NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 53 - Back to the footy!

BCT05 wrote:It seems setup perfectly for Ponga to pull out his best stuff on Sunday back at fullback, media to get their headlines about Ponga "proving Billy wrong" or something along those lines, and then Walsh bombs on Wednesday.

So so so so many are getting Ponga I might have to go with the pack. Getting him though means I do have to trade Burbo next week to either Simpkin or Turpin otherwise I’m down Moses, Hopgood, Ponga, Burbo next week and that’s before origin restings.

Hhmmmm it’s a hard one. If he plays origin 2 he probs misses round 17, and if he plays origin 3 he probs misses round 20. So could miss, 14, 16, 17, 19, 20.

Fucking finally! Guess he’s gotta go then, wanted to keep him for 16 but not playing that game makes it an easy desicion.

Who are the best 3 WFB playing this week?

Can I tell you on Sunday night?

Now that everyone got their Matto news, what's the good oil on eKatoa? I know you guys have the oil. Other than that, I'm pretty set for the week, until karma-nage gets me

You not getting on the Ponga train mate?

I feel he’s gonna get 70 this week, I asked my Knights mate and he reckons even if Ponga goes to origin 2 and 3 he thinks he has to back up as O’Brien job is on the line.

This decision or not whether to get Ponga is killing me. I feel like it’s either gonna be a smash out great decision or a massive massive disaster no inbetween such a hard decision!

Eels said expected back r16, so it’s 3 weeks out - 13/14/15

I’m holding

Their statement doesn’t really make sense saying 4 weeks AND r16 return

I've put my first note onto footystatistics.com

Best looking?

Garrick has a pretty good smile on him
DWZ - hard to go past those flowing locks
Struggling with #3, but Alex Johnston looks pretty good diving for the corner.

I think your Knights mates are living in a fantasy land.

Wait what? So along being slow the Eels medics also can’t count? I just found the Eels update and they’re saying 4 weeks with a return date of R16 being set, which is not how numbers work.

Koloamatangi definitely in the conversation for best available edge if he lines up.

If Matto was definitely back R16 I'd hold but too much uncertainty for me. Can see myself holding then he doesn't return until R17.

Seeing this inspired me to put a note on too, and wouldn't you know it, it was the exact same game that you put your note in for

MTB’s post count might slow down with all the time he is going to have to devote to moderating the notes on footystats.

Host is a great shout

It’s pretty red hot

If he is back r16 that’s really valuable as r16 looks dicey in general

Who would you trade out from Hudson Young and Haas?

Only 12 trades left, so keep on minimising churn. But Hopgoat and Tapine are very sensible-seeming options.

If you don't trust Ponga, then I am not sure there are any WFBs spending a trade on this week.

Bird is the best CTR by a mile this year, so if you can afford him I think now is as good a time as any to trade him in

Thanks for that,should I trade Haas or Walsh to get him in?

Great minds...
