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

Rabbits21 wrote:Oh and re Siro, when Knight is back next week Siro probs goes back to 40-45mins off the bench.

So you're saying play Siro for his 80 points this week, and get rid of him next week?

Times up!

I rolled an ankle last year and had to be carried from the field by coaching staff.

Couple of days time I was training like nothing had happened, funny old injury felt like the end of the season at the time

I rolled each ankle about 30 times and now have to use 50 bucks worth of tape if I go for a fast walk.....he’ll be right!!

Same, absolute nightmare. Those uneven pavements and curbs are cunts!

Another member of the dodgy ankle brigade. Used to have to shave and strap both every game. Finally broke the right one nearly 10 years ago.

It's not all bad though, I was a lurker for a year or so on the Forums and when I was stuck at home with it finally decided to actually sign up and start posting!

Reckon Bhunt goes back to half soon ?

It ended up being 35mins and still staring doing things in my head and combos and will that work and what about that over that etc.... such a hard choice.

I’m leaning towards selling Haas again. Probs best to just go for it and do McInnes and JFH in for Haas and Aubbs leaving 4 trades and 26k spare. Have Siro as 18th and Hammer as 19th man as well.

It’s just the prospect of most likely not being able to get Haas back in that is worrying and scaring me.

Nah lol Siro likely to play 57mins this week I reckon and Johns to get the last 23mins.

Siro I’ll guess scores 30.

I can live with him scoring 25-30 points as my 18th man for now. Even if he has to come into my 17 better getting 20 odd points than zero.

I think the reason I’ve been so torn over Haas is yes I wanna make a run for overall to finish as high as possible but also as I want to go as well as possible in all the head to head finals leagues I am gonna be in which is many and I know most of my finals opponents will have Haas and I’m concerned that’ll come back to bite me in the arse come finals.

Can’t have it both ways I guess. When I think about it overall rank is more important to me. In my first year of playing for overall combined with head to head I ranked in at around 3000 learning so much in 2018, then last season fully committed to overall and learnt so much more finding this place in July last year and managed to finish 599th. Now I got up to 335 rank last week then have gone back out to 450 end of last round. I’d love to somehow be able to push for a top 300 finish.

I started playing fantasy in 2017 in that year I purely focused on head to head.

Thoughts on my team with 4 trades and 26k spare left!?...

McInnes
Carrigan MoFo
Murray Taumalolo Yeo
Cleary Pearce (gulp)
Crichton Latrell
Teddy Ponga Pap

Hunt Lucy JFH Taupau
Sironen Hammer Randall Niu

Nup in an interview like 2 days ago he said Dean Young has been rlly upfront with him about playing hooker for the forseeable future and Hunt spoke about how that stabability of knowing he will only play 1 position will benefit his game. Sounds like he will see the rest of the szn out at 9 injury and form depending obviously

New coach says the Hunt is Hooker this season

He’s only got 12.5 percent ownership. I’m not sure how many in the top 500 own him though.

I’m thinking many more who’d like to bring him in probs don’t have the trades or have other fires to put out.

So hopefully not to many in the top 500 own Hunt.

At the start of the week his ownership in the top 1000 was in the 800s. That was MTBs ownership link. He was the like the 6th most owned player.

Just checked and in the FOG league 39 of 50 of us have Hunt.

Wow well seems most who are lower ranked probs don’t have him.

Fairly sure the vast majority of the top 100 have him - would assume the top 500 would be similar

There will be a book on you one day, 'A day in the life of the precariously pondering punter', i can see it now... the epilogue would be epic, stuff of the ages.

When I was still young and relatively fit enough to play cricket, I was coming in to bowl one day when I went over on my ankle. As I went to ground I also cramped up in both calves.
Both teams reckon it was the funniest thing they’ve ever seen.
I couldn’t see the funny side of it at the time.
