NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 16

That dummy pass by Keighran leading to his try was so good even I thought he passed it. One of my league mates was so good at throwing dummy passes every time the other team fell for it even though the whole competition knew what my mate would do & were told not to fall for his dummy pass but they always did. A good dummy pass is a great attacking asset.

623 with Mahoney, Brown, Arrow, CNK and Edwards to play. 

See you next year.

Thought rank would be higher but that's cool

Live rankings are always tough. I'm 717 with Arrow, Edwards, Cleary, CNK and Brown to play and am back in 11,198th. Doubt I'm getting 129 out of the last 3 so you'll be ahead of me but I'd expect your rank to go up a fair bit. Always tough mid round to see where you are really at.

Wth bro, very nice! I'm definitely envious. Thought I was doing well but apparently not lol I'm about 100 behind with those 2 and 2 others to come. What's your rank?

Think it's sitting around 650 mate. You should get close depending on who your two other are?

My WFB is looking grim though haha. Teddy and BMoz, but they'll have better days.
I also gambled on Friend as captain.

Problem is I have Arrow and Edwards who are pretty popular picks so I don't see it getting better

Will soon find out.

738 with Mahoney, Arrow and CNK to play... not ideal but my fixes are pretty straight forward.. if i can get to 850 ill be super happy.

Most of the people at the top of live rankings would have used all/most of their players so far.
Having anyone play today should see you rise a bit

I can't remember having an opening round as high scoring as this for as long as I've played the game.

660 + Mahoney, Arrow, Cleary, Edwards, CNK & Sivo.

Current live ranking outside the top 20,000 but I doubt many have six to play.

Do I get npr for Mahoney for Keighran score. Already missing looper potential. Would use cash to do Radley>Friend and have him and Macca.

What's story with Salmon potential to come back in team near future?

Also, well done Wales in the six nations. Unbeaten. Welshy will be a happy lad!

Big JT from the Cowboys, glad I made him my captain, though sitting on 27 points at halftime was a worry, the guy is just a beast who can't be stopped

664 with 5 left (Whitehead, Arrow, Lane, Mahoney and CNK)

With Teddy flopping I am still fairly happy with this team although with little left in the bank, don't know what I'll do about possible trades including Bird and Gillett

I am basically the same, 653 with six to play (two different to your six).

Browsing through peoples posts of where they sit, I don't really see anyone with major cause for concern.

I'm disappointed with DCE's 35, he's my lowest scoring player, but I reckon that is about his floor. Didn't see the game though, so if I should be worried, someone please let me know lol. My only other poor score was Garrick in NPRs with 10.

I would hold with your team unless you really want to get Friend next week.

People were looking at trading Garner out for an NPR so they could get Birds score. If they did that they effectively bet on a gamble someone plays next week and lost 5 points.

Manly just didn't do much. Their only attacking play came through Elgy once. Taupau was pulled off after like a 10 minute stint with like 15 minutes to go, because Des was essentially giving up on the game.

With my crap score, I'm seriously considering getting rid of Brown for a NPR to get Keighans score.  Probably not worth it though.

If you have Mahoney, you are presumably expecting 40+

Is it worth killing a spot in your team for a 1 off 20 point boost?
I wouldn't think so

I have had a hero and villans round. Nothing in between.

714 with Arrow, Brown, Sivo and Edwards to go.


Radley, Burns, Tedesco and Holland my only 1- 17 players under 50 so far. I suspect Radley will be gone next round. I didn't like the way he played and better options for much less out there. Teddy will be back, I got him for the season he will average out. Holland and Burns are on notice.

Captain Cook didn't go too flash, but he has earned some patience. I just may place the C elsewhere next round.

I originally had CNK as my third WFB, but traded him out (with Mikaele) yesterday to bring in Host and Burr plus give me $140k cash to make some changes. Plan will be to move Burns to WFB and bring in Bird for Centre. So far it is looking like a good move cash wise with Host and Burr getting 40 and having money in the bank. but will see how CNK plays tonight. Chances are he will go large for you lads now I jumped off.

Or worse he scores 60

711 with arrow, cnk, Edwards, Mahoney, DBrown to play. Bird in emg instead of kahu is irritating but hindsight’s a bitch
