NRL Fantasy 2018 Thread Part 24

Does JT > DCE via Carty > Maloney ring any alarm bells?

The money saved by Matterson is huge and would leave me 230k for future use.

Surely his score last week can be discounted, the Roosters aren't gonna be that hopeless again?

My worry is that 60 minutes looks like more of the norm for matterson. Probably average low 40s if that continues? Hmm. Fits my team well though

I know this has been asked and answered before, but... How can I see how much $ a player's price has changed by over the season on the NRLF web page?

Im also looking to trade out Whitehead (a couple others have mentioned it), I think he's been a nice little pickup to start the season but I have a hunch he has peaked in price (his stats were boosted massively by tries to start the season) and am looking to take the risk of switching him to Taumalolo now.

At least with Matterson in the halves it would be nice to have a solid 40-45 next to Walker when he has another below par performance.

With the chance of a 50+ every now and again

Have you flicked over to the trades page on the desktop. Has how much the player has lost/gained this week and overall.

Someone asked about how Merrin's switch to prop would affect him... It feels like he has already been playing at prop, particularly last week anyway. I don't really know, perhaps someone can comment? I've ditched him already though...

Legend. Can see it now!

So Whitehead has made $80k (averaged 48.5), Tolo lost $100k (averaged 47) can switch between the two for $130k but IMO potentially gain 5 -15 points per game on average as I see Whitehead averaging 40-45 for the season and think Tolo is more like 50-55. Feels like a decent move - just needs the attacking stats to balance out between the two.

My moves this week as it stands are:
Cartwright to Maloney
Whitehead to Tolo

Starting 17 looking pretty solid:
Cook, Griffin
Lodge, Fifita, Rochow
Taumaolo, Murray, Arrow, RFM, Kikau
DCE, Maloney
Hiku, Inglis
Ponga, Tedesco, Dufty.

+ 4 shitters in the EMGs (actually they aren't too bad and will be cashing a couple out over the next two weeks to upgrade whoever peaks first out of Griffin, Lodge, RFM, Rochow

No worries buddy. I am trading Merrin to JFH

macca (c)
kikau arrow (V)
rochow murray hess
maloney Dc
inglis isaako
ted ponga thompson

cook stimson griffin havili surgess crocker godinet katoa 46k ITB
Traded maloney in for carty and Merrin for Hess.
My plan is to bring in young jensen next week for havili net possibly 100k then surgess to cam smith and then week after trade stimson and bring surgess back in cashing out godinet. It will be tight money wise but should scrape in.. happy to run that team for a while with only injury trades.....and worry about maloney when cleary comes back. what do you guys think about this if all goes to plan ? injurys could kill the whole thing but im feeling lucky

Trading out Merrin & Carty

Option A - DCE & JFH

Option B - Morgan & Arrow.

Thoughts??

Thanks Wolfie, I was going to blame my daughter for using my card to buy cosmetics from ENGLAND but she is innocent, I have been hacked

somehow but the card is cancelled and I may get the coin back but I am at the mercy of the Commonwealth Bank so .................

Hey mate I work for a bank (not Commonwealth) so I am very familiar with this sort of thing. With our disputes amounts under $100 are refunded 99% of the time unless the disputes team finds anything dodgy going on. It's very common with paypal and itunes to start with a small transactions before you start seeing some larger ones.

Man, people jumping off Whitehead already? He's looked really good. Wasn't great last week but neither was the whole team.

How did I never pick up the fact that you're a kiwi?!?!

I’m thinking of bringing in SJ to partner dce too, my other option is maybe mbye and a good centre?
Would be good to have sj and dce tho

Please do explain what this “good centre” is you speak of

Milchcow wrote:

Choosing a target based on this week's BE seems shortsighted

What if SJ goes big and Koro has a quiet one. Will you swap again top make a few extra bucks?

Breakevens should be used to determine when to trade, not who to trade, unless you are keen on burning trades every week chasing $$

Very valuable fantasy lesson that

Because I am not from Auckland so the warriors aren’t my first team

Will give you a clue, Issac Luke, Elijah Taylor

N.brown to JFH

Are these trades worth it? Or should I stick with Brown

Seen a few people going off him and I think that’s nuts.

Completely out of sorts Smith is one thing for his money. But I think Brown is clearly in the Gun 13 of choice if you had to choose a team of non origin round 13 players. Definite keeper for mine until at least then, if not season

Just the one roaring siren... that you would then own Carter Maloney.

CS9 - Edwards
Havili - Griffin
14K ITB
Thoughts??

Havili hasn't hit his peak but Griffin is very close to peaking at a 40-45 point scorer. Not good enough for keepers scores and not enough cash left in him to be a cow
