NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 16 - To Milf or Not to Milf, that is the question?

I’ve considered it but I just can’t see the upside. His scores at the dogs were terrible, and he’s started with a goose egg this season. I mean his BE is only 30 which he could get but then again another single figure is possible too.

I said it earlier but getting to a Alvaro or Leniu for around 40k seems an easy way to fix up a slight mistake

If you think that's amazing, what about the 20% of players who chose to have the most expensive player in the game (Cleary) who still elected to captain someone else?!

Can anyone convince me to not do Host to Davey? Seems fairly safe trading a red dot to someone who could potentially average 50+ if he succeeds in a 2nd row spot. Surely Des will realise how much better of a player he is than Gosi?

Reimis will be up against Opacic and Sivo who are pretty sound defensively.... Although I would hold. I can see him having a double and a big score sooner rather than later.

Seems no one trusts Wayne in picking up.Koala.  I think I have to hold strong and go through with it.

Nah avoided Waddell thankfully.

Kevy interviewed yesterday doesn't clear much up on Lodge, and I guess they don't know at this stage anyway.. quote:

"Lodgey will be out for 2 to 3 weeks, chance of getting him back next week".

Probably has to go.. maybe.

Arrow and Murray will play big mins as we know so Murray is likely to play some edge.

Su’a won’t be playing 35mins like last week.

Koloa won’t be getting 80mins, more likely to be around 55mins tbh with you.

Knight is back possibly this week too which only strengthens our middle meaning Murray likely to shift to edge.

Benji will be on at different times each week as well and is likely to come on for Su’a or Koloa.

Too much depth I think and competition for mins.

My head says no to Koloa.

My view on Lodge is that for any other minor injury I could see it being a week and worth a hold, but hamstrings seem trickier. There's a ridiculously high re-injury rate when players come back after 1-2 weeks (something like 25%?).

I think he has to go. It's just a shame that no cheap options emerged for R2, so we're all discussing gross middles coming off the bench.

70-80% of the teams are either dead teams, soon to be dead teams, or very casual players that are looking at last weeks players rather than what might happen this week. I really think looking at overall trade stats is fairly useless in this case. It's not that no-one trusts Wayne, it's that no-one knows who Koala is because he didn't start last week.

The ownership, who's hot, and who's not would be far more interesting if it was the "top tier" - whether that's the top 1k, 5k or 10k in the ranks. Especially a few weeks into the season once ranks are more meaningful.
