NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 64 - Anyone Got Any More of Those 4 Trade Rounds edition

That Pamfus 1 to 17 potentially lends itself to Yeo going back to an 80 minute man.

Pain will be pissed.

Was it a knee Mikaele came off with a few weeks ago as well WT2K?  Looked like he'd be out for a bit but then backed up the next week; can't remember, but went up the tunnel after just coming on in the game I'm thinking of.

I think you're right. Lately I can't remember what's happened yesterday, unfortunately or fortunately...

Angus for me if I was you Fingers. Two reasons:

a) Crichton's 5 Round average of 61 is without a single Try and includes the injury affected game;
b) cos' Fingers...

Start two, loop two

Sironen, young, Joliffe, Starling

Sironen, young, Joliffe, Starling

I would do in that order, starting first two and looping last two

However you may have to see draw depending on your red dot (as if you are using Niu for example, he locks out before Raiders & Titans)

Shit haven't got the money for Hunt. Anyone for Asi? What's the prognosis on Drinkwater and Morgan.

As a Tigers fan would have loved for Moses and Matto to be out another week. But Devil's Advocate-if Madge has actually legitimately instilled some genuine grit in our lads then this game is shaping up to be the one for the players to prove it.

Thoughts on marsters at centre as a fallen gun? 193k less than starting price and has never averaged less than 37.5 in a season as starting centre

And there endeth the speculation. Damn, I was still hopeful they'd rest Moses for one more week for good measure.

Oh well, hope this means he's well and truly good to go.

With Koro out and being able acquire Ponga without much fanfare, it now opens the door for a possible return of Moses into my team in a couple of weeks. Gotta admit, though, this recurring injury probably makes me a little less keen than the start of the season. Guess we'll see how he goes.

Without Googling, Morgan is only a couple of weeks away and Stinky is a couple of months still.

Obviously enticing if things turn around for him, but at the moment I can't see any appeal at all in him.

Until he turns it around, he could be 100K less before being worthy of consideration. Need to see signs of life before taking a punt on that.

Yeah, Moses must be 100%. I'll still potentially hold Field another week as he can't lose money now.

Tevaga is great for fantasy, not sure hes a starting lock though. Said the same last year.

I still want to get him

That's a huge if mate

Yep, me too. Field was initially first out in a bid to grab cash for Ponga next week, but I reversed all my trades after the Koro news.

Now I'll dump Koro and Niu first and trade Field next week, or when I need to trade next (hopefully I can have a week off).

Ive posted in the TU/TD thread about hunt vs tevaga would be good to get some feedback!!

Tru dat.

I voted for Hunt. Just seems a bit more trustworthy to me... assuming he keeps this hooking role, obviously.

I like Tevaga but he seems unpredictable to me. Where will he play each week, and for how many minutes? Plus he has that injury history.

Both seem like good options, but if two players are likely to score similarly I personally prefer the "safer" option and Hunt seems safer, to me.

Thoughts on MCK? He's 238k. Is he the third choice 2rf at the tigers? Weighing up him or aubs as a trade in for Niu.

What angus’s prognosis? NRL physio says 3-6 weeks, with the majority of players in that timeframe coming back in around 4. Fox league has it at 6, is it worth trading him? Can trade him and friend to hunt and tevaga, thoughts? Cheers

Koro for 3 weeks would be a hold for me given the importance of trades. What is this comment about weeks before starting conditioning when he’s injured his elbow? Have their physios not heard of running or cycling?

And is Lowe out for the season? Deciding between sironen and starling but may end up with both anyway after next week
