NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 43 - I met up with the Gambler

With the 20m optional kick, just don't be Brett Finch.
Attempt to find touch with scores level and only a couple of minutes to go. Kick it out on the full and concede a penalty to lose the game.

But get a Andrew John's shorts as consolation post game

Yeah I would be happy with a big Bird.

NBrown out sucks for the Eels, I'm curious to see who is going to take that 13 jumper. Ipap may be first in line, but there is the possibility of a Carty party. Toot toot!

Also, on another note, @Fiona why didn't Cini get DPP?

Not that Moses picks the team, but he mentioned Lane at LK in the post-match interview.

Yeah Tapine control your missus bro it makes you look like a cat when your wife is running her tongue. Teach her some respect bro.

Kirsten Tapine you won't have to worry about Riki's bench rotations from now on with your husband in reserve grade for the rest of the year lol.

574/9 with Alvaro, Bird, Laurie, Walsh, Hampton, Tohu and Simpkin to go.

I guess I'll make up some ground today hopefully.

Haha definitely not ideal the way they have gone about it and I say they as I don't believe she just forms this opinion by herself and posts it without joe having any knowledge of it not a great look at all really for all parties involved

I read this article by a recruitment agency about the 8 ways you can lose your job & 1 of the points was....don't criticise your boss on social media

Hmmm not sure if Lane would provide the best service from Lock, his passing game is not the best.

682 with macca tohu Laurie walsh simpkin to come hope macca and tohu can go big because everyone else is probably playing the other 3 and looking likely for a bad score.

What are we thinking is an average score for this round ?
A lot of popular players having off weeks and just realizing peachy might be a must have this year

715/12c with Bird, Hampton, Laurie, Simpkins, Macca remaining. Very hard to tell if I'm doing well or not. Doesn't seem like a big scoring round for anyone. Hitting anywhere over 900 is prob the goal this week. Hard when the goal a few weeks ago was 1100 just to hold your rank.

Need another mid to get Watson onto the interchange bench, looking like Harris , but would prefer Lolo

Expecting Burns to be named to start today to make my CHN trade in look silly

Just catching up on the forum.

I thought I'd mention;

Speaking after the match Robinson confirmed a brave Morris had refused the medicab, not wanting to be carted off in what could be his final moment in the NRL.

He also said Boys for the most part don't like medicabs.
I think it's fair enough and actually quite respectful of the players, especially given it wasn't neck/spine & no chance of aggravating the injury.

RTS, Walsh, Laurie, Bird, Hampcoin, Simpkkin to go

Feel like it's a good sytart, iPap and Swalker really helped.

Regretting going Haas not TPJ this week, I feel he's a huge POD and this week was the chance to grab him.. similar to iPap express a few weeks ago.

I have a bit of FOMO as well after going Harris over TPJ. Just think he really stepped up for the derby clash though

Score of 67 including a TA, THREE TOs and a TS. All of which aren’t sustainable. That’s 22 points right there that he wouldn’t get on average. He also got two TS and a try against Parra last week, so a lot of boosted points. His base isn’t the greatest either. Like a high 40, low 50 kind of guy.

TLDR on averages Haas will do you better by season end

Pec issue for Roberts apparently

762/11 Hampton, Egan, Bird, Lucy, Laurie, Simpkin. A 40 average from those 6 get me to 1000, but something tells me I fall just short. Still, remaining in the top 5000 at rounds end would be good for the team.

WT2K wrote:Pec issue for Roberts apparently

If Cini plays half decent, I doubt Roberts gets back in the team. Was due to be dropped anyway

WT2K wrote:Pec issue for Roberts apparently

So most likely he'll be back to scoring 8-14 points sitting in my EMG scores next week. Excellent.
