NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 41 - Didn't see that coming!

Teddy dead, considering I was going to trade him over Origin anyway, I think I have to get him out after this week. He's surely going to miss next week with a 6 day turnaround.

Not sure exactly who I want for him, but he has to be sold.

No, no it's not

Pretty sure I'll be flicking him. Even if he does play next week, his BE is going to be huge, he isn't getting the points in this Roosters team, and he's a certainty for Origin

Selling things near the bottom of their market is a really bad strategy.

If you don't have him, congratulations you got really lucky and he'll be a great buy.

If you do have him, suck it up or live to regret it.

Going to be well under $700k, missed his BE by over 70.

Well that puts a line through my chances of increasing in ranks haha. At this rate I won't actually finish in the top 30k.

if he gets picked for origin I might not want him over that period, and he's going to lose a lot of money between now and then, I think in this Roosters side he's not the player he once was, and so I think I need to do it sooner rather than later.

I've always avoided Teddy early thinking I'll grab him cheaper and usually regret it and the one year I buy him rd 1 he'll be available for like 600k by round 8

Conversely I avoided Cleary this year maybe I'm just really bad at decision making

He can still drop a lot more from here, it isn't anywhere near the bottom of the market.

Sometimes you need to cut your losses and retain the money you can.

James Graham reckons that shouldn't be a send-off. What the fuck is a send off if that isn't James you dopey fuck

EDIT: For once I agree with Braith here.

I was going to sell him over Origin anyway, I think he has to go now in my case.

I'm confident Bellyache will let Pappy play next week to assist fantasy coaches.

Five rounds until Origin. Plenty of time to correct his price before then.

It's Graham, he could have fully decapitated him and he'd be like nah not a send off

There was no intent to tackle high, his hands are waist height. Not his fault Teddy slipped.

Compare it with the Radley high tackle at neck height, that connected and still got off at judiciary

Watching the replay, can confirm that Pereira was, indeed, not "unlucky".

Some might even say that the one with the bad luck was Tedesco, for getting blindsided high and late after passing the ball.

As Mal said, who has a far greater footy brain than anyone on this forum, he could have pulled out of that tackle.

I’m 100% sure you have never played any form of sport before.

That's if he scored like 75 average lol.

The other side of the coin as mentioned is he's not scoring the same in this side without Keary, sadly. Might not even play next week, think it's a cut my losses scenario im afraid.

He won't play next week. So that's 4 rounds.

His BE is going to be astronomical when he does play. He would need to have a couple of monstrous weeks to even stabilise the price he's about to drop to in that 4 week stretch.
