NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 27 - Cheap fullbacks are gun fullbacks

Hmm Hopgood bench is an interesting and unexpected dilemma.

Never getting Carty might be my biggest blunder in fantasy history. 230k handicap for no reason other than stubbornness

BMM & HSS ---> AKP & JxF (Jackson Ford does not have a middle name )

Hopgood on for Greig at 20min mark seems likely. Just whether he's sees the game out or not.

Jarrod Croker named. That's one of MS's trades for the week sorted

well Bostock was a big fail.

ITT (decent)
Katoa (happy with)
Talau (handy red dot)
Bostock

got 120k in the bank (Cleary funds). Worth going Bostock up to Niko Dunster or AKP?

Could even dump Talau and Bostock

Carty party continues!

Cheapie alert in the Eels back line - Russell 319k and Dunster 250k

Hopgood might only get Doorey mins

with a BE in the 50s, what do you do with Hopgood

Entirely possible he'll still get good minutes, but he's already priced at over 50 points a game. Do you take the money and run

Given I was planning on cutting Carrigan this week, I might pivot to Hopgood out

AKP or Kodi?

I don't think either of them is a trade out yet

Any chance Hopgood comes on and moves Matto to the edge I wonder and Carty gets the lower minutes. Hard situation to read.

Probably give it this week to see his role. If no good anymore then he’s the ticket to Nicho

Hosking's the only one in either Penrith or Manly starting 13 who is smiling. = Gun

I feel like with Lane back either of Carty and Hopgood is a sell this week. Hopgood will probably come on for Greig and when Matterson comes back on it will be for either Carty in the back row or Hopgood in the middle. So either Carty plays 50/60 or Hopgood plays 40/50

I think Carty goes off at about the 20-25 minute mark, and maybe returns for a ten minute cameo depending upon how much the Eels have the game in control.

Looks like we get one week to have a look. I can get Carty and Hopgood out of the 17 for the week in case things go pear shaped and they both score 30 points. 

Then make a decision next week?

Guess I’m just doing HSS to Niko this week, 286k in the Hynes fund for next week

I've seen a few mentions of 3 trades in Rd 7, but can't see anything in the rules. Is there something I'm missing?
