2017 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 32

No CHN for those who have him.

Capewell to wing also

That's some shit news for CHN owners.. Tim Browne? Seriously?

Hopefully Hampton's 19 isn't suddenly looking like a great score for onthebeatpete now

This 2 trades a week thing is pretty shite. I can't even call it 2 trades a week because you'd be all out with about 2 months still left if you did that.

I have 26 left currently, so it's not like I want to make 4 trades a week, but being in a position where I feel like I'm being left behind if I don't cash Suli out for a red dot Jordan Drew this week, just so I can use next week's 2 trades on Jacks out and an upgrade elsewhere.

I avoided trading Kelly out instead yesterday, so I guess I'll just hold Suli. Probably going to regret having too much depth and $ on the bench though with this piss weak 2 trades restriction.

Paulo onto bench means Brailey won't play 80 mins I'd say. Brailey maybe 10-15 mins rest.

Who's your "final 17" this year

Wrote it down today actually, also there is a difference between what the best Final 17 is and what my best Final 17 is. As there are definitely a list of guys who could easily end up in contention to being better than what I end up with.

C. Smith (C. McInnes)
A. Fifita, J. Graham
J. de Belin, S. Burgess, P. Gallen (S. Mannering, J. Taumalolo, J. Trbojevic)
C. Norman, S. Johnson
S. Mata’Utia, M. Aubusson
R. Tuivasa-Scheck, J. Tedesco, B. Slater

A. McCullough, J. Rapana, E. Whitehead, N. Cleary, J. Rapana, B. Thompson, J. Leilua, J. McGuire, R. James, T. Trbojevic, J. Dugan are all definite Final 17 candidates. However the team I am aiming for and my "Final 17" will hopefully look a lot like the above. Of which I currently have 9 and plans to bring in Whitehead and potentially Thompson soon who I would make season keepers unless I end up with trades in the bank later.

How many trades do you have and how many is a safe number to have at this stage. I have 26.

I've saved 2 trades & have 24 left. Trying to save more but there's some good players like Crichton & Frawley that I don't have

My main team doesnt have CHN but my second team that i pay no attention to that's doing better than my main team has him. Might trade him to capewell.

Next question, and I feel 26 trades is comfortable. You can make 1 per Round essentially with a couple here and there. I would try and keep around that pace so you have some up your hand for late season injuries.

So 26 is decent then by the sounds of it. Didnt want to use trades this week but whitehead and niko looking tempting. Plus surgess and possibly bodene out.

I used my 2 trades for those exact two, frawley and crichton.

Thanks random.

If Sione is going to start scoring 50's I might have to re-buy him.

I haven't saved any trades I'm burning through them. I am pretty happy with most of my team to be in my final 17

Gonna have to start not trading

Me too, I am close to not trading but then I have guys like K. Bromwich, C. Sironen, CHN, Elgey, Jacks and Lamb at the moment and I am thinking downgrade one upgrade the other and work through them to get my fifnal 17 early.

Not trading isn't all it's cracked up to be
I've spent most of the year hovering between 5-10k but I'm well set for byes
Aiming for 14/15 for round 12 and 17 for round 13 if Fualau plays

Exactly like I'm hoping Yates and Jacks don't get named so they're not urgent trade outs for me. I'll keep Rennings. For at least the first bye of he lasts in the team that long.

In my final 17 that I want I already have

Macca
Brown (maybe Kaufusi)
Gallen, Tolo, Gillett, ET
Johnson (maybe Norman)

Slater, Tommy T, RTS

All I want to get now is Whitehead for Kbrom. Surgess for Simpkins
After Orgin Dwalker for Teddy and trade Cotric for either BJ or Croker.
Cook to Smith after the byes.
Not sure who my other front rower should be. Maybe McGuire cause I'm a broncos fan.

Paulo only came in because of injury to Beale. May not even get on the field.

I reckon between 10 - 15 mins he'll play

So who wins here?

I reckon Sharks in a close one

Anyone else getting locked out of fantasy. It just tells me they have dropped the ball. Access through the app on my phone but it is quite frustrating.

Better information can be accessed on the laptop. Been like this for at least the last few hours.

They know we're onto them...

But seriously, I haven't had any trouble today but I haven't tried on my laptop for a few hours
