2016 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 25

Fanhub double triple checking their magic number calculations this week or they also totally shocked & stunned liked the rest of us that so many Roosters players could score that high.
How long till lockout is over? Perhaps they should employ the services of Milchow

I don't have price changes yet

DCE's expected back in Round 9 and if Parcell's out this week then there's the danger that he'll have to go back to sharing the hooking role and his points will go down.

with a BE of 17, surely its worth waiting as he isn't going to lose money either way.

OPEN !!!

I'm thinking of bringing in Lolohea for Walker and then when I need to get rid of Aubbs moving him to centre and hopefully can then afford a gun half

From reading the nrl.com article on Api Koroisau won't be dropped
it sounds like Dylan Walker might lose his spot to Koroisai in the halves... Parcell might keep his spot?
Walker back to centres???

LET'S TRADE!!!

I want to bring Jack Bird in but I think it's team to cash out Safiti and Mataora. If I cash out those two I bring in Bateman and one of the gun 2nd rowers.

I'm thinking Mataora > JGraham and Taylor > Lolohea via Barba. Strengthens my Centres.

Smith Parcell
Graham JDB Trbojevic Leuluia
Surgess Whitehead Taupau Mannering Cartwright Henry
Milford Barba Hastings Feeney
Lolohea Holland Auvaa Scott
Mansour Gordon Mitchell Gutherson Kennar

Yeah I'm holding him I think you'd only trade him out is if someone you wanted looked set for a huge price rise and you had to cash him out early.

It's looking more likely that Barrett can't drop Koroisau after his form in the halves but he also has to drop Matai to do it. Whether he is willing to do that remains to be seen.

Jake Friend first to crack 100+ could he become the first 600,000+ man?
Can anyone remember if a player has climbed that high before?
BTW - Congratulations to anyone who had him & captained him

Aubs got 10 points added in try saves (2 of) which helped. Right at the death when they were camped on their own line he was involved in the gang tackles on the prop (can't remember who) who tried to burrow over twice from 2m out. He also racked up a few extra tackles at the end when they were hammering his side.

Yeah, McKendry went the burrow twice.

For those who are thinking Kevans has turned the corner, I still have him and expecting a 35 again next week. He looked great but got 15-20 of those points in his 2nd stint of 8 minutes when he came on at the 72nd minute.

Also with Napa, yep, ref definitely called "nah, it was Dylan" when Freind questioned who gave away the back chat penalty.

TT ---> Suli ($150k so has already had a bit of a price jump)
Parcell ---> Friend (because I want an extra 50 points per round, thanks)

I now have $52k left in the kitty with the following squad

Smith (Friend)
Surgess, JDB
Parker, Fensom, Whitehead (Taupau, Carter)
Hastings, Taylor
Dugan, Holland
Tedesco, Barba, Mitchell

NPRs: Leuluai, Gavet, Jaifiti, C.Walker, Feeney, HHunt, Benry, Suli, Gutherson

Next targets probably Bhunt/Milf and Manners.

I guess I'll be picking up Aitken once he gets back from injury and his BE comes back down from the minus 5 points. Great bargain before the Bye rounds start

So you know how there was the never buy Mitch Aubusson rule that a lot of us broke at the start of the year and we looked like idiots with some of those sub-30 scores? Well thanks to some big scores lately he's now in the Top 5 best scoring CTR's.

1. Dugan-317 points
2. Naqaima-311
3. Roberts-292
4. Bird-283
5. Aubo-277

Well done mate.

pick up this week Mannering (back to solid scores) or Napa (DPP and good bye rounds)?

1 vote for Mannering. Multiple ins for the Roosters over the next few weeks.

Gee. This is one of those weeks where id kill for 3 trades.....
