NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 47 - At Least Scott Drinkwater didn't go large again

filthridden wrote:Butcher has a high-ish BE. I think it's worth waiting a week to see if a) he gets the start at lock and b) what the rotation looks like.

There's every chance he starts and only plays 40-50mins scoring 40-45.

So much value about to come back at 2RF too, Fifita, Tevaga, Twal

Edit didnt realise he also had broken ribs

Makes Butcher a risky trade, may only get a week or 2.

If I spent as much time on Seek as I did my fantasy trades, I think I'd have a job now.

Maybe it's because I don't have the cash or the trades (or the time or the inclination - that's from a film, can't remember which one) but I'm going to say, Mary will fuck him up one way or another. Stupid bench rotation/he get's smashed from dirty carries as a lock/take your pick.

Hmm. He's the captain of a struggling team and he's playing well so don't think he'll get less mins. However the post since yours that mentioned the value 2rf coming up has me thinking I should just get taupau and wait for the next value option.

Fuck hopefully TLT throws up something else interesting to weigh up as a third option haha

I've done the whole X player will be the beneficiary of Roosters minutes before and been burned. It is a lot of outs for them though.......

Think of all those transferable skills you are learning like:

attention to detail: counting the exact number of missed tackle busts in an 80 minute game
good communication: shouting at the tv screen when latrell posts 18 points and gets sin-binned for his troubles
problem solving: getting rid of jack williams

Let's not forget the easiest part of any coach's job, the cutting:

You flat out or lost interest pm? Been very quiet this year.

Working more night shifts makes it hard to watch games live. Still lurking though, and pinching ideas from the kind folk here

A shining light in the misery that has befallen my team.

Dark times

Definitely thinking of putting the brakes on with trades and waiting on those guys like Moses, Twal, Fifita

Drinkwater > RTS can be locked in this week.

Future ideas:
JMK > Moses
Leilua > Twal/Fifita

Watch for RTS at judiciary. Shoulder charge

Yeah was hoping to bring one or two of them in, but I need someone now unless I want to play short

I’ve decided to keep Drinkwater. Somehow i think having a HLF/WFB backup at 17/18 will come in handy come seasons end. Hoppo will become RTS either this week or next depending on charge

Hey team been lurking for a couple of weeks with this being my first fantasy season.

Per the above, has anyone considered Hughes as a cut-price half with good coverage? Especially with Munster out his short-term workload should be decent. Not seen him mentioned so maybe there's something I'm missing but he seems like decent value.

Welcome mate.

If I didn’t have that kind of coverage already I don’t think I’d chase it and use a trade unless it was a top tier gun obviously and there are none with that DPP.

Hughes may see an uptick for a month but will probably go back to a 35 point average when Munster returns, I suppose though if you have the trades and need that coverage then i suppose it’s okay just not ideal.

Hi mate and welcome! Hughes not worth it just a mid ranger. Probably tops out around 45 average without Munster if he takes on more, not enough IMO

Does Papy get more attacking ball without Munster? Yummy
