NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 9 - I can't even restart my whole team anymore

What the fuck have I done to my team?

I am looping Levi, should score fine.

Smithes OUT - Lucas IN

It is what it is

I could go Luki to Lucas. He's going to score tries and he's going to be one of the Knights best this year. I rate him extremely highly. I think I'll save the $62k and just miss this one but I rate him very highly.

G’day footy fans.

Have not heard Palasia has not been mentioned? Not sure who takes his lock spot? Probably a slower burn cash cow but should make money. Could be this years Josh King?

For those who care I’m going Strange over the other shitto’s, it’s one less thing to think about. Play him at centre and even if he scores single digits, him and Trbo can average 30ish between them. 

Kiraz moves to 14-17 for the week.

Great night, the poms are crumbling in India.

Join me!

Could play time at lock as well. Would have seriously considered him if he had been named at lock. Wait and see maybe. Bye R2, no hurry.

Lussick (to be solo HOK most weeks)  
Russell (put on 7kg of muscle over the off season - passed the eye test in the trials)
Rapana (value at FB)
Harris (unencumbered by injury - cut price gun)
McInnes (fiipped roles with finucane - taking on leadership role)
Shhhhhhhchuster (biggest scam of the year - totally gonna play round 2)

Don’t understand the Schuster pick, surely can flip a dud to him once he’s named to start. What do you do if he doesn’t play until RD6?

Hopefully he does play RD2 because Sitili > Schuster is an easy move.

Josh King didnt have Mofo - 64 minutes and Tino - 62 minutes to compete with. Low PPM for a mid.

Lucas is sharing minutes, isn't he?

Schuster was done last week - There are always too many fires to put out week 2 - awkward price could be difficult just to switch to him without causing dramas elsewhere - i reckon sitili is worth keeping - i also reckon that everyone write sitili cos they cannot be decked learning how to spell Tupouniua

Supposedly but if theyre sharing hooker and elliot isnt an 80 min guy.. then thats a lot of subs on middles

Kpp could finish the game out on edge but.. what time is the sub

Tonight feels like a proper Round 1 start for me. I enjoyed the Vegas games but it didn't feel right with the Sunday afternoon here, Saturday night there, NFL-vibe, half empty stadium at kick off, weird references to basketball overrunning on FSN1 - type stuff. Let's get ready to rumble!

Only one drink will do tonight - 1 part Bailey's, 1 part creme de banane, 1 part kahlua and 2 drops of raspberry liqueur - known as a Banana Up The Duff

Hate to sound like a nitpicking douche but I assure you that no NRL player can put on 7kg of lean muscle in one off season (without steroids anyway). He may well be 7kg heavier though.

He'll play the first 20 only and the last 15 as per Ricky ball rules.

Excited for all my players with job security issues to actually have job security issues.

Ah yeah he’s locked out. Didn’t think of that.

I’m with you here Rabs.

I have 4 Raiders in the 17, 1 Raider suspended and 1 in 18-21. Im not at all convinced this ends well.

I don’t want to perform the mental gymnastics of sorting it out either.

Let’s ride.

You'd think I would learn from every other year and not contemplate last minute changes but yet here we are once again. Problem is my debate doesnt lockout till Sat so another couple of days of overthinking and flip flopping ahead.

Love it
