Trials and Tribulations of a NRL Fantasy Coach 2019 - End result 40th

Rippin and Tearin wrote:Hey Booze, fingers crossed Brimson goes Boom for you mate - nice POD pick there I reckon.

Also congrats on your team going so well - rooting for you. Mattnz said right at the beginning of the year he liked the POD of your initial strategy, I completely agreed with him so its nice to see it working out.

For what its worth I'll have a quick look at your team once round 12 closes. Will tell you what I'd do if in your position.

My team is shit so I have a bit of spare time lol!!

Hey R&T
Brimson was a bees dick away from a large score though 45pts in a bye week is nothing to sneeze at
Hopefully he keeps his spot at fullback as while he played well the goal kicking was shit so now more worried about Gordon.

What's fun was Rein bet his BE by 6 points, dropped 7k cash and now I can't do a single trade to Mcinnes as 5k short now
Anyways will work something out, look at some different scenarios and see what happens

Will see what TLT dishes up

Nice work Booze, all the way up to 17. 4 players at this stage for rd16 Think you might have to go harder than plan posted yesterday and just hope 3-4 trades can carry you through.

Haha yeah was thinking that when looking over the team earlier.
A couple trade in's this week, 4 more in 16 should give me 10 for that week
As long as any new players that come in and plays the rd 16 bye then it should be ok.

Also lucky that players like Matterson/Harris/Fitzgibbon/Farah/RTS/Johnson/Finucane are all quite cheap too and help build depth in case of injuries.
Some slight upgrades or a couple sideways ones to these 'Value' types of players and should be able to ride out the year without having to trade them out again (While hopefully they return back to old form)

Might as well keep having some fun eh

As below so above and beyond I imagine
Drawn beyond the lines of reason
Push the envelope
Watch it bend

I like Matterson but think he will end up in the Origin team, he is on the edge now and injuries always happen. I’m leaning to KBrom as a pod as long as Stimpson doesn’t steal his minutes.

I screwed up in my team this week, should have went Carty to Bateman as was going to do that this week anyway. Now I can’t also do Rein to McInnes as I already am doing Tolman to DCE. 3 guns in would have been great

Over thinking, over analyzing, separates the body from the mind
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must

Lets combine both this song and Fantasy for you Liverpool Bulldog, lets blow that mind of yours

The Fibonacci spiral is everywhere, the sequence applied to a fantasy team

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34

1 Team
1 Hooker
2 FRF
3 Second rowers
5 outside backs
8 reserves
13 players in my starting team
21 players in my squad
34 a starting team (13) + a full squad (21)

Or am I over analysing this

Ok lets get this thread back on track again haha

_______________________________________________________________________

Round 13 Trades -325k remaining

Have gone Reynolds to Dearden with the aim to bring in Johnson though Milford/Brooks/Pearce are options too (closer to rd16).
Second trade I have traded Rein with news of Arrow pulling up ok and Peats to be in the 17.
Not going to gamble on his minutes/role so will play Xerri as the 17th man this week and see what Sivo does

Hey Pacey, thanks mate. Just firing all my shots now before the season is out.

Pretty much have lost interest now so just going through the motions, haven't been motivated much for a month or so at least.
Other than lurking in the main thread and posting here I am just really playing this out to see how it ends haha.

Cheers for your message and your late mail posts.. MVP = Most Valuable Poster

Wish I was so jaded in 9th place overall :/

Keep shooting booze you’ll need to find some motivation before rd16 or I fear we may not see you again and a lot of people really enjoy your thread

It’s all a bit of fun end of the day, wasn’t trying to rub the rank in people’s faces.
I prefer helping others and fixing teams to be fair along with the community aspect of the game.
Different things motivate different people that’s all

Haha yeah, going to ride this team as close to the edge of the cliff without it falling off.
So that means 4+ more trades and then I am in the hands of the fantasy gods.

Mahoney/Sivo/Dearden/CNK
into
Taukeiaho/Watson/Johnson/Twal(Harris,Matterson)

If I wanted to burn even more trades spending 1-2 more and cashing out rd16 Moses for Pearce(Brooks) and even Brimson could become RTS(Pap)

Will see what happens but plenty of DPP players might get me to the end.. or not haha
At least it makes good reading regardless of what happens

Will work out the order of my trades pending TLT (And depending if we get 2 trades this week vs 4)

Great work Booze! good to see you in the top 10!

Awesome ranking Booze and good luck for rest of the season.
