NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 61 - Captain Teddy hype-train edition

Tough loss tonight. Was at the game so I was tryna give weather updates pre game but I forgot my bloody password so couldn't use it on the phone lol. Captain teddy didn't turn out the worst to be fair, I'll take a 118 from my captain on most occasions. Was so close to pulling the trigger on buying Angus, lucky I didn't cause he will probs miss a couple of weeks with an MCL sprain. Will certainly have a look at getting him back in when he returns

also, Papalii is a very strange one, pretty underwhelming scores in games where he doesn't score, which would usually be a huge no-no for a FRF keeper, but the bloke just knows how to find the try-line

Might do a nice sideways trade of Friend to Tauk next week lol.

Hmm, just occurred to me that I have Latrell out for Sironen currently in my Trade tab but it's still able to be undone.

I have Kerr, McIntyre, Averillo, HTF, Talau, Niu and Field already in my squad trying to earn coin. Add Sironen to that and it's a lot of scrap and unless one of these guys gets injured, I guess it leaves no room for Starling next week.

Just wondering now if perhaps I hold the trade this week and bring in Starling next week for Latrell? Is that the smarter play than bringing in Sironen this week?

Reason I disappeared was as I was sick of people like you who is barely around on here having a go at me for having an opinion. I thought on here we can all have an opinion.

So I went off and logged out and enjoyed the rest of the game and then I enjoyed the end of the AFL.

You should go back to where you came from pal until you learn some respect.

As for Teddy the Rorters could barely hold a ball all second half and they gave silly penalties away so it is hard for any fullback to do anything when this happens let alone the best fullback in the world.

He still scored around 60 which is by no means a disaster at all, I took a risk and I’ll cop it on the chin. If Haas now goes and busts out a 75 or 80 so be it and congrats to the ones who stuck the C on him.

As for the Raiders well done to them that was typical Stuart like performance...... they were full of courage and guts and as he said last week he didn’t give a shit if they were written off.

As for Hudson Young he only had 5 hit ups all game, he just does not have a good work rate for mine and he’s very frustrating to watch.

Re Starling not only is he looking like a handy cash out, but he looks like a handy cow here lads as I think Ricky will keep bringing him on around the 30mins mark and giving him 50mins. I think Magoulias in my team sitting there doing fuck all to Starling would be very handy for me, a good use of a trade I reckon.

Kerr or Field could become Starling next week. Same team so you have til Saturday to decide.

Just please shut the fuck up about magoulias...

I should mention that if I trade Latrell to Sironen this week I should have enough cash for Kerr to Ponga next week.

However, if I hold the trade it would be Latrell/Kerr to Ponga/Starling.

Field is an unknown because of Moses' proposed return.

Maybe it is best to bring in Sironen now while I can, free up some cash and wait to see what happens next week. I'd forgotten about it for a sec, but I also have Pearce in my team and I have real reservations about him making it through this weekend. Plenty of issues will arise from that if it happens. I think I just need to play the week that's unfolding and deal with next week next week.

Looks like from the upvotes plenty of people agree with my comment, would like to point out it was said in jest...

I've been around here for years mate, however with the time difference and life commitments I don't have chance to post every day.

Wish I could post more, I'd for sure offer better insight than you (Division 1 vs. Division 10).

I'll keep my fingers crossed for post of the year.

Mate you could hold Latrell and save a trade re bringing Sironen in.

Can you post your full side for me please bro so I can get a better gauge of how you’re looking.

Mate with you having a number of these cheaper players not doing much for ya I’d definitely spare one of them to Starling next week who looks like a handy cow and if my memory is any good you still have around 12 trades left so that’s plenty.

Moses is likely back next week so Field can go to Starling.

Re Sironen it’s really hard to tell how much more he will make over coming weeks, he could get 26mins one week and then 39mins the next. It would take Su’a or Lowe to go down injured or suspended for Siro to get an increased bigger minutes starting role.

If you move Latrell on do you still have centre cover in your squad? If you still have 3 centres in your squad after moving Latrell on it could be worth it Teeth.

If Pearce goes down I’m sure you’ll find a way to bring in Hunt, Moses or DCE.

Kerr has a BE of 14 mate and nearly up to 450k, I didn’t realise he’s averaged 35 this season he’s been a handy cow for ya. Defs hold him another week maybe 2.

I know the first one was in jest but the second one wasn’t needed...... that was you being arrogant for mine.

I couldn’t give a shit about the upvotes and downvotes.

There you go again being a smart arse once more about divisions. I’m in L10 for now but I deserve a bit more respect than that mate and am a better fantasy player than that league and for what I bring to the forum in helping many others posters re their teams and all. I like to think of others not just myself.

Decent little jump for my captain.

I now live in fear of Haas until later tomorrow night.

Cheers Wolfie.

Pretty happy with that from Ted as my skipper considering how atrocious Easts ball security and discipline was that second half.

Not happy re Young though I guessed earlier on I think he’d score something like 32. At least he’s not dropping money I guess but geez he’s testing my patience and if I was to sell him next week he’d probs just go over for a try against Souths and score a 50 ahahahaha.

Havili owners would be very happy with that I imagine. Well done to those who bought him in.

Also well called by Matt who said Starling would come on and stay on. Can’t see any reason why he doesn’t keep seeing this 50mins role. He won’t get a try assist every week but at worst should still score 30ish inbetween some 40’s.

Youre getting smashed in L10

Thought I'd update my avatar to reflect my fantasy season

Oh we both put it on Ted then mate.

I’ll be at work still til the last 25mins of the game tomorrow so I’ll be in suspense lol.

Haas will probs score around 65-70 in 62mins I reckon.

I’m in the top 8 last I checked mate, that’s not getting smashed. Being in the bottom 4 is getting smashed. I was in the top 4 a couple of weeks ago but have dropped a bit it happens.

L10 is not a shit league like some stereotypically think it is. I finished 599th last season and I’m in the top 750 for this season now so can you please explain to me how I am getting smashed please?

Put me on ignore if you don’t like me and get on with it. I don’t wish to cause any harm to you and do not go out of my way to try piss off anyone, it’s not who I am as a person.
