NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 33 - Was that the best round in the world? No it was just a tribute!

Mate I kinda hate getting rid of Munster for a CTR. You pocket some change but you're going to score less in your 17, unless the other trade this week is an upgrade.

But I am also the guy who just got so bored he suggested Wade Graham as a viable playable cow, so I'm a bit of a laughing stock.

Yeah it’s probably stupid but I have a surplus of halves and it would work for team balance. Not sure on the other trade yet if at all

Will re assess lost TLT

I assume McGuire starts lock, probably not this week but soon enough

Fui will likely lose starting and then someone (Kaide Ellis?) drops out of the 17.

Alvaro i think probably is OK short term.

With Fui and Riki becoming liabilities my forward pack is looking very dicey. Schuster getting DPP next week is actually  going to be a massive boost, but need to get some decent EDG and MIDs in

And so it repeats.

This is Fuimaiono’s career as a first grade footballer.

Handy enough to get a crack
Minutes diminish in his role
Turns into a utility
Leaves


Of course they need to play McGuire ahead of him. Dragons playing with a lot of steal and although edge is a problem, this gives them a top-8 chance. Simple gameplan the veteran coaching staff are going with: mongrel in the middle. Bash them up in the forwards to let and a second tier of playmakers and little fast guys have time and space to do their thing.

Lawrie
Alvaro
Merrin
McGuire

They’re all basically the same player. Vaughan offers something slightly different, but not much

Unless they're injured, on Origin duties (Which he is a while from doing) or you are absolutely desperate for cash, never trade someone averaging close to 60 like Munster.

Yeah I think a legit option is just play Fui this week alongside Crichton, and ignore the edge problem for a week while I wait for Schuster's DPP and a better/affordable EDG option as well.

That assumes Fui still has a spot with the McGuire arrival.

But I'll probably do that, if I don't go with Wade Graham

This is my plan (and I assume everyone with just one of Fifita/Crichton will be in a similar position)

I'm waiting for TLT before really planning anything. Mostly in case Manly or the Tigers throw something up.

Maybe Sitili if he goes back to starting

If you need I would pick up a mid like Lodge (broncos ) or Bunty and do a little bit of switching around. Assume you have Schuster? He shd be good for DPP next week.

This.

Silly Concreters:

Legend status initiated

Just noticed someone got 47 points in 53 minutes playing second row off the bench and only missed 2 tackles. Anyone else keen to join the party?

Disappointed Niu has been dropped missing the clash of Leniu vs Le Niu

But seriously is Riki + Niu to Peachey + Hampton no brainer trades

I’m 11k short of Riki to Peachey, so could do Gosiewski to Verrills as another alternative

Was initially just thinking Gosiewski to Hampton

Milf - Fogarty seems like a logical trade right

Couldn’t Clifford take Hamptons spot at any point?

Riki benched rather than dropped

Advice for my team with 139k spare:

Macca
Angus Watson Alvaro
Fifita Riki
Cleary Schuster
Momo Roberts
Teddy Pap Laurie

Brailey Turpin Liddle Uto
S. Walker Leniu Niu Simonsson.

Peachey just got 69 in 80 minutes which is making him seem like a buy but is he really? The week before he got 31 in 59 minutes - the max he will get bar injury. And before then his scores haven’t been to outstanding either

Decision will probably be made tomorrow when teams come out, but any other suggestions for cows to trade in rather than Verrils?

Overall score 4897, rank 3867 and will have 28 trades after doing 2 this week.

I like the idea, but you could be screwed if he has another setback.

Yeah a stupid idea, just needed someone to talk me out of it haha

Riki could be a hold for a week.. could easily get his spot back

Cowboys won their first game of the year with Hampton so should be ok short term. But yeah there is always that risk

Rabbits21 wrote:

Possibly but Clifford is off to the Knights, they just won a game with Hampton and they don't have a terribly tough draw coming up with matches against the Dogs and Broncos in the next month. It's a risk but there isn't a whole lot of competition for his spot.

It’s CTR! Give me 30 everyday of the week and I’m happy

He played in the halves not the middle in R4 due to Fogarty being injured

Nice easy one there

frustrating with Milf because his scores were good and he was making quick cash! Annoying having to swap him to someone who isn't much of a points upgrade
