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

I am actually really excited for footy this weekend. Hoping to see Roosters back to full strength and get a glimpse of what SBW has to offer. Lots of close games that can go either way. Just very excited for the week ahead. Hoping Koro comes into the side. With Randall in the reserves I can loop Herbie with 1 of Cotric, Sironen or Hamiso… Who would you loop with? I am thinking Sironen as a 2rf should score better than Cotric against Roosters. Really praying for a huge game from Lucy (I think Tigers should beat Manly) and a quiet one from Haas so I can make that trade next week.
Captain pick is up in the air for me this week..
Cleary – Surely favourite for Daly M. In form of his career and against a Broncos side that leaked a lot of fantasy points last week.
Smith – dusted off the cob webs last week and against the Rabbits who like to play through the middle so lots of work in the middle on offer.
Teddy – Backing up from his 112 and Roosters are almost back to full strength (will be if Angus and Aubbs make it into the side). If SBW gets significant minutes he could be the beneficiary of his offloads.
Moses – Against the Warriors who have been playing well but this smells to me like the game to kick the Eels back into gear. BA also stating Moses has been told to run the ball more.

Bottom 8 = easy game. I dont make the rules

I will definitely be tipping Warriors.

Big call of 2020, but I'd pencilled in a loss to the Broncos for the Eels too, and that was before last weekend. I know it sounds stupid, but I can feel it coming.

I didn't on my laptop but got off the train and looking on my phone and it's certainly there. Massive.

I finished 1st in L6 but I am not confident heading into the finals after I gave up 3 of my last 4 games. I am up against Spuddies (4th) in the qualifying finals this week. Here are the main differences between the two teams.

Spuddies – McInnes, Rudolf, Murray, Yeo (out), Tevaga, Hunt, Mitchell (out), Butcher, Luai EMG - Starling, Macintyre, Haas

StormTroopers – CS9, Twal, Bateman, Fifita, DCE, Lomax, Lucy, Moses EMG - Herbie, Cotric, Sironen, Randall

Think I edge him here

At a guess I reckon giant Teddy might have something to do with it

You should re-check the rules. The form guide is:

Warriors - Won 4 of their last 5, their only loss being to Panthers, in the closest anyone has come during their win streak. Beat Knights 36-6 last week. The win streak coincides with a new coach. Not the same side that was losing all the time under Kearney.

Eels - Lost 2 of their last 3 games, their only win coming against a Storm side without Munster and Smith, their best 2 players. The 2 games before that they just sneaked past the Sharks and lowly Bulldogs, both by 2 points. Just lost 38-0 to Souths. Have just lost Brown who is a key player for them.

Have to play either Clune or Fermor this week. Both scored pretty similarly last week, both up against bottom 3 teams. Who do I choose?

TU: Clune
TD: Fermor

I told him that last week lol.

Best CTR under $404k + Lomax or Shibasaki + Capewell

I apologise for breaking the forum. Oops

Going to loop Starling with one of Taupau, Pearce or Lucy. Who goes in the loop?

The dumb shit people post here / sarcasm, all looks the same to me. You need to be clearer.

Someone like Mbye could be good if he stays FB at 427k - 39 average in 2019 (40.9 average career excluding his famous -1)

I've already mentioned Kelly. You just want CTR who will start all 4 games from here on in

Capewell no go for me, Martin has been too good to lose spot

Maybe Peachey + Mbye

TU: use my final trade on centre 441k or cheaper

TD: hold trades

The matchup:

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

Probably Hoppa I'd say.
