NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 71 - yeet regret

I'm one of the rare non Horse owners.

I can do Tohu and Simpkin to Horse and a nuffie right now. But if the prices shift 40k that option is gone.

But if I do it, I'm down to 2 trades. Team would look like

Grant
Yeo/JDB/Horse
Fifita/Bateman
Cleary/Hynes
Manu/Ramien
Ponga/Teddy/Dedwards

SJ/Moses/Hopgood/Papalii

Bula 18th man.

Worth the punt or just be patient? Simpkin is really the last bit of cash I can extract if I want to keep that 18th man option.

Drinkwater has been killing it but a 35 or two is just around the corner, dont mind the jump off move

Having a play with some different moves for fun

A) NButcher +    Gutho    to Murray + Cleary
B) Manu +         Gutho    to Garrick + Cleary
C) Drinkwater + Gutho to Garrick + Cleary + 121k
D) Drinkwater + NButcher To Cleary + Haas

In Option D who plays WFB in place of Drinky mate?

If position doesn’t matter
TU Murray
TD DCE

Jumping off Drinky, Jeepers mate!  

How's the limb?

Going the reverse Rev mate and jumping off a purple patch. Maybe

Even if he averages 55 from now on in, Yeo is a decent upgrade you would think.

Not too bad thanks mate, been ditching my physio but been called back this week, just cant get the time off work! Lacking the same swinging arm power as previously but sure that can be worked on

Have you got his official BE? MTB has him at 33. 'Shouldn't' lose coin but another blinder and he netts you another solid rise. I know you have always been partial to a bit of Yeo though.

Good to hear, yeah, I'm an A grade Physio dodger as well!

Hmm if Murray was playing last week and I didn't need a MID.. Probably would've gone with DCE first. Locked in for 80 mins while Murray's could be game dependant.

TU: Timoko
TD: Kiraz + 120k but in a worse team

NRL Physio saying Wilton most likely meniscus injury, with surgery 4 -6 wks

Well the others are like for like replacements

D) would mean Gutho/Bula/Manu would rotate in the WFB spot

So that team would look something like this hypothetically, But 4 eels for rd27 isn't fun either


Grant
Haas Horse JDB
Fifita Bateman
Cleary Hynes
Penisini Manu
Gutherson Ponga Teddy

Johnson Hopgood Matterson NButcher
TBoyd Lemuelu Bula Skelton

E) I could easily trade a Drinkwater/NButcher/Hopgood/Manu to Cleary in 1 trade too but a little fantasy within the fantasy is nice too

Not so worried about the coin mate, just a gut feeling he won't maintain close to current scoring in next 7 games.

Plus Yeo could play an extra game, but doubtful as likely to get rested so i wont be banking on that

Hi Champ, congrats on the recent Lord of the Byes win and pending charge towards a championship.

Think you need to start unloading some Eels, so I lean option A or B.
Manu at centre for the rest of the season isn’t ideal, so makes sense to offload him. I like both Murray or Garrick for the run home, possibly Garrick > Murray due to the extra game availability and dpp.
Don’t see the need to get rid of Drinky unless you’re worried about the Cowboys bye.

Can’t really fault any of the 4, so go with whichever feels the most fun

I think on reflection, in Booze case getting rid of Drinky could backfire if he maintains current scoring, others around will keep so safer in numbers

Getting rid of Gutho and Matto might be the way to go

Hasn't Yeo been rested twice, or was the other one an injury? Feels like he plays through if so, and nabs you the extra game like you say.

I haven't owned Haas all year and was excited to bring him in, but Yeo for 40k less and more than likely an extra game has me thinking.

Cancelling the comm games seems like a good idea

Might choose another sub 230k other than skelton, there is a possibility VTW survives next round

I forgot the comm games existed until today….by next week I’ll have forgotten again.

Can’t we just organise a big swimming carnival? That’s all we care about isn’t it?

Team analyser/ownerships updated to round 20

Probably looking at pretty boring trades.

NAS to Colquhoun
One of Preston/Tohu/Boyd to Cleary

Boyd offers good cover, especially for HOK since I only have Grant and Graham.
Tohu and Preston both have a bye so it’s probably a coin flip

Jacob Alick 60 in 60 mins? Wtf who is he? One hit wonder?

Averages 60 seems like a gun keeper to me
