NRLFF 2006 Fantasy thread - Round 15 - Hayne and BMoz, Where are you?

Tough round, I didn’t have a player score more than 50 and still wasn’t a complete disaster.

What a horrendous week that was. How many shit scores can one team get in one week? As many as I did, is the answer. Everyone I have just went shit. Only one I was kind of happy with was Steve Turner scoring a 50 without a try. How the balls did he do that?

Oh, and Big Bill Mason - the guy I had penned in to punt this coming week - did well too. Now I guess I hold? I don't know.

Just regarding Hindy. I had something like 7 Origin players to get rid of before Origin one and I went with Hindy as I thought his BE is the highest and he should stay stable during the period. Of all other Origin players I had, I don't think one has made barely a cent. Hindy has absolutely destroyed his price and now I won't be able to get him back in. What a fucking moronic blunder I made there.

Yeah, just want to say a special little "fuck you" to that week.

Oh wow, must have been lots of mid ranges. You out scored me when I have 5 50+ scores.

I had 3 Players get exactly 50 and a lot of 35-45 type scores. Some of them building on that would nice, yet I feel I’ve had a bit of an escape here.

Funny, I grabbed Farah for the same reason.
I'm looking forward to you having a million dollars worth of Hindy sat on the pine (and him not putting out any 70's/80's this week)

Class, living in each other’s head! I know mate nothing but gold since I got him, could be a season swinger missing him for next 2 rounds

Fullback maybe suits him

It's from the great Sun Tzu's The Art of War Fantasy
“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles."

Hindmarsh has been supreme. Him and the GOAT are definitely top of my IN list once the R17 is gone.

Was at the top of my sell list for this week, but I think I'll need to reconsider.
Fullbacks have largely been trash in this version (Inglis aside).
Schifcofske's been decent, but seems to be building as the season goes on (love that he matched CS9's score this week)

Yeah, that's why I was surprised too. I actually thought, based on a lot of other fullbacks in this format, he'd actually score worse at fullback.

He's definitely good at sticking around in a team, though. Just when you're ready for him to depart he reels you back in.

With the new benchmark of 45+ points Cameron Smith with his 44 drops out of Mr Consistency but Handmarsh 89 & Tongue 50 survive. So it comes down to Hindmarsh vs Tongue.

My Croker trade looked solid enough but lucky he nabbed a try. Should have went with Tilse. He's in this week, no question.

Both of which I didn't start the season with and took 8 rounds to bring in Tongue and have yet to be able to get Hindy in. I think that shows the biggest mistake I've made this year; delaying to get true guns in and worrying about byes on a true keeper.

Ben Kennedy a true gun as well. Minus his injury game and he’s averaging a tick under 60 with only 2 tries

Hindmarsh has a bye and then Origin for the next 2 rounds, so he could win this without playing another premiership game !!

Good point I might suspend it when 1 or both miss a game.
