2016 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 23

hit 885. no smith or fifita. wouldve broken 900 but tolman had a pretty average 30 odd

888. Not shabby and glad I picked up Holland.

Anyone play him for his 56?

Sitting just outside the top 1,500 now. Please be a no-trade week!

Tossing up between Graham and JDB to replace Woods. I want both of them before Origin I so it mostly comes down to who's going to be the cheapest by then so I'll wait for BE's but right now I think it's JDB who's on a steady price rise so gone with him for now.
Very unsure of whether to keep the R on B Law or not. Got completely shafted for minutes on Saturday but if he's given those 40 minutes like he should then I trust him to get a good score. Also tempted to play Holland over Aubo in the CTR's but I'm weary of chasing points and benching guys I've been using all year. I mean I did want to bench CLaw this past round but decided to keep the faith and boom 59 points.

Current side

Smith Parcell
JDB Trbojevic Mataora Leuliau
Surgess Whitehead Taupau Cartwright Saifiti Henry
Milford Hastings Taylor Feeney
Aubusson Holland Auvaa Scott
Gordon Barba Mansour Mitchell Gutherson

Option 1 - Saifiti > JGraham
Option 2 - Scott/Feeney > Yeo
Option 3 - Saifiti > Graham and Aubusson > Yeo

Any suggestions?

Will Fifita play origin? Is JDB a chance at making the side (assuming Corner won't be ready for game 1)

mate i think someone is losing to their mate in h2h and sends an email to fanhub saying X player didnt get marked down for an error and they fix it up. the stats guys are useless.

mataora didn't get marked down for his play the ball error (even after 'updates'). there was a heap of posting on various groups about it. now that everything is final he has been given the error.

fifita - nothing more certain

jdb - not sure, probably not, but i guess he is a chance.

Holland will be marking kata this week. Kata looks like a difficult man to tackle so maybe more miss tackles for holland but always the chance for more attacking stats vs warriors

If Holland is kicking goals then that's pretty much a guaranteed 10-12 points itself.

Centre options are Holland, Dugan, Hunt and Gutherson. Sticking with Duges and Hunt for now, myself.

Hmmm not many cash out options for Carter, and with 54k in bank can't upgrade him. Carter to Auva'a a viable trade? I know Auva'a isn't scoring the greatest, but you'd have to think that Bunnies have to improve and he will get some tries.

Well Adam Reynolds is back this week and they're always better with him. Problem is Auva'a is only in the centres while Johnston is out injured.

SO my main team is doing very poorly. My Gf's team represents my alternative decision making. And its killing it. Have 28 trades up my sleeve and ranked 1,000. Has all the cows and all the good players, well set up for byes.

So by this logic, pretty well ignore anything i post on these forums from this point.

All eyes on Arey/walker this week? My trouble is finding downgrade options for safiti and walker. I assume everyone is in the same boat.

Hmm forgot about that, I don't want to kill off the spot though. Anyone got any suggestions for a cash out option in FRF, 2RF, CTR or WFB?

Storm v Bulldogs changes:

One more week from Walker would be nice so I can trade him to Hunt/SJ next week

Does anyone think he will hold his spot over keary?

I honestly couldn't split them.

Smith Parcell
Fifita JDB Jtrbo
Surgess Fensom Cartwright Whitehead
Hastings Walker (will switch in Taylor if Walker is out)
Holland Gutherson
Tedesco Mansour Mitchell Barba

Holland looks to be a pretty solid defender. Has good technique.

Walker has played well but I can't see Keary losing his spot
