NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 62

Hey we're back and we can trade!!!!!

815 and dropped 100 places to 480. ugh.

849 for my mob - including 21 combined from CM9 and CNK. Went up 2 ranks to 388 enjoy the little things in life. CNK is a worry in my team. Do team lists come out this tuesday or next?

Hey guys,

I found these earlier today. They have the initials B.F on them? Any clues who they belong to?

Next Tuesday mate.

Hollee SJ lost 70k last round, he will be very cheap come round 16.

Looks like round 15 is going to be interesting with Haas and Fifita in doubt. I think Fifita is a good chance to be playing. Waiting to hear some more info about Payne's pain

So with my captain hindsight goggles on just thought I'd go back to my Lawrie > Havili trade heading into Rd12 and highlight two alternatives that I had no idea would do this well.

Lawrie (573k) > Havili (352k)
Points provided since coming in: 120 points, AVG 40
Cash gained from trade: 221k
Price rise: 82k
Cash gained + Price rise: 303k

Lawrie (573k) > To'o (212k)
Points provided since coming in: 135 points, AVG 45
Cash gained from trade: 361k
Price rise: 163k
Cash gained + Price rise: 524k

Lawrie (573k) > Cust (226k)
Points provided since coming in: 151 points, AVG 50.3
Cash gained from trade: 347k
Price rise: 221k
Cash gained + Price rise: 568k

With Havili likely to miss RD15 and To'o and Cust likely to continue, I think this highlights Havili as a bad trade. Just didn't think it would be this big of a gap.

What happened to Havili? Hadn't caught up on this...

Re your post, as you imply hindsight is a wonderful thing, that said, saying something was a bad trade in hindsight is largely pointless. You trade knowing what you know at the time. At the time Havili was a pretty solid option. If you had that situation 5 times over I think you make the same call each time to be honest!

Hodgson meant to be back in so not really missing the round just seeing less minutes.

Oh yeah of course I would go for a hooker 9 times out of 10. Especially one with some recent history of scoring well. I'm sure some of the guys here may have taken the punt on other options and well done to them.

That overall cash difference would be nice to be on the right side of.

@ nrl physio - Good news for Josh Hoffman the scans came back all clear & he will resume training this week.

I'm going to have to keep Havili due to my low trades left but he has hit a couple of decent scores coming off the bench & there's always the possibility of injury that might work in his favour.

I think the whole resting Tedesco thing is to give him time off to play against the Storm.

If I can field 17 players next week I might hold CNK.

Think my team is nearly set for the run home, still a couple of nice to have trades available but need to keep a few spare trades for injuries on the run home.

Current Team for the run home as follows:

Cook
Fifita, Haas
Trbojevic, Taumalolo, Murray
Cleary, Pierce
Xerri, Bateman
Tedessco, RTS, Ponga

Smith, McInnes, Taupau, Nikora

Robson, Mann, Staggs, Maranta

Should hopefully field a good number of players in the last bye. Had a shocker of a round this week with Xerri + CM9 + Tedessco being rested, Still sitting inside the top 1000

Slowly recovering from the fuck up of no captain in round 12.

Round 11 - 21st
Round 12 - 333rd
Round 13 - 276th
Round 14 - 159th

i only got 4 trades left


My Team:

Cook
Fifi, Haas
Lolo,Murray,Taupau
Watson, Munster
Bateman, Nikora
RTS, Teddy, Ponga

SST, CM9, Tolman, Xerri


gonna swap out Watson for SJ when he bottoms out... then trade out Tolman and Xerri.. to round out my final team... huge risk to do it this fast but im climbing the ranks fast with this strat.

100%. The Roosters will need to win that match to have a shot at the Minor Premiership you'd think. They'll want all hands on deck for that one.

I am running around with:

Cook
Fifi Haas
Tolo Murray Taupau
Cleary Mann
Nikora Bateman
Teddy Ponga Watson

CS9 CM9 SST Martin
Xerri Dearden CNK Brittain
(7 trades)

My 17 is pretty much set, just need a HLF, WFB, 17th and 18th mann. So 4 players with 7 trades

Looking like maybe Xerri/Watson (If he can keep the 9) might get the 18th man spot.

Thinking of holding CNK for now as R16 CNK, Martin and Dearden are GOOOOONNNNEEEE. Will hold CNK so I can make sure I pick up a R16 player who will actually be playing R16.

Dang mate. How did you have no captain? Not make changes from the week before or something?
