as it looks like teams are targeting away from him on kick returns + see relationship with Nikorima (also waiting coincides with better fixtures from next week as Storm v Warriors this week)

There was a rumour that Turbo would play ctr. If this is the case then go RTS. If Turbo named at f/b go Turbo. On face value yes Turbo is the better pick but if you calculate estimated points of both Turbo & RTS up to & including round 16 then RTS probably outscores Turbo.
