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

Angus and Oates injured last week was a real dick punch. I'm probably going to trade them to Tevaga and Thompson and pray that Robson comes good, failing that he becomes Moses and I'll really need some big luck to stay injury free for a while.

4 trades after this week? Holy hell mate!

Averillo back is fucking awesome for me, I love him and will keep him as long as he's in the team.

Plus it means I can afford to carry Api and Angus this week (got 18 if I hold both of them and both Talau and Avo play)

Not knowing if Young and Fogarty are taking the field is a bit concerning, I'll need to keep an eye on that late mail.

Young will still play, just a matter of where if Bateman returns.

His 8 points will serve you well.

yeah i had a horrid start of the season (was around 20k) and had a lot of work to do to make up ground... pulled myself back into the top 2k..its the price you pay when burning the candle at both ends i guess.... but fk me what a terrible TLT.

I just heard a rumour that Grant's going to be an out as well.

Would be especially shit for me as I only have him and Api as hookers.

He had to go for a COVID test but came back clear this morning.

He’s a decent fantasy CTR prospect scored 30s and 40s with no tries in a shit team. Good signs

Can just scrape 17 together pre-trades, and that's only if Young starts.

Don't think I can afford to keep holding Latrell, looking at Latrell + Young -> Ponga/Tevaga + Starling/Sironen. Fogarty and Luai both get another week.

Good news is that Moses is back and Talau keeps his spot even with Jennings fit.

okay gonna go Young>Starling

Im just gonna have to cop the scores from Butcher and Mata'utia and hope 1 of them gets a start next week.

gonna have Api,Fermor and Niu all in the NPR

have 5 trades left which isnt ideal but it is what it is, i have 264k itb and will hope for a kind TLT next week.

There’s a few posters on here who won’t like the Liuk of that that second pun...

Brailey to Taupau still the plan, was looking at Jazz but would need to lock in a second trade

Sweating (not really) on the following with regards to sticking or twisting on second trade

Angus Diagnosis - what does this mean for the widow
Niu Diagnosis - Would mean two long term red dots if serious....its a bit early at this stage
Young/Bateman - Seems a bit frivolous to trade out someone who's playing if this TLT is a sign of things to come (I think it might be)

I think that we might see a few more guns get a rest against 'weaker' teams to help get over niggles etc. so carrying too many red dots could be a risky long term proposition.

Can Friend owners still afford to offload him?
