NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 72 - Crazy Trade Time

Hope it works out for you, but fair warning Edwards has been incredibly frustrating to own lately. Hopefully Cleary back helps.

Yeah it’s quite risky. I keep thinking maybe the 28 will do and can reassess next week, which is probably the smart play.

And to be honest the one week punts usually turn out quite disappointing haha

I do think Drink is the option over Lemu though. The Dolphin's season is pretty much done (I'm a supporter) unless some miracles happen. Word is JMK will get surgery ASAP pendent on results. Meaning HGraham will play out the season. And I wouldn't be surprised to see some rookies get game time off the bench which probably impacts Lemu.

As for cows - they're building momentum and that means Drinky is lighting it up. If you can afford him, I'd be getting him.

Not sure I'm writing the Dolphins off just yet. 4 points outside the 8 (when do the points for the bye get added?), and still games against the Knights, Cowboys, and Roosters who they've already beaten this seasons - should hold no fear - plus the Dogs and Tigers who are both obviously very beatable. Only the Warriors in the final round looms as an intimidating game. Reasonable chance to go say 4/6 with that draw and hope a few other results go your way. Wouldn't say it's likely, but certainly possible.

I've added a little trade performance summary to each of the user pages.

You can see it here: https://yafss.com/fantasyuser/157645/

It shows profit made from trades, profit made from trade ins that hasn't been realised (traded out) yet and average profit per trade. Not really sure what they say yet, but worth having a look at.

That's really interesting thanks mate

So Booze in rank #1 has $91k profit per trade made. Makes the $150k trade value seem way over done

More trades this season, with the extras intended to cover sideways trading for byes.

You will still need your cows to be making $150k.

I don't know if I missed this discussion earlier in the season, but wasn't the $150k value calculated back when we had fewer trades? So with more trades this year it should be a bit less?

Nice. I do actually track this for myself.

Is the avg profit just the actual trades, or also the unrealised?

Yeah that makes sense, probably where I didn't tackle hard enough doing sideways trades for byes

No one in the second game tonight. Couch will be needed

Just the actual trades, in the linked example 3,752,000 / 41 = 91.5k.

The language is confusing though, I'll have a think about it.

I think buying him for the current price is madness truthfully. But then, I didn't own Turbo in 2021. This could be a similar situation I guess.

Am I the only one really surprised by Hynes being overwhelmingly favoured for captaincy?

Got room behind there for another mate?

Plenty, I will also provide snacks

Interestingly it completely switches around the higher up in the ranks you go. For example in the top 25 60% have Cleary as captain

Not playing a top 8 team, so should score well

What a lad!

Bit of alone time ??

filthridden wrote:Am I the only one really surprised by Hynes being overwhelmingly favoured for captaincy?

I try to avoid captaining people I've just traded in (especially if they are returning from injury) just in case something happens and I need to reverse trades

I think that, plus general wariness about the hamstring has led people to rely on Hynes.

I have no idea how effective these snacks will be at shielding us from the inevitable pain.
