I'm not sure how many people are in their league, nor how many people voting are h2h players or top overall/etc, but there is a lot near the top of the overall ranks that are in their league. I'm currently 14th overall but sitting 8th in theirs.

How many trades do you have left for the run home?

#NRL #NRLFantasy
0 - 23.5%
1 - 19.6%
2 - 21.6%
3+ - 35.3%

Was the timing of the poll before or after trading for this week? Before seems about right.

Who knows. Twitter polls have built in flaws anyway (you can't see results without voting, so a lot of polls just get donkey votes because people are curious)

No one talking about Brown. Under 700K and 4 game average of 60. Been a good pickup 2 weeks ago.

I have 6; Haas, Fifita, Carrigan, Cleary, Wiliame, Papenhuyzen

If we count fifita, I've got 6 after trading Lolo. Carrigan, fifita, Lucy, lomax, Pappy and Luai. Getting Haas back next week too.

Too expensive for me.

Probably still just gonna go Lolo > McInnes so I have an easy captains choice.
Means running 16 but I feel better having 3 trades for the last 4 rounds.

Tom Eisenhuth 345k is too expensive?

Had him since Rd 9. He's averaged over 55 for me but has had some low scores in that. Last month has been more consistent though

If I can field 17 without trades, then I shouldn't trade right? Have 3 trades left, and 67k ITB. Not in any H2H leagues if that affects things.

Team:

Expecting Fui and Haas back next week (though less sure that Fui will get his spot back). Doubt Randall plays again, and who knows with HTF. Would've liked to have got rid of Young but trading him at this stage is definitely a luxury now, right? Probably not enough cash on hand to do anything with Randall/HTF either?

I'd probably sit on that for the week. Nothing obvious stands out to me, I don't think you can really force a points upgrade with the 67k anywhere.

I would hold that team for a week.

Oh that Eisenhuth!! Sorry my apologies

Bit of a late update, 1004 for the round moves me up 2 ranks to 17(3 behind MTB charging through ) Lolo news means I probably use one of my last 2 trades to Matterson and just play with 16 with Mofo suspended. Hoping you lot avoided most of the red dots this week.

Thanks guys. Look forward to hopefully being able to ask the same question next week haha.

Captain Cam this week, just a matter of which one: Smith or McInness?

Yeah same for me. Pretty sure I'm going Smith

Thinking captain Teddy. Great weather in Sydney this week so SCG shouldn't be too bad. Broncos are battered, bruised and beaten so Teddy is due for a blinder.

Cleary against the tigers and Bateman against the Dogs are a close second and third

I think I'll captain Carrigan like I should have last week, with no Haas he'll have good minutes and workload

Wow, nice work! Call me a gambling man.....but being that close to the overall, I'd consider rolling the dice on the last trade if you have reasonable injury cover and DPPs so you can field a 17....

Captain Cleary for me.

I've done the whole captain Teddy against seemingly weak opposition this year and got burned.

So I'm Trading out Tolo and BSmith
What seems better?
A: McInnes + Su'A
B: Carrigan + Peachy
C: Carrigan + W.Graham

I'm expecting Teddy to go big this week, but I'm keeping Cleary as my captain. No need for me to take a risk at the moment.
