NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 16

Haha have had 5 of my forwards play for an average of 66 without taking into account captains score.

So much for a slow start

Hope you guys aren't planning to loophole Keighran in

The decision was made not to trade specifically to loop, but to use if available and made sense to do so.

Anyone else taking the punt on starting Garrick or is it just ol' filthy filth?

im not a vet at Fantasy, whats this "loop" i keep seeing?

I just don't see him getting the minutes next week. You can't drop Jazz or Roache out of the 17 after how they played today. Luke and Papali'i to come back need to push two of the hookers/second rowers out. Is that Ayshford and Burr? They seem the most likely.

Not sure Luke is back next week? I see Warriors not changing their 17 other than iPap on the bench for Ayshford. Then when they don't win by 30 points iPap comes back in for Burr. When Luke back Burr prob drops out of 17 if no other injuries, but hopefully he's made coin before then.

Brendan Elliot
Jorge Taufua
Moses Suli
Brad Parker
Reuben Garrick

Does that backline inspire anyone with much confidence in scoring points?

No trading to loophole anyone in that team mate. That was the consensus but we will loop later if there's a red dot.

manly game about to start -
bring taupau in for taumalolo? thoughts?

when you decide last minute not to play keigran

Don’t do it.

swapping in your 18th man by swapping a player from your 17 who hasnt played with a non scoring player for the round. in its basic form. you can do 19th man etc too

If you have a non playing player in your 17, you get the highest placed player in that same position from your reserves. You can impact which player you want to play in that position, after you have seen their scores.
Example for me this week:
Played Xerri at CTR
Have Katoa at 18, can get his score if I want by playing a CTR in 14-17, or get Burns' score from my 19-21, or get Ravalawa's score when he plays. I get 3 shots at getting a great score, then decide who I want to keep for the round.

That's without mentioning how bad their pack are. Sucked in Manly

Deliberately putting a non-player on your 17 to force an AE for someone in 18th spot who has scored well.

Specifically this week people have Bird/Keighran in 18, and are contemplating trading in a non player to get Bird/Keighran into their scoring 17
Personally I think that is a waste of an early scoring spit

You guys are making me sad I didn’t just pick who I really wanted in Roache. I wouldn’t have picked he’d be above Burr in pecking order. I assumed he was purely a Luke replacement and nothing else? But you’re suggesting that even when Luke is back he’ll stay in 17 over Burr? That’ll hurt, lol.

Oh well, don’t mind having him around because it seems any injury in the forwards and he grabs a few more dollars. Or so, I hope.

What is generally considered a good score for round 1?

came in clutch, swapped out blake lawrie for keighren 5 mins before kickoff

You make it sound like you get to choose retrospectively which isn't true. Milchy and I think Boozy posted numbers from last year and looping is greatly overrated ESPECIALLY at this point in the season.
