NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 50

Arrow to Taupau I guess is my option if he's ruled out for some time.

I mean they'll both play Round 16 and be keepers for the season. I don't see the downside in getting them in now.

Tolman is a tricky one I must say. Post Round 12, turning him into McInnes was my plan but he's far from the most urgent sell. 3 scores under 50 from 10 games ain't bad reading. Heck Taupau has more scores under 50 than what he does.

Sorry I forgot to mention. This is for R12 and the * denotes possible Origin selection.

Hmm I could afford Arrow + Lawrie to Taupau + JFH with 5k to spare but would then have to make decision tonight and then quite possibly Arrow may still play and it would be a wasted trade

JFH is an odd one with MT count (2nd most in league) and realistically he's not going to be a final 17 player.

If Arrow misses this week there's a chance he doesn't make it through Origin training and isn't selected in final teams but is deemed fit enough to play for Titans possibly and would play R12 when he otherwise wouldn't so I'm tempted to just stick with my current trades and reassess next week

If Arrow is out JFH looks good and then Brown to Farah/CS9 might just be my other trade.

Any thoughts on how Jordan Mclean could go over the origin period?

Good article on Herbert. Makes it nice owning him

He's getting selected for QLD no matter what mate.  No way he's playing round 12 for the Titans and not playing for QLD.  Won't happen.

Great shout mate, if he doesn't make origin.

Kevvie said he'll select players that haven't played beforehand (DCE etc) but if they don't make it through all the training sessions he won't pick them

Didn't even think of Origin. Has he ever been selected to play Origin before?

Now manu is back starting is anyone thinking Arrow to mau

Think I might go Arrow to Farah if he is missing a few games. Looks more appealing than JFH.

Miss out on an extra rd12 player but Farah is an end of season keeper so it doesn’t worry me

Lawrie Re-signs with the Dragons.

Nathan Brown shouldn't be too far off. Besides Ma'u gets moved around in the team so I personally don't think its worth the punt.

By the way Arrow was shown walking off without any support so could be just precautionary scan.

By the way Arrow was talking pre-season it sounds as though he doesn't want to try play through any injuries this year as he thought it really slowed him down last year and wore him out quicker. Could take the rest to make sure he is 100%. He plays first game Friday so wouldn't have to wait too long.

JFH plays tonight though for anyone considering him.

His output at LK is much better in the 6 games compared to 4 games at SR.

Around 47 tackles compared to 39. Missed less at LK with 4.6 to 5.5 at SR.

Overall avg around 53 compared to 45.

I'm tempted by JFH in SC where missed tackles are only -1.

Depends on the severity of Arrow's injury though and mightn't get much info.

Arrow injury is annoying but probably the least annoying injury out of my 21 players. Probably would have traded him next week anyway, just moves that forward a week. Would rather not have to use the trade this week though.

By the way, I almost fell for D Walker's tears on Channel 9, till his partner was asked to clarify her story where she decided that she doesn't need to justify to anyone but only to her family & friends.

If that's the case, why do the puff-piece story?

He has played for Australia but not played origin (he was injured last year all through origin period)
