2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 14

Shame Dugan has been switched to FB so early on. Was hoping he would lose a bucket load of cash then be given the #1 jumper.

I thinking of placing Katoa in my 13, then replace him with Thompson with  Isaako in EMG. Since  Isaako plays first, if he gets a good score I may roll back my Thompson trade which would bring Katoa back into my 13 forcing Isaako's score as a EMG. (only winger in 14-21). Does roll the dice a little but if  Isaako get a meat pie or 2 it gives me option ( I think it will work )

Won't Katoa be locked??

Along with every other man and his dog I'm planning on bringing in Thompson this week, I'm just not sure if it should be for leuilua or godinet. Leuilua could be fantasy gold when Friz inevitably goes down injured but godinet should have a guaranteed 40 mins a week. Help.

Smith
Rochow SST
Merton, RFM, Murray
Croft, Douile
Kennar, BJ
Teddy, Dufty, Pings

Cook, Lichaa, Griffin, Kikau
Godinet, Leuilua, croker, Cartwright

Katoa will lock at kickoff

No that just gets you VC score instead. Katoa isnt a good loophole, plays the first game and isn't a dual. I have traded him out for Greg L at Parramatta, to use as my loophole each week!

Dual player with late games each of the first 9 weeks, that should play round 13, and score well when he does play. Going to have some fun with it!

Honestly mate this is deadset crazy. We're already 4 cows down on previous years and you not only want to waste a space but you're wasting a trade from non player to non player. Reverse it now while you still can.

How is he not a good loophole when I get to choose 2 from Kennar Hiku Isaako for the short term?

Trust me, it is much better when they are dual and play late in the round, so you can then decide where the hole in the team is to get the right players in.

This week, I get to see Carty and Hiku play and see their scores. If Hiku does great and Carty does bad I can select Hiku to be my replacement.

If Carty does better than Hiku or I don't want either score, I can see Kennar play, then decide if I want Carty's score, or Kennar's score or neither score and get Croker's score instead.

Couldn't get close to that scenario with Katoa there

After all that you have been thru this week Loomer you must like living on the edge.

Good luck with your battle with failhub.

I can't wait until StormTrooper96 and Chewie have a disagreement.

Turns on tv, pours wine, opens nrlfantasy.com.au. Must be time for Rd 2.

Hasta la Victoria siempre!

Have fun testing out those exploits guys, especially when it doesn't seem like you understand how EMEs work

Damn it, Panthers play before Tigers....I think the idea was right, just poor planning.

Play Isaako or Thompson?

Katoa not being DPP is irrelevant when you have 4 DPP WFB/CTR in your 21 already. You're overcomplicating matters

It's nuts. Even if they get it right how often do people get it right when trying to guess scores of backs?

Should I Hiku to Kennar?



I have Thompson already and Hiku/Kennar will be in my starting 13.

Not even Failhub knows how it works
