NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 38 - Milkshakes, Centers and travel bubbles

From the Chad press release for those worried on Hampton;

Townsend said there is no ill-feeling with Sharks management and has pledged not to let his Cronulla teammates down for the rest of the season.

“I want Sharks fans and members to know that I‘m committed to this season,” he said. “I’m grateful for their support over the years.”

Not that that really means much.

Don't think he plays mate. Saifiti, Haas, Paulo and Jrbo will be the FRF rotation for mine.

Thanks mate will give him more of a look for trade in then

Plus I seen TPJ wanting origin, how likely?

I think less than that for Klem.

What, trading IPap in mate?

IPap and Hampton, yup. One down one up. Outta Latrell and Liddell. Can't keep a guy that ain't gonna be back for 4 weeks or another that may not be back at all

You'd go iPap over Tohu?

Nice. Leaning this way too.

Things can obviously change, but can't see The Chad leaving this season.

If the Sharks are in the mix for low end of finals are they going to release Chad early with SJ injury potentially around the corner. Sticks whole season I reckon

Correct. Rd13 was a selling point there. I'd defs go Tohu to be honest if IPaps Be wasn't so low and he didn't play 13. Even off the bench IPap score well enough for me to run through til 13 and then offload if need be

I've been trying to decide which way to go all week and keep bouncing one way or the other. Tohu has the guarentee of minutes and position, whereas iPap obviously has Matto there and the chance to lose minutes. He's almost undroppable now though, and with a lower BE and plays Rd13... i think you're right.

Klem is cooked and has now entered plodder territory.

He is not playing origin.

I'm just a basic AF bloke mate, if something looks simple to me then simple me will take it

How I see it too

The two outs for me this week are: Trell and Riki

Keen to get Turbo in, makes money and coin. Origin and Byes are problematic though.

Was thinking second trade will go Moses. Although im starting to consider Veralis. Makes money and builds a bank for next week.

in saying that, im pretty stoked with my team at the moment. Wont have any obvious trade outs pending injuries.

Agree with all that.

I still think Tohu is the better buy based on pedigree and DPP. I feel like that Bye coverage is the only positive for Ipap. He has to improve even further to make enough money to make him worth bringing in then sell again, unless you consider him a keeper. Matto is out, so no guarantee he holds the spot, despite how well he is playing. I was at the raiders game. he spent ALOT of time on the wing, hands on head.

Disclaimer, i own him, but have for the last 4 rounds.

My mate's doing me a huge solid and dropping me a bag from her tree tonight.

Gonna take in all the sweet vitamin C and shit puree for days.

Ipap also has DPP.

EDIT: Also how quick people are to forget Tohu's injury history but players like Reynolds are seen as "injury prone"

I reckon you're paying overs for iPap now. Priced at 64 assuming a magic number in the early 12,000s. Just don't see him hitting that as consistently as Tohu longterm.

Scored 51 in his only start in the second row where he hasn't scored a try this season. 4 tries in 3 games surely unsistainable. Long term average on the edge is 47.5, albeit in a different team & different rules so big grain of salt. Matto is always a threat and hard to think of many bench middles who can sustain a 50+ avg.

In his favour is DPP, R13, low BE, and an excellent draw, so do understand the temptation.
