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

Brailey
Watson, Lodge, Stefano
Fifita, Tups
Cleary, Munster
Peachey, Roberts
Brimson, Laurie, Hampton

Turpin, Schuster, Simpkin, Papy
Walker, O’Sullivan, Tino, Momo

Have already done Riki > Hampton and have 550k to spend on Tino.

Thoughts lads? Surely it has to be spent in the MIDs?

I can go Tommy T in for Pap but come origin when both Teddy and Tommy T are rested in the same round I’m screwed.

That’s my concern.

I also don’t have as many Round 13 players as others do!

You need a wfb and a ctr this week. Nui to Hampton is the obvious one then you can trade in a 'gun' ctr like bird and use Hampton to cover Papy.

I think this is your best option rather than trading papy who may be back next week

Yep!

Hmm good point. Agghhh!!

Interesting that Bellamy said in the press conference that he certainly won't miss any games.
Then he's out this week, but two weeks max.

It almost gives me a little déjà vu from back when Munster was fullback at the storm and he'd be a late withdrawal and miss a week, which would become two, which would become...


In reality the best case scenario is that he plays 10 of the next 11 games

Yep, bulk the mid up

A cheeky $10 on DBrown for 'Any Time Scorer' or is too late?

Thought it was odd he went from starting last week to left right out this week. Obviously had decided already.

I think he would've pulled up the next day sore and miserable and thought, wtf am I doing

I think it might have been Gallen who said it, he knew it was time to retire during his last game - just felt his legs just not give into it 100%. Knew on the field that it was it. I imagine the same for Merrin. Look forward to him jumping one of these podcasts

Bets already resulted... he scored already

I've never forgotten that. It's one of the reasons I've gone Turbo. I want decent scores while Pappy (or whoever next time) is out which could be one, two, three weeks.....I don't trust those kents.

Selecting Turbo to avoid concerns about injury

Lucy over IPap?

I get the irony, but Turbo will give good scores if fit, which of course is true of anybody.

Ah the complicated life of a fantasy player

Fact of the matter is that he is not injured currently so he is as good as a pick as anyone.

I've ended up with a reconditioned turbo. Hopefully doesn't blow again.

Big subwoofers aye bro ?

It is true of anyone (Levi, Gosiewski et al excepted) - it's just a bigger IF with Turbo

Host or Lawrie?

Did someone say Ryan Matterson is playing reserve grade this week?

Kurt Capewell has been named to move to the centres, with Liam Martin coming into the starting lineup on the edge.
