Re: 2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 31
I'm looking at Surgess and Tolo, but my gut is telling me to get Tolo in first. I think last week could be a sign of things to come. Surgess of course plays 13, but plenty of time still to bring him in.

Wallace too, especially if they go with Maloney and look at combinations. But, yeah, Cook or Api off bench at least. Point was it's hard to aim for a specific number in Round 13 unless your team is stacked with Kiwis and Poms.
Combinations is an interesting point when you think about the Trbojevic brothers. Tom has been better than Teddy so far this season and if he keeps up his good form could displace Teddy for the fullback gig. The combo he has with Jake will also come into thinking you'd imagine.

Copley has a history of pulling out some really dud scores just when he gets people interested in him. Plus seems to get injured alot. But as you say Inglis hasnt been much better. Id be avoiding both if i was looking for a centre
Last year didnt he bang out 2 50's in a row then took a turn out for the worst? Also wasnt that on the wing? Correct me if i wrong but isnt he in centre now? In saying this i wouldnt touch him with a 10 foot pole

Re: 2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 31
he doesn't have the extra funds and unless a basement priced player turns up in TLT trading any of these is going to be sideways and a waste of trade.Rapture_NRL wrote:@Brendos1er Not too bad, main concern is your bench and halves. Sao, Kennar, and Croker options for trade out if you need extra funds
Save the trades this week @Brendos1er if the base price cashcow doesn't turn up. If you must trade Sao is first to go. Less upside.

There you go
Titans mail: Dale Copley is expected to be rested this week after suffering a hamstring strain over the weekend. Tyronne Roberts-Davis is an option to replace him, as is Brendan Elliot who has had two weeks back from injury.

@code delta @Brendos1er I meant as in a double trade to help upgrade. But true that, no need to rush a trade if one isn't obvious

I'll be all over this in 15mins or so mate, just gotta go across the road and buy some ciggies. Unfortuantely, in this country that literally takes about 15mins
Why the unfortuantey? Gives you time to have one less ciggie, time away from stats and helping others and time for a chance to deal with your real world.
Hang on, I'm saying the wrong thing here. Learn to organize your time better.
I gave up the smokes 3 years ago. Part of the motivation was so I could afford better gear to take photos of birds. Mission accomplished.
Hang on. Ignore.

Jack Williams, Braden Uele and Scott Sorensen all lining up for Cronulla this weekend.
I am guessing nobody will be there long enough to be of any fantasy value.
Flanagan also says he wants to give Katoa another week in reserve grade, but could be a handy round 7-8 cashout coming up.

Re: 2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 31
Some quality advice being dished out tonight. Would appreciate some thoughts.
Lodge>Su'a, pretty well covered by others to this point. Stuck on the second, the downgrade gives me $470k ITB. I can address my halves and turn Croker into any half that isn't SJ, Mbye most likely. I don't trust Matterson, Api, Brooks, Widdop, etc. Or i could turn Dufty into SJ, which would mean running Thompson at the back until he peaks. I don't see Dufty as a keeper long term so will need to upgrade at some point anyways.
Cook
Arrow Kikau
RFM Murray Harris
DCE JMK
Hiku Mitchell
Teddy Ponga Dufty
CS9 Sua Rochow JFH
Croker Kennar Gosie Thompson

Re: 2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 31
Leaning towards Tohu now. Been solid. No tries yet.
Worried last week may be an outlier for Taumalolo this year with how he's being targeted defensively.
Edit. Only 1 try.

I dont mind the Dufty to SJ trade. Thompson is a handy guy to bring in from the bench. Strengthens your team not having to play jmk in your 17
