NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 29 - new thread sponsored by Temu

Well done to everyone who had a good week. It's nice to see the forum doing so well.

The bad news - I had a shocker this week 705 playing with 16 - Tatola and Tupouniua hurt. Couldn't trade them out because I already did two trades to field 16.

I'm hoping the three trade week can help me field a full team.

Rank 55802 - Setting myself up for the Lord of the byes rank improvement victory this year

The good news - I was too busy IRL to notice the carnage until today

Yeah, 700+ this game.

Nearly doubled his previous career high in kick metres and was about 5x his career average. It's clear he is the dominant kicker while Brimson is his halves partner. Will be bringing him in if Weaver isn't named

The man is held together with tape, not even duck tape masking tape at the very best. He is not going to last a month without having some form of injury.

I didn't believe you at first, but quality update as captain haha. Shame I didn't pick any of the 7 of my other players that still outscored him

Nah I'm not one of those regulars that makes shit up or downplays a player all week, only to quietly trade them in.

Just sayin'

Terrell May up to 71 as well?

I'm not getting this Grant update on desktop or app?

EDIT: footystats has it. The Dogs-Storm game is currently 0-0 with no stats recorded, so some refresh happening at NRL stats HQ

If we got one full season out of Turbo’s paper hammies, surely we can get one full mid-season out of masking tape joints

He nearly went down limping multiple times the other day. He's a dud pick

The thing that really keeps me away from him is his attitude. If he makes a couple mistakes he gets all stroppy and takes himself out of the game. Just can't do that to myself.

Where's SJ?

Sorry Ponga what?

Anyone work in HR here ? I know most are porn stars and hand models, but thought I'd check anyway

He struggled to play out the game with the hip pointer injury. He's been given the all clear due to the 10 day turn around and there is minimal concern for him.

Thank you kind sir.

This would solve my WFB situation if he got instant DPP (not gunna happen)

ponga definitely got a needle at h/t & was back to his best in the 2nd half....they'll just needle him up again i can't see him having a rest.

Likely Levi, Burbo and either Hutch or Campbell out for me. The last will depend on how many green dots, may have to hold Hutch

Likely Angus, Chevy and TBA in

My main concern is that Raiders bye isn't far off and adding another raider seems stressful.

Doesn't rule him out though.

I just lost 170 points

tough downdates
