NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 17

Mr Fernando wrote:gotta decide between Fifita and Batemen this week (the other will come in next week)
tempted to go with Fifita so I get one more look at Batemen but it seems conservative, Batemen looks like a gun in the making

The price increases from a big score will affect Bateman more than Fifita. I want to bring Fifita and Bateman in too, but I've got other problems lol

I think so.

I will have Bateman at 2RF, Capewell and Holland at CTR, Nikora bench, Burns at WFB

Would you trade any of them for Bateman?

I discussed earlier bringing Lawrie in for Hethrington, which is locked in.

Just thinking if I need to do Kahu to Host too, or just leave it at one trade this week? Or I could probably even do Kahu to Bird. But is Kahu worth holding for at least a few more weeks? I tend to think so.

I know, what a champ
For a lumbering, average prop Wallace has got a bit of an ego, that would’ve stung lol

Pretty decent stat line for young Smith as well. Definitely tempted now

Nofoaluma a chance to return R3. Mbye will be reassessed during the week for warriors clash.

Good thing for this trade is that tigers are the last game of the round, so you'll get to see if sele does play or not.

Ahh that is an excellent point thank you! I’ll reverse that trade and sit on it 

Any advice on these trades:

Glasby -> Lawrie
Sivo -> Bird
$248k left

Glasby -> Lawrie
Holland -> Bateman (or Gillett)
$176k left

Glasby -> Fifita
Macca -> $232k player
$0k left



Leaning towards A.. means I forgo some decent players though

A from that lot. Host over Lawrie? 50 in 40 mins isn't sustainable

Garrick - Lawrie
Sele - Host (Not sold on this one)

Already have garner, nikora, kahu, bird, brown, keirghran rav and bruns. Am i missing any 'cash cows'. Cheers.

Hmmm Radley is the only guy I don't feel bad about trading. But I'm sure if I do he will crack out a 45.

Feels like I'll be missing out on some cows.

Twal and Garrick out for Lawrie and one of (B)Smith/Host will be my trades this week.

I'm for B. I'm doing what I must to get Bateman in at lowest point possible. Buy low, sell high.
I understand A though to maximise cash generation.

I just have a glut of CTR options, so Hollands gone

Thanks for the reply. 50 might not be, but 40 might be. He had 1PPM last season but only had 20min... Don't know enough about Host so would be interested to hear your thoughts

Me too. I've got 5 2RFs and 5 CTRs So do you think bring Lawrie in over Bird?

I prefer B too, though I’m not so sure about any of them to be honest, if it means moving Glasby on. I’d have thought he be worth keeping around for a while?

He scored 44 off an 11 point try :/ I was hoping for 45 without one. He would have only met his BE, and if only scores 35 going forward he only picks up another $30-40k. Other option is to flick Holland and Radley

I am loathe to trade Holland, but considering I started with Sele/Sivo/Garrick I feel like I'm going to be behind the 8 ball when it comes to cash making if I don't bring in at least one of the better cashies.

Fuck the Friz is injured isn't he? So potentially Lawire has a longer role now, what is it 4 weeks for the Friz?

Was he playing lock or 2RF? Korbin back soon, goes he effect Host or Lawrie?

So torn on how to play it this week. I can trade one of my failed cows Sivo/Garrick to a cash maker ie Bird but it would leave me very short on funds. I’m pretty contempt with everyone else in my team so don’t really want to trade anyone else but I also don’t want to leave myself short of funds.
