NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 54 - Flippity Floppity Boo

Getting Starling first makes sense given BEs and all, but I still can't help but think going backwards in terms of R13 numbers isn't the play. Then again, no guarantee Simpkin plays at all, and Stefano surely comes back at some point, so it probably works out the same either way?

If I go through with that, it leaves me with:

Brailey
Tohu Crichton Watson
Lucy Matto
Cleary Moses
Avo Kelly
Ted Laurie Walsh

Fog Starling Walker Schuster

Stefano Roberts Leniu Pap

20 trades, 101k

In an ideal world, Stefano, Roberts, and Leniu find their way back in, and Schuster, Walker, Walsh & maybe Crichton make way for R13 players for 14-15 playing the first bye.

Is that a reasonable plan, or just get the better JS, R13 gun while you can?

In fact no I won’t I’ll get S. Crichton he is avg 35 more running metres a game and his try scoring is a bit down on last year so I think that’ll pick up and he’s avg is around 40 and Penrith won’t lose many games at all and he has valuable DPP and an extra round 13 number. Gives me 10 round 13 players now which is much better.

Means I miss Starling but it is what it is for now can always get him after round 13 if he keeps killing it.

Pap to Hughes I may as well take the risk.

I will get Pap back in later.

If you went 2 of Peachey/Averillo/Bird from the start you’ve done as well as you would have in any position IMO. It just feels worse when they have a 1-2 week out, compared to Cleary/Papy/Fifita/Harris etc who are easier to either hold or trade depending on setup when they have missed games

I was gunning for round 13 too but ended up trading both Stefan and Simpkin to get Starling.  There's no point holding out for a potential 30 points from both in round 13 when Starling and Koro in your case could net 50 points each now.  Starling is a great price and it's not worth holding out on potentially a couple of extra points in round 13.  Those points aren't even garunteed also as neither are in the 17 again as you know.  Why take 2 steps back now when you could possibly only take 1 step forward again in round 13.

Main worry atm is that he could possibly be out for the next 3.

You've got 20 trades which is more than most I'd say. Could be value in going for a R13 gun and getting a boost in overall points.
