2017 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 22

Good news and as expected for RTS and his owners.

Sticking to my one trade of Siro to Whitehead this week. COME AT ME, POINTS!

Might have a squizzy at Cherrington than if Capewell is on the outer

yeah, dunno what i'm thinking there. back to square one i guess.

need to find an appealing frf/2rf. one doesnt exist.

Are you trading out Siro, for what its worth he was my 4th reserve (and I can't rely on him now) so I went sideways to Addin Fonua Blake. Skipped Chricton and Capewell.

Did some analysis on Front Rower value in pre season and I had Vaughan, AFB, Wallace and McGuire as value picks. Watched Fifita play close to 80 mins in All Stars and had to have him, ended up with none of those 4.
Have since traded in Wallace week 1, McGuire week 2 and now AFB. Should score around 40 points I'm hoping. Not going after Vaughan now that I will be able to get Jbrom cheaper for around the same price as Vaughan started at.

Cherrington likely to be the one to miss out with the reshuffle of Chricton going back to the bench mate.

Smith (McInnes)
Fifita, Faufusi
Surgess, Yates, SiMat (Whitehead, Hess)
Johnson, Lamb
Talakai, Moga (Kelly)
Tedesco, RTS, Cotric

Possible AEs: Ese'ese, MCK, Elgey, Suli, RJennings
OUT: Hayne, Ipaps, Field (I assume)

Trades: 30
Cash: $19k
Rank: 1,644

nah, Moeroa. I am looking to generate bulk cash so Moeroa -> cheapie would put 170/180k in the bank.

Have Siro for the moment, it will be him who is upgraded over the next couple of weeks.

Moeroa -> AFB does feel a bit sideways to me, but if he keeps scoring 40's it doesn't look so bad.

nobody mentioned Ryan Simpkins as a cash cow, something I am missing?
Played 50 mins, perhaps in an injury-impacted squad, but basement price and looks to be top of the pecking order for bench forwards. Better security than Capewell and could get solid 30s.

He won't be in the 17 when Peats returns. He is currently there to spell Roberts at hooker.

I suppose you could take a punt on more injuries at the titans haha.

True but I would like to see him in over Rochow.

My team for this week:

Smith Brailey
McGuire Wallace F. Kaufusi Ese ese
JDB Surgess Aubusson Hess Yates Winterstein
SJ Lamb Jacks Elgey
Moga R.Jennings Kelly Idris
RTS Slater Cotric Suli Phythian

Will be looking to address my CTRs next week and bring in Whitehead Jbrom and McInnes in the next 2-3 weeks. Have 373k in the kitty. Any suggestions?

Copley is in this week so McQueen is back in the forwards. Grevsmuhl will be registered soon so he'll be taking a bench spot next week

Tetevano,Simpkins,Hoare are all 150k cheapies but on the cusp of not hanging around..

The next tier of 'cash outs' are all around the 200k mark but don't really help you cash out and have similar risk.

Need to find someone to fill this slot as with Smat still in 2rf, if I move him next week then the 150k players now cost 20k more.

Other option is to bring in a DPP nuffie Hlf/2RF, when Elgey needs to be cashed out move him up there.
Downside is he doesn't make money but is one less AE worry I guess

I'm doing this!

Also saves a trade down the track.

May from the Panthers.

Only 1 trade this week, leaves me with cash to bring in whitey and mcinnes whenever I like.

Hopefully the likes of wallace and bromwich get close enough to be a straight swap.

They've just signed Grevsmuhl as well, who'll get a run soon enough

I did see you mention that previously and I am still considering it. Always reluctant to kill of a spot so early but spending 50k more it to possibly happen anyways is the same thing really.

Tyrone May, 1028 owners as well

I can afford to do it though, at the moment I have no red dots in my forwards.

You wouldn't want two or more.

Still important to have cash makers in your reserves at this stage of the season.

That team is awesome mate.

Let's say Capewell keeps a spot as a bench forward, playing around with the price predictor, he would need to score on avg 17-18 to hold his value by origin. Too much to ask? He's extremely versatile so any injuries he's right back in you would think and almost certainly plays origin. I'm just trying to make a case because I've currently got hardly any round 12 players.

Edit: Actually come to think of it, if he stays on the bench he could lose value and would be a good pick up later on before origin. Carry on

Smith Brailey
McGuire Vaughan Wallace Yates
Jdb Cordner Hess Kaufusi SMat Winterstien
Norman Jacks Elgey Hingano
Jennings Moga Kelly Idris
Rts Turbo Cotric Suli Hayne

Will just hang on to the cheap backs hope they each hit a big week and ride some price rises
