2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 17

Cheers lads. Decisions to be made

SST and Murray are the same price at the moment - I have SST in my team .... should I be swapping them over or am I wasting a transfer to follow the herd? I'm worried that SST has no kicking points and if he has an average game this week and Murray kicks on I won't be able to afford the swap next week

Murray has a much higher ceiling for sure.

Does anyone think NuBrown might just be some sort of backup for Marshall Jr. Not likely but I mean, maybe he's just there incase Marshall flops hard and he can get hooked. I doubt it though, just thinking of reason not to trade Lichaa.

I started with him, so I'm lucky in that sense, but totally agree with you. I think people see the score next to a players name and instantly think "Omg got to get him in my team, such a good player"

Well done starting with him but I wouldn't be bringing him in if I didn't

I was going to start with him because I thought he'd be more of a force in the Broncos as he is just what he needs, but wussed out in the end.  I'm going to trade Lichaa to him, but looking at the coin also is a big part of it.

I think Ese is a better long term option than TPJ

Don't know if its been mentioned but I know a few had Taka hanging around in their squads.
Gone for a number of weeks, he is a sell for sure.

Hopefully next week I can make one or two trades and then just sit back for a few weeks and watch my team make money. Then again this is fantasy and nothing ever goes to plan

Any thoughts on who to play in the 17 between RFM Griffin and Kikau? Am leaning Kikau simply because the Doggies are so rubbish.

If you've got all 3 of them, it has to be Griffin surely

Who to captain this week, I feel like punishing CS9 but I bet he will get something like 70 if I do

What's happened to Pearce apart from club change. Kick metres down or something?

Griffin, every day.

Can I have some opinions wise men?  What should I do;

Smith
Lodge Arrow
Murray Whitehead RFM
Croft Carty
Mitchell Kennar
Teddy Thompson Ponga

Cook Lichaa Griffin Kikau

Nicholls Havilli Croker Isaako

A) Lichaa - TPJ, Croft - Cleary (10K left over)
B) Lichaa - Macca, Croft - Doueihi (261K left over)
C) Lichaa - TPJ, Croft - Doueihi (615K left over for later upgrades)

I'm leaning towards C, then my team will be a a killer position to make money. Could also go Nicholls to TPJ and keep Lichaa I guess.

I think I like B. Macca must be a pretty big POD among the higher ups. If TPJ falters you may be left kicking yourself.

Just my thoughts.

Cheers mate. Macca is definitely appealing and he's locked into 80 minutes every week. SO hard to make these decisions. I don't really see TPJ flopping but I see your thinking there.
