NRL Fantasy 2019 part 53

Haas is a good player and going to be a freak as he gets older but he has played like 10 games of NRL football. Origin is on a whole other level. Ofa has been putting in work off the bench for Broncos and has gas to match it too. Napa has stepped up this year and has always stepped up for QLD. A lot of people are writing off QLD but these players always seem to step up for these games.

Did you just compare Ofa favourably to Haas?

You reckon after 250 games of NRL he is suddenly going to find a creative spark and the ability to pass?

This is very true...

However before he got injured he was actually starting to have more scoots and doing a bit more kicking.

I was far more confident of a NSW win before some of our injuries

I think NSW with a decent edge in the backs, forwards and hooker role but i'd take DCE and munster over our halves any day of the week and that makes a huge difference in the crunch

Very interested to see what walker brings to origin. not that polished in his kicking and game management but can break a game open and is some footballer

Back us in a close series

My team for the round after trades.
Mahoney, Rein, Kapow, Whitbread, Taumalolo, Young, Arey, ATaylor, CNK, and Havilli

10 on the field.

I'm going to assume Roger and Robbie just had a bad day at the office going forward.
I've currently got 6 for round 18

I'd be shocked if Macca ever started for the broncos again, barring serious injury.

The only reason the broncos are winning is because of Turpin. Macca would get 30 mins from the bench again if he is lucky.

He needs to look for a new club.

Billy Brittain
Havili/starling

My bench and emg are ;
Mcinnes rein tolman young
Shitbread deardon turpin allan

Who the fuck do i get rid of to bring these guys in ?
Turpin?
Deardon ? Still has heaps of coin to make so surely he stays.

Probably Turpin. You can't get them all, you'll have to miss out on somebody.

I think this is definitely his last season with us.

I certainly think we are a better team without him. Turpin and Segeyaro provide all the attacking spark we need and our middle forwards are now doing a much better job, maccas defense isn't such an important factor.

Milford looks so much more dangerous in the last couple of weeks because he is getting quick service out in front of him.

I don't hate macca. I respect the efforts he's given on the field. He always tries his best. But its time to move on.

Nice trades

Not tempted to wait a week on batemans BE of 78 and to see his role ?

Probably not with Peats back in round 13. It will be a straight swap (I've got the cash in the bank) and I prefer to play Bateman over Xerri in the CTRs any day

I have 8, pre trades. I think I'll use 2, maybe three trades. The third would be a cash out, if so.

Haven't looked at how to afford it, but I'll probably grab Taupau + JFH + a cheapie.

I was looking good for 10 pre-trades until Wighton wiggled into origin and Martin disappeared from action.

Not scared of JFH Hua ongoing ?

Not really - if he's named to play.

Obviously I won't be getting him if he's ruled out

That would probably be good for Martin..

I traded Burns last week so he'll be named lads.

This gives me some hope. Thanks Wolfy, I needed that mate

I'm trying to control my itchy trigger finger on farah to JFH. He looked good before his HIA

GC. Much appreciated

Legend, cheers

My trades this week are Okunbor to Taupau, funded by DBrown to To'o. Not sure if I should sell anyone else to get more numbers for R12

I've got 9 guys for R12 by doing the above two trades. I'm not doing any more since there aren't any guys that I have that I want to sell, just Ox and DBrown. The only potential 3rd trade I might make would be Wighton to ARey but I'm not sure ARey is a season keeper (my end goal is Munster and DCE in my halves but could run ARey as a backup) and it's obviously contingent on if he plays this week.

My team for R12 is: (assuming ARey plays and I buy him)

Mahoney
Rein
Tolman
Taupau
Young
Taumalolo
ARey
Garrick
CNK
To'o

Martin > Brittain
Morgan > Taupau
Lawrie > JFH

Beware they will probably all break.

I'm looking at Capewell to Cook V2 but JFH is tempting me too.  If Burns is named will be hard for me to not bring him back in.
