NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 34 - Super Saturday

Liverpool_Bulldog wrote:Host scares me. I’ve bought in Niko and Sele recently who were supposed to in a perfect world average around that 36-40 mark and neither have got close.

Can’t really afford another 25-30 player clogging up the EMG spots.

But decent minutes in RD13 will probably push me to get him unfortunately

Will mention it again, will he/other cash cows be in your 13 in R13, better options below that may have/buy and will be in your 13. They will be playing R13 so can earn cash but you’re probably unlikely to play them in R13

Crossland/Katoa - SJ, Moses, Brown
Host - Frizell, Hopgood, Ford
Sele/Couchman - Tohu, Tapine, Matterson, Ford

Of the cashout or cow options I think an EDG or WFB/CTR would probably be the positions most likely to actually get in scoring 13 for the bye

Why is Fifita the flavour of the week all of a sudden?

Have had him since Round 0, has been somewhat consistent scoring just not sure why all the love all of a sudden?

Guns underperformed so they're moving to another gun who is under the radar-ish because "lol its DFifi he's shit bla bla".

The thing is he is probably in the 17 for QLD. He's having maybe his best season as a genuine footy player. He's not scoring tries but he's really involved in everything else - great to see honestly.

Trying to predict the breakout attacking stats game that he’s renowned for

Has upped his base RM + tackles by nearly 10 on last year

At the moment I’ll only have Ford eligible to play at EDG in Round 13. So if Host came in this week and manages to stick around he will be in with Ford. Of course it’s quite possible I’ll bring in a Young/JDB and then there would be no room for Host

Stone at 314K looks good if he's got the starting role full time.

Yeah but why this week? Why not last week, week before etc?

Obviously wait til TLT but risk with Crossland aye

Ponga returning, how does Gamble/Mann rotation work. AOB will have them all in the 17

Not sure who to dump Carty to. Not huge on Cheese

Lots of edges are close to peaking (Carty, Loiero, EKatoa) and team values are higher every week, ergo more cash to splash and Fifita's one of the cheaper 60 average guys.

I blew my wad on Hynes though, so not on my radar.

Don’t know, Hosking was the EDG pick up for couple of weeks ago and people stacked with EDGs but some coming to possible/likely sell (Carty, Loiero/Katoa)

I’m personally looking at Moses as my ideal target but probably going to have to wait until next week and will just straight swap Carty for similar price player around 600k (TPJ, McInnes etc)

I may go Cheese but not really interested either.

Could just go McInnes and see what happens but I'm looking at Host, Stone or Ale to bank some coin.

Imo McInnes is a trap. If he can’t get 60 minutes with both Rudolf and Finucane out, then his big minute days are over

Just putting it out there… Critta 480k

L3 average 52 against Rabbitohs, then Tigers in R9

I'd wait until TLT to dump Carty. I am fully expecting him to be named starting on the EDG and to start there. Matterson to shift to MID early HOPGOOD to play 60 -70 minutes Carty to play 80.08135 minutes after they delay the siren ever so briefly. Two benchies play bugger all minutes. One of the bench spots will be filled by Hands in any case so there will be more minutes to share around in the other three bench spots in any case. I for one am keeping Carty AND Hopegood.

Not the worst shout for a POD

You could be right. Last week indeed was an anomaly possibly with Hodgson a late out.

Just thinking aloud but at the end of the day, upgrades will have to be made somewhere but would make it easy if he starts again.

Seems a bit rich paying over 600 for a ctr in penisini
