NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 72 - CTR trouble

More than likely will need to use last trade, short list of trade ins Klemmer , Ofa ,Tapine ,Lane and SOS any others to add ???

Just the two whole season players for me:
Beans & Lolo
It's weird as Lolo was one I started with that I was certain I would want to move on at some point, and pretty much wanted to sell him most of the year

Haas & Burton the only two started with, sold, then back in - one smart, one stupid.

By comparison, last year I performed better and had 4 full season plus a further 3 started, sold & returned  - two smart, one stupid.

How can you see the top monthly scores?

Just Papalli for me. Proved to be great value all year round.

I did OK this season I suppose and if I have a very good week next week, I still might make the Top 5,000. The one player that really did my team in was Kurt Mann. I had brought in Taylon May in his first week (Round 3) (before he had scored a point) but then a certain cetacean (mot mentioning any names) convinced me that Kurt Mann was gonna kill it. I believed and and then proceeded to drop at least 10,000 spots really quickly, The sad thing was I also kept Dylan Walker as a result to and did not lose him until round 14.

You live, you learn. In hindsight my season was over by Round 3

Rankings and change all months to August 

Assuming you’re the same Precursor you’re 4th, 27 behind leader

In the rankings section mate.

Damn, you’re in front of me. Good luck this week. Fingers crossed we both make the top 3 for the month.

Actually the person in one for the month is in the FOG too.

Grant, Hynes, DCE, Haas for my all season group. And would have been Aitken but stumbled last hurdle.

Thanks gents, that was simple. I feel stupid for asking now haha

Yeah that’s me. Damn I knew I was having a good month but not 4th good. Is there a reward for 1st in the month? I seem to recall Mulvy winning it last month or before

Thanks mate, same to you. No trades left for me so sweating on Cook and Fifita playing but not confident. I imagine most people are out of trades though. You’ve got a very strong team. Month is over before this round starts so does this round still count for the rankings of the month?

^^just checked for you, it’s round 22-25 for the monthly prize

Mulvy got $1000 and 2nd/3rd get $250 NRL ship vouchers. Good luck!

Rough end of the pineapple for ol’ Kurt Mann. He made about $130k in the first 7 rounds, mostly from R3-R7 and then got injured so was a trade out. I had him from the start and whilst his Mr Fix It role was frustrating, his scores varied between acceptable and good I thought.

Kurt Mann was a shining light in my team. Reed Mahoney on the other hand….

Players that have not left my team all year-

Haas
Burton
Teddy
Hynes
Grant

Further to this, two dudes who were in my starting team, left for a short while, but returned to get the band back together for the last few rounds-

D.Fifita
Bird

Hynes and Burton the only ones for me. Explains why I had such a horror start to the season. Got all the picks wrong at the start, will try and learn from that.

Holding firm on Burton and picking up some underpriced guns turned my season around though, it truly is the long game.

Hynes, Aitken, Teddy lasted me the whole hog!

Mentioned it before, but my biggest mistake by a mile was buying Ponga instead of Ted after Ponga's ton. Cost maybe 300-400 points in itself (not checking exact amount as too traumatic), but also a couple of hundred thousand dollars and two trades, as ended up going Ponga to Walsh and ultimately Walsh to Ted about three months late. Those trades/cash could have netted another 100-200 points, eg. let me get rid of Barnett to Ofa when he got injured and avoided playing 16 a couple of weeks ago.

Have still had an ok season despite some other bad moves (TTrbo maybe unlucky, Peoples just dumb) but that one decision was difference between a top 200 and a top 10 year.

Hynes and Lolo my only round one survivors. Oh, and Vailea, who's actually been quite useful as a red dot looper and will maybe score me 20 points this week if there are loads of restings and I'm struggling for a 17. And he scores two tries.

SMH reporting Cook won’t be named, and 13 Panthers being rested.

It names the players and it's all the first teamers, basically. So no May, Tago, SCritta, Edwards, Api, Yeo for fantasy purposes.

Would also expect the Cowboys to rack up a score so Lolo, Robson, Cotter etc could get limited minutes.

Damn, Tago was my ctr back up.. lol. Hopefully Aitken is suiting up for one last run around with the Warriors.

Not surprised with Cook.

Even if guidelines change to 5 days iso on Weds, you’d think it’s not retrospective ie. those positive before Weds still do 7 days

Plus why rush him.

Plus we’re all assuming he’s got COVID but isn’t actually that sick, which is probable but not guaranteed
