NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 47 - Bring Cheese on already

Bad round for me; 776/15C
No Hynes or Fifita today, so like a good one hit wonder, I will drop from 1st last week, to outside the top 20

Still, now I can divert my focus to the big event:

Do you take requests? I've a few players that could do with some of that magic.

Tanah for 3 TA's and 75 points.

I do sadly
The first week of ownership I had a feeling it was a bad trade, and really it's just gone from bad to worse.

Going to need to have a big think about what to do with all the accumulated injuries (and Teddy headache) this week

Did you also trade in Matto? Languishing down in your EMG haha

613/13 so far this week. Need big games from those remaining to get on par. Pretty big ask with the way the round has gone thus far

Unless Manu makes a miraculous recovery he might be back rd 14

I traded Matto back in R7 (pre his Flu absence, there were smarter trades in hindsight - should've just held Hopgood)

I had Ford as starting Mid this week so that I could use Matto as a roving player for trying an elaborate loop of my questionable batch of fullbacks. Unfortunately I fucked that up too with the Roosters lock out.
Still, I take a little consolation from it being right process, poor execution.

Looking tight in our L4 h2h @mulvy

Good luck today!

Anyone care to speculate who replaces Tino & Fifi during origin ?

Only round 19.
Looking for increased minutes and role for mofo in that round and the rounds after each origin match.
Haas looking like the front runner of the cows, but look to be better cows available.

his score will come in for Ford obvs.

673/12

Dropped bulk ranks this weekend despite generally good scores, so assume I've got more to play today than most?

Hynes (c), Boyd, Fitzgibbon, Miller and AKP to come.

Made the wrong choice of 300k shitto hooker (Woolford instead of Hodgson) and will be sweating on Manu's fitness, but otherwise happy so far.

That would be a nice addition to my round, just as long as the Titans don’t put in a repeat performance of last years trip to Newcastle. Worst game I’ve witnessed. The person who was sat next to me, until she constantly stood and applauded, may tell you differently.

I’d imagine you could get close to 1000 and make back those ranks and then some.

Lots more players to come than most.

Players Remaining Percent
0 0.5%
1 8.5%
2 31.3%
3 34.0%
4 19.7%
5 4.8%
6 1.1%

7 including captain Hynes for me today + looping in 60 from Billy that isn't included in my score yet.

At the end of Friday I was 60 above par, now I'm 60 below par lol

Not owning JDB/Bird is a killer

Will need a 50 from each of Miller and Crossland today

Luki & VTW on next round shopping list

Ofc, was just curious if he went double eel this week

I'm playing APK today. I need him to score 5 tries and hit the 50 points. That would be solid

You’re being pessimistic.

Should get about 65 when he gets 5 tries
