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

precursor wrote:Everyone else's MID for rd. 16 looking dog dick?

Probably going to be Matterson, Elliot, Edwards

Not breaking any records with that lot

Looking at the top 100 there are 7-9 teams with 12-16 trades left these guys are well placed, DK is one of them I’m backing him to storm home and finish in the top 10 for sure.

Some are cooked too with only 3-5 trades left I fear for these teams.

Oh wow I only just noticed Talau made some money this week

I'd assume 13 - the number of scoring players you can run.

Love the bank, but $ isn't how you win this game.
Points are all that matters.
That's an uber-gun you aren't playing.

Preach brother.

Hopgood / Matterson / Fainu
(Manly better not bench him)

See my post from earlier in the week, 90% of the replacements are Origin players missing at least 2 weeks. No point buying Hynes now if he misses 3-4 of next 6

I’ll be looking at using bank in coming weeks to get Matterson, Bird and Hynes for Nikorima, Billy Smith and Loiero

Condon played left edge at Cowboys.  I guess he isn't a position atm to be too choosey.

What's doing Luki owners ? Seems like he could be a hold for the bye but that might be his last game of decent minutes and Fainu is now or never

I'm holding him for round 16. It's actually helpful he can't lose cash this week.

I did trade Burbo to Fainu though in hopes he stays in the team for R16.

Trade Luki out to a Nikora/Bateman/Papapali after RND17

Thanks for the replies lads

Been super busy at work, but much appreciated.

Yeah, but who should that be is the issue

Moses but then the risk he misses R16 due to Origin? Otherwise I'm pretty well set up.

Just thinking about this again as i noticed the nrl.com article.

"Cult hero" status is funny.

Requirements to be a cult hero: be a chonky boy.

Makes him appear relatable and also super cuddly.

Thanks, your condolences are appreciated.

3 trades left after my 1 this week. Could be a rapid decline post bye period.

You're a bit of a "cult hero" on this forum... the question is:

Are you chonky?

Agreed on the Moses Origin risk, but where's the fun in playing it safe?
