NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 57 - Ikuvalu Highlight Reel

Fermor Fermor Fermor.

A great trade in if somehow he ends up usurping Hipgrave.
So much risk though

Exactly mate. How tf have they not credited that. Unbelievable

Seibs is delusional if he thinks the opposition is concerned about what team he fields.

If he's actually making a significant change (Boyd finally dropped or Dearden at 7) its not exactly going to surprise anyone, its more surprising to continue to name the same players. Any other changes would be minor that no one really cares about anyway. I suspect its more about hiding it from the media than the Bulldogs but I just don't see what that achieves. Its bizarre, really.

I need to trade Burns out since he is worth a decent amount of money and won't be playing again. I don't have any cash itb so I can't upgrade to anybody decent and I don't think there are any good options of players around or slightly below his price. So I think I'll just downgrade this week and use the extra cash for next week. I was thinking that Field looked like the best option out of the cash cows this week but I'm not 100% sure

I also have Paix and Musgrove sitting in my emergency who aren't urgent sells but aren't making any money. I was just wondering if it would be worth trading Paix (since he has the highest value) to Fermor/Coates or whether I am better off saving the trade this week and waiting for a better cash cow. I don't know much about Fermor but he is popular however I would've thought he is risky and could lose his spot. And Coates might be a slow burn and it might be too late so maybe he isn't worth the trade.

Any advice would be much appreciated

BRONCOS BAIT AND SWITCH? Brisbane moved their Captain’s run 90 minutes earlier without telling the media. Seibold playing mind games with the Bulldogs on his team? #NRL
@9NewsQueensland

Plenty of other reasons that Siebold wouldn’t want his team being around the media, asking awkward questions and putting more pressure on them

I read somewhere that Paix was coming into the side tomorrow but off the bench so not sure if its worthwhile holding. He'll probably play bugger all.

That's irrelevant. The clubs have to put up x number of players for media every week, its part of the every clubs obligation, they can't say no to it. Otherwise, the media is on the other side of the fence (where anyone can go and stand and watch training)

die bold.. ?

Predictive Autocorrect. Interesting to see just how predictive :p

What does Dearden need to do to get a start? Broncs golden draw about to end.

Although with Talau and BJ out, Nofo should be seeing a lot of hit ups out of his own end tonight for plenty of work.

The Hammers score just rubs it in even more.

You have a 2nd playable centre this week though hey ?

Hoffman says he was told to prepare as though he was playing, he said he was keeping an eye on Talau during the session and he thought that he looked all good, but at the end of the session the physios ruled Talau out, and coach told him he is going to debut.

Hard to tell if Talau will miss more than one week really.

Not that he would know but if he looked okay, may come back sooner than later.

@Rev Lomax.  He looked okay after his knock last week, so not concerned about him not playing.  I think he'll be sweet.

For a moment I thought it was a new nickname Potatohuyzen I can get on board with, but Diebold is a bit dark even for me.

Someone asked on facebook and this was the response:

“All live scores are indicative only and final scores are only available at the completion of the Round when the official statistics are locked in by the official NRL statistics provider. If the Official stats people saw the game the way you did, then expect it to be updated”

So let’s hope Teddy gets that blatant line break.

I don't own him but that's as clear as they come for line breaks. But I'm still waiting for Cook's clear as day tbs a few weeks ago. And Jeff Robson's try assist from 2014

Top 100 6%
Top 500 3%
Top 1000 2.7%

Great chance to move up if you had him in your team. Pretty sure the ownership around here is much higher than that.

Seems McCullough was the more popular choice that many brought in around the same time, at around 17% across those categories.

I had to many fires to put out so couldn’t get him and I badly wanted MoFo back then and to bring Murray in a couple of weeks ago with the E. Katoa injury.

Wow being a Rorters fan I was certain you’d own Teddy! Oh well you’ll be smart enough to make up for it in other ways.

Bloody hell Tedesco owners are whingers
