Really worried about bringing Thompson in looking at their upcoming draw

Storm away
Eels home
Broncos home
Storm home

How much money will he really make in the next 4 weeks and is he even worth bringing in?

Have Katoa and only 7k left....trade SST for AFB and Katoa for either Thompson or Isaako? Or maybe even winterstein? Help!?

I was too busy looking at the good sort of a Missus you have!

I actually thought you must have named your dog Pen Y Fan when you said you were walking it

Suffice to say there's punching above your weight, and then there's Welshy and his Missus.

Mearcats wrote:Further to the idea of loopholing Katoa this week... Sharks play Thursday night so if you left Katoa in your starting 13 and then had say Isaako in your 14-17 he would become your player to move into Katoa spot. I wonder what importance that leaves around your 18th man? You could potentially double loophole that position by utilising the rolling lockout right?

Haven't read all posts since this but surely we need all payers scoring points or making money ATM. Loopeholing this early is just a short term thing with no long term gain??

Yep and with Nofo in the wings.

Fixtures is the place to play outside backs against. Same reason Katoa got a firm number 21 jersey in round 1 against the cowboys for me.

Will get Thompson if Lolohea ever goes down and miss the cash for now

That’s not fair to the man, the legend.

From what I know of Welshy, she’s a lucky lass

She's the one punching pal

Bearing in mind I was about 4 stone lighter because we had the boy

Hi Foina, thanks for lifting lockout and welcome to the forum.

Question?  I noticed you abbreviate your name to Phi.  Can I ask if you are actually Phil?  Phil from FanHub?  Legit this seems very coincidental that you took over FanHub in 2015, the exact same time Phil reportedly moved to run FanHub in England.  If so, sorry for all the abuse in 2014.  You did a bang up job back then and clearly still are judging on the success of this year's la+unch.

Hi SI!

LOL that rhymes! You must get that alot!

Unfortunately, I am not Phil from England. You see, we both spell our names differently. He spells his P-H-I and I spell mine P-H-Y.

It is very similar and completely coincidental though, so I can understand the confusion, but thank you for noticing!

I did, however, DM your apology to Phyl from England via the postal service, so make sure to keep refreshing any fantasy related sites for a response!

Though I find it incredibly hard to believe that someone as sweet and charming as you would say anything that would warrant an apology!

Kindest regards,

- Phee

Dick pic sent!

Nah you've got me all misunderstood, not interested in the missus, looking for proof that Welshy is in fact a person and not just a really terrible bot, designed to stink at fantasy and antagonist me with poor taste in players.

Liu for Kikau, RFM or Mini Papa?

I missed Suli's 50+ Rd 1 last year, but picked him up Rd 2 and played him for like 10 I think it was..

He managed to hover around a 30 average and made pretty good cash. I think Thompson could do just aswell.

Even if Nofoa returns, Malakai might not be guaranteed a place. Cleary did rotate a bit between Malakai and Suli once Malakai arrived, so it seems neither of them overly impressed.

If there's more behind the scenes with Nofoa, then Thompson's pretty secure.

Looks like i will be using a trade getting Kikau in then.

Don't do that please.
This year there should be two extra rules.
#1 If you didn't start with Kikau you are barred from trading him in.
#2 If you didn't start with Currey you are barred from trading him in.

Get onto it please FiFi

team feels much more balanced with the trades

Lichaa - Aubbs
Katoa - Kennar for DPP over Thompson

Smith
Lodge, Fifita
Whitehead, RFM, Griffin
Croft, Cartwright
Aubbs, Issako
Inglis, Tedesco, Ponga

Cook

Rochow
Kikau

Havilii
Kennar
Nicholls
Croker

Looking a comfortable B that one.

Buy the minutes!

GreenMachine wrote:I’m not sure what his BE is, but don’t think it really matters. Crichton looks a “get asap”. Any bunnies supporters think otherwise?

I think pre season we got caught up a bit in moving club next year (and Murray being value) but he is about as essential as cam smith. Belts out another 58 with about 20pts in minus

Agreed. No chance Crichton gets frozen out just because he is heading to the roosters. He was even the player on my 2018 membership card. I avoided him at the start because I couldn’t see any value and figured he’d be hard pressed to beat his output from last year. He should still be one of the top fantasy players by year end so the sooner you can get him in, the better.

hi guys..new to the forum, pretty new to fantasy

Just quickly here is my team

COOK
JBROM GRAHAM
BROWN JTURBO NAS
CROFT CARTY
COTRIC KENNAR
RAPANA DUFTY ISAAKO
RFM KIKAU HAVILI SST
ROCHOW KATOA LLEILUA NICHOLLS

124K in bank

Torn between upgrading SST+Katoa to Griffin+IPapalii or getting Ponga in asap before he is to expensive..If I wait another week and he has another big game and scores 60+ is his pricetag going to offset the increase in buying 2 cashcows and be a waste of a trades? still learning how this works but it hurt like razors cuts to the scrotum in sea of lemon juice watching him against Manly after swapping him at the last minute

Personally, I'd save the Lichaa trade. He won't be leaking cash and seems stable. Seems a safe bet until aother decent option pops up. Save the trade

@GreenMachine yep, I was thinking that. Liu > RFM

Next question. KNik. What the eff do I do with that plodder. Can see the cows cleaning up the broncos but then it’s Tigers (probs still tough) and Titans (with a Wallace). Not sure what I should do.
