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

Made it through TLT with 20/21 green dots so in a position to get on the front foot.

Riki>Simpkin only trade for this week taking banked trades to 7. Have a feeling next week I'll have to double trade Turpin and possibly SOS.

Gives a chance to wait a week on Verrills. I like his potential as a fantasy scorer but think he starts from the bench this week so price shouldn't run away

Think I'll probably have to move Niu on sooner rather than later, as I expect he comes back on the wing if at all

Gallen scores better when AFifita is sideline

Chris Garry seems to think the Cowboys are favourites to sign Dearden. The Broncos are supposed to have had a meeting with him this week, not sure if there was any outcome to that.

If Dearden does sign with the Cowboys then Croft might just hold a spot in the halves... big gamble though because he's not a good player.

Well that could be awkward for Ben. Bit of a pickle, though, as I still have both Milf and Hampton in my team so the move would benefit one and sac-slap the other.

7 banked trades?! Holy hell!

I think this is probably his last week of good cash generation. Can probably hold him a few weeks to eek out another 20k but think I'd rather jump to the next cow.

Of course if SOS comes out looking like the first few weeks with a 50+ I'll hold

Lodge?

Cheers Chewie,

Lodge is already with the lads, have now added Collins as an option. Would be nicer if he was starting though

Alternative is to just bank a trade and play Stefano and keep Tino

Yeah I gasped at that too. I thought I was doing well with 4. Unfortunately this week and already next week look like they're going to have to be full trade weeks which I was really hoping to avoid.

2 of them were forced by injury as well

Gee you've done well. Looking like your plan of max trading from rounds 10-16 is pretty safe at this stage? I was trying to do similar, but am already eating into those trades.

Even if it means I'm short in the back end of the year I'll be max trading for byes. It is the best part of the season to make up ground

If I make the one trade this week and just play Stefano and keep Tino ill have banked 4 trades. Thats generally pretty good for me

This Hampton v Crichton is a real brain teaser.

Do you pay 100k more for excellent job security, playing in a good team, playing the first bye?

Just had an honesty session with the lads in the team, captain Cleary spoke up and said if Hampton comes anywhere near this team he won't re sign for next year. Back to the drawing board.

Cleary and Momo have just sent me a WhatsApp message saying that Crichton is ready to explode over the next month and that I should probably get him in this week.

Could.be the dawning of a new age !

No interest in Turbo ?

Is the better play just to go Ponga over Turbo? Turbo really risky as he's not a TB fullback. I see his scores emulating Brimson

A lot of interest but just can’t bring myself to do it haha. Also if I get Crichton I can play him over Roberts next week if Papy is back.

I don’t think he can possibly be that rubbish
