NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 71 - zero trades left

Given my situation with Best, Grant, and Matto, Randall is the least of my concerns. 

Hoping to hear some good news about Harry, hoping best is only 2-3 weeks away (hold) and hoping Matto returns next week (some chat from the Eels confirming would be nice). Otherwise I'm looking at a Matto/Best trade to Fifi/Ponga which would leave me with 3 trades. 

I'm for sure gunna run out haha. It's been a great learning curve this season!

How many traded left and what is your rank?

Sounds awesome when said with an Arnie voice over.

Ponga Yeo the Mann wrote:Smith owners really shouldn’t panic. AC injuries that aren’t full ruptures that require surgery heal quickly. He will be fine. 3 weeks as a max but watching him move on the sideline I’d say missing 1 game and being back for the roosters game makes a lot of sense

So tempted to punt him and bring in anyone else.

Can we lock ur prediction in Pongayeoman ?

Arghh Averillo or Hammer for last spot?!?! Tough to split them. Guess the fact Hammer plays the Titans and most will be playing him point towards picking him?

I'd be keeping Smith if I had him, but that is probably my low trades speaking. Just think you will kick yourself if you trade and he laces the boots up against the Roosters next week

Do we have any more info as to how long Harry Grant is out?

Feel this is a make or break round for alot of teams who have maxed traded. Either make trades to cover out and risk not being able to trade out long term injuries or take a drop in rankings.

I got 3 trades left and will just run young and heatherington this week. Since I have grant pappy Randell and flanno missing

Can’t be certain without testing him or seeing an MRI report but I’d give you 90% he plays against the roosters and 10% the week after

Given low trades and 5 new red dots a week the smart play is to hold IMO but trust your gut

That Murray 2RF rumour is a bit annoying as looking to buy this week, would only be the 1 week with the suspension, but he's the first to move to 2RF for some reason with injury even though he's one of the best locks in the game

Weirdly I'm contemplating Tevita "6 week suspension" Pangai. He's got a really fantasy friendly game with TBs and offloads, but would be a rollercoaster to own. Or look at Frizell again but he locks out before final teams for Souths

Mildly interested in Hynes for coverage, uncertain he remains in the 17.

Outside chance he steals a centre spot for the run home but most likely you would be buying a red dot

Murray as good a chance as any high end pure 2RF to crash over on top of probable 80 and insane workrate. Great trade in regardless considering he hasn’t gotten anywhere near his higher scoring potential this year

Purely based on gut but I reckon he gets 3/4 Full games before end of season due to resting guys like Munster/Papy and covering for injury

Bellamy also seems really pissed off with his centre rotation not being able to defend. Hynes would be good structurally from his time at fullback, he would atleast talk to his inside and outside man

Cheers mate, it is a battle that's no doubt. What to do..

Who should I get in for Joliffe? I need a WFB for Papenhuyzen so my options are probably either AJ who will score better or Herbie who will give me Centre cover

Last three weeks Ted got 50 against the Titans, Aekins got 24 and Pap got 32. They're not gimmes, especially for The Hammock.

*admittedly the week before that RTS scored 82.

Olam makes great contact but positionally he is poor, Seve worse. Brenko is a decent player but can’t stay injury free. Not sure Bellyache was impressed with Momo defensively either hence the wing shift when he was fit.

Hynes feels like one of those players I bring in won’t play past this weekend, if I leave him will go bananas this week then cop a spot in team and run with it haha

Question with Hynes is do you trade him in this week and play him over HTF and hope he scores a hatty against the Bulldogs. Of course the cover is nice.

7 trades and strongly considering
