NRL Fantasy 2021 - Part 9 - ‘Twas the weekend before TLT

No fancy stats, just looked underdone to me in the trial, and not convinced he gets the starting role/minutes when Haas is back. Mulvy 2019 learning's notes say not to look a gift horse in the mouth - don't overlook a cheapie with previous fantasy pedigree. Put him in NPRs if you have to. (I was referring to Bird at the time)

Does Lodge qualify?

I just don’t see any better options personally at around that price that’s all! I have both Lodge and Hetherington currently.

He looked solid to me in the trial. TPJ will probs get himself suspended by the time Haas is back so Lodge could keep up some solid minutes.....

But oh well you’re an elite fantasy gun so you’re probs right and I’m wrong

Not keen on Lodge? He’s been in most of my drafts. I think he’s worth the punt and he’s cheap.

What are you going to do with Lodge if he is benched for Week 4? How much money do you think he has made by then?

Great work! I think this just highlights the going cheap in HOK is the way to go. The money saved on Cook, for instance, gets you a gun half or FB where there really is very little quality! Three cheap hookers in J Brailley, Liddle, and Watson look automatic choices. How many hookers are people going to have in their 21?

Remember how many trades were wasted on centre last year? $150k per centre trade adds up to lots. So if you said to me, Mulvy, I'm picking Cotric because he's got good job security and a lack of injury history and I couldn't be arsed wasting all that money and trades in the wasteland centre position and I've got a good gut feeling about the guy, I'd buy it 100%.  The whole if you take a and minus b and times it by c analysis is where you lose me and dare I say everyone else. Like all your other sub gun PODs, if they all pay off, you'll be killing it. Good luck with that.

Never finished top 100, but okay....

I hope they both aren’t in your top 17.

If I had to pick one of Welch, NAS and BS9 to benefit from the Storm news I agree it would be Welch. I think all three are risky though, all will benefit slightly, not sure if it's enough to pick them. Could easily be wrong. I picked BS9 in draft thinking this could potentially happen at some stage and also HG9 could be rested in rd 20 where yours truly is a dead cert to be finalist

I'm on the Tino train. His perceived role is more long term than the Storm guys. If my perceptions are wrong however, will need to cut him promptly.

That’s what happens when you have Teddy, Pap, Cleary, Angus, Fifita, Turpin and Welch....

Have to sacrifice elsewhere.

I'm on the Tino train. Also the Welch train and the Turpin train.

You could say I'm training the house down.



Edit: also on the Pinot Gris train which is my excuse for this abomination of a joke.
