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

What are Lolo owners thinking?

Ideally want to give him another week, but he's the only obvious downgrade option if I want to free up some cash to trade Vailea/Russell.

Running with this (assuming Schnieder, Russell, Vailea all out):

Mahoney
Haas Lolo Bullemore
DiFi Nanai
Hunt Mann
Tago Penisini
Pap Hynes SCrichton

Randall Tuilagi MKing Coates

Illias Schneider Vailea Russel

Might be worth just holding until a more obvious cow comes along?

This.  I've seen quoted heaps how he averages better on the edge,  but a lot of these games started on the edge,  then moved to middle after 20 minutes.  He's scores at well in both positions.

I had Curran all last season. He was generally playing on the EDG, with a high work rate, not actually moving into the MID rotation. More like what we see from Crichton, not the Arrow or Gilbert role.

Putting aside they are available in different positions, so not really comparing apples with apples. I just feel he is slightly cheaper, and is surely up the pecking order so a McInnes return will see a shuffling of minutes, I just don’t see it affecting finucanes.

Not a super analytical response I know

Ahhh all good

BSmith will play this week right, it's basically said he didn't get concussed. Is everyone assuming he is dropped ?

Sorry I should have added, I feel like finucanes score on weekend was rock solid. Wilton inflated by a try. So potentially a better scorer long term.

Well he was pretty crap anyway, Gagai was eating him alive

If he is named he is staying in my side. Too cheap to trade out and could just as easily next weeks Tago after he busts out a 53.

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

Hard to see the arrival of a 60-80 minute lock, not impacting the minutes of a 60 minute lock/prop, unless they become the equivalent of Carrigan and Haas. Sharks MID depth is far better than previous Broncos teams where they both played huge minutes though.

Yeh but it doesn't seem in the Roosters nature to drop a guy like him on one performance. No stats for that comment, just a feel.

Challenging week with Schneider sidelined, and Walters likely at 14.
Which leaves me having to play one of Ilias and Amone who both face top 4 teams

Kind of glad I have Fornicate 100 and Kurt Angle in my halves.

To be fair Gagai had activated his 'Origin mode' in rnd1 and most people were keen on Billy as he was a Rooster Centre. It was the thought of the potential attacking points which lured many and it may still come if Rooster have a better offensive game next time.

His score was at his BE, despite low minutes and no strong runs.

Having said that, he may be the one I trade out this week to start bringing in the targets I have in mind.

Mann covers Hlf and MID if you don't have him,  I eyeing him off,  as well as Sexton and Clifford.

Already have Mann, both Kings, Tago and Nanai.

Billy is the CTR version of Coates, needs a try per game to average 36. The better CTRs average 36 without a try.

To trade Lolo after 1 game and it looking like his base is trading for the sake of it.

Hynes DPP looking like it'll be real useful this week

Giving Coates a run out by the looks of it hoping he can score some base stats to go along with his usual try

No Burton, Hynes or Mann?

Yeah he was never going to be a keeper. Just like Coates, make money and sell.
