NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 17

Ive gone Kahu and Radley to Lawrie and Bateman. thoughts?

This would enable me to move Radley on and bring in Josh Bateman (keeper @ centre) for Watson and eventually have him as one of three permanent centres Holland, Nikora and Bateman, while still having decent HLF coverage.

This is pretty well-thought out? No?

Scratch that Martin was try assisted. I want to get Bateman in, but this is not a sound strategy

I’m thinking a straight swap of Holland for Bateman as my only trade this week.

Doesn’t leave me with much coin though.

Ok next divergent thought. What about Brandon Smith as a replacement for Radley? Seems to have at least 40 minutes a week sewed up and is priced at low 20s. If anything happens to (C)mith at any stage he will go super large.

Same as before Radley to (B)mith Watson to Bateman. I can watch some prices rises before improving on Morgan / Keighren / Brown in the halves

Got any other options. I reckon Holland will pay off. Surely someone else underpeformed. Both Holland and Bateman will be centre keepers

Done! Anyone else gonna ride (B)mith with me? It will be fun I promise

I have Kahu, Sivo and Edwards who were underwhelming.

McCullough
Fifita Tolman
Murray Arrow Matterson
Morgan Keighran
Holland Capewell
Kahu CNK Edwards

Nikora Gillette Mahoney Garner

Sivo Rava Burr Brown

I want to keep Arrow and see how he goes for a week or two yet. Just thinking I need Bateman before he gets too expensive.

do I keep AFB on my emergencies for a week then I can loop between nikora and Burr or Brown or do something else
already done my trades;     Walker -> Lawrie and Radley ->bateman with keighran going from EMGs to HLF

Friend
Fifita Vaughan
Arrow Murray TPJ
DCE Brown
Capewell Nikora
Edwards CNK Burns
R: Mahoney Niukore Garner Host
E: Keighrnan Bird Ravalawa Garrick

Only 2k in the bank

You’ve caught most of the cows which is good mate and a bit of upside there.

Edwards would be gone for me, even if just for some budget only because I hate spending at WFB

Tricky as you have Burns already who for me is now top priority in the backs as much as it’s hard to take my Bateman blinkers off

PS Anyone thinking of dropping Sivo should be wary. Looks like Jennings will be suspended for one week. Sivo could go large without Jennings on that side to hog the ball. Went very close to some big point moves several times yesterday.

Hi all.
Current team is
Cook
Fif Marty
Arrow Murray Lane
Morgan Keighran
Holland Burns
Edwards CNK Kahu

Capewell Garner Nikora Brown
Bird Garrick Sele Rav

I think my trades this week are Garrick to Lawrie and Kahu to Host. Are these good trades. Leaves me with 102k ITB
Going to give the likes if Arrow and Holland (possibly edwards) another week to perform and if they go shite again ill bring in bateman and gillet next week. Thoughts would appreciated
Cheers.

Thanks for the Break Evens Milchy much appreciated.
Also MTB your NRLFantasy website is really well done and much appreciated.
While I'm at it well done to the mods in organizing the leagues this year, very smooth and professional...

At this stage, I would keep Garrick and Sele. No harm done if they dont perform for a few weeks and they may well have a big game. I think your main problem is Kahu, but as you probably bought him in as a cash cow, just move him to your NPR. Shift Burns to WFB and put Bird or Nikora in at CTR / 14-17 respectively. Ride out Kahu until you see a more vauable cash cow worthy of using up a trade on

If you have enough cash, why not just swap Kahu with Bateman and put Ravalava or Sivo in at WFB. As poor as Sivo scored this week we is just as likely to pump out a big one this week with Jennings likely suspended.

Cheers for the response! In saying that how else could i get host and lawrie into my 21 this week. Trade Holland??. Cheers.

Not on the ride, but I like the idea.

Maybe they’ll go Tariq at lock Leilua on an edge and bring in josh Kerr on bench

Whats the magic number this year?

Also, is this a crazy trade?

Edwards/napa to burns/ravalawa.

Thoughts behind this trade. Get 2 cash cows which will net me $60k instead of losing $30k in the first week. Instant $90k swing. I will play 1 of them in my 17...at worst be 5-10pts behind. Gives me another week to look at sivo, if he doesnt go well then straight swap to bateman next week.

Then with consecutive price rise my team will be $150-200k better off by end of round 3

Has anyone made a trade on the site yet?

I can't figure out how to actually trade someone in? Go to the trade screen and can get a list of targets, but can't see a button to actually add them to my team

Initial MN was 14910

This week it was 14306 (low magic number due to such a high scoring round)
