NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 12 - The first rule of trade club is, we only trade CTRs

Was thinking of picking him up for EMG cover and skipping Tago. 20k short of Russ to him though, so considering downgrading Uto for someone. Hmmm

Wonder if it makes more sense just to get Tago?

Not having enough halves is not the problem, I've got Sexton, Burton, Hynes, Schneider, Ilias, and Amone.
I have Schneider OUT, Vailea OUT, Walters likely benched... Ilias and Amone are playing for spot 17.
I do have the luxury of the wretched villainous loop

Pretty sure I'll be visiting the hive of scum and villainy later this week. Think I've got something very nice, very evil setup. Just not sure it's the optimal use of the dark arts.

Might do. Just hard to find a downgrade I like for Uto. Might hold off and play Ilias again

Who do we think gets the wing spot at the Storm vacated by Jennings?

I think Jaxon Paulo is a good DPP option for cover

Could be but just be aware if he keeps up not passing to his winger and not offering much in attack he could be moved back to wing around round 5. If we keep losing next 3 weeks or so changes will happen. At some point I’d say Tass comes in.

I’d be surprised if it wasn’t Meaney

Meaney my guess

I'd love to able to afford to do this.

Which leaves me having to play one of Ilias and Amone who both face top 4 teams

A lot will be in a similar position. I have to play 1 of Ilias/Coates/Berry (barring any WFB or HLF trade ins)

Ilias plays early so setting up some sort of loop should be achievable

For me it's Lolo to Haas just to avoid more Payne

Did you have funds saved? or are you downgrading someone to fit him in

He got a TA for a try to his winger.

Nice to see you have confidence that Ilias can score 31

I've had a chat to him. Slow and steady improvement. Knocking out 50's by round 10.

Ahhh yes, sorry forgot about Meaney

Overall I’m not convinced he’s a centre.

Just not sure it's the best way to spend the coin.

I really miss the 2 o’clock team lists from the Warriors

Notes for the Aardvarks after a less than ideal start

- Ilias : was a bit meh but is worth SFA and, at this stage, a regular green dot so he can stay put. Not spending any bank to upgrade him to someone just as questionable.
- Amone : (see ilias)
- Smith : was comical but...if he plays he stays
- Russell : fuck!!!! Lets see what TLT shakes out
- Lolo : sorely tempted to rage trade but unless a super duper downgrade which allows a bigger bank appears he can stay on mins watch for a week or so
- Mahoney : FFS surely that can't happen twice in a row.....can it???
- Haas : I swapped him out for Mahoney because I got the heebee jeebees about Clark....I am an idiot


Edit : The one thing in my favour is that I am addicted to cover so can deal with the outs without trading

Pretty sure they're 2 o'clock still. Here in Qld at least.
