Captain Haas for me too... it would be risky not to put the C on him

I don't think he has a 40 in him unless something goes wrong during the game, the kid is something else.
Haas stats this week - 200+ metres, 11 TB's, 1 LB, 2 OL, 33 TCK. Whatever that's worth.

Mate I think I’m bringing him in:
Watson + Cartwright to Cook + Aubbs.
Will chose between Aubbs and To’o for 17th man each week. No trades left!

He was good on the weekend too. It's risky though. Interesting Butcher moved back to the bench also for him.
I can do Xerri and Watson to Aubbs and Fifita with no money to spare.

Talking about referees, I went through the Tigers game and found at least 11 calls that went against the Tigers (after 14 dud calls last week against the roosters)
These were the decisions in chronological order:
Go through the game and record decisions that went against Parra
make sure you are equally anal with them about what constitutes an incorrect decision.

Re: NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 71
Does anyone have an argument for Milford over one of Ponga or Tedesco, or is that just being silly.
Milford has a whiff of chasing points (and Im annoyed he returned within a week), but while he is kicking long hes getting the best of both fantasy worlds.
Obviously the imminent returns of an actual half will probably cut into his kick metres, but to what extent..
Thedre is the chance of re-aggravating his knee injury too, but he didnt show any signs of concern on the weekend.

You don’t have any of Turbo, Ponga or Tedesco?Rabbit wrote:I don’t think I’ll trade now......might just hang on to those 5 golden nuggets until the inevitable injuries and suspensions happen. There’s 8 rounds left and 1 or 2 trades from here isn’t going to cut it this year. If a team scores 1100 last week, surely there’s no need to trade? Maybe Watson to Turbo/Ponga/Tedesco, only if he’s benched. I think CNK is keeper material and am glad plenty of teams dumped him. Bad move
Also, a little avatar update for the Trump fans here. Enjoy. Lol.
I think you’re overrating those 5 trades for injury bud. That’s week on week slide backwards material

Really is superb comeback thatRabbit wrote:
My highest rank is 108th. My goal was to finish top 100 this year. I’m 111st now, but way too far behind the leaders to make a dent, so I’m just going to see how high I can get. Considering i was 21,700th after R1 I’d be satisfied with top 100. Gotta have goals.

Further to luck is trades and patience.multiple.scoregasms wrote:
Skills gets you to the top 500, luck is needed to get any higher than that. One bad captain choice can be the difference between 200 and 500
I’ve had a 13th, a 55th and an eliminator semi final, when they used to run that on the old game
Pretty sure DarkKnight can beat that record though
The 55th and eliminator semi knockout were both slip ups due to having zero trades last 3 rounds*
*Definition of insanity: I’m doing the same again this year. Sitting 26th. Only 1 trade left

Is it worth considering Whitbread if he has actually secured the starting lock position?

Arrow should be back soon.
New coaches may tinker as well.. just a bit of an unknown I guess.

Can almost guarantee that Bellamy is Bellamying and Storm will line up 1.Papi 6.Hughes 11.Stimson 17.Kami.
Doesn't help Munster/Walters though

Re: NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 71
Surely those with Coates don’t actually need him play first-17 though? Weird player for people to be upset at this stage of the year about. I didn’t get him but like Billy walters (who I did get) he’s a clear as day m, base price, bye round Cashout - and no more?Weiland wrote:Looks like Coates will be stuck in my team until the end. Pissed off I changed to him from Farnworth in the last minute last week.
Won’t always be first game of the round so a good number 17 for the run home

Pretty strong right now. The Warriors can't really afford to have him off the field too long since he is the best tackler and worker in the team.
