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

Mulvy wrote:Trading Simonsson leaves Niu as my only centre and wfb cover. But hopefully that's enough.  It's going to be a long slow burn for him to make any money.  I only picked him because he was cheap and I wanted a wfb to loop with Niu if Laurie was a one round wonder.  Now that Laurie is safe for now,  makes sense for me to punt him for someone who will make cash.

That's why i'm probably getting Niu in with Schuster, covers wfb and CTR instead of Simonsson and Averillo, I still think Avo can kick on though

Interesting shout that, something I haven't really thought of

Could do Simonsson to Alvaro myself and boost cash and 17 scoring this week (but realistically just an EMG for EMG trade in future weeks)

Bleeds most of my cash though

For yourself, Simonsson to Schuster seems smart, just a question of whether your stalling middies recover or keep getting worse

Yeah the stalling middies get another week. They're not losing money and gives me a chance to look at sos.

I have $1.4M sitting in my 18-21 as well.

Should be able to loop one in.

I don’t loop. Anyway don’t you need non playing players to loop?

3 votes Liddle
1 vote Alvaro

Guess I’m going with Offa

Lol

I wonder what Bren is up to

Wouldn't surprise me if still on here with an alt.

You'd think almost certainly he gets more ball,  he won't have Mbye inside him either way.

Close team?
The team that plays together, stays together.

Is that a comedic angle I see making its presence felt ??  Brilliant!

Seeing a lot of trade talk involving Schuster and Lam.
Rightly so, the possibility that Schuster goes back to the bench, has been mentioned.
Don’t forget that Sam Walker is in the Roosters 21 and all the talk last week was that he may come in.
Just something to be wary of.

I "inserted" that phrase deliberately. Surprised it took so long. Baha, they keep on coming...

I’m thinking we have a similar sense of humour.
You sick bastard.

Me and @MightyFishes, the last of the non loopers!

Going back to the Lam talk, I'm leaning toward trading too.  Too much strike power in their team for him to be really fantasy relevant.  Another thing to note is Radley, he offers another attacking option for the team.

With Schuster too, I don't like to say it, but Foran has his history of injuries.

Together till the end

Otherwise looks like just the one trade with Schuster in this week

I still think Averillo is worth a chance on a dry track against Broncos, but I know not everyone shares this opinion.

Niu to Simonsson not terrible, but I'm not sure it is worth actually using a trade for.

Mighty Fishes wrote:Who should my last bench spot be?

Alvaro, Liddle or Offa

I'd go with Liddle.

Avo > SOS
Simmonson > Schuster

I hate it looking at it, Avo and simmonson seems to be not generating anything

I wouldn't do the first one. SOS can wait a week and as above, I think Avo is worth a look on a dry track against more on-par opposition.

Don't mind the second trade, but Schuster is arguably a much riskier option than Simmonson. But also, he could make more money this week than Simmonson makes all year.

From what I have seen of Schuster I think he can cement a gig seems a talented kid.

@teeth I'm confident Averillo picks up his scoring mate

Welshy wrote:@teeth I'm confident Averillo picks up his scoring mate

Yeah, I think if he was given a few more opportunities he could be a decent asset for the Dogs. Seems like the game plan is just give it to Flanno as he's the big signing. Avo I thought has looked decent.
