NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 63

Not sure wether to make trades this week? Only got 7 left and still got heaps of cheapies in my team.

My team currently:

Cook
Haas Fifita
Tapau Lolo Murray
Cleary Wighton
Bateman Nikora
Ponga Tedesco To’o

CS9 CM9 Havili L.Martin
Arthurs Herbert Whitbread Brittain

199k Itb.

Considering swapping out whitbread> twal and Herbert> cheapie? (Salmon/Hutchinson/Naden?)

Any suggestions would be much appreciated

The annoying thing about the break in fantasy is having to stare at the shit scores I (and obviously a lot of others) copped last week - having to stare at McInnes 9 and Cook's underwhelming captaincy score

I mean if I got over 1000 and had great scores all over my team I'd be happy to continue staring at them

Boring day at work today! If someone wants a little run down of a player they are looking at for their team I will try my best to get a few stats, some positives/negatives, thoughts etc. when I can get to it.

Thoughts on Connor Watson? What happens if Levi is back?

I’ve gone CNK & Dearden for Watson and Verrills.  Verrills could well be a dud, or he might get a more prominent role as the year rolls on. A little punt, but R16 should be better off for me. I like how Watson is playing. He looks like a first grader now. Leaves 11 trades.

I'm still tempted by Watson too. Hopefully some more info on Griffin and Levi come to light over the next week.

If anyone is interested in 2020 wt signing news.. Whether they sign or not is another thing but tigers are in advanced discussions with Welch and Capewell.

I feel like there is a good chance he locks down the starting 9, but are they likely to leave Levi out of the 17 entirely? He was playing good footy before he got injured.

Don't actually know what I'll do if he maintains starting 9 or starting 6 when Levi/Griffin return, I'm planning to trade back to Fifita on assumption that he'd be back to bench HOK/utility once Levi/Griffin return but not too sure what's going to happen

If he was to remain starting player I might have to consider keeping as 18th man and then getting Fifita back through someone like SJ/SST or someone like that (who I don't even have in my current squad and are likely to come in for R16) - was the main reason why I was hesitant in the first place but he looks to be outperforming what I expected him to average

Dearden over Watson for the sake of 100k is looking like horrifically bad business decision.

:Cry:

Dave Taylor has retired from Rugby League at the age of 30.

Brown back training and could play rd15

those with Farah... from same person.

Madge has a lot of time for Liddle, being given every opportunity to prove he is worth a shot at the full time 9 job.
Liddle turned down a mid-season switch to the Bulldogs to repay faith.

9.5 hour shifts was the pick of the lot.
I work shift work and weekends/public holidays so it’s not as simple as a 3,4 or 5 day week

Man of many talents!

Looking forward to the new Chucky movie ?

What was ur previous role type if u don't mind me asking mate ? That's a huge swing in ur life, how r u coping ?

I just want to win the lottery so I don't have to work. I'm not asking much

I don't see how Watson will hold the 9 jumper over Levi. Watson wasn't that great last week from what I could tell. Levi was really turning up before he got injured.

I'm that bored that I'm listening to the podcasts from earlier in the season

Not working though, just a lowly uni student (having finished exams for the semester)

Bring back the podcasts! More than happy to get involved, especially since there's no footy tonight haha.

Are we on for another avatar bet @Mulvy? Same as last game?
