NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 72 - Turbo-charged guacamole

Kelly's 55 sitting in EMG when Burton and Avo only combined for 50 is bloody annoying.

First time I've benched him all year, of course.

Why did Simonson only play 70? Injured or hooked?

618 with four to come , this week has not gone well. There have been some pretty self indulgent dummy spits this weekend and some overly hostile blamestorming….cheer up motherfuckers it’s a game.

Foot/Ankle injury. Didn't look good.

829 with SJ and Lucy to go. Not too bad considering captain Tohu, Simonsson and Burton.

Today cleared up a few things in terms of trades. Looks like Fog and Watson will stick around for the year, still in the fence about Matto but he's earned another shot.

Next week looking like Brailey, Jones, and Lucy/Schuster to Verrills, AFB, and Lolo. Maybe Jackson too if I sell both Shuster and Lucy.

Simo might be a sell too mate.

Can't think of a worse week for me in fantasy, both for scoring (613/14 with Haas, SJ, ARey, even worse than anyone else who's moaning) or for careful plans falling apart. Anyway... onwards (to an SJ injury, probably)

Brilliant. Walsh, Schuster, Tohu, Simonsson on my R17 injury list. Avo and SJ are the only fit players I have for next round, so watch out tomorrow SJ.

I wouldn't even worry about Round 17 too much. Most people will have minimal players for the round and the ones use up trades to get people will run out of trades before the end of the season.

Yup, he might become Suaalii. Disaster of a round for R17 injuries between the Schuster news, Tohu, and Simonsson.

Cruel game at times.

Watson up to 86 niceee

823 with Cook, Haas and Latrell to play. Didn't plan for Round 17 so I've got lucky in the misery of others which while I don't take delight in should see me stick around the same 4000-5000 mark heading into the end of the season.

Really just playing for the mod title x3

Lol I picked my own trades mate this week I got in Fifita and SJ, just ask @wolfking! There are many calls I’ve made myself this year. Of course I still like to get some advice and thoughts on here. Just recently getting in Olakau’atu has paid off, most of the forum said don’t get him but I went with my gut and looked at how he was playing and he has the potential to bust lots of tackles has a very big frame so I picked him up for 397k DPP and so far he scored me a 40 and 51 which I’m stoked with amongst the carnage I can’t ask for more than that from him!

I made the call to get Haas very early on this year I paid 910k for him as I thought he’d be brilliant this year again but looking at it now it was a bad call but I can’t blame anyone but myself as it was a call I made. I’m just riding out Haas now and I have faith a massive one is around the corner. I mean he hasn’t been brilliant for me but hasn’t been awful either.

Not having I Pap would be my biggest regret so far of the season but oh well cant have them all!

By the way a positive case of Covid had been shopping at my work and I was on at the time considered a close contact have to go and get a test and isolate for 14 days. Well I had the test this arvo but still gotta isolate. Got a call from my works HR and messages from NSW health.

Oh well at least I get to rest up it’s not too bad plenty of footy to watch and fantasy to keep me entertained as well as Wimbledon tennis. I will catch up on lots of tv. I have some friends and workmates to message or call as well if I feel low and down at any point. The cat will be happy that’s for sure she will love to jump on my bed and want me to give her good attention before she goes to sleep purring!

Yeah, cause you ask so fucking much and don't offer any advice to others mate.

I agree with this he gives no advice to others on their teams.

I’ve sent him a few PM’s this year and pretty much every one he’s ignored so if he’s gonna ignore me I’m not gonna help him at all. It goes both ways.

Come on England!!!!

The Good- Reversing Watson trade due to Lodge not playing
The Bad- Simonsson in the 17 due to Lodge not playing
The Ugly- The state of Round 17 players

I traded Laurie out this week because I thought I was covered for WFB with Simonsson lol. Adding to potentially no Walsh plus Teddy and Turbo a possibility of being rested I could have 1 fit WFB for R18 in Hynes.

I did trade Laurie out to Fifita though so silver lining.
