NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 80, Oh Aubbs, we hardly knew ye

I think it's no more risky to get Matto now than it was at any point of his recent career.

The concussions weren't seen as risky for Matto this year after he played all of last season fine. A bunch of people didn't start last season with him for that reason, but quickly got on and it paid off. Obviously now it's become an issue again.

Bump from last thread:

Can field this team with Lolo -> CS9/Cook

CS9/Cook
Carrigan Taupau
CM9 Jurbo Tevaga
DCE Moses
Lomax Mitchell
Teddy Ponga Pap

Hunt Fogarty Talau Siro

MoFo HTF Randall Fui

2 trades 138k

Very tempted to do Lolo to Matterson & Randall to Brimson/Capewell instead.

I'm better off just holding that 2nd trade if I can field 17 though, right?

Where are people expecting Capewell to come in?  I don't see him walking straight back into an 80 minute edge role.

I don’t think hunt and young get along. First thing hunt said in an interview was he thinks dragons need an experienced coach lol why even say that. Now this

Hunt seems like a bitch to deal with aye. Can't get over wanting to play 7.

CHN dropped ?

I guess using the last trade on Tolo to Twal is play, hoping for an Oates revival from jersey 21 otherwise I'm playing with 16.

Can't play against Dogs (assuming only this season, was clause in contract)

From Raiders website: Timoko comes into the team for Corey Harawira-Naera who will miss the game against his former club as per his signing agreement.

Ah of course, wasn't even thinking of that.

Taumalolo > McInnes leaves me 3 trades.

Will play with 16 this week and get Haas and Mofo back next week bumping Siro out of the 17 and see where that leaves me.

Exactly right. He’s a moron because people are actually praising him and he’s impressing which is the opposite to what he usually receives, you’d think he’d be enjoying his footy for once lol

Whenever you can conserve a trade, do so.

Before trades...

TU: You have five or more red dots
TD: You have four or fewer red dots

Barring injuries, not expecting Averillo back this year. He has some speed sure, soon as he replaced Lafai the warriors ran in a couple of tries on that edge.

Tbh media ask him a question and he answers. Dont really see the problem.

Yeah I've gotten rid of him, I think HTF Is more likely to return than he is.

Randall offers pretty much nothing though and looks to be a long-term red dot given he can't make it into the team with multiple injuries. I'd be tempted to make trade

This week or rest of season?

This week he may slip onto the bench and come on at edge with yeo moving to middle.

Longer term i reckon he'll be starting edge by finals.

I reckon Martin has done enough to keep his spot, was one of Panthers' best last week and hasn't really been noticeable for mistakes during Capewell's absence

7 red dots this week despite holding sione, grant and koroisau of late. Horrible season for injuries for me as for most. Has taken a fair bit of the fun out of it tbh but plenty worse off than me I’m sure

Trading lolo and playing with 15 this week leaving me with 1 trade and hoping haas mofo Koro and maybe even sione can make an appearance soon

As a knights fan and a Pearce, ponga owner I’m sad Lino is starting. Not good enough. Play Mann or pheonix there and give Randall the bench hooker spot. O’Brien has done a lot right this year but his handling of Randall will mean people in our reserves are likely to want to move on as they don’t get given chances even 4-5 injuries deep
