NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 77 - Two Thirds Left of a Team List Tuesday

I mean, it's not ideal for team balance but a week like this not having a player like Ponga will be disastrous if he goes large.  Especially against his old club he could do just that.  5 trades so I SHOULD be able to get Haas back.  Maybe through Nofo in 2 weeks as Tigers have a tough run.  Hopefully with his monster score he can increase his price a little by then.

If the Cowboys go against the blue print that beat us last time they're idiots. Kick to the corners and take the ball out of play so Ponga can't run it back. They did it amazingly well first game.

I know. That's what has me concerned about swapping Haas for him.

Arrow injury update from Titans utterly useless by basically saying they haven't decided whether he gets surgery or not https://www.titans.com.au/news/2020/08/19/An-update-from-Titans-Head-of-Performance/

NRL Physio suggests 2-6 weeks however high grade AC joint injury can recover quicker than moderate grade AC joint injury (CS9) - worth risk to hold him

Surely sell is still best option even with limited trades. Feel like I'm more likely to sell out of spite based off how shit the injury update is (also the fact my EMG replacement is garbage if I hold in Talau)

So to clarify with Haas you play

RD 15 - Herb or Cotric
RD 16 - Sironen

Without Haas you play Bateman

RD 15 - Bateman
RD 16 - Bateman

So could you Sironen + Lucy to Bateman in Round 17 and save the trades for the two weeks.

How much does Bateman outscore Cotric/Herb the 1st week and Sironen the 2nd week?

That is the real difference and is it worth 2 trades when you could save then for piece of mind for 2 weeks and then with 3 rounds to go make big moves.

Also Butcher starting is good.

Probably by about 35-40 in R15 and probably 30-35 in R16... Also NEED to get Teddy in so Butcher to Teddy has to happen this week

So realistically at most its 75 point difference and two trades now instead of 2 trades in Round 17 to have the same team roughly. (Assuming Siro + Lucy is enough to get Bateman + Nuffie)

Curtis is one of the Sea Eagles' most consistent players and a big part of their push for a top eight spot, and admits he is very excited to try and get one over on his little brother on Saturday night.

“I’m very excited for that actually – it’s a bit of motivation for me. I got to play him last year in a game where he came off the bench and they beat us by a point," he said.

"I’ve been speaking to him since he had a little rolled ankle, but he is confident that he will be alright. Hopefully he gets some minutes and is on the same side of the field as me.

"I’m looking forward to getting right into him. He’s an opposition player so he can get stuffed this week.

"I think he will try and put a shot on me – he backs himself as a bit of a hitman. We’ll see how he goes, but I’m looking forward to it."

TD: Fifita
TU: Moses

Edit: Just realised I put the TD and TU the wrong way around. So everyone voting make sure you choose the right one

Lol love this

Nothing like some sibling rivalry

Ofa in = Rev's out.

Surely not.

SiroB gonna be fired up. I’m mean he wont get a banner... probably just 70 to 80 I think.

Surprised there's been nothing else on it at all. Rabbit is right though, there's been no South's injury report since round 10.

Biro & Ciro???

Edwards at 0.7 ownership,I’m taking the punt. I’ve got nothing to lose anyway and I don’t want to have to keep playing that plank HTF. Actually one more week of either HTF/Clune til CS9 is back next week.

Haas to Mofo
Randall to Edwards

1 trade 34k bank

Cook
Mofo Taupau
Yeo Lolo Matto
Hunt Cleary
Talau Lomax
Edwards Teddy Ponga

SJ
Carrigan
Siro
Clune

HTF
Averillo
CS9
Niu

Thoughts?

His name should be Biro

Captain Bateman this week.
I am keeping faith in Sironen… I think he is getting severely underdone by everyone. I reckon he is good for 40 points a game at least if he sticks to an 80 minute edge roll all year.
Holding Randall also in case there is an injury around the Knights spine.
Liking the look of my final team more and more.

Jack Johns on the bench = no 80 mins for Sironen.

Yep so after comparing each team week by week it’s pretty much
R15 Bateman (60) + Lucy (55) vs Matterson (57) + Herbie (30)*
R16 Bateman (60) + Lucy (55) vs Matterson (57) + Cotric (35)*
R17 onwards Bateman x 4 vs Matterson x 4
470 and 1 trade For the last 3 weeks vs 407 And 2 trades for the last 3 weeks

*could be 45+ could -20

Ofa = WT almost out.

Think I'm going to roll the dice...
