NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 60 - Less trades than rounds left edition.

I would go Jurbo over N. Brown because Jurbo is consistent with his scores & plays 80 mins whereas although N. Brown is awesome his discipline/the way he plays is an issue & he'll not play 80 mins every week. He probably played 80 mins last game due the J. Paulo not returning.

So you wouldn’t see Yeo to Jake Turbo as to sideways?

Gives me the following with 9 trades left:

Grant
Haas MoFo
Murray J. Turbo Lucy
Cleary Pearce
S. Crichton Niu
Teddy Ponga Pap

Koro Taupau Carrigan Young
B. Sironen Latrell Hammer Magoulias

His score was probably just exacerbated by fact that 80 NRL points scored meant not as much time in middle for forwards to gain base stats

His lower mins are of slight concern but I am giving him at least another 1-2 weeks before worrying

Not interested in Hunt? You have no halves cover

yep. 14 tries and a penalty goal meant.. what.. 20 minutes of  game time was one team standing under their goal posts?

Rabbits21 wrote:
Very true, but do we think Hunt will keep playing 80?

He had 2 scores of 30ish in 60mins a few weeks ago which is my only concern.

Maybe I should give Yeo another week and watch Hunt again this week? Should still be able to afford it next week.

Yeo at centre though if Whare is out this week worries me.

They paid $1m a year for Hunt. Commentators have been saying for years that Hunt is a hooker. McInnes plays almost just as pivotal a role as 13 in that team and can still play 80. I think they've found Hunt's groove and that's where he will stay

How do you see him scoring from here, he does not mind some missed tackles, I know that.

Upvote for Ponga, Downvote for D. Edwards.


The obvious choice is Ponga, although Edwards & the Panthers have a very enticing run home, playing only 3 of the current top 8 teams in the final 10 games (Eels, Tigers & Raiders) - With the only current standout side being the Eels.

And with trades being limited, and potential for upgrades in other positions, that 140k spare from Ponga-Edwards is really intriguing.

Ponga proven fantasy gun, although Edwards looks to be the goods, especially with Penrith firing this season.

My backs would turn out to be:

S. Crichton / Niu or Talau
Paps / Teddy / Ponga or Edwards

Thoughts would be appreciated.

Could you just run:

Niu/Talau
Pap/Ted/Crichton

And then get Ponga once his price drops instead? No need to get Edwards in if you already have a playabe backline

Could do that, although I’m planning to trade Latrell & Wakeham this week, might as well get my back line sorted. Not keen on Mitchell much like some others in this thread.

Which would you go for? Edwards defo more risky, but could pay dividends?

Just wanted to commend you on your formatting here Soylent.  Even though the left and right alignment buttons have been around since day 1, I do believe this is the first time the Forum has seen them used in their fullest potency.

Stunning and brave mate

I wanted to get them on the same lines but that was a step too far. Is it that much to ask for some tabulation options??!

If Penrith like someone said have easier games coming up then that does not bode well for Yeo to rack up a big tackle count.
