NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 43 - Another one bites the dust

Yep, always a challenge. Can't win the thing? How about winning your NRL teams comp? No, how about top 100, or your personal best, or avoiding your personal worst? Or winning your h2h comp etc etc. Or even just being able to say, well at rd 10 I was 15,000th and managed to finish in the top 5000 or whatever. Hook in friends!

Can field a team of 17 and give myself some flexibility for any future rounds like this with:
Twal > SMat for my 3rd 2RF this week, then becomes CTR next week
Kennedy > Ponga

Means I have 4 of my back 5 set, bringing in 2 keepers this week, with Mitchell as WFB3, just Teddy to bring in.

Get 3 players back next week fortunately, assuming Katoa is just 1 week out.

Niu has a big BE, and will almost certainly still be $212k next week

Unless you need him for cash this week, its going to be Ok to wait.

I would be mildly suprised if he starts at fullback every week for the rest of the year

(also a humblebrag I'm in 10th had ulterior motives in looking this up, have 5 dots and no Teddy so him being rested would be my personal preference )

Mate I've just posted a couple times today, not on Rabbits level When it comes to security with young outside backs at the broncos it looks like Darius is the only lock which tells me all I need to know about bringing in any of the others. Ask me again when Staggs is back though

Im not bothered with his score this week mate just need near base with some security to generate cash for upgrade. Although if I go JTurbo I can probably get Talau in

I mentioned before that Manly have the easiest run home IMO (Tigers, Dogs, Titans, NZ final 4 rounds) so not a bad play to get him in now when everyone else runs out of trades by then to bring in the usual suspects at Sea Eagles

Do we get to choose which years averages we keep? That would be nice

But that's a reasonable approach, ... I haven't locked anything in yet.
