NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 37 - I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Nicho Hynes. Fantasy Gun.

At least Fifita can't be blamed when Titans have already been blown out by the time he comes on

With additional TB points however minimal and the Fog mate, Titans woeful and boring this year

Today or next week? Agree that Holbrook is a dunce

Looking at Ipap and Hastings for King and Fifita

Im playing Sexton another week. I am stupid

But why? Serious question …

Probably get proved wrong and it’s obviously a tactic to fire him up but less minutes on the park this year is that Titans side looks a recipe for disaster

MTB holding Sexton makes me think maybe I should hold Shaun Johnson. Surely they both come good and rediscover their 40+ in pure base....

Fifita BE is only 53. Defo not selling him this week, and barring injury, not selling all year tbh

An over-the-hill Kevin Proctor to take the sting out of Kikau and the Penrith left edge, yeah right.

I thought Dave Taylor might make it $3, but completely blanked he played for Souths in between.

Anyway, that led me down a Wiki rabbit-hole where I learned FuiFui MoiMoi is still playing footy at age 40, in the UK third tier. Dolphins should sign him.

Think I’m settled on Nanai to Teddy and Leo to Tass, feel like I can justify being dumb if I trade out a bloke that will sit around his current price doing nothing for the guy I want that, at worse, sits around his current price doing nothing..

I look a fifita and think, how would Craig Bellamy handle you ?

Fuck 50K short of Ipap and Hastings! That would of settled me.

TPJ or Lolo worth it?

JKing and Fifita for Hastings and above + 140k bank?

Serious answer:-

I think hes a better player than hes shown lately.

Its typical of the way i play to keep faith in players longer than others. It sometimes works.

Brimson back to fb im willing to have one more look. Im also not convinced on any of the trade in options.

Likely disaster in 80 mins time haha

Its fantasy and who cares answer:-
"YOLO"

He averaged 70 starting second row.

Probably play him in the middle and pretend he's a vaccinated, overpaid version of NAS.

Kaufusi out; Fifi in and hello nailed on champions

Holbrook just said they want an impact 60 rather than a hard working 80 from Fifita
Based the decision saying it’s around the interchanges and they have struggled to take him off in the middle minutes
Mentioned similar to last year when he came off the bench

He’d be a different player. My dad coached and knew Tom Learoyd-Lahrs really well. Tom played a small stint for Melbourne at the end of his career and told my dad that he was disappointed he didn’t go to Melbourne earlier in his career as he thought he would genuinely have been an (even) better player had he done so. He said that the whole training set-up is just ridiculous and the personal schedules the coaching staff would set for the players (which he was shocked by, even as an elite level player) was why players who had previously been mediocre would improve dramatically in Melbourne.

Yeah I would've mentioned that if he was starting second row.








Point is I don't think the fire sale is called for. He'll likely be starting again next week. But I am a non-owner, so easier for me to say this when I don't get frustrated by his scores.
