NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 84 - Spendng our last trade on a CTR

810 with the Goat, Super-Mann, Teddy and Jazzy-J left...may just scrape 1k.
Not bad considering I was forced to play Averillo, Talau and Herbie.
Gotta love it when a bench forward you've been trying to ditch for weeks and can't suddenly pulls 60 mins and 88 points. Let's put the C on Hudson next week

Hang on a minute...did Darius just outscore DFifi??

Should just scrape 1000

That’s well over par great stuff.

Ponga was going to be my target trade in next week but now I'm not sure. Knights just capitulating.

Teddy might get an early shower at this rate.

what he's still on after 20 mins?

Keeping Hunt vs Pearce looking about as good as my knights defence

Won’t happen. Too much backline stuffing around.

Okay, this is back on the table lol.

OMG! Sonny passed the ball, wow! We're not worthy!

A bit disappointed with Teddy's first half as my captain. Only 1 TB, no offloads and all his runs have been straight into the defensive line in his own half. He has a try, assist and LBA and is on 24...

Hoping he can go big in the second but I'm not expecting him to, he always seems to score poorly as my captain.

TA awarded...


Why did they put Randall in the 17? Will he even play?

Give him the Dally M

Early game updates:

Lomax 9
Clune 28
Hunt down to 44
McInnes up to 83
Fui 15

Croker 43
Wighton 82
Papalii 24
Starling up to 45
Bateman up to 77
Hudson 86

Little disappointed with Talau, Randall, Averillo and Fuimaono getting game time to bail out some teams that were in trouble this week

I'm up to 908 with Teddy in play, RTS and Asi to come so hopefully end up with 1000

Man have I made a mess of chasing Siro's measley 51.

So I decided to dump Taupau down into my NPR (Sorry MS, should have listened to you) and then he goes and scores 66. So instead of writing it off I look again and think, well, I can still put Pearce down at 20th man and get Siro and Taupau's score. Now Pearce is already sitting on 42 at half time? Unbelievable. So, in chasing this shitty 51 it looks like I'm going to miss the score of my highest bench player, lol. What a dickhead.

And the further irony? The two guys I didn't move from my bench, still sitting in my starting 17? Hunt and Starling, who have both scored under 51. Couldn't have possibly fucked the whole thing up more if I tried. Thankfully it's a rest week in my $$ H2H, but this is all going to dent my Overall rank.

Good lesson to not play fuckery and let nature take it's course.

Some nice updates for me with +14 overall with Bateman (+5), Starling (+6), McInnes [+8] and Hunt (-5)

Haha. Feel your pain with backfiring loopfuckery mate!

Don't see Pearce doing a lot in this second half though.

Looks like taking the risk of captaining Teddy might not have been a great idea It's part of the territory but still sucks
