NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 33 - If Stephen Crichton gets injured this week, I'm going to cry

I was tossing up between HTF and Young T but just read this in the late mail article re Young T.. Sounds like his job security is very shaky and could end up at centre? Or do we think that is not how it would be reshuffled once Roberts is back?

No changes to the 17 for a winning Titans team, but playmaker Tyrone Roberts (ankle) is named on the reserves and could come into the side. If he was slotted in at fullback, Phillip Sami would likely to shift to the wing with Brian Kelly, Dale Copley and Young Tonumaipea to jostle for the two centre positions.

Didn’t he play at centre in the last game?

Any love for Sean Keppie? Has hit a couple of 30s in the last 2 weeks. 33 sees him make 100k in the next 3 weeks. Probably better job security than other options. Seems good for 30ish mins per game. Anyone remember what happened in round 2 where he only got 15 mins? Taupau and AFB both played their normal mins in that game.

Otherwise it's probably Fogarty/Clark and I'm not that keen.

Hey Lads I have found myself in quite the dillema. What trades would you guys suggest with my team looking like this. I have no center or WFB Cover 

Mccinnes
Haas Twal 
Luci Carrigan Katoa
Moses Cleary
Willame Crichton
Drinkwater Paps Isaako

Cook Korisau Grant JTB

Luai Paix Hopoate Rudolf.

Any help would really be appreciated

Oh so he did. I didn't realise.

I'm settled on going HTF

Man I wish I knew what was happening with lolo

Was hard watching McInnes kill it last week again after being a good boy and stopping my itchy trade finger from swapping them. If lolo is out I don’t think I would hold another week but by the time we know it would be too late to captain mcinness.

This game is a pain in the ass sometimes

At least that sims post helps me not waste another centre trade on fui. Watch him score 70 this weekend now though..

Can someone sell me on talau? Does he have anything close to resembling job security?

Yeah, Tolo to MC9 is really tempting me also mate.

I expect HTF to be the better buy. Even Hampton was scoring tries on that wing.

If I were looking at a rookie, he's the one I'd get for sure.

I could bypass Turbo and go absolutely balls out and go;

Drinkwater - HTF
Mann - MC9

Keeping Tolo in my squad, and run Paix in my halves.

Hmmm......

I've been switched back to Latrell after everyone's uncertainty around Fui...

[quote="wolfking"]I need to know about Mann.  I have enough to go Mann to Turbo in a single trade so I'm leaning that way.  [/quote/

I bit the bullet Wolfie concerning Mann. Already have Turbo so Cleary comes in for Mann ( A regrettable loss of coin ) and the Cowboys
rookie flyer comes in for the lackluster J. Hopoate. Unless there are injury concerns thats me trading for awhile until the cows fatten.
I did not see your last post to me so hello again and good luck with your trades. I know the dangers but putting the C on T.Turbo this round.

Are you sure on C on Turbo? He needed 2 tries and 3 try assists to hit 72. Haas gets that in his sleep.

HTF didn't return any results on footystatistics.com
I might have to talk to the manager about that.

Current team:

Koroisau

Haas Fotuaika

Tuamalolo Leilua Carrigan

Cleary Croft

Capewell Wiliame

Trbojevic Papenhuyzen Drinkwater

Horsburgh Grant Katoa Paix

Luai Hopoate Kerr Rudolph

Currently thinking of going Hopoate to Fuimaono and Drinkwater/Croft to best then will ride them out and trade to centre keeper and WFB keeper when they hit top price.

this right here is what's made me go off him, I'm getting Cleary and Best this week

I love your ballsy picks mate. Guess that's why you do so well all the time.

My WAGS team has Turbo so should change it up with my main team. I'm liking the MC9 trade I posted above. Running Paix in the halves for a couple of weeks is risky but would produce a similar average to Mann anyway. Would rather play him over Luai.

Good point but then again you don't get to play the Bronco's every week.

Not 100% convinced that Fui doesn't end up like J Hopoate did, getting dropped early and not making enough cash.
Best is a good buy, but if you want a money maker, then get a genuine cheapie like Clark or HTF rather than Fui who has poor JS. Also, I would highly recommend selling Drinkwater and not Croft, Croft seems much more likely to be a keeper than Drinky does, and did well to score over 20 in a flogging like that. He got 57 in the thrashing by Parra, and I'm holding long term.

If you got HTF and Best, your team could look like this:

Api
Haas, Fotu
Lolo, Lucy, Carrigan
Cleary, Croft
Capewell, Best
Turbo, Papy, HTF

Horseburger, Grant, Katoa, Paix

Luai, Wiliame, Kerr, Rudolf

If you don't want to play HTF, your best bet is probably to just hold Drinkwater and play him, thereby banking a trade that you could use for other things. Drinkwater is a sell soon but I wouldn't sell him to anyone other than a genuine cheapie or genuine gun, and if you can't afford or don't want to play either one, then hold the trade.

And only 1 TB in 72pt game

when does the Cowboys team lost get culled to 17?
