NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 82 - TPJ's punishment not getting sacked

What a difference a week makes.

Went from having 16 last week to having 20 to choose from this week. Toughest choice will be choosing two of Biro, Mofo and Wallace

Was Randall that bad last week? I only saw his score - I didn't see his performance

Depends if you have another CTR to play even if Averillo/McIntyre

CTR starting 4 games should score roughly 100-120 points (25-30 a game) that you wouldn't get if you were playing 16, but can you get 120+ points somewhere else using trade in coming rounds

I'm totally going to finish the year with 1 playing CTR despite having 4 of them aren't I

Is it weird that I'm glad Talau wasn't named? I'd like to see how Capewell goes this week and if he might get a starting spot next week if he goes well, or even score enough points off the bench to be a good centre option. But if I'm going to consider him, it'll be at the expense of Talau (pending further injuries) so I'm happy he can't lose more money. I just need McIntyre to stay on that bench, though, otherwise I'll probably be playing Averillo's 6 from the bench.

Also no Garrick which means for us DCE owners, potential goal kicking points!

Capewell starting again is well and truly fantasy coach optimism. Liam Martin has earned that starting spot.

Didn't do anything wrong in defence. Looked solid in attack, no spark if you're looking for something to critic, not enough to be dropped for imo

Esan Marsters returning is interesting. He's been a stagnant option on my list of interest for half the year. Could be a very sneaky option if he could find any form whatsoever for the last few matches.

Seems unlikely, though.

Is Taupau A sell?

Just noticed no SJ either

Yeah, I agree. I think he'd be well back in that pecking order now.

20 Green dots and Randall. Feels weird. :/

Yeah, not even in reserves. Doesn't affect Fantasy for me, but it's become an issue in VSDT and SC.

Fui benched, Talau dropped, Mitchell injured. How did I go from 4 fit centres to 1?

I guess my options are:

a) Play Fui and hope he's a late in/that he scores similar from the bench to whoever I'd trade in anyway - this way I can go through with Latrell -> Brimson

b) Trade Latrell to any centre, Siro 17th man

Guess it basically comes down to Fui + Brimson vs Peachy/Graham/SChriton + Siro.

Probably B right?

Solid centre option but he's the new Hodges/Dugan. Seems very prone to short injuries.

From the Sharks site: Kiwi international Shaun Johnson sidelined for at least another week with a hamstring issue.

"At least another week" has me very worried

Best CTR for $465k?

Needs enough job security to play 4 rounds, and scores above 30 apprecicated

I'd think certainly not. To whom?

He's had down weeks all year and whilst I've also been primarily disappointed with his output, I'll stick with him.

No Centres and No Trades left

Had a crack, well done to those left

My Centre fuckstains
and to really throw it deep inside, I traded out Lomax instead of Williame early in the year, cause I thought I was better then everyone else
T. Talau
F. Niu
B. Wiliame
