NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 29 - Everyone scores 1000 edition

Teeth Eater wrote:Massive congrats to you chaps and the mass of massive scores this week. Well played.

Managed to stumble my way to 1003 in my FOG team so I'm pretty happy with that. 974 in my work H2H team and a nice win this week, despite fielding 16 players. So all nice things.

Hard not to get a tad bummed seeing the big scores here, but tracking along okay without Cleary and Teddy in my team/s. Still not sure when and how those guys find themselves into my team/s, but I'll see how it plays out.

TKO, Isaako and Matterson are my (slight) concerns, but none of them are demanding to be traded out immediately (could change when I see Isaako's BE tomorrow). Really need some clarity on the Matterson situation too, because although his exclusion hasn't hurt me yet, I can't be holding a dude who gets pulled from games after being confidently listed until an hour before kick off. More than happy for them to make sure he's in good health before he returns, just hate the silly games if that's what it was today.  

Brooks is still worrying me too. Putting up nice scores, but looking pretty poor while he does it. Won't trade him out unless he tanks and drops cash, but he's a worry.

A bit off-subject, but anyone a little concerned about Brailey's scores from here on in with the Knights injury issues... especially Pearce, who he seemed to be gelling well with. Of course he's still going to score well, but rather than bouncing around with Crichton and Fifita, I was just going to start putting the C on Brailey from here on in, until I get Cleary. A little concerned, though, that the new make-up of the Knights team could affect his scores. Could be well out of line with those concerns, but they're there.

Gos is probs back starting this week because Boyle got both injured and suspended

I don't think the Green/Mann combo for the Knights will be substantially different to or weaker than the Pearce/Mann combo they've been running so far. (After this week... Mann might miss a round with his HIA).

Brailey getting most of his points from making shedload of tackles and missing hardly any, plus occasional scoots when Klemmer/Saifiti/Watson put them on front foot. Neither of those things have anything to do with Pearce.

Ponga back in next couple of weeks too. Not sure what Knights fans are worrying about medium term.

I had a pretty good week scoring 1105 for the round. Could’ve been better if I played Alvaro or Uto over Leniu. I was happy with my Avo to Momo and L. Croker to Walker trades.

I think I’ll look to hold trades this week and bank 2 as I have double traded the first 3 weeks. If Roberts is sanctioned by the NRL for breaking Covid bubble protocols I’ll just play Niu for the week. I don’t have any pressing issues. I’m sticking with Leniu as well.

My rank was 4386 before the round and pending any overnight updates I’m up to 1626 overall so stoked with that.

The OTL podcast guy Byron shout out to him for scoring 1159 which was 10th for the round, and he’s gone up from a 2200ish rank to 159 on overall! He’s such a gun player.

I have Fog and Hoy, both of whom need to be sold, otherwise I'd probably hold as well. That said, Hoy was going to be sold anyway since Ponga's due back.

Giving up a guy who is not really in their plans to get their next FB to shadow RTS for five months seems like a good move to me.

I don't think Fog needs to be sold. I think he's still a keeper who plays round 13, would be nice to partner a Moses during that time. 

Fair call on Hoy though.

Just curious as to why you didn't start with Papi? What was your logic behind that decision. Did you load up on another position or something?

Im in a similar position with Tups.
Hold or sell, doesn’t play first bye so an upgrade is tempting

Depends on injury severity, what is it? Quad? Could be a few weeks
