NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 18 - Ditch the duds thread

KiwiOilBoiler wrote:Anyone got five for a Brimson chat?

I held week one because i didn't like the look of anyone else suitable at his price or less. Walters probably nearest to getting the gig but all the will he won't he talk put me off.

Its now week two and AJB is still marginal. I would have to shred a team that scored 870 Rd1 with Luai in Hlf promoted from #18 in order to replace with anyone of any quality, meaning lower 1-17 pts overall i feel.

Thoughts?

If you dont have walters, I would say that you need to get him in. If you dont get him now and he keeps scoring 50 each week, you will regret not having him.

Brimson, I would normally have said make your trades as late as possible, to see if he is playing, but since he is in the last game of the round, you are kind of screwed if he doesnt play

I'd also want to see Brimson make it through a game and be named to start the following week.

Taumalolo, so a team correction mate. Often my round 1 and round 2 trading is reverting to the team I didn’t (or should have) build and/or get the best missed cow.

Don’t trust any of them cows yet - notably warriors, so quick re-shape

Yeah, I can't afford me no Tolo lol.

I... I guess not?

Musgrove and Stimson my only sub 30 scorers.

Would you flick them for Flegler and Katoa? Will cost me 40k?

Sorry haven't caught up things are hectic out here. So to the fantasy forum i seek council.

Whats the general consensus on spuddy aekins and lomax on the wing? I didnt carry any C or WFB cover so im thinking either williame lomax or aekins to walters (nove drink to wfb from half).

Do i even have problems yet? Are people max trading or holding when you can?

Koro
Haas cardigan
Fifi tolo lucy
Moses Drink
Williame lomax
Aekins kennedy pap

Hess sua carty levi

Jtb Rudolf luai musgrove

I have been out the loop all week so any advice is much appreciated.

Yeah he’s unfortunately a move heaven and earth guy, but for me it was my final decision flip

Tolo with a Friend/Brailey/Levi type
Or
Hess with Cook

I chose B and have seen enough already

Tolo was clear fantasy points leader all match round 1 until Fifita and Haas blew up at the end while he was having a short spell. I fear for Wakeham and Lewis against him

Horribly sideways cows for cows move but make you a bit of cash. Maybe just Musgrove to Katoa if you really must

With origins most likely off the tables, should I go friend > Cleary? I have 200k ITB and that’s too much money for my liking

Pulling the pin on Cook already mate? Or is it more seen enough with Hess

Hoping these guys who got out of the blocks fast in RD 1, trip and fall flat on their faces.

I would sell Aekins & Wiliame but there's sfa choices out there at their price range so you might have to sell Lomax instead of Wiliame. How big is your bank balance.

In regards to Guler and Katoa, If I am going to get one this week and one next week which should I choose? Both will be in my 17. Does it really matter which one I pick? I can get both, but trying to get Isaako in this week.

Yeah pretty grubby moves if I do say so haha

Musgrove to Katoa is locked in just being greedy i guess

Yeah mate. Reason being bad read on Hess returning to form. Hoping he could get within 20 of Tolo each week and very occasionally match him. A scenario I’ve killed.

My final thinking was;

Cook 60-70
Hess 45 avg with my fingers crossed

Now what I actually think will happen is Tolo is going to occasionally match or beat their scores combined

I really want Cook, but not at the expense of Haas or now Tolo so that’s the call really. Cook is good for 60+ I’m sure but I do prefer him when ARey is not around (which is often)

Far more quick passing and less running (and no kicking) when Rendiggity is around. They are the cook negatives but again not my driving reason. Fkn Hess just looked shocking again (and Tolo his awesome self. Will be weekly top scorer quite often)

I had Walters as my 18th man last week. Thoughts on promoting him to the 17, and if so, at the expense of Mann, Cartwright, Brailey, or JWilliams (or JMK I guess).
