Do you think Twal is a trade out?
Or is he still getting 50mins and will score 45-50 points a game?

I think he'll still get roughly the same mins and points he's getting now.

I think I’m gonna trade Fifita to Teddy and then upgrade Tevaga back to Fifita or Matterson in two weeks.
Will probs hold Twal and hope for the best.
That still leaves me 3 trades.

Me too. I'm an owner and sometimes these changes are good and sometimes not. How many minutes will he get? Will he spend any time on the edge? These are the questions but he's a great player and showed at the Roosters he can score well from several positions.

I’ve got Twal and I’m going to keep him (0 trades) but honestly I think that it may be better for him. The first 20 mins is always the most intense it could take it out of him as opposed to him coming on against tiring forwards. May be able to get a couple of TBs here and there and I can’t see him playing any less mins than he normally does

He often plays 55-60 straight through from the start, I just think he’ll do the same from about 20-25 mins in. If I owned him wouldn’t be panicking until we see an actual game.

Assuming certainty is 13+, I didn’t like the roosters nearly as muchStormTrooper96 wrote:Haven't done this in a while but I will try and start it up again. Here is ST's Tips for the week.
CERTAINTY:
Roosters - What more can I say. Close to their strongest team yet. Seem to be hitting their straps coming into the finals and will be far too strong for the Doggies. Not much more to say here.
UPSET:
Warriors - Eels seem a bit shell shocked after last weeks big loss to Manly and have made a few changes. Maumalo is big for them plus Niko and RTS are in some good form at the moment, Warriors will find a way to win.
SMOKEY CAPTAIN:
The man wearing my armband this week is Ponga. Been a little quiet through the Origin period, along with Knights form. Knights need to find a win here and Ponga needs to find another gear for them and he will. Ponga is in for a big game and will score a couple meaties. Will be in everything.if
Not to gloss over a strong starting 13 even though Friend is gone again, but did raise my eyebrows at their bench this week... Verrils, Morris, Tetevano.

I’ll be keen to see whether he still gets 80mins or does Madge give him a 15min breather.

He’s looked great when he’s come on Carrigan.Fraser wrote:Im screwed this week and have to play Carrigan as starting FRF.
Here's hoping the Broncos kick out to a solid early lead so they can reduce Haas' workload and let Carrigan pick up some extra mins. I would hate to see young Haas over doing it and burning himself out early in the season, or maybe I'm just being selfish.
Don’t be surprised to see him start lock with flegler out. Was playing much better than flegler and one of them in every tackle of the set guys

You’ve got Moses, ok won’t lie I’m jealous lol.
As a big Souths fan mate just hold at least a trade as Burns is so injury prone, you just dunno when he’s gonna go down, it seems he goes down quite frequently with an injury these last 3-4 years.
Edit: just saw Fifita is there, so Burns is usually your 18th man, I reckon save your trades.

Badly timed opening post mate. The boys were busy being offended by an offended guy.Rabbits21 wrote:Hello guys just joined up and didn’t know this site existed til a week or so ago.
It’s my third year playing fantasy and I’m in some head to head leagues on Bunnies forums/sites.
Turns out one of the leagues couldn’t get filled so there are some celeb teams that’d have been in one of the league, Fantasy Fantatics, CK, Lone Scout, Renegade RFS, Damien Cook etc.....
I’m playing for head to head and overall, would love to join a league on here next year if that would be possible. I’m currently having my best season yet and am ranked 583 for overall.
I have 5 trades and 198k left and would love some advice, I need to get Teddy in but am stumped how to do so, my 18-21 in my squad are pretty weak.
I’ve considered trading Fifita out and then back in but it may not be the best choice, I also have Tevaga and Twal, trading Twal to Fifita though only leaves me 39k spare, I’ll just post my team below:
Firstly, welcome
Secondly, hope the fanatics team gave you a touch-up in your H2H league
Thirdly, nice team!
Lastly, although you’re too 600 you’re still quite a way off the pace to make a top 200 charge.
Would seriously think about a Fifita To Tedesco move (start Twal even though he’s not starting he’ll get his normal 40-53pts)
Then downgrade tevaga to a scoring differential to put some cash in the bank for a Twal to better prop for the run home.
You have more trades left than most. Gamble time

Back in Hayne's prime he went on several runs of monster scores where he was a very viable captain.
Teddy may nor may not be able to replicate that, but there is precedent.

Thanks mate, I versed the Fanatics in round 5 and lost 881-861.
Who would be a differential option cheaper than Tevaga? I’m tempted by Burns but how injury prone he is worries me!
I’m versing CK in round 20 and Lone Scout in round 21.... won’t be easy at all, last week I managed to score 1077.
I don’t think there are many other FRF options besides really Klemmer or JFH who are a bit more expensive than Twal, Klemmer is one I’m keeping an eye on!

Api coming on for the last 20 minutes makes sense with Fainu hitting the wall late in games. Dare I keep Fainu and with the $158 in the kitty upgrade Hughes or Garrick who are making coin at the moment?
Depends on how much he makes and who you can get for him I guess. Even with Api back on the bench, I don't think I'll pull the trigger right away. Fainu can score 50 easily in 60 minutes, but if he's 700K, then yeah that's another thing to consider as he could be a straight swap to another 80 minute or so gun.
Depends who you could get for both Hughes and Garrick mate, but you also would have to be wary of Fainu losing minutes when Api is back. I just don't see it happening.
