2017 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 38

Idris to Faumanino or whatever his name is could be a goer if the rumours are true. Even though in that case it could just be one game and out with Gray named on an extended bench. Hampton to MWZ via CNK (See he's useful for something) could also be on the cards but Hampton has a BE of 6 so I'd like to squeeze every last drop out of him I can.

Basically any trades I have problems with revolve around my NPR centres Idris and Rennings. Figuring out what to do with them will be tricky.

I notice Sironen named to start.

Was he any chance at being disciplined over his door-smash in the pub incident - or is that just going to go away quietly?

Fuimaono was just something I tossed out there this morning, looks like he is no closer to getting a spot than any other week. Now with Gray likely to return, would be even slimmer.

Not sure if this has been asked but are the green dots like way more bright than they were before? Or is it because I didn't check Fantasy for a week

Pick 3. RTS/Slater/Tedesco/Hayne - my thoughts are the first three.

Then pick 2. Whoever you left out/Cook/CHN.

I'm thinking RTS/Slater/Tedesco/Cook/CHN.

I also just reversed my trades of Lamb -> Walker and Kelly -> MWZ. As I feel they can probably wait a week. Reassess next week.

Keep naming Hayne in the centres please. This will be week 2 that he lines up there, right? The week after Origin he will have played 4 games there if it continues. That would be DE-LIGHT-FUL.

Is it too early to jump on Tohu Harris.

I am really reluctant to keep Vaughan after his low minute low score efforts.

I just feel something has changed

Not a good week for my team selection wise. Hess, CHN on the bench, Ponga not in the 17, Idris injured. I might be forced to keep & play Lamb this week. I'll also be forced to keep my crap ctrs re Kelly & Talakai. With Gray on the extended bench I could even lose Talakai. So it's obvoius I need a new plan lol.

Go a few Q's for you guys:

Which 3 2nd rows would u start? Surgess, Sutton, Crichton, Whitehead, Kaufusi

Which 3 FB/W do you start RTS, Slater, Semi, Hayne

Which 2 1/2s start Milf, SJ, Frawley, C Walker

Would Brailey be 1 of your Rs, if you could choice from the remaining 5 players you haven't started from above?

Who are your 4 Rs?

Who would you play this week Suli or Moga.

What are Hess and Weinterstiens BE's please. Originally was trading Weint but could trade Hess instead, neither will be in 17 both were going at some stage

Looking at some trade options:

A) Lamb - Frawley (+195k)
B) Lamb - Frawley + Wallace - Brown (+159k)
C) Lamb - SJ + Wallace - Fai (+180k)
D) Lamb - SJ + Yates - Fai (+6k)

Any standout?

I would drop Semi. And choose from Brailey/Frawley for last reserve

That's currently what I have (Semi/Frawley out)

Surges Crighton Whitehead

Drop Semi

Walker SJ

From those listed? If it's only from those players you could have just asked which one doesn't make the 17, it doesn't matter if starting or reserving they all score the same the only thing that matters is who plays the later games as they should always be your reserves in case of late game changes

1) Surgess, Whitehead, Chrichton (I think you hope last rd was a blip, otherwise Run Faufusi Or Sutton if Tohu stays on the bench and there is some unknown as to who's minutes he takes).

2) RTS, Slater, Semi (only because its Hayne vs Storm edge D, compared to Semi vs Roosters)

3) Milf, SJ 

4) So from the above, you want to name the 4 R's out of  Sutton, Kauf, Semi/Hayne, Frawley, CWalker, Brailey? Tough call, I'd say Sutton, CWalker for sure, then probably Brailey and Kauf. However whatever you pick here will likely be wrong so better to accept that you might not pick the perfect lineup now and just go with what your gut tells you.

I think maybe Suli, Bunnies defend like U12's at times this year.

A or D)

Wallace has had 1 bad game all season and that was an injury. He could be a keeper. Especially given his DPP.

Lamb and Frawley could score about the same and the extra $$ is handy for a good upgrade.

D) It's SJ.

I'm getting married in a couple of months and I've bought the wedding party a wooden carved statue each from Bali. Any chance you could bring them back for me ?

I'll be a couple of Islands away from Bali... I could swing by with the Falcon and pick them up on the way back, there's plenty of space in the cargo hold...

Thank you mate, I had considered Hayne against the Storm may not be the best.

Just unsure on the Frawley and Brailey spot.

I'm considering leaving Sutton out?

I'm thinking SST in for CHN.
- Good byes
- In the starting side with full strength forward pack
- Likely 80mins in the games where Cordner and Guerra(maybe) are missing
