NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 63 - Stalling of the Robson train, Choo Poo

my tv broke wrote:Green is gone, confirmed.

Was told last week that he was gone. He wanted to coach one last game to guide young players  (guess that means Asi) - source Riccio

Hmm, maybe Robson needs holding until we know how everything pans out.

I know it has been about 13 years since the Titans joined the comp and I am not sure if there was such thing as Fantasy back then but if there was does anyone know how the whole Bye thing worked? If the NRL are serious about bringing in a Perth/second Brissy team into the comp there will be a bye every week. That would really kill some people who load up on certain teams.

Made it very difficult in 2006 comp Milchy ran. I didn't take it too seriously so didn't really look at byes, but were a few weeks I had 4 red dots before injury/suspension

Would be nice for Paix to cement the spot somehow, a nice wee fantasy gift.

Was thinking Luai > Asi but I already have Talau who can jump into CTR for Niu, the 230k sure is nice though.

Isn't Turpin due back this week??

Ethan Lowe and James Roberts both out for long periods, 10+ weeks.

Roberts Pec
Lowe needs neck surgery

Tommy T looking at a Round 12-13 return. You'd be a bold one to take a punt on him again though.

Bailey Sironen?

If Avo is in this week, I may pick-up Starling instead of Asi.
I'm not really expecting it to happen though

Guessing Sironen should get a starting spot then

Murray will probably go back to the edge unfortunately for his owners

I find it amusing that Green getting fired has been mentioned, but not 1 comment on it from anyone. Coaches being fired is really normal this season, Siebold hanging on by his finger nails too. If the Broncos don't fire him now, they will miss out on the pick of the coaches that are available to all the other teams that are on the hunt at the moment.

Wonder if a new coach will bring back the best in Lolo, was the worst I have seen him play in the last couple of weeks. Had guys like Yeo breaking his tackles.

Any suggestions guys? Was thinking of Young and Luai out for Starling and Hunt. Also depends on the Angus injury too I guess

Listening to Benno talk about Sironen he seems to like the kid which is a good sign, and Murray has been killing it at lock. If Murray does go to the edge though, who plays lock? I guess Bayley could! Haha wishful thinking.

50 minutes from Sironen at lock will do me just fine

I'd be surprised if Wayne moves Murray back to the edge.

Siro in for Young could be a great trade.

Current filth situation

Rank 500ish
$96k bank
9 trades. Not planning to make any this week

Grant
Haas, Fotu
Taumalolo, Carrigan, RFM
Cleary, Hunt
Maubbs, Crichton
Tedesco, Ponga, Best

Friend, Koro, McCullough, Luai

Averillo, HTF, Niu, Musgrove

Assuming Maubbs is named to cover Angus. If not, I bring in HTF and move Best to centres.

didn't watch the game on the weekend but I thought some-one said he moved to the edge after Lowe went off? considering the Rabbits went on a run after that, i wouldn't think it would be unlikely

Did the mustard go bad because it wasn't left in the fridge like it's supposed to be?

Are we where we are because of where we have been ? ... ermm.....

No it was a fridge bound condiment, but tastes to bitter. Good if you need to regurgitate though.

Nice timing for my team if it plays out that way

May do Best to Sironen and Pearce to Hunt. Gives me some bank for Luai to Twal next week. Will just have to run Farnworth/HTF as my wfb3 for a bit . Really hoping to see S Mat named to start tomorrow
