2016 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 29

@Stinkbug - Go into the league table and click the "overall" tab at the top
Or...if you're just interested in your weekly ranking look at your profile pic on the right...It has your club, overall and weekly ranking
(I dont think you can see your opponents weekly rank tho)

Thoughts on my Head to Head?

Teams are pretty similar...He's up by 44 with Bhana, BLaw, Dugan and CP13 to go
I've got Whitehead, Cartwright, Leilua, Fensom and JBrom

Going to be a close one I think.....

I think you have him covered.

Guth 85 and Graham 75? Those scores seem a bit far fetched to me.

At least Guth will make some serious coin. Glad I didn't play Gordon, he's a definite cashout next round.

I went Bhana and JTrbo this week. But I would recommend that it is in your best interests to NOT do what I do, because I am exceptionally shit at this

I have Rankin 61 and Gutho 85 on my NPR,s bench and a big 46pts from Ted and Flash in my 17 gotta love this game..................

Vote for fantasy player of the year in the sports section......
I haven't seen any of the two games so far so I can't vote

Last week my back three combined made the same as JBrom and I managed to get over 1000pts - I don't rely on the WFB's for much these days...

Just think long term in that the NPR's are making you money in order to get some solid guns

just caught up reading all the night owl posts. Many complaints about Gordon and rightly so. He is 1st choice fullback but cannot perform anywhere near as good as 2nd choice. The coach should make the right choice by playing Gutho at fullback all the time and move Gordon to the wing so I can trade him out.

Like most people I'm only keeping him for the byes and last nights shit performance had 2 follow on effects to my team. Not only did he score shit but Mau ended up playing CTR's and hence only scored about 7 points after half time. Also, Gutho (sitting in my NPR's) will rise in price so much that he will do more for my team cashing him out at his peak then he will likely do if I keep him for the buys. That is of course if Gordon stays at No. 1.

Gutho killed me in my H2H, thought I had my opponent covered as he had so many red dots everywhere and forced to play ctr of gutho/Holland......then that.


Losing ranks because people played gutho because of no choice hurts

Ahhhh Gutherson. 85 points.

At least Semi updated to 40+. Can't complain as he probably scored more than T-Turbo would've had he been playing

Dropped about 500 places but should make that back up throughout the weekend hopefully

Lol this has been a bad week for me, surges/mannering injured, Gordon 13, Gutho in nprs.....off to a great start.

Mostly just annoyed with myself, 2hrs before kick off had Gutho in over Gordon as, like many on here, I thought he was due a try or 2. However, switched to Gordon as I felt he was the more "reliable" with more consistent scores in high 20s and low 30s, I didn't want to have to rely on gutho getting a try, LB or a few TB to score that.....oh well what could of been. Could of been 252/4 but instead 180/4....

Big upgrade for Hopoate to 41. I swear he gets points for doing fuck all but I won't complain. One of my better decisions going him over Gordon. Gutherson sitting in my npr's. What's the deal with Morris & Holland swapping sides. The try Morris scored should of been his and damn the hand of J. Graham it cost Mbye & Holland big points. So Norman downgrades to 68. I'm still confident Widdop can beat 68 against a Warriors reserve grade side but I'm still not sure on my trades yet. Updated to 176/4 (Surgess, Mbye, Holland & Hopoate)

I think J-Moz swapped sides with Holland to strengthen the defence on their right side so that it wouldn't be a rookie pairing of Holland/Phillips up against Jennings/Semi

Any 130k wingers that will get a run during origin? Gonna dump Gordon and run Fergs in 17 (crap score either way but can't look at gordon any more), can't afford an upgrade to the likes of CLaw without double trading.

Like many, I expected Gordon to average 40 and run to end of byes, but not worth it given his current output (even discounting his last game). Will just pick up a 130k wfb/hlf who will play byes and use the cash for my planned round 13 trades of Parcell to Peats and Merrin to DeBalin.

I got stuck into some no-no juice if that's what you're asking.

So my 4 reserves are D. Saifiti, Aubussen, Hastings, Kennar.
My npr's are Gutherson & red dots.

To get Gutherson's a.e, I just might use 1 trade this week D. Saifiti to Asiata (who isn't playing & is 18th man) to get Gutherson's a.e. It's like a loophole but better. Thoughts.

Only if it's something you were probably going to do anyway.
