2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 17

I'm thinking of bringing in Api as a POD in the halves. He looks the goods this year. I know he won't score tries like that every game but do you think he can maintain at least 50s?

We can collate the stats ourselves from the TV feed. We always know when one of our players has busted a tackle or saved a try.

Get Rabs to collate them from his fishing site!

Might be the odd guy making 50 tackles but still roughly more accurate than Danesh

He looks a real powerhouse but I don’t fancy the <40mins factor

Yes. It was me who had Benji Jnr. and traded him for Douehie Now I’m thinking of bginging him back in. Lol. Fuck.

The BJ news is really annoying me.
I had him out for Doohey, not sure if I'll be near a computer to check on team lists an hour before the match.

If it was bad enough to pull him from the field on a cab, surely he can't back up - right?

Croft to doughy or DCE?

Ligi Sao or Murray

Murray everyday of the week and twice on Sundays

Morning all

Any ideas with this lot. Everyone seems to be useful and making cash!! Except Croft.

Smith,
SST, Arrow
Merrin, Carty, RFM
Walker, Croft
Aitken, Hiku
Teddy, Ponga, Thompson

Cook, Griffin, Lodge, Rochow
Kikau, Havili, Kennar, Nichols

66k and currently ranked 557, would like to get higher

Nicholls is pretty much done as a cash cow.
I'd consider bringing in Doueihi/JMK/Robinson for him

No viable halves to upgrade Croft to without a big downgrade elsewhere
I think if you don't trust him, best bet IMO is Cartwright to halves and bring Murray in. (that would probably also mean bringing in Doueihi/JMK/Croker so that you have cover in the halves)

JMKs job security must be pretty unknown at this stage. Would like to take the punt on him just not overly sure he's around long enough.

Douehi obviously the guy ya want but ARey back in a few rounds most likely.

I'm definitely going to get Murray for Croft. Best to do it early and I'm already preparing for a Croft retaliation.

Unrelated but is Ramien worth picking up in draft? Aubbs has gone all arachnid on me.

I've seen enough TPJ to be sold for sure. There's room in that Broncos team for a forward to step up for more work, especially a front rower. Looks like a beast and if he keeps it up they'll be stupid to not continue to utilise him more because he looks a legitimate difference maker.

if you had to get one this week, would it be Murray or TPJ. First big split decision of the year.

Looking at the following trades....

Croft and Watson out for Murray and Doueihi.

I was looking at SJ, but was like $5k short. Could also look at TPJ.

Thoughts on these trades?
SST > TPJ
Nicholls > Doueihi

Smith
TPJ Arrow
Whitehead RFM Fitzgibbon
Williams Townsend
Hiku Mitchell
Tedesco Ponga Thompson

Cartwright Cook Griffin Doueihi
Kikau Havilli Kennar Croker

Next week Murray will come in for someone

Croft and Nicholls to TPJ and Doueihi for me this week even though he's only got two more games before Reynolds comes back, then will prob just go Havilli to Murray next week.

Will ride TPJ to Gallen but the trade may not need to happen if he goes well enough.

Don't understand the TPJ hype. If he doesn't score that try he gets a 40 odd and noone rushes to trade him in. He is one I will be giving a miss. Not enough cash left in him to bring in as a cow averaging mid 40s and scores not high enough to be a keeper.

I'm in the exact same boat with targets. Have opted for Murray and Douehi

It's possible that I can wait a week for Murray and use SST to bring him in.
