NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 49 - Origin is nearly here, it's about time some QLD players got suspended

He was pretty much just a voice for the team out there. Very minimal general play kicks, no goal kicking, no real physical involvement at all honestly. His foot must be cooked. If he comes out sluggish R14 then he's a sell.

He wasn't even in the top 10 WFBs for average at the time I sold, his average was 40.2 or something like that.

He had only got past 50 once, and most of his games had attacking stats (a 43 with a try/LB, a 48 with two TAs, an LB and LBA etc.)

Literally every stat except run metres was way down and he looked cooked as fuck.

Then I trade him and suddenly he starts breaking tackles and scoring multiple tries, as if he specifically chose that week to punish me.

Fucking tell me you wouldn't be extremely pissed off if that happened.

Beth it’s ok to be wrong you made a mistake. I did warn you as you know as soon as you sold him he’d come good he was coming off a knee surgery and we needed to persist. Also the Roosters have a tendency to start slow and then come good. WFB’s go through some ups and downs and we have seen it from Teddy before but every single time he comes good.

I made some mistakes like the other week I C Grant over Cleary, I sold Nanai too early, I bought Tass my Cini of last year I bought Edrick dud buy. I can see I made a bad few calls there I have to cop it on the chin and I have.

Matt trading out Hynes and then you Teddy both were disastrous moves.

Still you’re going well a strong few weeks well done on your Munster pick you got that right.

And thanks I appreciated your apology the other day we are all good I don’t hold grudges I know you’re passionate about fantasy like me. Sometimes it gets heated I do too it’s ok there is bigger things to worry about in life.

Great idea, however, I’m not sure we need to vote.
It’s really a no brainer.
If you Beth what I’m saying.

100% wrong.
It’s because it’s always someone else’s fault.
Just own it.

I'm not saying it's someone else's fault that Teddy came good as soon as I sold him, what I'm sick of is constantly being harassed for it when everyone's had bad trades every now and then.

I can obviously see it was a bad trade now, but at the time, with the information I had, it made sense.

You can quite frankly shut the fuck up and stop digging up stuff from pages back just to fling shit at me.

well yeah obviously selling him was a bad move with the benefit of hindsight, but at the time with the information I had, I don't think it was that bad, and I at least got Talakai's 100 and his cash gain out of it, and then Matto's good score last week after I traded Talakai. If anything, I've probably done the best out of anyone who sold Teddy, though still obviously not ideal.

You've known me long enough to know that my style of playing fantasy is very aggressive, and I've always been one to attack opportunities rather than play safe. I sold Fifita after round 2 this year when the whole forum was saying to keep him and that worked, so I figured I could do it again.

Got Ramsey, Kiraz, MKing, Ipap, Matto and Elliott left to play so some decent firepower, and I'm hoping Ramsey can repay the faith I've shown in him by going early on him, but as long as he fundamentally looks like a decent player I can cop a middling score from him considering how cheap he is

Every week you post your score and I think how well you’re scoring.
However, multiple times every week, you post and complain how poorly you’re going.

In the words of the inimitable Eric Idle.

Teddy was on 85 with more than 20 minutes left, it was looking like he was going to get 120+ which would have been catastrophic to say the least. The fact that he ended on 81 (just checked updates) is nothing short of miraculous, and at the end of the day I'm pretty happy with how my team's gone this week.

My strategy this year (especially after selling Teddy) has been to go all in on top end PODs (Munster, Cook, Cotter, and Matto at the moment), and in weeks they all fire, I do pretty well. This week Cotter, Cook and Munster all got over 70, so even with Teddy's big score I'm doing fine this week, but they can't all go well every week, so I always hope to gain as much as I can while my PODs are fit and firing. That's doubly true this week since I have very few players for round 13 so I naturally want to cash in as much as I can this week while I've still got all my guns playing.

Great advice Beth. Maybe this is something you can take on board.

But you then assume that I would listen to you, when I don't respect you either.

You can't just fling shit at me all night and say that you would like to punch me and then expect me to take advice from you.

I thought this forum was against wishing violence.

When have I said that I would like to punch you?
If 100 people say that you’re a dickhead, and you say that those 100 people are a dickhead, chances are that you’re the dickhead. Perhaps you should read over the last thread.

I’m also not petty enough to downvote your posts.

I don't think most people on here are dickheads, I just think that of you.

Great scores from all my players. Only downside is playing Ilias over Walker, but I have @Lchy to blame for that

Serves you right for listening to that idiot!
