2016 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 25

It sounds good when i say im on 816 with two to go tonight, but loses out when those two are Niko and mitchell, with no AE.
Would i be better off playing cards this season instead of infesting my mind with Nrl fantasy ?

Haha wouldn't be fantasy without some drama, have Mitchell so hoping he plays but if not then there's not much I can do now.
Add him to the pile of RTS,Parcell,BLaw injuries for the week, just another normal week here, nothing to see haha

Only positive is I get an AE of Gutherson or TMM as that's all I have left after starting 17

Can't believe after all the injuries I have managed to climb the rankings every week, though 2 trades a week aren't sustainable

Nothing official. Just whispers. Connor Watson could make his NRL debut tonight. Latrell Mitchell might be out. Nikorima to fullback?

Why would they play the wee man at f/b. Can he jump very high.

These the same people who said he was out earlier in the year due to a dislocated shoulder?

Some absolutely top level bants here today.

Reading the Roosters forum & also wackos he's on the bench & A. Papaali is 18th man. Seems he can play the utility role. Of course this could be wrong.

Well one thing about Latrell is a lot of people will have him and so if he's out a lot of people will cop the hit not just a few people. Unfortunately though most people probably have Gutherson lined up as an AE while I have Aloiai whose 20 isn't terrible but still bad. Ah well it's just been the round for late withdrawals

I have Ferg as reserve. If this pans out & J-Nik plays f/b would you reserve him or Ferg.

TMM hasn't played yet either so just put the R on him if your setup makes it possible.

@ Bren. Is it you that has Barbarella and wants to trade him as soon as he's peaked. I want to do the same but as things currently stand he has a keepers average in the WFB position. If he keeps this up would you still trade him. In previous weeks he looked so volatile, like he could get single figures any week but yesterday he showed real interest and looks like racking up consistent stats throughout the whole game not just in 1 or 2 plays.

He played a bit of FB when he was at the Broncos and killed it. Personally I always rated him the pick of the brothers.

Yeah it was me however I have more important trades to worry about now. Trying to select on which two I trade in next week between Hunt, Milf, Mannering and SJ will keep me busy.

@bluetige, I run with latrell in my starting line up so all good.
Worse case 35 or whatever TMM dishes up, or he plays and scores less than 35.

Some people out there would have copped one Reserve out there already so perhaps I am better off he doesn't play, but I'm a good bastard

Any idea what price Anthony Mundine might be in 2018 ?

Could be a good POD (don't tell him I said that or might get called racist)

Thanks mate, you've answered my other question. Now I'm hoping he does play f/b in a way.

Not sure if serious or trying to make a funny.

Remember all the talk and speculation about the ex player wanting to come back..

Oh I saw that I meant him actually playing another NRL game is almost a snowflakes chance in hell.

Update: Latrell Mitchell looks absolutely fine on the field at half time of the Holden Cup #NRLRoostersPanthers
