NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 43 - Luki Skywalker

WT Winfield wrote:I think I'll use BSmith as my ticket to ride the Horse. Potentially playing injured or a late out worries me more than Preston or Hosking losing some cash. Could trade Smith to Hopgood instead if out, but want to get on Horse for cheaper sooner rather than later if the LK minutes continue.

Not good for my anxiety watching Smith play the last few weeks.

Honestly I feel like as long as he plays (and the Chooks have said they expect him to), this is the prime week to have him. The Cowboys defence is awful and Cheese is the kind of guy who'll take advantage of that.

I only traded him back in last week but I don't know what it is part of me deep down wants to trade him to Horse as well.

I’ve been looking at bringing in Tatola for Tino. Won’t be expecting to make money this week but hopefully becomes a good addition over the next month or so.

Also keen on Luki but should probably pump the brakes on the trades

I’m honestly not too worried about trade count

I have 18 after trades this week but if you get to R21 with 2-3 left (15 trades over 10 rounds) you have the run home with 10-11 trades for 7 rounds which is miles more than I’ve ever had to finish the season (with the extra 8 trades)

How many trades will it take to pick up Latrell/Yeo/Fifita/Hynes if you don’t have them is the question

I mean if I really wanted to max trade this week I could probably get Fifita/Tatola/Bula for Preston/Tino/Warbrick which on the surface look like good trades but for some reason I’m not overly keen.

Must have been thinking for too long this week

Not bringing him in this week, but looking forward to seeing how Te Whare goes in first grade

Preston to Moses worth the trade if I have SJ, Ikat and Niko for Rd13

Best Star wars film besides original three is Rogue One

You can only play 2, seems a waste bringing in a 4th half, when you could be spending the cash on another position. If you don't have Hynes, stretch to him instead, one of very few must have players that you need to have in your team to be able to compete.

Yeah I hadn't really looked at opposition. Just can't shake the feeling he's out or has his minutes managed and misses Rd 13 like Preston/Hosking.

I traded him in 2 weeks ago, but was looking injury free again. Last 2 he went down with an arm/elbow injury, then was getting some treatment at halftime last week for something and gone again with a HIA and hospital visit. Feels like it'll be a recurring theme with him and my lack of depth will bite me soon.

Yeah that's fair enough, I wish I'd traded in Horse last week instead of Cheese (I had the money to do it too which sucks).

I like Mofo out of that list. NAS probably has higher upside but he'll have more low games where better teams can shut down his offloads etc on the edge. He seems to cop a lot of injuries too. Mofo playing really big minutes, getting through a lot of work.

Thanks just looked into him and 59 average when 60 min+ prop time which he is getting.

He plays last game of the week so I can hold my trade for any injury and can also see if im winning my match up or not.

My opponent has him to so I can match him if required.

Looks the perfect option.

I have to confess, other than the original three movies (which confusingly are 4-6 in the sequence), I have very hazy memories and have trouble distinguishing which one is which, I also have some doubts that I have actually watched any after the three prequels from the late 90's/early 2000's.


Liked them when I was a kid though



Also kids, don't sell your Origin players until Origin. The reason they are picked for Origin is they are better than everyone else (when picked in position)

I concur, the only exception being selling one (Murray in my case) to get Hynes.

Out of interest I want to do a thumbs up/down poll.

Who has ever been to see a movie at the drive in?
TU - No.
TD - Yes.

Crocodile Dundee when I was a wee lad. I had to hide in the foot well of the back seat to save on entry.

Murray to Fifita?

You have listed a lot of what you havent watched, a lot of which are classics.

What do you watch exactly lol?

I still watch movies, just not a lot of them. My favourite is still Shawshank Redemption.

My favourite 4 movies are Shawshank, A few good men, Anchorman and Old School

Wait and see on Matterson off the bench?

Have been keen on bringing him in.

Agreed and Andor was a beauty of a show too!  Much better than the dumpster fire that was Boba Fett

Probably plays about the same amount of minutes as normal

What’s the go with Kurt Mann? Was originally going to sell crossland but don’t know if I should move alamoti instead?
