NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 67 - Final charges and Late season shuffles

I have captained Yeo the last two weeks and I'm considering Hynes (back at 7) or Ponga

Final round. Had fun shifting my players around.
Playing 16 (again) this week.
When will I learn to save trades.

Assuming Roosters win and Sharks playing after, Panthers still need to win to get the home final so Yeo not huge risk?

Ponga or Watson probably my other best alternatives. Have 19 green dots which is actually a first in my time of fantasy that I might be able to gain ranks in final 2 weeks

You'd hope. I guess the concern is a blowout and he gets pulled early. I'm tempted to go Ponga in a do or die match

It really is the year for a yolo captain in round 27 isnt it

Need a half. Is it too soon to buy & put the C on Hynes?

Jagged the last two weeks with the C on Yeo. Can he do the triple?

Too soon? If you dont buy him this week you wont be able to next week

Can still use him in Fantasy Finals though!

I could certainly talk myself into Watson. Team list looks good for him, only concern is a blow out.

Did Ben Hunt for last trade and captain last year. Don’t think I can YOLO more than that

EDIT: realised captain was actually Fifita, bailed on Hunt. Which went about as good as captaining Fifita this week will

Watson needs as many mins as he can get at hooker to prep for finals series. Is what im telling myself

Would be hoping for 60 odd at hooker then 20 at lock I reckon. No Butcher helps a lot.

It's definitely sub-optimal compared to Yeo but meh I'm 3k.

Ponga the exciting pick, last game of the season could either be a very fun watch or a real shit end to the fantasy season.

How much do we believe in Storm v Broncos. Could go (C)Hughes if feeling frisky

I think Hughes scores 65-77 in 72-76 mins

Jayden hunt, josh rogers, and cobbo* are our left edge. Hughes will banner.


*Cobbo is obviously a good player but hes absolutely not on the field mentally atm

I should probably think about Hughes over Hynes or Ponga with that in mind. Locks in first too, like Haas would have, so no fucking around waiting.

Have Yeo but captaining Hynes as a hail mary this week

Pretty sure I went Ponga a few years ago and he scored like 18 and I tanked out of the top 1000 in the very last game.

Watson is my potential trade in this week along with possibly Luai or Lucas.

I think Watson goes pretty big this week.
