2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 50

I knew Radley would smash it. What a great player. Youngest on the field & bossing it. However he's probably back to the bench next week. Also once Nofo went off & Fonua & Thompson were split up I knew they would score shit.

Some crazy good scores on here, well done brothers!

Only had 8 play and flew up 800 ranks, inside top 3000 now lol might actually go for a decent round 17 team. Didn't trade at all so might use them then

Can't wait to survey the damage haha

Graham should be good for next week? Yes?

Thoughts on Walker Booze?

Is he in fact not good at fantasy point accumulation?

I looked to start the season with him but held off and went DCE instead.
Watched him play all games this year and he has played well but not fantasy wise (Unless he scores a try).
Had put the last few weeks of poor scores down to his mum passing away and thought last week his confidence looked up and was thinking he had bottomed out
I have owned him before and the same thing happened mid season where his scores dropped off massively but then picked up again, but that was when the contract issues were resolved.

Not sure but think I have made a bad call and will cop it on the chin even with low trades
He isn't really needed this year to make the big plays given how the team is going and can't afford to have him him sub 20 scores while other players are firing.
I originally had Dugan to come in so last minute made a dumb trade in hindsight.

Will see what after origin brings up but won't be adverse to trading him straight out if that is what my team needs.

Looking forward to an early lockout lift and getting McInnes and SJ into my team

I am concentrating on H2H but I managed to hold my rank through this round so I am not too unhappy.

Just checked on my autofill team, up to 2000th place with around 800 for the week
I put about 1 minute a week there just before lockout on Thursday, sometimes even forget.
Usually just make gut calls with that team or bigger risks I wouldn't make with my main one

Jumped like 4000 places there, crazy what the byes can do when the table is so log jammed and close.

Dragons have got bulldogs, manly and then Eels. Does Mcinnes still rely on making 50 tackles to get a good score?

Just need Cook to be rested to hopefully put captain roulette into play next week and hopefully get pushing up the rankings again

Hopefully Cook and Arrow. I might have traded both out

650 was enough to push me from 250 to 140.

Thought I'd go back to my round 1 team and see how many players I still have in my team at round 13. Only 7 players. Teddy, Ponga, Calker, Isaako, Kikua, Fifi and Arrow.
Started with Cook and traded him out last week. He will come back in somehow round 18/19 if he survives SOO.

Been scooting and Been busting a fair few tackles lately gone really well after a poor start to the season by his fantasy standards, to get to his current average from how he started the first 5 games is quality scoring only 1 try as well

Looks like updates are in, moved up 12 spots since the game ended. Still locked out though

I moved up 4,000 spots and that’s all I’ve got to say about that.

Up to 93rd.

Nice move Rabs, finally got to witness the famous rabbit charge! You aiming to get McInnes back in?

Lol. All I know is I’m going to be trading my arse off now. 17 to play with. My R17 team’s going to be a cracker

Trading is open

No idea what to do this week. I think I'm going to just wait for team lists and Origin to pass and really spend Thursday coming up with some panic trades.
