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

Yeah, so Jurbo, Haas and Paulo are three of the props. Who's the other one? The Saifitis are ordinary, JDB is a plodder and would be a media disaster. I'd pick Tatola or Finucane as natural no-nonsense SoO forwards, but no doubt Freddie will think "different".

Yeo and Murray as MIDs, Matterson was also named in game 1 last year, and is playing just as well this year.

Looks like he was unavailable leading into game 2 last season, as Matto missed rounds 16,17 and 18.

Really appreciate the updates re Burbos real price and what he'd need to hit to go up in price. Also the fact that there's a round 14 bye makes him a definite wait and see - I might not even bring him in next week as I've got bird and null in my centres.

Got Hedwards and Luki as trade ins atm. Going to look a bit deeper to see if it's worth a 3rd trade.

Only just looked but think it’s 2-trade week for me

1. Hosking to someone (probs Luki). Hindsight I should’ve held Preston and sold Hosking a few weeks back, but oh well

2. Teddy out but would need to be for a WFB - ideally would wait until next week, but I don’t know if ideally exists here
OR 
Granville to someone
OR
Boyd to nearly anyone

The 2 options I don’t pick will happen R13, as well as Carrigan to Harris, with a spare 4th trade for carnage~!

Just did some rough calcs, Burbo's true price is around $200k and his BE is probably around 25, maybe a touch higher.

So he'd need to score low 40s to get to $221k next week, hmmm

The BE of 25 is to make it to $221k

Granville is a hold unless you have another R13 HOK, Boyd is the best performing HOK that doesn't play Origin.

If trading either out, you will make a better, more informed decision next week than this week.

Every time I look to sell Preston, I see his match ups and hold... here's to another hold!

Need a WFB since Manu is injured (for my H2H team), my CTR's are fine but really didn't need Manu to get hurt as this year the WFB options are fairly grim. I've currently got my eye on Drinky but his scores aren't great without tries (As most of the WFB options). Can afford anyone below Manu's price but not sure I want to fork it out for guys who may get outscored by a guy like Drinkwater.

Need some advice on who to pickup in this putrid position, already have Ted and Bula. Maybe Miller?

I think there's a half-chance Tatola gets Origin? It hasn't been talked about here but seen him in a couple of pundits' teams, and if people are discussing JDB - who should be nowhere near - then Tatola would genuinely be a better real life, as opposed to fantasy, option for them. NSW pretty short on props.

I feel like the thing that is not in favour of Tatola is he hasn’t played much footy this year.

Taking origin out of it (I don’t think Tatola makes it) would you get Tatola or Luki?

Luki for quicker cash gen,. But think about which position you need most, what you'd be doing with the extra bank from going Tatola, who has the better byes for you etc

Tough decision this week. Hosking and Teddy are my potential trade-out candidates. Coming up with wait and see on most of my trade-ins though.

Harris and Hopgood to round out my MID and EDG are my ideal targets. Probably missed the boat on Luki, so could play Bird at EDG and open up some other options if Hop makes origin.

Tapine probably a good trade-in this week, but prefer Harris personally.

A HK and HLF also on the menu. Robson, Liddle or possibly Cook. Moses, DBrown or bite the bullet on SJ.. Happy to leave both decisions until next week and see how far the funds will stretch.

This HEdwards bloke though.. Will still be affordable Rd 14, but looks set for a healthy price rise this week. Might cost me a Rd 13 player though unless someone else puts their hand up for a trade-out this weekend.

Nsw squad?

Paulo Haas
Murray Martin
Yeo
Hynes/Bird/Api/Cook Finucane Saifiti Young

Can't see JDB getting close to the 17.

Paulo Cook Haas
Martin Young/Haumole/Friz
Yeo

Api/Hynes Jurbo Murray ?

If Martin isn't fit then Murray on the edge and another middle on the bench.

Agree JDB should be nowhere near. Bird shouldn't either.

JMK playing better than Robson, but if I didn't have a R13 HOK already, I would be looking at Liddle.

On Teddy is it worth holding one more week or jump off now?

All the WFB's are pretty shit, I have no intention of jumping off Teddy with his ceiling.

All it takes is the Roosters to find some form for him to up his fantasy scores, their attack is in shambles at the moment so it's hard for Teddy to get anything going at all

What if you don't need a WFB for him? In my case I'm selling him to Billy Smith (I just like him and should have had the guts to get on last week) and have Miller, Walsh and Bula as my three WFBs plus Manu to slot back in there in R14 (and planning to trade Miller to Edwards in R14)

Realistically, the top 2 WFBs this year are Edwards and Latrell and there's daylight after them (unless Papenhuyzen comes back and gets back to his best)

Manu at least as good as WFB as the other 2.

Granville has pretty much peaked?
