NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 25 - Now that's a fire !!

9/447 with Captain Carrigan.

I own Russell. Currently swapped him for Talagi. Would you reverse that trade? My thoughts were a) Talagai now gets his hands on the ball and b) cash gen and c) pocket 50k.

I agree.

You want to start from the bench in real life, you don’t start for the Green Machine in fantasy

I was just about to say the same - the thing about Burbo. What a sad Fantasy day.

Holy shit that's a costly game.

They're going to need SHughes playing 80ish in some kind of hybrid role at this rate

Cheese: 35
Terrell: 23
Sitili: 13
Teddy: 5
Young: -12

Once the outrage wears off, Hutch slotting into the 30's again possibly means he could stay another week.

Injuries and suspensions pending, though, this might actually be the first week that I can try to upgrade green dots (touch wood) and he'll probably still be first in line to go. Unless it's Terrell? Really hoping we get some clarity on that one.

Has anyone banked any trades? I've double traded every week.

Gould likes a story and he is 100% playing up some of that because they nearly lost to 11 players

Yeah, jeez, I didn't realise a lot of that happened. Hope Edwards in particular is okay; that one's pretty full on.

Not to be that guy, but Hughes and Salmon probably prolong their stays in teams, and Curran becomes that bit more vital to get in.

Early interest in Angus and Curran for next week, pending the rest of the round.

Nup. Double trading whore every week here.
Need to stop ASAP.
However, Angus will be necessary next week.
And, who knows how many of the Bludgers will be broken after this round.

Yeah I was looking at Hutch to Angus and Teddy to Grant, but Teddy's massive price drop to go with the shit score nullifies that, so might punt Tatola/Smithies instead of Hutch.

Yep, Angus is an absolute must next week, he will be everyone's trade in

Curran must be reaching 'through to the keeper' point by now.

One score over 50 in 5 games despite dogs being hampered by injuries in four of them. The one game they didnt cop an injury he played 45 mins.  Looks a 45 pt player and hes almost priced there now

Edit i guess they have a few injuries to deal with, still tempting i suppose. The bye is coming though..

9/241, bet nobody can go lower per player then that, just an absolute shambles of a team, where’s the ‘delete team’ button again?

I made one trade in week one, and one trade this week. Double traded in between.

My team is fucking awful.

Yeah, Smithies still my #1 trade out target for next week. Assuming I do two, and I think I will to try and clear out some of these plodders, I still have Burbo and Chan that could possibly beat Hutch to the punch. Though if I'm looking at the likes of Curran and Angus I might need the value of someone like Hutch.

No point speculating now... will see how it all plays out. I could still get three injuries on Sunday for all I know.

Honeysett wrote:Has anyone banked any trades? I've double traded every week.

I've managed with no trades R1, and 1 trade this week.

Ando wrote:

Are we confident Angus plays 80 (or thereabouts)?

If hynes can lose 20k before next week i can do hutch to hynes in one trade

Honeysett wrote:Has anyone banked any trades? I've double traded every week.

I've banked 1 this week. (although may still use it before the round is done)

Was a great save of a trade too. Could have wasted it bringing Angus Crichton in (Gutherson, Ponga, Carrigan were other considerations)
