NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 80 - Oprah level red dots

861 with Ponga and Tracey to go.

1 trade left for next week, feel like I'm going to need more than that to field 17 though.

Ramien and Koula have the potential to either make me very happy or very sad.

L1 Grand Final update.  I think it comes down to:
Me: Ramien and Koula + 35
BCT: Gagai and Averillo.

Still close but I think I've moved from underdog to favourite.  Although the fat lady hasn't even started warming up yet. Will be an exciting afternoon.  Enjoy your Sunday!

Yeah think you're safely in the drivers seat there. Great score from Cheese for ya.

Avo back at centre is likely for a 15 pointer.

670/12. DCE, McInnes, Ponga, Gagai and Avo/Colq to go. That's a couple points above par so with a full 17 hopefully I make some ranks this week.

I’ve got some points and some players left but fucked if I know what it all means, it’s all a bit hard on a Sunday morning

FWIW I still think you win the Eliminator.
Not having DCE its pretty terrifying this week.
The results so far are probably just making the competition closer than it deserved to be (which really should be a big win to you).

Chin up, and hope you have a super Sunday

Thanks mate. I keep looking at the flipside that it's gotta be good for your overall/Tigers league. That's the only thing that got me to sleep last night.. thinking about you Okay that's a little weird.

I abandoned overall and used both trades on H2H for this week and it's been disastrous. A lot of cheaper players going through to the keeper that scored 50-60+, while I traded Teddy for Butcher and Manu for 68 combined. No HK cover either, so that Brandon score twists the knife.

Haas, Yeo and Bula all underperforming, so expecting DCE to score 35-55 and Ramien ~30 the way things are going. Just one of those weeks

Hopefully Gagai and Ming join the list of underperformers today for Tens Machines. Nothing too crazy from DCE too. That late Walsh junk hurts as I know you were looking at him too. Radley was an astute pick-up though with his role the past weeks and someone I didn't look at at all.

Anyway good luck mate I feel better already.

DCE, Ponga, Friz and Nikora left to play today.

Hopefully we get some entertaining games full of points

Skelton appears to be out of the NSW Cup squad?

If a team secures the minor premiership in their last game, the shield presentation happens after the game right? The possibility of us actually winning some hardware has me considering dropping the few hundred to get down there and watch the Storm deny us the possibility of having a nice thing for the umpteenth time

Morrin playing cup so probably okunbor into the 17.

Maybe skelton just 18th man

Fingers crossed he comes in for wilson

Probably not the best idea to use him as a looper

Time to run some numbers on how often the 18th man is activated.

Horse suspended 3 weeks for a shoulder charge

Lol

I dont even recall this in the game

syn13 wrote:Horse suspended 3 weeks for a shoulder charge

Oh dear, I thought they made very little of that when it happened. The arms were very, very tardy

Looks like I’m hoping the Colq gets a run next week

Geez Hynes and Teddy best be making an appearance next week.

Hopgood, Manu and Horse need to be traded out next week so far

Then there are question marks over Grant and Cleary

Totally forgot about the mods league.  Looks like I'm in the GF against ET so I'll provide an update. If my maths is any good,  it looks like this:

Me: DCE, Ramien, Koula
ET: 93 + Colqhoun

Think I'm in front unless he's trading. Good luck.

I’m out two Eels, a Horse, likely Garrick and Grant, & whomever gets rested from teams who have locked in a top four spot.

This is next level. I can't recall anything like this carnage in the eight years I've been playing.

I have a trade and good squad depth but holy smokes next week is looking like a shit show.  

Hopgood
Manu
Horse
Grant?
Ted?
Hynes?
Cleary?

Wowsers.  Hopefully get Edwards back at least.

Still two bloody games to go too!
