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

What’s everyone’s thoughts on musgrove? I need a 212k-248k cow to fund teddy

I passed on Yeo and Twal for the same reason. I think long term they won't sustain their scoring. I could well be wrong (Yeo possibly the one I'll regret most) but with limited trades and funds sometimes you have to make gut calls on who to pick and who you will overlook

I grabbed both in the same week, looking for consistent, high scores each week. Held off on WFBs who are much more volatile, eventually Ponga or Teddy will have 2 crappy scores in a row and be available for their current price again. Yeo and Twal won't have the same low floor (short of injury) and expect them to increase in value, then maintain it much easier.

Not the best time to trade him out, but never a time to trade him in after having him stinking up my team the first couple of weeks.

Already started with and sold him. Hate this shenanigans

Do we know how long Wiliame is out for?

Based on form, the season

I am stuck on two options really: 40k ITB

Brailey and JMK out (Paix to Half), HTF and Teddy in (WFB = Drink, Pap, Teddy)

Brailey and Williame/Kennedy out, Best and cow in.

I don’t want to watch Teddy go large without him but also feel like I could be missing decent coin and decent scorer of Best.
Current centres Cape and Lomax

Approximately 5000 people have traded Musgrove out since round 1. Certainly you would be bucking the trend if you want to bring him in.

No.

If you already have him. Hold.

If you don't have him, definitely don't bring him in.

Trade: Mann ---> Fotuaika

Haas, Fotuaika
Taumalolo, Leilua, Katoa
Moses, Paix

Coming off the bench imo Rudolf won't beat Paix .

Thanks mate. I will keep an eye out for if Dearden is a late inclusion on the bench.

As I posted above if Mann starts and scores 40pts he makes near 40k which I'm not prepared to miss out on

Has anybody not have Capewell and not planning on bringing him in this week? Or is he a must have?

Capewell is looking good so far.

Don’t bring him in cause he might be dropped the following week?

Think I've finally settled on bringing in Teddy over Cleary. Worst case if Cleary gets out of reach price-wise it should still be possible to get a fallen gun like Johnson, Milf, Pearce or Reynolds. Miss Teddy now and it could be difficult.

Plus bringing in Cleary leaves me with Moses, Cleary, Paix, Fogarty and Luai. Too many halves.

If Fotu scores 50 then he makes about the same. I make the trade now, I get 15 extra points. I make the trade next week, I get less points and I limit myself to one trade next week.
Its a gamble as I'm betting Fotu scores well and Mann doesn't but I think its a realistic expectation.

Drink and Mann for HTF and CM9.  Leaves no bank.

CM9
Haas Carrigan
Hess Horse Lucy
Moses Paix
Capewell Crichton
Pappy Lomax Nofo

Koro Grant Katoa Tolo

Luai Rudolf HTF Wiliame

Going balls out guns and cows I think.  Sick of this midrange shit.

I like it mate but I’d maybe want a week of looking at HTF first.

Not convinced he'll score well as a starter and he certainly didn't score well off the bench.
On top of that, yes - there's a risk he loses his spot in the 17 altogether.

There are better bets out there.
