NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 58 - I can’t see Cleary through the tears

Elliot will be popular next week, if he keeps the same big minutes lock role as last week. Scored poorly but has the fantasy pedigree

Big IF there though.

elliot is eye test this week for me in advance of rd16

I don't see anyone in your 21 I'd trade this week, so I'd definitely holster the finger guns. Tatola was originally on my list of tradeouts, but looks a safe hold this week. Crossland and Oloapu making money and obviously important for Rd 16. Kick back and appreciate holding the trades down the line when you need them

I think I’ll be holding Tatola this week and getting Garlick instead of Fainu next week and then do Nikorima to Matterson if he’s available

My only trades out this week besides Cleary are Tatola or Billy Myth

If say someone had the chance to play either Niko, Ponga or ahmmmm....Crossland beside SJ in place of Cleary (maybe even loop two of them) should said Fanatic wait a week before diving into a Cleary to Moses trade?

It's sort of Moses or bust for me as well with this lot

Cook
Haas, Horse, Tohu
Hopgood, Ipap
SJ, Cleary
Lemu, Ramien
Manu, Teddy, Bula

Grant
Carrigan
Preston
EKatoa
Ponga
Niko
Crossland
Burbo

Any obvious moves I'm missing???

Knights and Dolphins play before Panthers so could loop at least one and if they suck just trade Cleary to Moses

Just saw this on the news and went ah shit, thought he was going to be alright to play.

Dylbags to Moses it is then I guess, love using a trade on that.

What if Dylan is allowed to play next week? Surely this won’t drag out long

You and I both.

Carty it Loeiro will make way

Round 16 is going to hurt, looking likely to have 10 at this stage
I wonder how most other teams are looking - would be keen to see the poll on teams round 16 numbers once it comes around

Next court date is 3 weeks ago I saw. So he’ll be suspended until then you’d think?

Thanks, thats what I was thinking. Moses definitely the best option but don't feel like pushing it with SOO speculation up in the air

NSW naming their team on Tuesday does suggest Moses is under consideration. Maybe, like a certain poster here, Freddie is a big fan of recency bias. (Could also refer to Burton/RCG/TPJ.)

Oh right I hadn’t seen about the 3 weeks

Who are the Eels going to play in the halves if Moses gets the Origin call up?
Asi & Carty???

Guth? He'll get goalkicking as well, if they score any tries.

Cleary to Moses the obvious trade, it's what I'm doing. You'll want him for rd16 unless you play Ponga and Crossland in the halves, but then you'll be short at hooker and wfb. Moses just makes sense. You could wait a week certainly depending on you risk appetite/trades left.

I dont think moses will be selected tbh (and i dont think how he plays monday will have any effect on his selection/non selection)

Do think its more to do with rcg/tpj and maybe burton for 14

Yep, listen to Camo.

Shady2K wrote:

Probably looking at a WFB (have Walsh, Ponga, Bula and Manu). Think Walsh might cop at least 1 rest + 3 byes left means I’ll probably sell later on

You might not listen to me after I’m leaning towards Marzhew. The only issue with Marzhew I’m seeing is next 3 games of Broncos/Roosters/Panthers but low games have been in 30s. But like advice above I’m at least looping Nikorima prior to making decision

I already have Moses

Actually that works for my team too. Cheers mate.

Has there been any rumours around Brandon Smiths return?

Am tempted to get on the Turps this week (need a hook for rnd 16) and he will make a bit of cash quickly if BS9 is actually out til rnd 20..

Looking like I may hold Tats until Rd 19 with 8 trades and 6 pencilled in. Garlick is an interesting shout though as a Grant owner and I'm short MID/HK next week.

Currently have 5 MIDs for Rd 19, but Hedwards should be gone by then. Horse, Hopgood and Harris (time to play the game) the 3, but fringe origin selections and Harris walking wounded. If they're good to go, then I'll cash Tats out if I still have the trade to spare.
