NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 54 - Flippity Floppity Boo

1st burning through trades seemed to bring in bowen for someone and maybe Walsh not sure haven't kept track of his team each week

Adam O’Brien lost me at the start of the year when he was involved in an scuffle at a race meeting and upon being ejected by security used the old " Don’t you know who I am? " line.

Can't stand people who would think to use that phrase at anytime or for that matter anyone that references their name in the third person.

I captained him. The gun that I captain each week gets their worst score of the season that week.

So you are saying captain roulette doesn't work?

Well any indecision I had over who I would play between Walsh and Laurie on my team has gone out the window.

Fuck needed cover for peachy and last min swapped to suali because I thought he will go big In an easy match up and will get games while Ted plays Soo but forgot peachys out 2 weeks hope he goes big and make enough points to cover both weeks or gets another start next week my bad lol

You can't reverse?

Realistically it looks like my option is to either keep pappy and trade Crichton over origin, or trade pappy now and keep Crichton. Given how barren the MID wasteland and the propensity for MID players to get binned (based on no stats) I believe pappy must make way

In a logical world he keeps the 1 but it’s Nathan Brown that is the one concerning thing you just dunno what he will do.

I'd say it'd be more logical to play one of the best FBs in the league at FB actually

Today will be deciding between Walsh or Starling. Will be most likely Starling and MBye or Walsh and Kelly. Hmmm...

Do you want me to tell you what I think you should do so you can go ahead and do the other?

Go!

Today I need to decide if it is worth using a trade on Curran to Hynes. All it really does for me is provides cash generation and a round 13 scorer plus potential round 14 extra. Don't need the extra body as already sitting two of Walker/Watson/CHN/Laurie.

A trade like this probably means I can more likely carry Teddy, Crichton, Haas, Cleary during origin. Only one I would consider trading is Crichton which I probably will do before round 13 for someone like Matterson/Leilua etc.

TU Use trade - Curran to Hynes
TD Save trade

R13 strat is going to make way for the mean time. Currently don’t want any of Koro Mahoney MC9 ipap or To’o. Simonsson and Pappy out for Walsh and Manu* (undecided if I want cash locked up in peachy, s.critta, manu this early on)

Stick with my trade ins of Teddy + a CTR (for 17) or follow the crowd with a Starling/Walsh/Beans. Hmm...

I dreamt last night that I read people complaining on this forum about Averillo's 3. Vivid enough that when I woke up I checked the scores, not even remembering that the dogs didn't play last night.

That’s either a nightmare or a wet dream depending on whether you sold him in r4 like me

Classic WT Winfield watches rugby league and he doesn't even know who the fuck O'Brian is.

15 minutes of real time not game time. So if you get a HIA shortly before half time or shortly before a stoppage in play you can be back in less than 15

Can't believe Averillo only scored 3 points 
The CTR dramas continue
