NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 52 - Zero trade gang, rise up!

Jason Punching wrote:What are your thoughts guys:

I'm likely making 2 trades, leaving 5 left, and getting 12 out on park this week.

TU: SJ + Campbell, $98k in bank
TD: Tohu + Campbell, $178K in bank

Yes and no way to get him since I spent my Fifita fund last week

Will be watching from behind the couch

Without the goal kicking he isn't a keeper or a cow.

Scored basically a try per game for a <45 average

Similar to Jayden Campbell but atleast Campbell has a better bye schedule

Am in a conundrum, btw him and Cleary tbh

Thanks Chaps

Api probably helps team balance better (16 & 19 coverage) and plan would be to flip him to Grant post byes (yeah, like that's going to happen). I could stretch for Cook and be done with it but that creates a problem next round and leaves the bank looking thin, sort of regretting the Wighton trade in which takes up a valuable bench spot in 17.

Teddy would be lovely but currently am dancing on the edge in with 17 in 17 and Garrick should be back from there on in so Api is the more sensible play (unless Teddy gets a tonne this round )

Ended up with significantly more Origin players than planned but tbh given the trade situation I'm not overly bummed about it

SJ was 99 BE last week looked awful and lost 55k. Now his BE is 97. Lowest kick metres this season and Webster said that was planned but now will change but what will change? TMM kicking as well probably lessens SJ appeal. Tohu role is not clear and could go back to rubbish minutes when origin players back. Just avoid both this week

Have spent the whole season being somewhat grateful I don’t own Api. A lot of frustration has been aired in this forum over him.

But I am somewhat tempted that he can turn it around in the run home and like you say I think I could live with it if he doesn’t light the world on fire

Don't forget Manly are on a bye next week too so Garrick not back until round 18.

As a recent owner who was warned not to, I’m passing the same care to you: it’s not worth it.

Misses every second tackle and is Uber frustrating to watch.

Will mean a full 13 this week, both out next week and both would play 19.

Garrick has round 22 out as well, so it’s 10 rounds vs 8

Garrick is a proven gun at centre though and JC job security who knows. I think it’s safe to say des is not a boyd fan regardless.

Also a cash grab of 70k to consider.

Cant really see any other options for a Garrick trade this week, just a shame Campbell also misses next week.

Ha, pretty much my thinking when I was posting my post just now.  I agree but and extra 2 games is probably worth it.  I think JC has a spot in the team regardless of where he plays.  It does seem Boyd is pretty much done.

With Cook seemingly confirmed that he’s moving to Dragons next year suspect the Mamozuelos rotation might result in less mins for Cook if they’re out of finals contention near end of season

They need 9 of 11 wins I believe
