NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 71 - zero trades left

Planning on trading to Taumalolo.

If Granville drops out final team lists will just reverse trade - but if he's going to alternate between big and low minute games I think making the trade will work out overall.

I think they answered your question a few weeks back.

Only really started listening this season. Not a huge podcast person, so often forget and miss a week as well. But they are definitely pretty sound, and only 15-20 mins usually.

I didn't want to, BUUUUT Matterson to Lolo with zero bank left. Must be a sign right? Need to make a trade to field 17. Fixtures work well though that I can reverse if Randell actually plays. Otherwise I'm trading Randell to some other nuffy, don't know if I want to do that.

This is similar to what I've done - currently have a trade set but can reverse on the Sunday if Granville drops out of the 17. But I reckon the writing is on the wall. With Cotter, there was no history of big minutes and he'd played some middle. Granville has to be purely there for a 20-30 minute hooker spell. So I'm less inclined to wait and see.

All that extra load on his leg will probably earn him a rest next week.. in saying that can anyone else kick or will he play 80 because of it haha

I'm trying to weigh up whether my mental state can handle the fall before the rise. I quite like the feeling of one looped auto coming in, but four might be too much.

Drew Hutchison and Lachlan Lam have both kicked goals before

James Tedesco has kicked in trial games before, don't know if he's ever had a shot in actual NRL

Matterson + Randall > Bateman + Brimson + 146K

OR

Matterson + Randall > Fifita + Moses + 40K

OR

Lucy + Randall > Fifita/Bateman + Brimson +125K/26K

I am half tempted to take a punt on Morgo.

Surely he will do ALL the kicking so should see north of 400 meters a game. Team is in shambles so everything will run through him and Lolo. Killed it in the first two rounds this year.

Bateman or Fifita for me... Not as big of a Big Motza Ball!

How are u travelling ? Carving up with a late season rush ?

Only concern would be AEs messing up leaving you with one less score

As an example let's say you have Twal(FRF), Matterson(2RF) with Carrigan(FRF/2RF) and Sironen(2RF) on the bench. It would make sense for Carrigan to sub in and replace Twal, but what if he subs in to replace Matterson? This leaves you with no FRF coverage and missing Sironen's score

Team pre trades is:
Havili
Papali RCG
Jurbo Hetherington Sironen
Cleary Wighton
Averillo McIntyre
Best Mansour Latrell

Hetherington L.Croker
R.Stone

Injuries:
Grant
Matto
Papy
Flanno
E.Clark
Randall


With that team and a decent war chest I'm at this stage going Matto + Best > Lolo + Ponga 

Down to 3 trades but at least i hopefully will have Flanno, Grant and Papy back soon with an outside chance or Clark and Randall to start scoring again.

Hutchison in 14 can probably goal kick but that's it in the Roosters team this week. Who knows how their subs will work

I'd rather hold Flanagan for a week and turn Randall into Brimson.

Its still burning a trade and I'd rather get DCE than Brimson.

If I was to do it, would be 18-21 moving into 14-17. Don't trust the programmers to handle that scenario with 100% reliability

Just put your red dots in 14-17 and green dots in 18-21 - position then doesn't matter.
Make sure your red dots are guaranteed red dots, and not some like Randall who might sneak in.

On the situation you describe though, the tests Chewie and I did last year suggested it is smart enough to make sure you get 2 AEs if you have 2 available though.

Rubbish season but on the cusp of knocking the top 1k door down and hopefully a 500 rank finish. You and booze jostling for number 1 in sharks comp?

My whole starting 13 is green so hopefully don’t have to worry about any of that failhubbery.

Next week would you rather have Flanagan and Brimson or DCE and Randall? (or Flanagan + Randall + 1 extra trade)
