NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 60 - Keep your paws off our players Billy and Freddie

Khany wrote:Hard to believe they'd drop Hynes, but it's looking likely

The funny thing is that after this week, he has lower ownership than Moses.

938 and down from 4th to 19th but with a few updates to come, might get mid-teens.

Sacrificed Moses's points this week because too tight on trades (6) to flip him straight back out if he got Origin, which I figured was about 40%. Now I'd say 80%.

700k in the bank. Will buy Hynes for Ford next week assuming no Origin, Moses in the unlikely event it goes the other way. Assuming Robson/Cook are in Origin, will need a R16/19 hooker, so that's Simpkin, giving me a decent 12 for next week. Leaves enough cash to bring back Haas for Oloapu the week after before he goes out of reach. Fuck round 19, short of WFBs for that, but not worth the trades, might get another centre nearer the time. Would have all of two trades spare for injuries.

Planned team for R18

Cook
Haas, JDB, Hors
Difita, iPap
Hynes, DCE
Manu, Lemu
Ted, Bula, Drinkwater

Robson, SJ, Preston, (Hopgood)
Ponga, Sorenson, Simpkin (Makatoa)

Ideally I'd want Turbo, Grant and Cleary in for the run home, but they might only be marginal upgrades.

Did he catch up the 70 odd points you needed to get ahead of mtvb?

Oh Matt!!!       something something ... rent free ... be careful the wind does not change and you look like this forever

I find it really interesting that there is such a massive disconnect between highly ranked fantasy players, with almost 70% of top 1,000 players having him in their team, with the vast majority buying him this week, obviously expecting he is a very low chance of Origin, and the media hype train thinking he is the front-runner for the job.

Perham and Oloapu to go back to scoring mid 30s next when I need them.

It is the way

Yeah I wonder who's better connected to the NSW coaching staff.

Whoah, that was quick. Wonder if they're aiming to lift lockout.

Penisini got paid his offload, but didn't have his try taken off him, luckily for owners.

I have Turps and expect that, as well.

In a way I’m kinda annoyed Oloapu scored good because now you probably need to keep through R17 bye with his cash gen really starting to move now

Been saying it all season that the minor byes are going to be tougher than the major byes. Thankfully R20 at this stage I’ll only have Horse and Bird (to come back in by then)

Fantasy Fanatics in 1st & 2nd.
Well, that's something to brag on.
Great work fellas. Represent.

Yeah will need to have a look at the team tracker to see if I can manage that little twist.

From Roosters injury update

Billy Smith has resumed full team training after the centre sustained a bruised sternum in the lead up to last week’s match.

Sam Walker will meet with a surgeon this week to review his ACL sprain.

Very limited options for the RD19 bye in the WFB department. Unless you are Booze of course
