2017 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 27

I have ditched the idea of trading Hampton in. Need a look at him first as trades are valuable and he seems a risk. By that stage it may not be worth trading with in anyway . His break-even is fairly high in any case.

Interested in Frawley, but I don't expect him to play. What do people expect his chances are and when do we think we might get an inkling? Abbey did a good job last week, so I think it unlikely they will shift M'bye there.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's very likely he is playing, with either Frawley or Mybe on the bench. Frawley is out of the 17 currently but not named anywhere for NSW Cup

For those of you with Brailey (I have Smith and McInnes) but I would be inclined to sit on Brailey 1 more week and make a decision on Cook or Hodgson. With Raiders good draw I think Hodgson could go well.

Abbey or Cotric (or Suli!) last WFB spot.

Has Abbey played himself into form? I suspect I'll spend the next few weeks playing the wrong guy.

Im looking at upgrading Brailey this week. Was always going to go Mcinnes, although after watching Mculloch rack up the flops this season im tempted to go him instead. Plus. it ensures I have someone to watch every Thursday or Friday.

Cotric all day every week. Daylight between him and the others due to involvement, confidence and tackle breaking ability. And vs the Titans should go alright.

Knights could upset the Dogs this week but surely Dogs forwards will be too good, just couldn't risk Abbey. And Suli won't see the ball and marking Feldt won't do much you would think.

I'm playing Cotric...

I wonder how much Frawley's inclusion last week affected Abbey's score

When the 19 man squad is announced and Frawley is still there we'll be closer to knowing. They play early in the week so easy to reverse the trade

Really Abbey just went well because of 1 play. Try + line break + run metres + a couple tackle busts,

Had a massive effect on Abbey's game with Frawley there. Just shows how trash Mbye's kicking game was (or lack of)

My CTR and WFB this week are

Dalker Cotric
RTS Slater Abney

Jesse Brom-Wich & Elliott White-Head  

Why Bromwich? Past performances do not guarantee future returns

Last Reserve Spot - Brailey, Yates (if playing), Stone, Frawley (if playing), Jacks, Idris, Kelly, Ponga

I'm leaning towards Frawley...

Same could be said of Cotric no? As above I'm playing both

Assuming Frawley doesn't play only one I like is Ponga if in for Coote otherwise Kelly or Jacks

This is my plan. I've said to myself if Hodgson plays 80 and gets +40 I'll likely make that trade next week

If ET continues on from last week and plays 75+ mins each week is he a must have? Could easily average 50+ playing 80 mins each week. While I already own ET he could be a potential trade in for those who are struggling to find the cash to bring in Gallen, Surgess, Mannering etc

Well without his try Cotric would still have scored 40. Whereas Abbey would be in the mid 20s.

I'm playing Cotric because I love chasing last week's score if it doesn't cost me a trade.

They were saying on that round 6 podcast that Frawley wasn't named in nsw cup either so they are expecting him to come into the 17.
I reckon they Maybe should put mbye to the centres, ditch that Montoya guy and put brenko lee to the wing?
