NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 42 - TLT Return of the MILF

Anyone have any insight into Kami's reduced minutes last weekend?

Don't see much upside outside of R13

priced at 49, averaged 52 last season which included a load of games playing 70-80 minutes

Can't see him getting those big minutes in that Dragons pack and he's not an explosive scorer so need the larger minute games to maintain that higher average

No for me

Beautiful mate. Turpin to Macca looks like a good one to start with then

Id wait to see what koro bottoms out at before committing to McGuire, unless you really need a mid

So Fifita is salivating at the prospect of Milf playing

We holding lil Papi and Teddy?

I have the cover but Simmonson, Laurie and To'o feels too weak.

Who would you guys prefer (focusing more on h2h so don't need to prepare for byes as they are weeks off)

TU: Frizell
TD: Macca

There are no cash outs that don't feel somewhat trappy. Thinking of saving trades and see if Haas gets any cheaper and if Taumalolo gets back into form. I feel I'm too far behind to be buying stepping stones.

My MIDs are currently Watson, Lodge and Stefano with Tino away so yeah you could say I’m in need of a knight in shining armour

How does Verills feel trappy? He is their long term hooker and will be playing big minutes most weeks once he gets some more game time?

I'd give him a miss personally

Scores below keeper tier and won't make enough cash to be a cow. I'd prefer Collins or Thompson in that price range although neither plays round 13

There was a mention of some sort of injury during the game last week. Didn't catch the details but explains why he didn't come back on

Yeah I think they said a shoulder burner or something didn't they? Can't really remember though

Yeah I suppose you're right. He isn't trappy, it's just that I made the error of buying Marschke and don't want to get Verrils until Marschke is off the bench. Also, I just wanted to post something.

I'm considering moving Papy over Teddy.

Papy, assuming origin he plays 6 of next 10 fixtures. That current average will be incredibly difficult to maintain, if he does fair play but with some potential regression I can probably get him back cheaper R18

Tedesco assuming he plays this week plays 8 of 10, and lost so much cash with the 6 that I think its selling too low for someone I'm 95% sure you want in WFB at end of season, so not worth trading out at current price to potentially buy back for $150k more later

Think I've landed on Lucy and Fog in this week

Looking like this for round 13

Brailey
Watson, X, Welch*
Leilua, Crichton*
Moses, Fogarty
Bird, Roberts
Laurie, Reimis, X

Simpkin, Leniu, Munster*, X
Cleary, Teddy, Schuster, Turbo/Walker/Verrills*

Plan to trade Welch, Munster and Crichton in round 13 to guns that are playing. The likes of McCullough, Koroisau, Matterson, Carrigan on the radar that week.

Can only afford to hold 4 through round 13 if I want 17 so will need to probably cash out Turbo and Walker. Don't want to mess around with trading in guys on the fringes of origin selection.

Need to get rid of Niu before then if he isn't playing, although most of the cow options are not playing round 13

Man it is tempting to gooooooooone Teddy.

Luckily the draw plays out so I can have finger hanging over the reverse trade button (for Walsh, no worries @Regulator) - not expecting Tha Ted to run on but if he does I want to keep him.

Side point: what do you regulate? Energy, finance, sewerage, health?

Cheers mate. Gonna be tough to choose a suitable MID this week

Best MID currently for R13 is IPap but want to see scores with a fit Matterson

Interesting approach to it. I was leaning flicking T-Dawg on the basis that the chooks attack patterns look to have changed, with him being much more of a centre field lynchpin than a round the edges threat.

I should go back and watch a few games, but who has time?


No, seriously, does anyone have the time to watch R5,6,7 to see if it looks different? I’m corralling a couple of toddlers and a bad drinking habit, so the dance card is pretty booked.
