NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 31 - Do peptides increase body temp?

thing that people are missing about Oates to second row is, he's basically being set up to be dropped.

Coates is getting a go on the wing because Oates sucks. Pangai and Glenn back next week, Oates will be lucky to get a go on teh bench.

Oates over Hopo or Bullemor

On the bench? I think Hopoate is a better option - mainly because he's more suited to lock (but can fill in at edge) and can come on for 20 mins and tackle hard/etc.

Are those that are bringing in Cleary or DCE already have Moses and going to run two gun halves from now? I can't see any obvious players for me to move out that would give me the kind of cash for Cleary or DCE within the next couple of weeks. I'm happy with Moses but will likely have to run Drinkwater or Paix with him..

Stoked for bradman but didn’t bring him in because of his quite incredible injury history all through juniors and even this year. For someone built like a brick shithouse he seems to break down a lot. Fingers crossed he’s over that not as he’s developing, and having his breakout season that he is capable of

I have Cleary, looking for a partner for him.

First option is looking for Mann's injury update - if he is out for any length of time can just pull the trigger now. Still got a bit of cash to go so will hold if its only a week or so.

Drinkwater the other option - thought he would go big without Morgan but its not happening - bit of a wasted trade there bringing him in for round 3.

Yeah I've been playing Drinkwater as WFB and Luai at half while Cleary is out, thinking I will be trying to bring in Turbo (or mansour if I can't afford turbo) and then move Drinkwater back to half but he is a slight concern at the moment, hopefully will pick it back up soon and average ok over the season

If Mann is out for a while my ideal trade outs would be him and Guler. If Burton was named with Cleary might have to consider cash grab and get him and Best and wait a week on Teddy. Don't want to sell Pap and I think I should give Drinkwater another week against Warriors

I think Mann injury locks me into HLF + cow, will wait and see but probs just get Cleary back.

Sunday was brutal for me, my lads did fine but everyone else’s lads (Ponga, Horse, Best) went off - so feel I’ve gone from slightly above average to below average. Think I’ll probably drop about 1000 places.

Yeah same plan if Mann is out for more than a week I probably trade him to a better half. But I also have Isaako, Kennedy, Drinkwater, and Croft to also deal with. Not sure who else should be going out.

Bit of confusion around his mins tho - has played 60 in 2 and 50 in 2 and when he plays 50 he hasnt got over 50. What does everyone expect out of him minutes wise with Bateman out for an extended amount of time? Would he be the best option to upgrade Brailey with a spare 130k? Anything helps

I think he’s gonna be the best one to bring in around that 600k mark. I don’t see how he averages any less than 50 at worst. I’m looking at this exact trade too. The DPP makes him even more tempting.

Off topic but does anyone else think these two are the same person? I smell an alt...

Why Croft and Isaako? Surely bigger fish to fry than them? And Drinky

Oates cant be made the scapegoat for playing outside Boyd.


No winger is going to succeed playing outside that muppet.

Mass changes with him being untouched is ridiculous.

Can anyone tell me how the auto emergency works, I missed the cowboys game and left Hess in my side but thought Leilua would move up and I’d get an emergency ?

Best is an interesting one for me. He has a boat load of talent and will be in the conversation for best true centre in the comp in 12 months time. But 4 tries in 2 games is unsustainable for fantasy purposes. I can't remember a true centre averaging over 45 for the season in all my years playing. The list of those that averaging 40+ with no goal kicking can probably be counted on one hand.

I am not one to recommend burning trades at the centre position, but if you have seen enough to think he is a keeper and can handle the roller coaster that comes with the position, you could be getting a centre keeper at 100k under valued. If you are buying him expecting more than a 40 average I see a lot of disappointment in your future

EMG points get added at start of last game

If your line up was Hess 2RF, Leilua INT, then you will get your first EMG as you have 2RF cover

This.

but I feel this year a lot of posters must think the 3/4 round scores are the true indicator of a season average at the expense of yearly historical data.

A lot of trades are being burnt very quickly, Slats would be proud.

I'm down to 21 and already concerned I might run out before I get a team I'm comfortable with, let alone saving trades for injury. You can't chase every flavour of the week
