NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 83 - the chin is back... still a sore shoulder, as a matter of fact

Mahoney to Cleary would be nice but the only back up hookers I have are Verrills and Watson so that isn't ideal.

oh bugger. Mahoney owner?

Yep....I do still have a variety of ordinary hookers in my 18-21 including Croker (who is playable and has been played most weeks), Verrills, Watson & Hetherington but was tossing up between Brailey & Watson for Ponga and came down on the wrong side. It's more the number of trade outs is mounting with Mahoney, Hynes, Watson & CHN all hanging around

Not a total disaster still have trades left but contemplating the same move as you (Hynes to Grant) but given the carnage maybe Hynes stays

Yeah if Hynes bleeds anymore cash it makes my Cleary trade less comfortable.
So happy to make the trade and hope Hynes’ role continues to get smaller

You and MTB were totally right - it’s stopped counting official leagues (overall, club) at R20. Other leagues are still doing live ranks

Axe is sharpened and hovering over SJ's and May's neck

I cannot be thrilled about my 5/360 when i am only fielding 15 men this week (Brailey and Peachy out, still holding Cleary). Now resorting to hoping other peoples teams fall apart even faster than mine at the back end, as I float around in a sea of red dots.

TBH if rank stops now I'm not that angry. Was 2711 before R17 bye and now just outside top 1k at 1263

Considering I've only owned Turbo for one week (last week) and missed guys like IPap until after Origin, pretty happy with that

Middle of the road?

Maybe a little off... I'm 451/7c (Bird, Reynolds, Matterson)

Yeah, that's shit luck, but on the bright side you you've missed all the plodders scores this weekend? Any due back in the coming weeks?

Surely overall doesn’t stop updating? First year playing so excuse the naivety but it’ll update at some point this round..right?

440/8c so that's the other end of the spectrum. Refusing to use my last 2 trades while I have 17, at least till next week. Said 17 includes CHN/Watson/Verrillis.

When they fix the script, probably.

Call me crazy but I still think Fog plays.

He's their co-captain, just resigned for 2 years, and the Titans are a good chance of making the 8. Why not give him an extra week's rest against the Dogs to make sure he's 100% to push for the top 8? The alternative is a 2 game rookie who looked pretty good (though, fantasy goggles off, I don't think as good as some here are making out) against the Dragons and Dogs.

We'll see, but that's my two cents.

249/5, but really 360/6(c) once Macca's 18th man score, Haas' captaincy, and Watson/Ponga's updates are added in.

I've got Verrills in 18 and I'm doubling Haas's scored as VC. Avoided CHN and sold Watson before his 80 so nice that I can feel a bit better about it now!

Fifita and Turbo gonna reward people who captained them this round I Think.

Yeah those aforementioned three. Stuck with some bad cashouts like Suaalii id planned to use as cover but are now permareds. Not that i’m terribly invested, i used up a stack of my last trades going sideways in R17 knowing full well id need them at them backend but my season was so dusted it didn't really matter. Id be happy to finish top 4-5k at this point, a second abysmal season in a row

How are the trousers faring in these tumultuous times?

6/381 C for me but I’m worried about Teddy Angus and Manu in tonight’s game.

Not crazy, he will play.
