NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 62

I rose 1825 ranks with a score of 936

Just looking at the Fifita tackle. It doesn't look to good. I can see why he would get off as he was merely completing the tackle and Suttons head was under his body, but then I can also see where he wouldn't as the tackle was pretty much already made and Fifita made the effort to drop into the tackle which placed Sutton's head/neck in the 'Crushing' type fashion.

Slowly soaring high. You are indeed well-named.

I think they're just going to dispute the grading (grade 2) rather than try to get him off the charge completely

If grade 1, I believe he'd be right for R15 but miss Tonga game

JMK could hardly walk at the end of the game, not sure if any injury reported though.

CNK has been ruled out of playing for Cook Islands with hamstring strain

Given a few of his interviews online, he sounded keen to play so it might be more than the regular "international injury" for those looking at keeping him

fuck it, if the Bulldogs name a 4 forward bench next week, JMK is my 2nd final half beside A-Rey, should make enough money in the short term to bail out to a respectable half later if Dean Pay does Dean Pay things, second trade will be bringing in Burns to lock up my 18th man spot, Havili to Field the week after for the R16 cash-out, then hope whatever is left is enough to turn Xerri & Mann into Cook and NBrown R17 for my final team with 3 trades left, if not then i'll go with Tofu for the 2nd trade.

did see that, but i was searching earlier before i mentioned it and nothing has been said about it from anyone, so i assume whatever it was will be fine with a 2-week rest.

Thoughts on Hutchison as a cash out that will eventually nuff out? I'm downgrading Dearden to try to raise money to get RTS in (I was gonna do Mahoney to SJ but I'll wait another week for SJ and use Havili to get him instead)

Well I doubt he would say he didn't want to play for the Cook Islands and he is glad he can't.

But in all seriousness I hope he is right as I am of the (hope to hold) group this week; however, if I do I think it-ll be in my 18-21.

I need $2.7m from these players:
* Martin and Havili in r16
* CNK & Xerri in r17
* Mahoney in r18

I think I'm short but just wanted another set of eyes. My spreadsheet is a bit generous with averages/price rises. I expect these plans will be dead as soon as round 15 starts anyway...

Thx

By this do you mean you'll be holding Martin, Havili and CNK one more round (rd15), Xerri 2 rounds (rd 15/16) and Mahoney two rounds (rd 15/17)?

Edit if so:

Martin for a score of 45 at lock in 80 minutes in round 15, Havili 25 off the bench in round 15, CNK 40 (his avg) in round 15, Xerri 42 (his avg minus injury) in rounds 15 and 16, and Mahoney 50 (his avg) in rounds 15 and 17.

I make it 2554k. Sorry mate.

Who should I get this week out of Trbojevic, Crichton or Taupau???

Yes - thats a better way of looking at it. I'm trying to balance points and cash gen. I cant go with optimal BE trading (CNK in r15 etc) without sacrificing points/cover. I'm over complicating things

I got him last round and he was decent. Keary not back until round 17 so that's the only reason I got him since I'm hoping he plays round 16. Lachlan Lam is almost fit though so that's a worry but I reckon Hutchison keeps his spot at least next game. If he plays well again he should play round 16 and have made me close to 100k by then (maybe).

If you get him now don't be surprised if he gets dropped though. The Roosters fans on their forum don't seem to rate him.

Take this with the smallest of grains of salt. Apparently Flanagan to the Roosters before the end of the week - from the one and only Mole. (Politis always gets his man)

Read something today Keary could see 6 months on the sideline.
