NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 28 - Eels in crisis, no minutes for gun cheapies

Are those on here with HSS just using him to loop

If he is emg does that mean he could possibly be activated after a couple of hias ? that's a scary loop if that's the case.

Doueihi back in the halves and should get WFB dual, could be an interesting option again at some point.

RFM HIA back next week

Pretty sure I'll be trading out Hopgood. Minutes outlook is only going to get worse when Paulo is back next week.

If he is getting 50 mins or so I can't see him scoring to his price at $730k, and could end up awkward non-keeper territory. Think this is likely selling at peak.

Carty can stick around at least a week with a 30 BE and may well still play 80.

Early thoughts are something like Hopgood & Uto to Tohu and iKatoa.

HSS can stick around for now being more useful than he was last week.

And then Carty to Teddy next week

is that point going to be when he gets dropped from the halves again after a few more losses?

Trindall and Hopgood to Murray and Katoa seems yum

Anyone under 300k is a throw at the stumps

I feel like he's not going to be given WFB dual, needed to play one more week at FB. Who knows though.

Yeah keen on Murray too but Tohu appeals for bye purposes. Hopgood to Murray for just an extra $119k is pretty nice though

I did Carrigan to Hosking last week, which short term worked out. But with this Hopgood news obviously would like to wind that back.

So might just swap Hopgood to Carrigan and move on.

Carty can hang around as I'm 100k from turning him into Hynes.

Sean Russell has never started a game at centre, in NRL or NSW Cup

What are his scoring expectations? Other than continuing his record of scoring a million tries every time he plays

Well he is playing the Tigers this week so likely he will banner up

We’re assuming Simmonsen replaces Dunster after his suspension and Russell stays?

Think he is an easy sell coming off the bench

Got my eye on an elite centre that wears lime green, or trading BSmith back in so I can move on Kenny soon

Can't believe he's $319k given he has an average of 22 over the previous two seasons and only managed 1 game last year, they've priced him like it's 2016

Some pretty ambitious DPP expectations given they are notoriously conservative...I hope you are all right!

I am tempted to bring in Cobbo. Has dropped $120k, in this Broncos team it wouldn't be a surprise to see him get a run of 2 and 3 try games like last season.

I have the expectation Hoppy+Carty will score about the same as last week and could both get flicked for Nicho.

Corn on the cobb would be a better buy, but make sure you get unsalted grass-fed butter, for the health benefits.

Oh so DPP is after this round so highly unlikely Russell gets it. If by some miracle he does then can maybe grab him next week should if he looks good

Tough trades this week. Might just sit pat. Wayde Egan might need to be moved on soon, to sell at the peak (but who knows maybe he starts scoring two tries every week) and because I have 4 warriors which is going to be 2 too many come round 12. Him to Brailey is an easy 90K.

Any chance Teddy is out more than just this week? He's TBC on the NRL casualty ward. If so could be veeery tempted by a certain JoeyM, 70BE be damned. Maybe he's still just a round 14 pickup though.

Think it would be good if he played 13 but otherwise just a short term punt and you need to move him on again. Feels like not enough upside.
