NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 84 - I got 99 problems, and a lack of trades is one of them

Lolo wanking injury

If you were going to keep one of Crichtion Lolo, which would it be?

Crichton will get one more game
Lolo will get 0-3 games (likely less than 3)

Jason Taumalolo has fractured his hand AGAIN. Will miss this week and likely more games.

Lol, Payten really doesn't like him hey, no doubt he keeps doing this.

Shocking couple of weeks this. That Cleary punt last week looking silly AF.

At least I know now I'll have Angus for round 25.

At this stage you'd probably hold Lolo -

Cowboys website:
The injury is on Taumalolo’s left hand, but is a different break than the one suffered in the week leading into Round 6.

Taumalolo sustained the injury carrying the football in the 30th minute of Sunday’s loss to the Titans, but in a courageous effort was able to finish the game.

The 28-year-old will be assessed early next week to decide his availability for Round 23.

I don't see the point, he's been fucking useless and even if he comes back for the last couple of rounds, he'll still be a spud.

Saying that, with Lolo, I'd only have 658K to spend on a player. Would probably punt on Friz is I trade him.

As I posted, for Crichton I could turn him into Murray, Tolo I could only turn into someone like Friz. Seems better punting Angus based on that, but at least he will play round 25, Tolo who knows.

Sounds semi-promising for Cleary, but who knows.

JDB played 76 minutes, but they had a couple of players go down, didn't they?

Weird. I could read it before as a non subscriber, just refreshed and now I can't.

Basically says Nathan is keen to play, finished a full contact session yesterday and back at 100% in the gym, pestering his dad to play, but Ivan is less convinced and will leave the decision to game day.

I have a feeling that the Reed Mahoney injury was bad for Cleary, Ivan would’ve seen it and decided to give Cleary an extra few weeks off to try and make it as strong as possible before playing him

I only meant it in terms of trading him OR Crichton..

Yeah, fair call mate.

He must have only just started this year...someone needs to give that lad a tutorial to stop him getting it so horribly wrong

I have learnt my lesson hard. Never will I ever leave myself so short on trades at the end of the year.

Need to trade To’o, Lolo, Chrichton, Fog, Hynes and possibly CHN depending on team lists. EDIT: forgot to say… and no trades.

Tbh though the more I think about my trades this year a very high percentage of them were forced through injury and not just me been a daft twat. Been a tough ol year for fantasy

I don't think an extra one or two weeks will help Cleary, only the end of season will. He just needs to hope he doesn't re-injure, it was risk they all took with not doing the surgery when it first happened.

He used to be able to unleash that energy on the field, but now under Payten..

He definitely needs more minutes...the chopping and changing has obviously ruined his stroke

lol that's a funny scenario to imagine.

I've been playing for a few years now and I've always managed to avoid a lot of injuries. The last few weeks is probably the worse I have ever had it and there are others that are even worse of. Saying that, I have/had all those players you mentioned too, plus SJ, Laurie, Moses (who I should have held over Fog), AFB (luckily I held and he returned in a week), so I think I'm overdue for a season ending injury to my fantasy team to be truthful.
