With the number of injuries this season, I'd be very careful with using your remaining trades. Trading out Fifita only to bring him back in later seems like a waste of trade to me.

Im not so worried about the trades, but its the reward from them. You should be able to net $150k and 30-40 extra round 12 points from a trade at the moment. Will trading Fifita in and out net you the same? Perhaps, but you are banking on injury guess work, where as other options are much more in your hands.

I'm thinking about trading Xerri to Martin. I see Martin making a quick $150k+ and he plays r12. However, it means playing Lomax in my centres. Although, Xerri only needs to jag a couple of early ball tries and he kicks on again..... hmmm, I think I've convinced myself not to do it

I guess I could trade Garrick to Martin. I don't see Garrick making $150k from here.

Bah, I intended to bank my second trade this week. This is looking less likely at this rate.

Forum moving so slow the last couple of days (apart from the whole legal shit yesterday). What is a way we can get things kicking off. Who are our certainty's this week and who are our upsets?
Certainty - Rabbitohs. Raiders injury toll is not looking too good. Rabbits should eat it up.
Upset - Broncos. Now not many may think this is an upset but Broncos are so Jekyll and Hide and Roosters are just all class. 11th v 1st so yeah it would be an upset for Broncos to win.
Smokey Captain (Fantasy) - Haas. Will need to muscle up against Roosters pack and could be the man to get the Broncos on the front foot.

I’m dumping him this week with the intention of picking him up in round 13/14 currently have him traded out for Martin/young. It’s what WL said that got me thinking. The rise of Uele means they have to rely less on Fifita hell he even played less mins for Uele against the storm that shows a lot of trust in Uele and this week coming off his injury I can see reduced mins and doesn’t play the bye round. I’ll probably regret it because I know he can go gangbusters but if he score 55 the next two weeks I Can pick him up again for what 700k?

Don't do it. Random will be stoked to see this plan.

I'm thinking the same but might do it next week if Martin is appealing. I'd like to play Xerri this week and see how Garrick plays with Walker as his CTR partner (does he lose GK). I'd rather play Garrick v Titans next week so I might sell Xerri next week

Edit: might prioritise burns if he returns next week in a straight swap for Xerri

I think Young and Martin are good shouts aye (but in that order) - you have Young right?

These are both guys that can make $150k and add up to 50 in round 12 - the later is the key. If they both come off you make a big (relative) leap in the rankings. I know last year you were perhaps one trade short come the end of the year, but I do wonder what it would have cost you to save one along the way with the view that their could be a rainy day.

All in is my motto, I reckon grab Martin mate. Im just not sure who for....Im kinda thinking Garrick to be honest....I feel like he most likely scores 20-30 that round whereas Xerri looks like he's gonna explode most weeks and jumping off him early could really hurt... I guess by keeping him you kinda need to do that through to round 16 though. If you dont think you'll hold him that far then dump him now.

I think it seems that way because it has been relentless.

We are around 250 pages ahead of this time last year, and that is with the sub sections this year of the rate my teams.

Should I bring in both Lolo and Taupau this week? Or one of them and a cow?

Cook
Fifi Haas
Murray Arrow Capewell
ARey Cleary
Xerri Nikora
Teddy CNK Ponga

Rein Morgan Vaughan Dearden

Young Garrick Whitbread Sele

$456k bank

Definitely want to go Capewell/Morgan to one of the above as that was the whole plan playing Capewell in the second row for a week. Second trade would be the other one to either Martin or upgrade to the other big boy. Also thinking McInnes or Munster (a little short of CS9/Lolo which would have been my ideal option I think)

We're close to Thread 51 already

Do we get a banner if we hit Thread 100?

Note to all, www.footystatistics.com will be the website address moving forward.

You're website has been the best NRL Fantasy resource hands down. So versatile and detailed. I love the search function on the BE page , as it really helps filtering results quickly. Thanks for all the effort you've put in so far! I really appreciate it and I know most on here feel the same.

I'm afraid Martin gets the Kaide Ellis treatment. Starts at lock and plays 35 minutes

Looks sharp mate!

Joe O has re-signed with the Broncos for another 3 years.

The worry with Lomax is Mary benching him after 50 minutes.

If I knew he'd get 80 minutes, I'd consider playing him.

Ryan Hall to return this weekend via CC.
