NRL Fantasy 2019 part 73

In other news, I'm up against White Lightning in the Eliminator and it's not looking good. Our unique players are:

Taupau - Jurbo
JFH - J Papalii
Watson - Wighton
Nikora - Latrell
Turbo - Ponga
RTS - McInnes
Twal - Tevaga
CNK - Burns
Xerri - To'o
Dearden DBrown
Whitbread - Fifita
Brittain - Walters

Basically for me to stand a chance, I need my POD squad of Burns, Tevaga, Wighton, Papalii and Latrell (Latrell is a POD among top teams) to fire up, as well as McInnes.

Good luck my dude, I'd say you'll likely beat me this week.

I see you're already claiming underdog status BB. When I looked at your team I thought you had the edge. Those match ups seem more favourable for you than me. Good luck you are all class & graciousness BB.

Warriors, Maumalo in Pompey out.

I’m 29th in the fantastics league up against 33rd so should be a great match up

Good news for us Dearden owners he is ready to go this week so hopefully they pick him. Up against the Titans I might play him over CNK, Whitbread & Xerri as my 17th man. I can't loophole because my only npr is Brittain & he plays before those 4.

Maybe they get extra points for playing hookers in backrow/HLF - Roache, Tevaga, Robson, Turpin, Havili,BSmith et al

Also maybe they get more points for playing russian roulette with the spine during the game.

That's what Mary McGregor meant when he said "We can still win this" as Widdop is expected back soon.

It's actually smart when you think about it.

Spend more of your salary cap on hookers, then the league has no hookers left. Warriors can start targeting the whimpy little hookers left on the field, then charge 500% for a transfer of their stock to the new clubs.

I can see no other way Kearny could justify holding a head coaching role other than financial manipulation.

I think Tevega's ankle injury is going to bother him for the rest of the season so the Warriors should manage his training. Hopefully he doesn't miss any games because I need him with only 2 trades left. He's averaged 66 for me since I've had him...

Ah nice!!  Great head to head this one.  Will have to have a squizz at his team.  I've had two good weeks but not expecting the tri fecta haha.

There's a list of who everyone is in here

I hope we're after someone other than Liddle...

Liddle is a beast and we already signed Simpkin

We need a speedy fullback (like Papenhuyzen), a big fast centre if we manage offload Mbye, an aggressive tackle-busting prop and a back-rower to replace Lawrence, and a new reserve grade team. We also need another half for when Benji retires but that probably won’t me until the end of next year. And one of our signings needs to be a goal-kicker

If we manage to do all this then Tigers would definitely be a top 8 team, pushing for top 4

We have a decent group of players between Thompson, Nofoaluma, Brooks, Marshall, Liddle, MCK, Aloiai, Twal, Eisenhuth,Taylor, Matterson, Marsters


I’m hoping something like this for the future

1. ?
2. Nofoaluma
3. Marsters (he needs improvement but I believe he has the potential to be a weapon, if he doesn’t improve get another centre)
4. ?
5. Thompson
6. Benji
7. Brooks
8. Twal
9. Liddle
10. ?
11. ?
12. Matterson
13. Taylor/Eisenhuth

14. ?
15. Aloiai
16. Mikaele
17. Chee-Kam

Twal bench... Might just trade the fucker out

No dearden for broncos

Dugan FB.  No Morgan

Twal benched, Matto lock.  Knights unchanged.

Burns named, Surgess extended bench.  Widdop 6, Norman FB, Dufty bench, Lomax wing.

Blake named.  Lane dropped, Niu starting, Alvaro bench.  

Gorden FB, Brimson halves.

Papy bench.

Holland in.  Morris bench, Verrills bench.

Easy trade to Klemmer

Matterson lock is interesting. More tackles and run metres should provide better base stats.

Same, curious decision by madge

Looking at JFH dpp

Might not play 80 though. He's always scored well in the back row.
