2017 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 47

Anyone else trading in Mansour after last weeks effort? Fantasy aside it was a solid hit out for his first game back from injury. NSW will have a selection headache for game 3 after Turbo and Sauce have a few more games under their belt.

Would getting rid of JDB to bring in Fifita be a silly idea?

Better trade in this week (for Hayne, or maybe Cotric)

James Tedesco, Nathan Cleary

Other one will probably come in round 16

At this stage I have potentially 17 for next week, but that includes MWZ, Slater, Wallace, Vaughan. Hopefully most of them play for me

Yes. Espically since JDB is a goodu chance of playing R15

I have the exact same trade dilemma this week. At this stage I have gone with Tedesco. Not sure why really, I think it's just that not having him in my team makes me more nervous than not having Cleary. And that my plan from many weeks ago was always to buy Cleary in round 16. BEs suggest that Cleary first might be the better option though, so I may change my mind.

cleary's BE is 29 teddy's 39 id go tedesco maybe ..... just. either options sweet. i'd at least want a look at hayne at fb he could be gold. ive got 12 next week with vaughn and slater
i'v pretty much conceded slaters gone wallace is 50/50 but somthing drastic would have to happen for vaughn to get named

tedesco could go huge against the roosters im tempted in captaining him, but i'l probably stick with fifita and watch him run cam over all night. tb tb tb tb lol

Fifi vs Smith sounds like an avatar bet if I've ever heard one. I'm willing to put mine on the line believing in fantasy rule no 1 if you're willing to go against it. 1 Week?

Not base price but could do worse than Copley mate

JWH - Gurgess worth a punt?

When you compare the popular JBrom with Gurgess he looks terrific value all of a sudden. Similar points expectation for 100k less. Big caveats to his value though...

I don't like seeing Tyrell and Clark hanging around now on the reserves list and Musgrove has made a difference when he's come on.

Rabs might be best to comment here but Tom has looked a bit more the safer option and more disciplined this year, which puts me off George getting the 55+mins you'd want to see as a first-17 player.

There's always the chance of a Turner return to prop if they wake up to themselves and put burns/Jennings/Goodwin on the wing, Johnston back to full back and Sutton into the backrow. A lot of moving parts in this sentence but every armchair coach and spectator knows this is exactly what he should be doing in order to get Walker back in the 6 jumper

All in all too many ways Gurgess can see reduced mins for my liking, so only a trade if it is ok for him to be 18th man or NPR after the byes, as he's not a bad AE

I'm no longer set on keeping Elliott for round 18 unless Graham is ruled out for a length of time.

Any thoughts on cashout options for elliott?

Shame Stimson has gone missing as he would have been ideal playing 15/18

Does everyone looking at Cleary already have Munster?

danseels1985 wrote:Cash out Niko and go Graham to Fifita? Means I have to wait til next week to bring in Cleary

Hey mate - just going back to your Q last thread. If you want Cleary, why not go Cleary to Niko and cash out Idris instead of Elliot to afford it. I wont go into why I think cashing out Elliot now is a poor option, but in your case surely cashing out the guy who is out for the season makes more sense.
