NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 55 - Make Mods Great Again

wolfking wrote:Got exactly enough to turn JMK to Grant with 0K left.  Wonder if this is the play and just run Hands for his 15 points next week.  Swapping to Api after yesterday's performance feels gross.

Been watching Grant though and he has been pretty shit.

Certainly, wouldn't run Hands as your only Hooker.

Grant has looked average but not much downside at 657k, might get some positive try regression coming through also.


I have Grant JMK Hands and i do think im ok with running Grant Hands combo for the year.

Need to see how long JMK is out though.

Real tempted to use my last 2 trades on KPP and Weekes

Can do something like Fifita and Grant which gives me edge cover or run the gauntlet with Yeo and Murray and no cover until 20

Taking the origin players out of rd 19 trading options narrows options somewhat

Only looking at WFBs this week.

Koula if named at FB will probably be one, and then perhaps the Marzhew express a stop late

Pretty happy with my round - 725 from 14 players (after trades… fml) could have been a LOT worse. Only dropped 1000 places to 4800 or so.

Whomever gets that manly #1 jersey this week will be popular, unless it's Lehi..

Thinking just next week in relation to playing Hands.  Not sure it's worth grabbing an Api, Brailey, Clark etc just to benefit one round.  If a cashout come up though, can aim for Cook.

Grant as underwhelming as he is feels like a bargain at 657K.  I'll see what Hands scores first though.  You never know.

JMK a trade IMO.  Not scoring near enough someone worth holding a few weeks, unless he's back next week which seems unlikely.

Will they be unpopular in 2 weeks time if they move Trbo back there?

I own Koula, so hoping for him to get the FB sport, But I wouldn't be trading him in even if he gets named there this week.

Updates gave me the win in my H2H in R9 and up to 5th spot. I don't think I have ever been in the top 8 at the end of the year in a league, so things are looking good. Old Rabbit is still down in 15th spot, unfortunately.

I got no trades, but I also have a full team for the next three rounds without any trades if there are no unforeseen injuries. Probability suggests there won't be, as there has been more than expected already.

Hoping to sail into the top 10,000 for the run home by R20 and front load my trades for maximum impact

Angus extends for 2 more years. I assume this means Robbo will start playing him for 120 minutes a game 3 games per week

Yeah, I would pass on Api Brailey Clark not paying up for those guys when we have Yeo Carrigan at high 700s, Moses Murray at 700ish and Hynes Clearly in mid 800s as buy options.

Not even sure on Cook (who I can afford) just because there are better non hooker options around. not sure how he will go with moving clubs if the reduce his minutes towards the back end if they fall out of finals calculations.

I need someone cheap that plays WFB in 19

Naden.

Genius

Actually, on second thoughts might go for Cook.

Didn't realise he was going 57 taking out that 47minute game.

Buying him when Yeo is less then 50k more seems wrong though.

Probably doesn’t even play 18 with Olam back

My stupid idea is Johnston. Probably going to score 10 every week but at least has no job security issues

Do you?

What happens if you play 1 short that week and save the trade?

I mean, if Koula does play fullback in R19, and for a bunch of weeks after that then its probably a good trade. But if he goes back to centre, after a couple of weeks, or is dropped from the team entirely, how happy will you be with 35 extra points in R19 for that trade?

Was stunned when the fox commentators late in the game yesterday had a brief but serious debate over which one of Douehi or Naden would make way for Olam as if the answer required any thought whatsoever.

I mean the reason I’m getting a WFB cashout is primarily to afford the big priced guns with the R19 score as bonus
