NRL Fantasy 2018 Thread Part 34

Well who's a good cut price centre got 605k when I got rid of Rochow or should stay with Hiku & Kennar and get someone else. Maloney>Keeper half eventually too. Thanks everyone

Dugan is pretty cheap, I'm thinkin about bringing him in.

Alvaro averages 49 with an average of 1TB and 0.5 offloads a game!

Base stat machine.

Bird is seriously cheap, with good upside if he holds the starting five-eight.

Rochow > Alvaro (love his consistency with basically no attacking stats)
Havili > Cogger

Will see what team lists throw up because id really like a base cow so I can get Fifita.

I know Alvaro has been great all season but but for 56k more surely Brown is the guy to go for?

Edit: More minutes and is just as much of a base stat machine.

Yeah thanks might do that.

@ L-Jimmy & Chewie, sorry chaps - on the mobile and can’t figute out how to quote.

Halves are; C.Walker, Maloney
Centres; J.Leilua, Hiku
Backs; C.Thompson, RTS, Ponga

Reserves; Mbye, Kennar, P.Sami
Bank; 23K

A lot of people have said not to get rid of RTS but even if he gets a 70 this week, I don’t want to sit through all the 20’s in between again. Just need someone more reliable before I lose even more value in trading him out.

I.Papalii starting for Harris. Hopefully he gets good minutes instead of their stupid 20 minute rotations

I did this 2 weeks ago. Cashed in the first week, last weeks 5 I could have done without

If you really want to move RTS on... I would go with either Teddy... 
or Matterson in the halves moving Cwalker to the WFB position (with origin in mind I would lean towards Matterson)

I was adamant about bringing in a bottom dollar sharks cheapie last week and had to toss up between Dillon and Sorenson. Guess which i chose? :/

I read that Havali only got 40 mins due to defensive pack that was the souths and he got fatigued. I suspect his mins will be similar against the cowboys.

Yeah went Bird. Niko will be hooker for the broncos I think with Macca out

Hehe I forgot about that guy. I like both

Smith
Lodge, Kikau
RFM, NBrown, Murray
Maloney, JMK
Dugan, Inglis
Tedesco, Ponga, Dufty

Cook, JFH, Rein, Arrow

Havili, Kennar, Gosieski, CThompson

$258k in the bank.

What would you do?

Bird's score of 5 doesn't scare you away 

SoylentGreen wrote:Is JMK a better cash cow option than rein? No one has mentioned him, but maybe that's because most people already have him?

Im running him in my 17

But prolly a little expensive as a cash cow candidate now.

Regarding Avlaro, are people looking at him as a keeper?
45 minutes average, 48 points priced at that too.
Assuming people have Arrow/Kikau in the FRF then just wondering where the upside to him is?

Consistently average and nothing wrong with that but assuming you have your FRF slot maxed then you are buying a bench spot.

Not counting the other popular people like Murray/RFM then you can also get

Harris,Fitzgibbon,

Or 40-50k more gets you
Surgess/Brown/Mannering/Guerra

Cheaper options are players like James/Taylor/Vaughan with more potential as well

Just not seeing where all the love for him has come all of a sudden, same on all the Facebook groups too

So he puts Hingano on, nice work Ricky.
