NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 18 - Ditch the duds thread

Nice. Grant is definitely a Trade in cheeky play for bench shenanigans this week

I'm going to ride with the rubbish centres I have at the moment and wait for some previous ctr guns to drop some cash and bring them in. Bringing in unproven centres after a 1 game sample doesn't seem like the wisest decision. They could easily poo the bed while the guy you trade out goes alright.

So if Hess flops you'll bring in Walters, for perhaps 1 week before you trade him out again?

I'll also be trading Musgrove to Grant if Luai guns it.

Hey. Am I allowed to post this here or do I need one of those fancy buttons instead? Not sure what to do. One easy trade is Ese Ese out, for Katoa I guess. Would give me a bit of extra money to trade out Williame perhaps, I wouldn't say Williame is an urgent trade though. I know my backs are weak, but we all know how they score.

Maybe just the one trade then? Thanks for the help. (Current balance is $1K before trades)

I would sell Fusitua to Hughes if you can afford to, Hughes is a massive POD at WFB and has kick metres giving him a good floor. Fus is playing in a likely wooden spoon team and isn't carting the ball back anymore

Su’a or Katoa for last spot on the bench?

Wiliame isnt the issue, when you add a WFB, he becomes your CTR and WFB back up in NPRs. Would be doing something like:
Ese > Katoa
Musgrove > Watkins

Move Shiba to WFB, Wiliame to NPR

I see, damn! I really like the Fus and going back to see his previous scores at CTR, he can score ok, but admittedly they were every so often. I really don't think the Warriors are as bad as people make out, I'm probably just blinded by "It's our year" . Thanks for the tip.

Based on last week... Katoa. Sua against the Broncos this week, so might be primed for a big game though.

If I had to bet my life on it, Katoa. (I support Warriors though)

Hello need some help please thinking of trading out Tom Trbojevic who I know is a keeper but need some cash generating and everyone else is at an awkward price to trade.
Team is as follows:
A.Koroisau
P.Hass (C), L.Knight
J.Taumalolo (VC), D.Fifita, J.Williams
N.Cleary, S.Drinkwater
G.Shibasaki, B.Wiliame
T.Trbojevic, R.Papenhuyzen, W.Kennedy
P.Carrigan, B.Brailey, J.Stimson, B.Walters
J.Luai, T.Rudolf, J.Taunoa-Brown, Z.Musgrove
2K salary left lol
So want some cash coming in and thinking of trading T.Trbojevic out for L.Leilua and Z.Musgrove for E.Katoa. That would leave me with 109K salary for next week to give Stimson and others some time to make money and I can possibly bring in T.Trbojevic back in when he goes down in price and hopefully fix up centres later. Not sure if there are any other options?

I can then sleep on it, make the trade or just play Luai if I decide against it. I still think Walters is worth it, I really beleive he'll play in the halves until Brooks is back but might as well trade him for Musgrove if need be other than Hess this week as Hess' BE is reachable and can be traded next week.

Mary confirming my statement from earlier. Lomax back to fullback next week unless Dufty has a blinder.

Best news ever. Im a dragons fan and love Dufty (when dragons have ball in hand). But hope he just does okay this weekend so Lomax stays in FB (Just for my fantasy team )

Fuck it, I'm bringing Cotric in for Aekins. Playing the fixtures with an eye on a jumbled season

Like it.

Looked at GWilliams for same reason. Nice little fixture run this

I'd be holding Tommy if you have him. If it's purely for cash generation, I'd hold and wait for Grant next week. Looking at the team as a whole, it's pretty good as you've got the 3 headed monster in Lolo, Haas and Fifita.

Thoughts on the team guys? I just traded out Stimson for Katoa and have 134k left which looks very appealing. Should I use it to upgrade someone like Levi or Williams or something or just leave it? Any suggestions appreciated as always
