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

my tv broke wrote:Thinking out loud, I think I've come to the conclusion that I will sell Mann, regardless of team news.

My only other obvious trade outs are Levi (has to go), and Wiliame (worthless)

(due to centres dropping like flies) i have to buy a CTR or WFB this week. Levi + cash doesn't afford me Teddy or Ponga.. but it could get me Tommy T, and hold on to a trade.

I'm thinking of burning the 2nd trade though to go a little cheaper (eg Latrell or similar price ctr), but also bring in Jake T (or similar). Levi + Mann out = Latrell + Jake T in

The way I see it Paix can hold down Mann's spot for a few more weeks and looks like scoring to the same ability anyway, but Jake T is a big upgrade (assuming 55 average or potential to go higher with new rules).

Any thoughts?


Its basically a case of playing Mann + Paix (looped with Luai/etc), or Paix + Jake Turbo

Absoloute steal. Hey Mate what are your thoughts on Best v Latrell v Hoppa

Hoppa has the historical stats, So does Latrell minus GK can he makes it up? So those 2 you know have the ability to be guns in the CTR. Huge question is can Best maintain

Lol. I mean, everyones doubts around Latrell are fair and valid, and that's why I consider it a punt on him.

Welshy wrote:
I mean worse case with Latrell is he stays where he is, so requires a trade later on. I really don’t think FB role is good for his scoring as CTR and missing GK is a fair amount of points
to make back. He’s got 2 absolute stinkers out the way already, but I look at fantasy differently. If I go the more expensive CTR route and bypass Fotu, I’ll be getting Latrell with tempered expectations

Holy Moly wrote:Right now for me, it's Wiliame for Latrell. He's a proven gun with a decent BE. Two games just isn't enough for me with best. I know he's likely to make 100k but geez I'm burning through trades and unless Latrell goes horrible for weeks on end, he's staying in y side.

Latrell got 8pts a game average last season for goal kicks.   He just got near half his points last game in TBs. He's only got 10 TBs or more 3 other times in his career(11 twice)

Yep this an important point. I've just been looking through the stats and I've removed Latrell from my mind, it's now Best vs Hoppa for me.

Any thoughts on if Hoppa is likely to stay at FB ?
