NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 54 - Flippity Floppity Boo

Anyone else think Adam o’Brien’s constantly cranked up to 11 shtick has a short shelf life in terms of motivational impact. He rollled it out from the start regardless of results and left himself with nowhere to go (unless he tries the ‘I’m not angry I’m just disappointed’ pivot )

Gotta mix it up. Like, yell at them before kickoff Madge style

That's exactly what I thought...embarrassing for the Knights

I agree with putting Watson into 13 from the start now the Knights are down on troops get Barnett and Fitzy to do the Ipap/Carty type role. Mann in the halves, Hoy at FB.
Get Watson's energy to rub off on the rest of the team from the start.

...maybe I need to look at getting a coaching gig.

Just caught up on the team news... friendship ended with Hynes. Now Walsh is my best friend.

Other trade is Matterson.

Yeah I know a risky pick given his inconsistent scoring. He will have to stay, hope he gets moving again, it's only one week hey.

If Best wasn't out, my two trades take a whole different path.

I got him last week where he limped to 50. just under 200m and got amount of tackles. No tackle breaks and somehow 6 missed and a sin binning. Im sure he will be fine!

Yep fuck it I need to try get some cash gen happening I’m already behind the eight ball in this regard:

Pap to Walsh and Uto to S. Crichton leaves me 474k spare and the following:

Brailey
Alvaro Haas Watson
CHN Schuster
Cleary Moses
S. Crichton Bird
Teddy Walsh Tommy T

Macca Angus S. Walker Laurie
Simonsson Simpkin Peachey Pap

Can decide whether I wanna use the cash come round 23 or whether I hold the cash to look at upgrades post round 13 eg Laurie, Macca, Watson, potenatially Alvaro and S. Walker as well.

Tohu and Lolo are defs targets after round 13. I will have to wear a bit of a hit in round 13 but oh well not much can be done about it and it’s only one round as well.

Who should I play for my last spot?

Take Watson 40 odd. Or run the dice with Walker, Laurie or Atkins? Atkins is my least favourite as the storm are going to have their way with the raiders

Aekins*

But personally I would either take the 40 or go with Walker.

Walsh is nearly owned by 70percent of the top 5000 teams shit I didn’t know that. If he scores 60-70 tomorrow which is very possible against Wests  and I did not have him I’d kick myself the kids a gun reminds me of a young Ponga things just magically seem to happen when he’s out there it’s freakish.

Is anyone gonna be not able to field 17 this week? If so that sucks

For the 5th week in a row I won't be fielding 17.

This is why it pains me to watch you panic weekly over decisions I'd love to be able to make hahaahah

How many trades you got left?

Show me your team let me see if I can offer any help.

I can’t help it’s just me  it’s how I am!

You’ll probs overtake me soon if you’re not already in the ranks anyway.

They really need to look at giving us a few extra trades next year or making the squad size back to 25.

I'll update my team tracker, don't wanna jam the main page up.

Hahahaa yeah it's been one tough year alright. Could def use the extra trades like we got last year. Funny enough cause last year I was tracking well and didn't necessarily require those extra trades but this year it's literally the opposite

I’m sure no one would mind if you posted it up I wouldn’t mind at all.

I’ll check out your team tracker when it’s updated.

Your luck will have to turn soon surely you’ll catch a lucky break.

I'd be inclined to take the 43.

If Walker definitely lines up, might be worth a punt, though.

He very well could do it, but I'd be hesitant to hope Laurie hits 40.

Updates are in:

Holmes 51
Bowen 29
Tualagi 93
Drinkwater 52
Gilbert 38
Robson 38
Taumalolo 29

Mann 32
Crossland 33
Klemmer 40
Brailey 45 up by 5
D. Saifiti 54
Frizell 41
Barnett 34
Watson 45 up by 2
J. Saifiti 53

All things considered I’m stoked with 45 from Watson that’s just fine. I can’t believe I’ve seen mentioned that a couple of people were considering jumping off him. I have other issues in my side Watson selling is the last thing on my list currently.  I would happily take 45 consistently in my 17. He could be one to hold all year ideally in your 14-17. I cant see myself getting a team with all keepers I think I’ll be short a guy maybe 2 so someone like Watson is very handy.
