2016 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 12

Were base price players $128k last year. Appears as though they haven't updated their system from last year eg I think all players will only drop to $128k

Surely if that was not the case Greg Eden (scored 3) would have dropped below $128k vs say JFH (scoring 12). Fanhub are just useless, they haven't intended for rookies to drop below basement price

Get a proper look at other teams now, get scouting

Yes, Eden would have dropped well below $128k if he was allowed to.

And for purposes of price rises he has. 
He's probably around $123k right now, so before he gets any price rise you can see as an owner, he first has to get back up to $128k. This should be reflected in his BE (which I haven't checked yet)

Ditto also more important from my point of view that Nat Green gets another crack this weekend - nice win BTW GM.

That your men mate the Rusty Rebels?

decent start all round by our league

661. Sickening. On the plus side, I won't be able to panic trade underperforming guns like Bunt thanks to the injury toll I have...

Can someone talk me through how i sell Cherrington, move Nikorima from halves to hooker then buy in Walker?

I know you can do it but I cant figure out how. I thought it might be in 'Advanced Trades' but I get a 'THIS PAGE IS LOCKED UNTIL SEASON STARTS!' message when i click on that.

log out log back in mate, it can be accessed I tried it earlier and through advanced trades is the correct way to do it

Storm v Dragons changes:

Comments about base price being $128k makes a lot of sense - well spotted.

Didn't see the sharks game - thoughts on Jack Bird? His DPP switch option with littlejohn would be handy

What were Wighton's stats like at 5/8th, does anyone remember?

Legend, thank you.

another option if people are moving Lichaa or Seg is to move JNiko and bring in Benny Hunt....

Really want to bring Carter in but don't know who to get rid of.
Smith Peats
Woods Grant Evans Leulia
Sturgess Cartwright Taupau LAM whitehead Saifiti
DCE Hastings Taylor Niko
Aubusson Green Henry Auvaa
Gordon Barba Feeney Mitchell Gutherson

i'm in a nearly identical situation with:
Surgess Grant Evans Leulaui
Merrin Taupau JDB Whitehead Moeroa Saifiti

moeroa is probably the one you'd chop but a first round 40 where he did SFA in the game, its hard to justify not sticking with him. Evans didn't score terribly either (and will should improve), and Grant played 60 mins in terrible heat and a stupid/crazy game. if he keeps getting those mins the scores will come.

any advice?

Think I'll ditch LAM for Rochow considering he didn't get many minutes at all.
Only other option is to get Randall instead of Peats and then bring Carter for someone like Leuluai

Edit: might actually hold Lichaa another week and instead get both Rochow/Carter for LAM/Leuluai

I'm leaning towards Evans

Seggy > Walker via Niko
Leuluai > Carter

Problem is my team bar the backs is

Niko, Lichaa
Woods, LAM, Evans, Grant
Surgess (c), Guerra, Cartwright, Whithead, Carter, Saifiti
DCE, Hastings, Walker, Taylor

Thoughts lads?

me too. is it the right move? is evans to carter worth the trade? i dont like to throw away a player i had the faith to start with, after just one week.

I'd keep Evans. He played well and scored 38 in a game with plenty of tries/stoppages
