NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 64 - Trading Cleary out again

Going to use my last trade and be done with it (after doing Cleary to Yeo with second to last) but just not sure what to settle on.

Lots of options... Just have 4 WFBs so maybe I should get another for extra safety but not a must. Could do:

Mahoney to Lomax/Angus/Kini

Fainu to Reynolds/Luai/Ponga

Watson to Burton/Turbo/Liddle - think I'd rather keep Watson though and hope he can muster up a couple good scores in the final rounds.

Should probably just be Fainu to Ponga but it would give me 3 x Knights backs as I already have Gagai and Marzhew, would be lots of eggs in the Knights basket.

I enjoy his posts too be a shame to lose him.

Rumours Trai Fuller starting at FB this week with Hammer to centre. Fainu > Fuller

If you don't want a 3rd knight, how about Dom Young? That run home is very appealing for Roosters. Could score 10 tries against Rabbitohs. Gotta be Fainu out is all I know for sure

Interesting, would actually fancy a punt on Fuller if that happened but Fainu locks tonight is the issue.

Young def an option too, wanted to get him last week now feel like I missed his big score. The draw is good though possible he adds a couple more hat tricks yet.

Thanks for your thoughts mate.

Not much captain chat. I need a GF captain.

Is Yeo the go or is he a risk of reduced minutes against the raiders?
Perhaps he’ll grab one of the 15 tries…

Outside of him it’s probably Cook or one of the warriors forwards but both have recent 39’s which are concerning.

Despite trading in Yeo think I might captain Carrigan or Murray. Can't handle the 1% chance Yeo is a late out locked in as C.

This old gem needs another run today

Just seen Erin Clark is going to the warriors, which I'm not overly fussed about. But the shocking part of the article was that Temepara Bailey is his mum. Fuck that made me feel old

Sorry, the Fuller comment was a shitpost. Someone said we needed more of those

Had to google who that was, obviously netballers not famous across the Tasman like rugby players or cricketers

Then found a very old article about her and her young children, including son Erin-Wayne lol

As a non Yeo owner I'm all for him getting reduced minutes in preparation for finals

I'm rolling the dice with captain DCE, but think that Patty or Yeo are the safe and sensible picks

Why would there be a chance of this over any other player? Is there any talk on resting? I don't see him being rested much at all, especially this week after a loss last week.

Kinda get it, if he was a late out, you can at least reverse the trade.

If its locked on a player you already owned, it doesnt matter so much.

Ah sorry, missed the part about Yeo being the trade in.  Sorry BCT, disregard, I'm with you.  I too never captain a new trade in, besides Chin.

I too never captain a new trade in except for Teddy in round 13 this season
