NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 68 - Buy high, sell injured

How many mins did he play at centre? I didn't see the game, hard to tell going off the interchange timeline.

Would have been about 60 from memory when AJ went off, could be wrong though

Been prancing around the next suburb to where I work 2 minutes away amongst many other places around South East QLD.  I work with the public too so this is serious bullshit and they should be locked up.

Yep it’s unbelievable so bad.

Yeah, it was a horrible Centre stint. Zero nett points for about 30 minutes from memory.

Watching highlights, looks like he got the TA/LBA while at centre from a pass to gagai?

Yeah he was sitting on 30ish points at HT.... then it was nothing for ages... then the TA/LBA

Yes was on 20 points after 20 minutes, moved to center and got a try assist, then just another 10 points the rest of the game at center.

Plan was to go Paix > Randall, and then if Ramien was a lateish out then I'd go Guler > Pompey, but Robelgordo pointed out that doesn't work if Ramien drops out after the warriors have started playing. If Ramein plays was going to go Guler > Moses for my second. (Still working on a plan for if he drops out after Pompey locks out)

Realised I can go Paix + Young to Pompey + McInnes with 0k ITB afterwards. Means I have to start Sironen for the week, and that I miss out on Randall. Also might make it tough to get Moses/Munster next week. Is this a terrible idea?

I need a centre to park in the EMG as cover, and Pompey seems as good as any with reasonable JS and should average 25-30. Smakintyre seems like the only other option, but what's his JS like these days? (Aubo scares me, Boyd scares me more)

Team before trades:

Things I still need:
Upgrade to Young
HLF backup on bench
CTR backup in EMG
Maybe luxury upgrade for Lucy

It seems an ok plan to me - I'm tossing up the CM13 vs MunsterMoses question as well. But missing out on Randall could be irritating when you're short on cash.

The best part is the CM13 will mean your Young/Lucy upgrades won't be position dependent. So pull the trigger?

Aubbs oh what a tangled web you weave.

Only have two fit CTRs in Talau and Crichton. Is Aubbs worth adding as a straight swap from Paix?

No

Unless you are happy spending that much money on a guy who is a high chance of having a bench role for the run home

Well that was easy haha. Maybe just easier to trade one of them when/if they break

The fact Aubo has DPP and would even have a bench role at all could be handy if absolute carnage hits your team though. Even if it's 15 points, he could help field 17 players.

I also think there's a strong chance they manage Cordner's workload heading into the finals. He has been running himself ragged and his recent concussion ain't helping matters so Aubo could fill in the back-row a bit.

Pulling the trigger on CM13 means I need Moses to score <50 or Munster to score <40 to be affordable (that's with trading out Siro getting 40 + HTF getting 30, for a cashie + one of the halves)

If something falls over there, which I think is pretty likely, then I'm not going to be able to get in a cut priced keeper at HLF.

I'd love to see McInnes in my second row though. Good shout for captain this week too

Just posted over in the AC thread if anyone wants to drop a brainspark or two.

Still so torn about who to choose between Cook and CM13. What is is everyone else doing regarding this choice?

Anyone else with Luai not sold on dumping him?

If Randall and Starling can make quick cash between them I'll probably keep Luai and upgrade/downgrade the 2 hookers. If not, I'll be dumping Luai to get Bateman.

I'm going with CM13, mainly for 2RF DPP

There's definitely potential upside to Aubbs. That's why he is the black widow - he tempts you in with the promise of beauty before biting your head off and sucking out the juices inside.

But I would be surprised if he starts at 2RF 9 times in the next 9 weeks
Its up to you to guess how many times he will start and if that will get you enough points to justify holding him for when he's on the bench, and spending the trade to bring him in.

Agree with Chewie, I’d be going McIness.

We are all waiting to see what you do first, then doing that.
