NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 50 - F*** you Pangai

Tear it all apart I say

My thoughts exactly. 
LB, go big mate.

Why can't you do 4 trades at once? Makes you do them 2 at a time. Annoying when you're trying to see what you can do.

Maroon-like just means they have players that lack the same talent level but put in

I’d rather pick guys that have both talent and put in, like Friz

When we had an enforcer like Gal, we still lost a lot. You don’t win by getting in peoples faces. These guys are professional athletes. You win by being a better footy team which usually means having the best players.

If you’re not picking the best players for rep footy, what’s the point? I mean I get club combos but picking players because they are “made for Origin” is just mythology.

You're probably correct.
But, Sims has always stepped up in SOO. Talented players, who put in at NRL level, can often be overawed by the whole beats which SOO is. 
Hence my hope (from a NSW perspective) that Billy plays Nanai. The kid's a gun, but young and untried. 
If he runs out in Sydney, Cleary and co. will aim straight at him. 
This is why Qld are running with BHunt as Hooker, he's proven himself capable of dealing with that level of pressure and game speed.

Anyone elses C and VC still locked?

Mine works fine on desktop and the iPhone app

Will see what happens with Lolo and TPJ injury wise but chances are one of them becomes Fifita I think, although if Fifita is still on the bench im not so sure.

Other than that I'd like to trade Ilias to a rd13 option but there doesn't appear to be any I actually want under 600k. So probably ditch him next week looking ahead to rd17 options.

Thanks mate. Im on desktop, tried all the usual things. Foina obviously trolling me with the TPJ cash loss and now this. Might just shut it right down or just delete team, not sure which would be better?

RFM starting this week at 373K would be very handy.

Early plan is Hastings + SCrit + Ilias to Angus + Savage + Fifita/Keary

Leaning Keary, as I prefer a HLF, and gives me a bit more ITB to play with going into 14, where I expect I will make a bunch of trades - getting rid of the likes of Fermor/Starling/Jazz/Ming

Oh yeah forgot about him. That would be ideal

Actually, RFM is cheaper than Kris, and has prior fantasy form.

EDIT: means I'd have 4 Dogs playing the Panthers (minus 7 players).

Does anyone recall how rolling lockout works for teams that have the bye? If their team isn't playing the bye, does it does lock out at the start of the final game of the weekend?

See what happens with Lolo and Schneider before I decide who to sell, but tentative thoughts:

Ilias > Savage
Penis > Manu
Hunt > Burton
Schneider > Tohu

Or

Penis > Burton
Lolo > Tohu
Hunt > Difi
Ilias > Savage

Butcher still a buy if you haven't already got him? Think I might have left it a week too late.

I think he might play lock this week. Then could be interchange again R14. My sense is the risk is not worth it anymore

He was on my definite buy-in for Rd.13 list, until the Mighty Angus was dumped from SOO.
I just can't justify Butcher over Angus, Tohu or Aitken. 
One that will go through to the keeper.

Shenanigans, reckon Critta and Wighton will swap

Super annoying that I have to manually calculate my war chest because I can’t remove 4 players at once
