Booshka another Fotuaika esque value play

How many weeks will people wait for Tedesco now? Won’t drop in a while and missing 50/60s in WFB

BS was good at 9 but Storm did look better when CS went back to the middle, and Jacks was decent when he came on. Might be back to usual next week. Having said that Brandon at 9 could carve up weaker defences than the Roosters without needing Cameron's guile.

Ill probably have to wait it out. Need to make some money so as to afford him.

Happy I waited on Butcher. Still interests me, and I think he will get better as the games go on- but certainly won’t get away before Liu comes back to solve some pertinent questions. Should still be hanging around 500k when he starts pumping consistent 50s- super value

Was impressed with his minutes, more than I expected, with some time at lock as well.

Wow what a game. We deserved to lose with those errors that lead to the 2 tries then Toops dropping those high balls in the clutch. But fark me Klein had a shocker tonight. 10-5 penalty count in Melbournes favour and only 1 set restart for us tonight. Post covid we have had an average 3.3 secs play the ball, tonight shot up to 3.7 lol... wonder why? Storm been getting away with murder in that ruck for years now, nothing changed. Bad loss for us though, again we deserved to lose - 19 errors isnt acceptable

I gave up waiting to get him for 100k cheaper. Used Twal to pay for him instead

Need him before Roosters great draw from Round 11 and short of injury, won't be dropping in price before then.

Penalty count was not in our favour so therefore the refs were bad. Classic rugby league ya love to see it

10-5 though mate. Not including set restarts. When you were watching that game did you really feel as if we were twice as bad as them discipline wise? Cmonnn

Here;s the official response to trade-a-palooza complaints

The 2020 Covid-altered season has thrown up some challenges that required us to make adjustments to the game particulars. We purposefully minimised these prior to the Round 3 recommencement to maintain the character and game-play of NRL Fantasy as best we could.

The significant adjustment was to the number and per-round maximum for trades. Our rationale was to adjust proportionately with scope to alter if circumstances required. Since then we have had a few weeks of play and seen the results, we believe those circumstances are happening now and have decided to make one further alteration as we believe it reflects a better overall level of trades for the updated 2020 season without any significant disadvantages. Adding two(2) extra trades to the season total, with four(4) max in Round 8 is the best and most-fair way we have to do this.

The unforeseen levels of injury interruption have shown our initial trade reduction to be slightly too big, so this additional small adjustment is being made as thousands of teams have been unable to field 17 the past two weeks through no fault of their own. We believe that those teams who were fortunate enough to avoid that fate are not being disadvantaged as they can use or bank the extra trades to shore up their advantage.

We are aware that, although small, it is a significant change and that, despite our explanation, some will feel righteously aggrieved by it. If that is you, we ask you to give us the benefit of the doubt. We hope that time may well prove us right.

Thank you for being passionate about NRL Fantasy. Good luck with the rest of the 2020 season and please stay safe.

Just a quick public service announcement to remind everybody that Brett Morris has scored more Supercoach points than anybody else this season and is second in price only to Tedesco.

Silly game.

I'll be taking Best rather than Papy's 31

I was feeling really down with 10 mins to go, we looked absoutely dead in the water but Hughes actually stepped up, and HOLY SHIT PAPY I FUCKING LOVE YOU <3 Had no idea he could even kick field goals. Plus Friend giving away that penalty was fucking awesome, love you for that Friendy.

Apologies for my ramblings but deadset I am over the fucking moon.

My fantasy team did pretty well too, had Papy, Teddy and Flanno in there

A great night all round and a good old lol@Rorters which doesn’t happen often at all!

That too, I don't love beating any team as much as the Chooks, 2018 is still fresh in my mind and I love watching them lose, especially in situations like this where we had no right to be in it the way we were playing.
