NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 16 - Tommy Talau has arrived... A year too late.

I really need a decent 2nd Half.
Fog is the obvious choice (someone convince me of another sub $700k half please).
To facilitate this, Galvin looks like the best cheap cow who will make quick coin. Added bonus is he offers another half option (if desperate times arise).
On the block is Hutcho.
But I have a lot of spare Edges > Duncan / Wong / Sitili / Chan / Salmon (Crikey it looks like a Dirty-middie-a-thon)
Question for those who know more than me - who would you suggest should be the first to get the chop? I have no emotional bias for or against any of them.

Sitili is going to be the first of that lot gone for me. He's too low PPM when he's not getting consistent minutes.

If you can wait another week, it's quite possible Moses becomes a sub 700 half, much to my dismay

Will be trading Sitili, Wong, Hutch, Salmon, BS9, Kiraz this week, to six players who score more points.

Cheers

Oh no matty.. Sullivan and McIntyre were in's ? no no no no no. almost as good as me trading out hopgood

we basically started with the same team haha

Hmm yeah I should probably find a way to not let that opportunity slip

whats the angus chat ? did robbo say anything or we just assuming changes ?

the centre whisperer is top of the FOG, you love to see it

I think there was an article saying Angus looked ready to return, while Schuster does not. Based on the Cup game.

I reckon Angus probably returns on the bench if he's back.

Hutch updated to 27 and smashed his BE by 1 point so I'm gonna ride his price rises all the way to Tuesday

i think robbo could probably just run 4 edges for 40 mins each per game. BS9 watson and sandon for 26 mins each a game splitting hooker. why not. terrell collins and radley 80 mins each. big brain stuff.

Revs in first though so not a very good indicator of skill and ability

Apparently he killed it yesterday in NSW Cup (and Josh Schuster did the opposite, so Burbo fans rejoice)

Are we taking full notice of NSW Cup now? Will check out how young gun Jayden Sullivan does next week.

I realise the first priority of this forum is hanging shit on matt. But sometimes people like posting information that can be useful too, even if that means referencing NSW Cup, or players that aren't in matt's team

It wasn't even Matt-specific. If I wanted to go there, there's plenty of of other stuff I could go with, but what's the point? Forum has been fairly restrained given how much talk there was the previous week.

Correlation between NSW Cup stats and first grade performance is barely relevant. That's been a conversation point with or without Matt, but has been shown in extremis with Sullivan. If I was picking up Angus, then the things I'd factor in are previous NRl experience (big thumbs up) and the fact that he's one of four mid-priced Roosters edges, any one of whom could start, bench, or start *and* be benched (big thumbs down). How he did against Manly reserves is not massively useful, I don't think.

Schuster playing badly (if he did, have no idea if reporter watched game or just looks at stat line) *is* relevant in the way it impacts the commonly-owned Burbo and his job security.

PS well done in absolutely smashing me in L1 H2H this week.

If you want to talk about correlations let's talk about scores vs posting. Matt sitting at 0.99.

Matt is great for misleading the newbies. We all need Matt.

someone unlock my team so i can trade everyone out

Damn now I look like an idiot for looping in Levi’s 26

Kris has to miss next week as well right? Must be nice to get to look at all your shiny toys while i trade another WFB in

You can get a shiny toy! Like Tommy Tala... oh.

I’ll be playing Strange over Kris this week. Looking forward to getting 13pts out of him

Can get the jump on Jampbell a week early. Or wildcard Vaega at 342k if he's in for Saab/Talau. Not sure how long Tuaupiki has left.
