NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 71 - zero trades left

Anybody know what’s going on with McIntyre and Garner? Is it injury or just performance which has ousted him from his spot. He would be a good fit for my team bu job security seems weak

As a new CS9 owner, @PongaYeotheMann your physio knowledge is priceless. Cheers from a fellow Knights tragic.

No they really should, trade him out.

If you're going to have a good finish to the year, some of it you may have to Bradbury by watching everyone else around you bottle it and blow trades.

E.g I'm ranked 221 but I'm the idiot with no WFB cover and I'm not using a trade on some 15-30 point player for one week. All the ground I gained in one week could be lost because of that.

I would be happy with 1000 points this week please

What’s the general  feeling on Matterson?
Read something (can’t remember where) that he misses ‘at least’ this week so makes me feel like I need to pull the trigger given his history...pity, he was going really well this year (in real life as well as fantasy).
Would usually hold but It cost me last week and I only want to trade in top tier guns from here so using a trade to swap Randall to Starling/other To make 17 seems like a luxury.
I am thinking Cook or McInnes In for Matto and then upgrade Young to Fifi or Bateman in a couple of weeks.

I’m also really wondering about Matto. Considering Matto to DFifi so that I can also afford Luai to Cook. Other option is Randall to <$271k to fund Luai to Cook... otherwise bank trades. 8 trades to go before this week. Thoughts?

As a minimum yes

Yes... Matto to DFifi and Luai to Cook sounds solid to me with 8 trades left

I would really appreciate some advice on my team if people have time

I have a choice and my gut is saying to pick Fidow over Talau this week.

So you're saying it's Hammer time?

Every time I think about my fantasy team I can’t help but feel a piece inside of me die each time

That may mean Kolomatangi starts in his place. Hopefully he doesnt go too well and displace Siro when Su'A is back haha

Of course Su’a was suspended, 2 QLD’rs on the panel and former St Merge player Ben Creagh. I didn’t see much in it, it wasn’t high penalty at best. Adam Reynolds kept getting hit late against Raiders the week before and nothing was done. Anyhow whinge over.......

Mate Sironen if he stays fit the rest of the year the starting second row spot is his, but if an injury or HIA hits in a game like it did with AJ HIA in Canberra and Reynolds going off last week then Siro is the utility man who can move to the halves or centre. Hopefully Siro can actually play big mins in the second row this week and it wouldn’t shock me to see him play the 80mins.

Talk on Souths forums is of Murray to second row and Knight to lock.

It’s meant to be very wet down here on Friday so it could be a slugfest which I would rather it not be as I think we have the better backline.

I am going to the game have taken the day off work, looking forward to being back at ANZ, with poor weather around on top of COVID will only get 4000 at absolute best. I’ll make sure my voice is booming

With Fifita and Lodge also likely back I am worried about this one and also Brisbane have beaten us in 8 of our last 11 clashes.

If Souths wanna make the bottom of the 8 this is absolutely a must win game.

Adam Reynolds lightly trained today but is still in some doubt with nerve issues in his neck and shoulder I believe thanks to Tariq Sims last week.

What you racing on 3 wheels as well?

So I am thinking Randall + Best to D. Fifi + Cashout.

I have 7 trades left and could opt Moses or Tevaga as options to get more cash. With potential surgery on the cards for Best he wont be back soon surely.

So I have 7 trades left, 236k spare and am looking at Lucy to Taumalolo and Randall to Starling leaving me with 5 trades and 47k spare, thoughts?

Have this for this week

Hunt
Haas MoFo
Murray Taumalolo Yeo
Cleary Pearce
Aubusson S. Crichton
Ponga Latrell Teddy

Carrigan Taupau B. Sironen Starling
Hammer Grant Pap Niu

If you could have any keeper FRF for the rest of the season (excl Haas and Carrigan) who would it be?

That is really interesting, probably Papalii he has been grrat this year but truthfully could easily score a 40 like most FRFs outside of Haas/Carrigan there isnt any key FRFs I feel and Fotu/Taupau who are cheaper are good gets.

I hope they don't give out more free trades. I finally have chance to make some decent rank climb just shy of 1k atm

Anyone think lodge can average mid 50’s like the back end of last season or am I clutching at straws for a under priced FRF. Don’t really follow the broncos squad and not sure if he’ll get 60 mins ?

I disagree, I would think Randall will push Crossland off the bench next week. Keep in mind Randall failed his HIA last week and has to go through concussion protocols anyway.

Out of 10, how confident are you on your opinion lol cause I would like to keep Randall as an 18th man
