NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 48 - Dragons when you buy your coach on Wish

I've already started grabbing some tier 2 guys that will hang around. Having Tohu instead of Yeo might mean the difference between Hynes and Munster as HLF2

Thinking out loud here…

Teddy > Garrick … maybe…

Have Drinky Garrick Miller

In R14 go Miller to Edwards

R16 have Drinky Garrick Edwards

Trading Teddy feels so wrong though lol

The results for Round 11 of Fantasy Fantasy are posted and can be found over here


How did your new transfers go?

Shout out to Trent Loiero for plodding his way to $240k in price rises. Waving goodbye to him this week for Luki +cash, but just wanted to say thanks, Trent.

Even though the warriors aren’t playing, it’d have been nice if they would have included some kiwis in all of the hype around indigenous round.

Who would’ve thought you could flip Boyd to Robson and pocket cash lol

No plan to move on from Tedesco? God it's hard not to as an owner.

Probably not this week against St George.  If he flops again, definitely next week.

Actually, nah he probably just sits all year.

Ale, Manu and Hosking to Harrison E, Luki and Matto. Team just looks so much better.

Not entirely sold on Hosking out after one bad run, i flicked HopGod for same only to bring him back (at no cost luckily (bar wasted trade)).

I'm H2H, and my ranking has more digits than a roadtrain hubo so i appreciate the collective wisdom here. If it goes wrong its my fault.

Yeah I might do this next week and squash the idea of Grant to Robson. Wouldn't mind if Cook missed origin and grab him instead though.

I’m inclined to hold one more week then see which of Robson JMK or Cook are the best

Burbo is cheap and useable at CTR but surely Lawton is the one we want to see named on the edge tomorrow?

Gets through a lot of work

Tempted to hold Manu and flick Ford for Luki, regardless of 13.

Other then Nagle which I tune out I haven’t seen any hype?

Tupouinua breakeven now the same as his career average at second row. Roosters have to try something different so he probably gets the starting spot back

Probably got 150-200k in him if big games come at the right time or can hang around all year as 17/18/19 averaging 45

Think I prefer him over Luki if it wasn't for the damn bye rounds

At what point is buying every Rooster who had good prior seasons but hasn’t done anything this year considered a strategy

On the whole this season seems to have shit on the traditional guns of past years so far
Teddy -227k, Cook -235k, Murray -170k

All the chat re: Teddy.

His past few years have been huge. Last year, big year + world cup. He needs a rest. And also, if he wants to extend his career, needs to look to move to 6 in the next year or two. But right now, he's overcooked.

I dont know what people see in tedescos game that suggest he should move to six

I don’t think he’s really a 6. The work he does off the ball is just as important as anything he does with it.
Edit. What the fish said.

Leilua could be named in the cowboys squad, it seems if his matter is cleared Thursday he is free to play. Even if it were a bench cameo

I dunno with Teddy. Planned to trade him out before Origin. Could move that up a week, but his BE is still a gettable mid-50s vs the Dragons, plus I'm not sure who to trade him to between Drinkwater and Garrick. You'd still pick Teddy to score more points than either of them in any given game. Wait a week and it's possible that Ponga or *whispers* Turbo would be on the menu as bye round options too.
