NRL Fantasy 2018 Thread Part 37

With the Brown news I’m now considering trading him out for someone. I would have 796k ITB.

Dufty > Matterson (swapping JMK to WFB)
Brown > ???

Cook
JFH TPJ
Harris Murray Su’A
Matterson Koro
Hiku Isaako
Ponga Mitchell JMK
RFM Arrow Kikau Griffin
Havili Sorensen Brown Kennar

Should have  -in retrospect - done Brown already, but as he hasn't it's sunk costs and it's a hold. If it's a four week injury you trade him, but if it's two week injury (from now) you hold him. The fact he's been out two weeks already is irrelevant to current calculation.

I'd still dump him regardless, could be 3 weeks minimum and obviously much worse than originally feared, high chance of injury reoccurance also

Croker - Cogger

holding Gos and Dugan

What are your thoughts behind holding that duo? Are you gonna watch Walker first before making the trade?

Thanks mate, you don't think I should ditch Brown? Could be three more weeks.

Three is borderline, two is hold, I think. Very frustrating not to know when he's back, but forget about the time he's missed already.

Walker who mate? DWalker?

Holding Gos because I need to save trades and Dugan is a keeper in the CTR, Isaako will get a reprieve and no one interests me to make Gos a trade out as I don't have much cash

Praise Jeebus, some good news! Hopefully some decent minutes at hooker for Benji Jnr!

I think I’m going Paseka over Hass. May get more mins now with Lane taking the second row spot as brown and Frankenstein seem on the outer

Oh sorry mate, thought you were considering DWalker.

I have both of those guys as my only red dots but only 100k in the bank.
Really have no idea what to do this week.

Will Lane be taking Gossies 80min role?

What's the likelyhood Graham can keep Kennar out when he's fit again? Or will we just see two weeks outta him?

That's me considering Walker bud...

Welshy, that bad smell GI is still hanging around my team... How bout you fella?

MWZ isn't injured, he trained all last week and warmed up as 18th man - off wt forum

Same mate but too many other problems and he really isn't a priority to go! Scored better last week without the try, so earns himself a few more weeks

I'm feeling he may have to hang around as well. But then I'd also like to hold Dugan. Just don't feel I can do that. Means I have to play both Thompson and JMK in my 17 and that ain't ideal.

And limited minutes/form when he returns

Nothing wrong with JMK, people were talking him up as a potential keeper few weeks ago lol i don't mind running him in WFB if the hooker move is true and not too bothered if he stays in the halves.

Thompson still going well mate, with so many injuries sometimes best thing to do is just play what you have and let the cards fall instead of replacing what you think is a good scorer with a "better" one only for the guy on your pine to score more lol

I have to punt Lodge this week. Also ditching L.Crocker. Have basically their cash and thats it. Went with a Cogger/DWalker combo, with Walker to play in my centres. Anyone remember last year how he performed in the halves?

Alternatively, I have enough cash fora Cogger/Ramien trade as well.

Thoughts on those options or others.

Already posted. It wasn't last year, the year before. Played 12 games at 5/8. Taking out his goal kicking points which he won't get, averaged 34.5. Priced at 27. Plays round 13 and frees up almost 200k from Dugan. Very tempted. As my luck would have it though, they play last and Hastings could come in. Although at least he should be safe in the 17 even if just playing centre.

listening into the supercoach podcast and they also mentioned MWZ was dropped so founa is in there on merit, but there are still concerns about lolohea coming back. they also praised fonua for busting 39 tackles so far in the NSW cup this year
