NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 20 - Who needs halves ???

Happy Birthday SI!!!

Can't wait to see Arrow and Radley come on at 20min and then spend the next 70 (gp) going tackle for tackle, try for try and pick up 200 each.



Then in that reality I might be back inside the top 10k or something wild.

Happy Birthday SI!

What are Tauk owners doing?

Oh man congrats old boy, is this the one where Lizzy gives you the zoom call or has that already come and gone?

Lam - Schuster

And either Tino to Papalii or Alvaro.  

Going double cow means I have to run both in the 17.  Not sure yet.  Going double cow gets me 327K.  Going Papalii leaves me with 114K.

I’m in a similar spot. Think Alvaro and Schusters 40s in your 17 are sufficient this early on.
Double cowing leaves me 300k which opens up things next week if Tino/NAS dont perform. A 3 round look is plenty

I couldn’t see anything but went off with a ‘knock’ last week.

Also a NAS owner and he will at some stage score well but there are more consistent options.

Really? He had a rib injury the week before as well so came off.
Have a link for where that info came from?

I think you have to hold, got a few tougher games and/or games whose teams' strength is forwards coming up

HOWEVER I am mighty tempted to do Turpin to Alvaro which would free up enough money for SST to Haas next week

Yeah, I'm leaning this way. Alvaro is scoring better than Tino anyway lol. Really want Papa but this might be smarter. I won't be so confident on the play if Cleary is out however.

TU: Matterson and Lam ----> Schuster and Alvaro $663k ITB
TD: Matterson and Turpin ----> Cleary and Schuster $7k ITB

One more about making money and hoping cleary finally has a slower game after that headknock and against the storm. The other is getting cleary now before it's way too late. COuld also keep Turpin and trade BS9 but leaves me very thin in the mids

Cleary, if he plays.

Hoping the Panthers do the right thing and give him a rest haha

I’m thinking Lam > Schuster and bank the 150k. If Lodge is back next week then he should score very similar to Alvaro I would think so I’d save a trade there. Didn’t realise that trade only nets like 15k haha

Wowser I like that idea son. 

I was expecting more in honesty, but with Collins really coming to the fore and playing large minutes, JWH still having a fairly large role, Radley back I’m not sure the extra GK will pay off?

You'd jump on Haas straight up and wouldn't want to wait a week to see if Kevvie cuts his minutes? Nothing he has done so far suggests to me he would, but at the same time broncos forwards always seem so gassed so the rotation would be the first thing I'd address and that would include not leaving Haas out there until he becomes a liability.

I thought the same mate, was getting frustrated with Alvaro making the money now, but Lodge coming back should make around the same cash long term anyway and hopefully from next week.

Depends on the rest of your team. Do you have enough cows to fund you down the line? Big part of the reason I'm not going for Cleary is I'll fk myself this week if I do in the long run

There seems to be a bit of undecidedness on Turpin vs Tino trade out.

Looking at job security, baseline and potential who would you be chopping this week? I have good cover for MID and for HKR so its not influencing my decision much.

Trade will be Tino OR Turpin --> Schuster

Think I'll give Tino one more chance to prove if he has a boom game in him and just go the double cow route as has been promoted above and then use the bank to upgrade him next week if he fails again

For me, Tino goes before Turpin.
