2016 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 40

I'm 24k short in this scenario

Holland out & Talakai in
Feeney out & Munster in

Is McInnes to Luke too sideways & a waste of a trade as this solves the problem

White Lightning wrote:I own Mbye & was thinking of selling but he's the 4th highest scoring half which surprised me. I might keep him because the last game he showed signs that he's taking the line on more & apart from his bad kicking game which he'll be working on & can improve he might be coming back into better form.

I've just lost patience with him. He did look like running the ball last week but it only lasted 20 minutes or so then he stopped, and he's a speed bump in defence.
My halves currently are Hunt, DCE, Mbye and Cleary.
Cleary is looking like eclipsing Mbye and possibly the other 2, so I can afford to offload him to strengthen my forwards. He was only my 18th man when at full strength.
If he goes back to scoring 50-60-70's I will be furious.

I haven't paid much attention to McInness so i'm not able to comment on him.
I think Luke is getting into some form, however you never know how long that will last.
As a Munster owner, he is great to have in your side.

There is indeed.  Head back out of the sub forums mate and have a look see.  If there is one thing I would say about the Sportal platform is the threads there were easier to find, but obviously this format has a lot of benefits as well.

IMO the HOT chick thread in Sportal was the best thread in the "Off Topic" forum. It was good, clean fun. Haha!
.

It was indeed. In saying that I thoroughly enjoyed the CONSPIRACY thread. Lebbo v Reebee v DL v Krumpy v Glue Factory v GoYouGoodThings v ToothlessTiger...just off the top of my head.

Haha, I have no life!  Bren is leading the count and approaching 5000 and he has nearly twice the likes as me, a few of those would come form the Hot Chick Thread

Are they his fantasies or his conquers?

The Off Topic forum was good for a laugh, and you used to get members from all the other forums (e.g. AFL, soccer, etc) contributing, people who you wouldn't normally come across in the League forum or DT thread.

P.S. We should apologise in advance to KFP for remembering the old times BEFORE he joined Sportal. I know he DOESN'T like that. hehe

I had Grant to KEvans slotted in until KEvans got shuffled back to the bench.  Really struggling to go JWH but I probably will end up doing it.  Just a worry that he played 80 for that score last week, or was that Napa?  I can't open Fantasy at the moment.

Yeah played 80 last week. Was gonna say he missed 5 tackles more than he usually does but that could have been down to extra minutes.

Would have been a solid 60 without those

They are one and the same thing for me at the moment

Been agonising on it ever since KEvans got benched, but at least I dodged a bullet there.

So finally worked out my final team which is how it will look coming out of the byes. Only Tedesco/Friend left to trade in (for Mitchell/Parcell)

Smith, JFriend
Graham,Fifita,JTrbo,Surgess
Harris,Mannering,Merrin,Cartwright,                                                            Whitehead
Norman,DCE,                                                                                                  Cleary
Aitken,Leilua                                                            
Munster,Tedesco,Barba                                                                                  Gutherson

Looking good Booze.

Cheers mate, Like most I am undecided whether to bring in Friend this week or wait, but a couple more weeks won't hurt.
Been doing my head in all week with all the math, don't want to miss out on the Tedesco/Friend trades by waiting but would like the extra points this week from Mitchell.

I don't really like to talk too much about my final team. You plan it and all the trades to get it set before some disaster strikes.

Yeah I've been juggling with Mitchell all week and think I've decided to keep him on. 
Bringin in JWH just so I have the money to get Teddy next week.

Not really sure if he is worth bringing in since I have Munster, Semi, Barba at the back

Toutai us a totally different proposition, he is over 170k. Not a total cashout.

@Studogg. Leuluai trade out for sure, you can bag over 75k.

Remember the He-Man character 'Mana-atArms' ?

I mention it as my 'final' team as i don't have the trades other than direct replacements to change it.

Have done the maths again and i can do this team this week with 2k remaining.
Thinking it would take only Mitchell or Parcell to get injured early or hava a bad game and it fucks my plans up bad, so will make the trades this week.
Enough of 'what if' or 'guessing', the only thing for certain is what I can do now so will bank on that

If Friend has a big game it cancels out Mitchell's extra score and he must be due a meat pie to go with all the tackles on the warriors bigs

So this is my 'Current' team ..Better ? haha

Oh yeah just saying you're tempting fate when you start making plans for the future in Fantasy. I was all smiles when I made my final team last year. Before I knew it Soliola, Lichaa, Johnson and Taylor were out for the season with Fifita getting banned until finals for abusing a ref. At one point Marketo and White Lighting had to become a part of my scoring 17 with literally no backup.

Well given the start to this year I am due some good luck for a few weeks

So if I leave my team with the two trades I've made this week I'll have 12 for 18 and 16 for 19. Is that okay numbers wise, all players are of decent quality. Perhaps a few cash outs to bolster if the need and trades allow??

Thoughts?
