NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 77 - Two Thirds Left of a Team List Tuesday

Not sure but he's earned the spot so seems like the coach likes him. I'm jumping on. Thompson on the bench but Doorey should still be safe hopefully

He's worth a punt as a cut price 17th man but the question is if he'll be getting decent minutes. Holbrook has only played him for more than 40 minutes twice this season from 11 games.

Wallace historically needs 50+ minutes to get in the 40+ average range and his only score this season from 50 minutes is 35 albeit with -18 points in demerits.

It's a pretty light bench the Titans have and the guy is playing for a contract to save his career whether it's at the Titans or elsewhere so I don't doubt he'll run hard and tackle hard, it's just whether Holbrook gives him good minutes or not.

You tossing Fui mate?

Honestly got no idea what to do. I didn't realise it was a 2 week suspension until this morning. Makes me question why they challenged it if he would risk 2 games. No guarantee he comes back and starts either. Gonna run with 16 this week then re evaluate next week

Thinking Randall + Pearce to Moses + Kolo
Thoughts? Or is there another obvoius trade to do?

Cook
Klem, Collins
JT13, B.Smith, Jurbo
Cleary, Pearce
Croker, M.Jennings
Crichton, Teddy, Ponga

Fogarty, Starling, Jolliffe, To'a

Eisenhuth, Olakau'atu, Hampton, Randall

Only 2 trades left so I will be holding Haas.
5 red dots this week CS9, Haas, Katoa, Niu & Randall so I have to do something !

Randall to N.Brown for me this week leaving 1 trade and 3k in the bank !!

Would you rather Api or Matto mate?

Although it's SC so numbers vary, but I chose Koro over Matto this week. Have plans to turn NPRs into Matto in roughly 2 weeks though, or next week if another gun goes down.

Combination of a high BE for Matto, playing Storm and at least another week of getting through HIA free can't hurt I feel.

Planning on Haas to Mofo and Randall to a WFB,what do you think is the best option out of Guth or Edwards?

TU:Guth
TD:Edwards

Fuck it, Haas out for Bateman and hold Aubs to finance whoever gets wiped out this week (playing Siro)

With 4 trades left, and likely using one for cow-gun upgrade this week, trading Haas isn't on my agenda at all.

Though I'm more so going into protect my h2h leagues now rather than chasing overall. In the 300s currently but when I have Haas in the finals and some in my comp don't, it's going to be a difference-maker me thinks.

This is one of those short stories on trade options that might be too convoluted to answer so I won't expect one but I'll put my thoughts down anyway. I'm wondering if trading Haas with 3 trades and 6k left might actually benefit my team. Hear me out.

Not trading Haas

I have to play two of Clune, Fermor and Sironen for 2 weeks. Conserve my trades and when Haas comes back, double trade Aubo out and whoever's worth more out of those 3 for a cheap 17th man.

If I wanted a better scorer/cheap 17th man for the run home right now, the best I could do would be to trade Aubo to a 212k'er and Siro to anyone 632k or below. Not worth all that to run with 1 trade for the last 5 weeks no?

Trading Haas

I trade Haas to someone like Klemmer. I trade Aubo to someone around that same 630k range.

Could a combo of say Klemmer and G Williams for 6 weeks outscore a cheap 17th man + depth option (Or 2 depth options with no trades) for 2 weeks followed by Haas + 17th man for 4 weeks?


You know what with how precious trades are and how dire my options on the table are, I think I'm leaning towards to taking the punt on Aubo to Wallace and hoping he can average 40+ as a starting prop for the rest of the season.
I don't want to run with 1 trade for 5 weeks but I sure don't want to run with 2 of Clune, Fermor and Sironen for 2 weeks. Fantasy seppuku.

Looking at Haas to Bateman or Matterson. Going Matterson gives me 100% chance I get Haas back in but i expect a 55 avg for the rest of the year. Going Bateman means I have a 70% chance getting Haas back in but I reckon Bateman average 60-65 until year end.

Can someone explain the logic to me of not captaining Hunt because he might not make as many tackles so instead captaining McInnes who is in the same team and whose base stat tackles and pretty much nothing else?

Matterson averaging 64 in 70+ minutes this season, with a low of 52. Going to average higher than 55.
