NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 36

855 with Garner and Moses to go. Can only imagine how well I'd be doing if I wasn't the dumbest fuck out and captained anyone else besides Taupau. It's honestly astounding how I was tossing up between about 5 captaincy options and I manage to pick the worst one. A 4 in 5 chance of not picking the worst scorer but sometimes I amaze even myself.

Not having Bateman is killing me. This whole round is killing me.

Still kinda happy i did it after rd 2 (i think). Got bateman in cheap

Ryan James confirms his injury happened prior to contact, and it is “likely” he has suffered a season ending knee injury (via @TonyWebeck). Scans likely just to confirm on Tuesday. Usual ACL injury recovery is 6-9 months in the NRL. Horrible news, thoughts are with James - nrlphysio

That is sad to hear indeed

Yeah bro fantasy can drive you crazy at times. We've all been there, that's still a good score though. By next week you won't even be worrying about this week.

The number 1 ranked player atm scored 1k with no players left.

Looking at others scores I feel a bit below par with 830 with Garner,Mahoney and Capewells 54. Hope my rank doesn’t plummet too much

Assuming Garner and Mahoney average out to 45. I don't think 970 is below par at all

884 with Mahoney and Garner to come

I think the magical 1000 will still elude me but hopefully should get high range of 950-975

Anyone having a crack at Whitbread? Only real option for me would be downgrading Lawrie and banking some cash

News of Ryan James ACL frees up a bunch of minutes in the pack. Titans down on troops and seems to have a work rate. Looks preferred to Fotuaika.

May have been impacted by Proctor injury but a 30 base should see some decent cash

Yeah just been on the site and pretty good base stats there and minutes could be on the up.

Whitbread/Cleary could be an option

Surely you have someone better to trade than Lawrie. The guy is scoring 45s while being under 500K.

Burns/Sele probably more likely but both still got plenty of cash in them

It’s making it so much harder to take him being the top fantasy scorer given he’s on the team I follow and plays the first bye! Kicking myself he didn’t survive a pre season iteration.

Cook
Fifita Tolman
Arrow Murray Garner
Morgan CHT
Nikora Xerri
Ponga CNK Hughes

Smith Rein Mahoney Burr
Haas Burns Kahu Garrick


Hughes seems best funds to invest into getting him somehow?

Taking a stab with no maths behind it -
Hughes/Arrow and Kahu/Garrick to Bateman and Cashie (Lomax pending TLT).

Can't believe Haas played 80. I know TPJ and Lodge are to come back but good signs for him.

Wallace and Arrow at Origin should see him pump out a decent score in round 12 aswell

I think Lawrie has more cash in him than both those guys. Maybe not Burns but who knows when he'll be back. Your call but Lawrie is still to make decent cash.

The James injury probably puts a line through it but I’m tempted to cash out Okunbor and turn Arrow into DCE. Will probably try to find a way to get Cleary instead
