NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 27 - No really, Shibasaki was dropped!

Cracked 1000 in both VSDT & NRL I don't think I need to trade. I might still be drunk. Question is how do you turn Shitbasket into Turbo ??

3 trades planned this week unless something blows up. 2xcashies 1xPonga in for Cotric, Walters & Shiba

Is it time to make moves like Horsburgh>JTB?

Only obvious outs for me are Williams and Shiba, spose I've got to wait on teamlists for Aubbs.

Big ups to Lomax for continuing to put up 40s but when does the dream end?

Love the Cotric purple patch ride and dump. Called it pre season, fair play!

Hopefully when Mitchell is cheaper and moves back to CTR

This was predicted once we saw how high scoring the round was

Magic number round 1 - 14979
Round 2 - 14466
Round 3 - 12647

That is a massive drop due to the high scoring (and total value of players on field was a lot less than rounds 1 or 2 as well)

Trying to work out how to raise the cash to bring in Fifita once he's back.

Turpin/Randall might have to come in just for some quick cash gains. :/

BEs

I've used a magic number if 14,000, lower than what the season started as, but much higher than last week, on the assumption last week was an outlier, even accounting for new rules

At this stage I am thinking.

Knight -> Aubbs (Gives me Wiliame as CTR/WFB cover)
Walters/Kennedy -> Tedesco

Means I wont be able to look at Cleary but with Croft/Mann and Drinkwater to cover I should be okay. Having Aubbs also gives me Wiliame as cover. So I will only lack a 2RF cover

Thanks Milchy

I should probably hold Walters and Cotric another week. Hmmm. I want Ponga though!

Players of interest for me this week;
Capewell
Ponga (moving Drinkwater into the halves)
Cashie
Cashie

Trade outs are another question;
Walters - Probably has 1 more week in him though
Kennedy - Probably another week or two if he keeps the FB spot
Wiliame - Making nice steady cash still
Rudolf - Making money nicely
Luai - Still making money

I honestly have no one to trade out. Is that a sign? Unless there is a cow that pops up who will score well and has good JS do i just stay, no tades. Sitting at 112 and only 136 behind 1st place (wouldve been 102pts behind if i captained Haas instead of Lolo).

I'm getting some whack numbers, really low BE's.. don't know if I have stuffed something up in my scripts along the way.

Actually it's only 17 points difference

The ones on http://footystatistics.com/breakevens.php are in line with what I have, most within a couple of points. If you have stuffed up then i have too

Need to get Knight out. I have 85k spare.

Any suggestions? Pretty much can look into bringing anyone in any position.

1. Could bring in a player like Turpin on my bench - then I'll end up with 5 total starting hookers (Koro, Friend, Brailey, Grant & Turpin).

OR

2. Trade Brailey & Knight for a gun like Twal/Yeo and add S.Crichton as my CTR/WFB coverage - currently have Capewell & Williame only.

Currently have Hoppa, JTB, Cleary and Rudolf on my reserves.

Anyone else who is Haasless goign to bring him in next week.

I have cash to go Knight - Haas, which means I'll probably have to miss out on someother popular player. But with no origin + rule changes + Broncos keep losing forwards I don't think there is any value in waiting.

I've also gone Haas-less. I think the fundamentals of that strategy haven't changed. Lolo still more than serviceable as captain, and while I'd love to have Haas, I can't see much upside value to grabbing him (unless he's going to average over 70 for the whole year... it's possible I guess).
Will he be a ten point better scorer than Cook for instance?

The funny thing is, despite my relatively poor score, I jumped up 20,000 places to around 14,000th. Shows how bad I was going before

Bought Jacob Saifiti after RD1 and definitely didn’t expect 120k in price rises and now a -14BE!!

Small victories are the best sometimes

Anyone else buying S.Crichton?
