NRL Fantasy Part 74 - The Mods are Asleep Edition

Just a PSA that I'm considering trading in Moses this week.

Get him in at your own peril

Take it as you will. I've done Angus>McInnes

Thanks for the heads up mate looking like I'll be turning him into dfifi or tevaga then

Gosh pickle, $5K short of doing Grant/Averillo to Moses/Brimson.

Guess it's a sign that I'll just use the one trade on Grant to Moses.

Funny seeing the Paseka chat this week. Not someone I'd really outwardly noticed in the past, but found myself watching him last week and digging what he was doing.

Pretty ballsy, but an interesting shout.

You don't have someone else that you can trade to Niko?

7k short of HTF to Niko. Will probably just hold the trade.

Just looking at my options, and planning for the (I think likely) event that both Flanno and Lomax are out, meaning I have to make 2 trades to have 17.

Thoughts on Flanno + Niu -> Bunt + Hampton? Bunt would give me cover in both halves and hooker which I really need, but I can only afford that trade if I downgrade Niu to Hampton, hence why this is my plan if I'm down to 15 men.

Only got 4 trades before using any this week, and am praying for a miracle (both Flanno and Lomax play, in which case I have 17 and can hold my precious trades)

MY TEAM:

I have a few options but the main ones are:

a) no trades
b) trade Young to anyone under 800k
c) trade sironen/starling

Im not really qualified to give advice, but Id be holding those trades

I need a forward.  It's him or Aubbs or even Joffe but I don't rate him.  It's more to secure Ponga, I can't watch it anymore as a non owner. Hoping Paseka can pump out some 45's for a month. He should see at least that in minutes. Their forward depth is horrible. Marty is probably a better should though but means missing Ponga.

9 Trades & 129k on deck

Mann
Haas (c) MoFo
Carrigan Lolo Leilua
Luai Munster
Talau Manu
Ponga Pape Teddy

Crichton
Rudolf
Sironen
Arrow

Hammer
Starling
Simonsson
Hetherington


I can use on trade and just get SJ for Munster
or
Munster & Hetherington (for DCE & Hampton)
Munster & Manu (for Cleary & TBA)

(In theory can run Mann in HLF and Starling at HOK but don't think that'll play out well)

WAGs team is done! She is pretty stoked. 0 trades left.

Tevaga
Carrigan Tauapu
Bateman Lolo Matterson
Moses Hynes
Staggs Lomax
Teddy Pappy Ponga

Starling Murray Sironen Herbie
Sailor Tracey Munster CS9

Full strength

Any concerns Ivan may rest a half with Burton in the reserves ?

Can fill a 17 with Talau being 17th man.
Flanagan in extended squad. Didn't expect him back in the 17 this week. Temptation is there to punt one of Flanagan/Randall. With 4 trades left, probably best to hold trades.

It feels good to have more or less final team with 4 trades in bank. No more cow chasing

2nd year pretty much all but done at this rate 1 trade left and have to decide if i trade grant or flanno to cm9 i ran out of trades 2 seasons in a row lol very slow learner so it seems

He’s been around the team all year, stop starting rumours

Oof so frustrating

I find it funny that Euan Aitken is averaging 49.8 at CTR and hasn't scored below 47 in the last 6 weeks but he never rates a mention on Lone Scout articles.

LS probably trying to keep his pod a pod

That said he's too expensive for anyone to realistically buy him.

If Lomax is out I may run with 16... I don't really want to get Aubbs or Talau just for cover.
I rather bring in Nikorima and hope he scores another 60
