NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 20 - The Gang All Get Injured

Tedesco is in for Walsh.

Then who is a more pressing trade this week between T. May, Koroisau, Fogarty?

That gives a week to look at KPP, Blaize, and whoever else has value as then I can sideways trade shittos out hopefully

I think they are all in the "get them this week or don't bother at all" category.

May - priced at 44, can probably average 55 the next few weeks and can be a keeper until probably at least R18, with Collins playing Origin in R13 and 16 when May will be available to play.

Koro - priced at 48, likely plays origin, missing R13,16,19.  Probably a 55 average in an absolute best case scenario at Tigers, when looking at his Panthers stats.

Fog - priced at 51, plays 13 and 16, potential season keeper. Probably a 55 average when his kicking stats drop to anything at all normal for a dominant half and the Raiders lose a few more games.

Based on this, I'd say May, especially if looking to stay with the pack, as he has by far the highest ownership at 23%.

Also much harder to find that kind of value in his position for a keeper at that price.

Instead of Fog you could grab Brown next week, or Hynes after his bye after dropping in price.

Brailey will be a steal when he starts playing 80 minutes and can be played through the byes next to Brandon.

A week like this week, I need to make more than two trades, it's frustrating. We have players dropping like flies, and can't even be rewarded for taking more risk if that's how u play.

Currently have him as my trade out and holding Piakura, Cleary and Smithies.

Still good practise to set up as best you can.

One day someone is going to pull out a surprise 60 and you want to be able to loop them in when it happens

I don't think there are any teams that are avoiding playing at least 2-3 of Strange, Burbo, Salmon, Hughes, Levi this week, the problem is that almost everyone is playing all of them or maybe getting 1 in a loop.

my shit team pre trades:

I know everyone is really keen on Turbo and im sure he will destory the dragons. But that extra 200k lets me start upgrading the shitters next week and grab someone like KPP easier. Appreciate any thoughts

EDIT: I wonder if Kiraz is an option for Kini which leaves 180k but just feels like chasing points...

Unlimited trades is utterly rediculous but one extra would have been nice. I know nothing about coding but how difficult would it have been to allow us a third or fourth trade this week. It’s an week from hell that affects just about everyone in a very bad way. They could even push the Rd 7 4/week back to Rd 8. I’m still waiting for Cotter to be a late out just to drive that final nail in.
