NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 27 - Cheap fullbacks are gun fullbacks

Saw Trindalls donut and thought oh well 10k will do .

Will probably stay as a 17th man loop this week

Eels have had their hard run. I'd be keeping flat-track Mitch if I was you.

Yeah I’m keeping. Just not sure on the route to Cleary/Hynes or just go for a gun HOK

Gun team mate, you'll be fine. Did you squirrel some cash away?

Got 250k itb, so without losing any guns can either downgrade carty and upgrade Boyd to Hynes (all going well) in Rd 7, or downgrade Carty and Warbrick/AKP to base price players to allow for Trindall to Hynes. Or just ditch Mitchell and only need a small amount of extra cash from elsewhere to get Hynes.

Esme's army? Are you in the fanatics overall group?

Is that the NRL Fantasy Fanatics Open League?

Business as usual then?

Pretty much

Question with a question. Thought as much...

Sorry no, don’t know what Esme army is. If that’s a team it’s not me.
I also don’t know what league you’re talking about, was trying to get clarity so I can answer your question.

People other than me have asked, and you've avoided every time.

1. What's your team name?! Surely that's an easy one!

2. You know fully well what the FOG is, it's getting old. Fanatics overall group.

3. How many alts are you? (Let me guess, you're gonna ask what's an alt?)

Nobody has ever asked me for my team name… ever. check the entire history.
This is the first time FOG has been explained…to me, I asked the question last week, didn’t get an answer…. Check the entire history.
I’m me, I know what an alt is now and have no other accounts or personalities here.
My team name is Weppo’s Winners.
I’m ranked 56th currently.
Happy?

Great rank - on ya

935 takes me from rank 77 to 599. Traded miller and hands in. Wouldn't have had a hooker or wfb3 so can't feel bad about those trades tbh.
Will downgrade a cow next week and get ready to bring in Hynes in round 7!

If it is 3 trades for Round 7 thatd be perfect timing with Hynes coming off the bye!

I'm ok with that,not having Murray, Cook or Grant has hurt and $2mill of Eels players stinking it up on Thursday!

Dang. Same score but a much further downfall. 1600 spots or thereabouts.

On this Hynes thingy I’m not so sure you need both Cleary and Hynes if you have SJ as well. It is likely to throw your team balance out. Someone in discord has Cleary and Hynes and still only scored 944 this week as their depth is shit in their 14-21 so it’s a fine balance.

It’s what I’m weighing up is do I go the Hynes route on top of me having Cleary and SJ already or do I focus on bringing in guys like J. Brailey, Matto, Teddy and maybe Cheese upcoming etc…… and play it that way.


For the round I went well I’m happy I scored 1043, started the round rank 13k and am now into 5.3k rank. Overall score is 4333. After round 2 disaster I was out to a 26k rank so I’ve been chipping away. My guys that let me down a little and went under 40 were E. Katoa, Lemuelu, Carty and Warbrick. Apart from that I can’t complain. I had Alamoti in my emgs as well as I played Lemuelu over him.

Great to see so many doing well as well overall been a pretty good weekend for the forum. And to those who did not go so well I’m sure you’ll come flying back up the ranks the next couple of weeks. Between my 5.3k rank and top 1.5k it’s only about a 90 points difference so it’s still really tight.

Going to bring in marzhew this week for a pod and 2 recent scores primed for him to make some money

Great score rabs! Puts into perspective last weeks panic

And good insight about the halves connundrum

I’m bringing in Hynes in 7 and will run sj and Hynes

Just realised even though I've slipped a few hundred ranks I'm almost exactly 200 off the leader.
Don't think I've ever been this close.

Loving this nrl season so far. Good quality of footy, doing well on here and in both my drafts + punting wise.

Also our work schedule at wicky is 11am starts so hoping they open it up for trades around lunch time!

Feel like I should balance out some of the excellence on the forum with my current ranking.

924 for the week, overall rank of 26,072

A shame not to start well, but a long season to go.

Updates are all in on desktop, not sure about app.

Presumably some final fiddling from Thursday night’s game to come…

785 round score.
Rank 3950 down to 20435.
You can only complain if you've done worse than this.
