NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 78

It's true, Tolo's scores haven't been great. I could break Moses or Tevaga by trading him.....ooooooohh......

Thanks guys for all your help

So I have come up with another option

Reverse the Twal > Lodge trade and trade Fifita/Taumalolo > Lodge/Brown

Pros:
I have 17 players playing
2 trades remaining
I don't have to rely on Staggs
Twal becomes 18th man

Cons:
I don't have Taumalolo/Fifita anymore
I have to play Twal this week
I won't be able to sell Twal because he will lose too much money and all the other options will rise too much

The other options allows me to sell Twal and keep Fifita and Taumalolo (if Staggs goes well) or get a decent scorer eg AFB/Hunt/Crichton etc.

Thoughts?

Lolo being out isn't so bad for me, now the plan is to play Burns and get a free look at Stephen Crichton, running at Shiba and Darius.

Not ideal to be running with no trades and Fifita + Lolo both in EMG but I think Fifi will return next week and Moses is enough of a must-have to take the risk of more guys going down.

Team this week is the following, ranked 81st (I'm coming for you top 50!)

Cook
Haas, Papalii
Jurbo(VC), Murray, Tevaga
SJ, Moses (C)
Latrell, Bateman
Teddy, Ponga, Wighton

CS9, McInnes, Munster, Burns

S Crichton, Fifita, Lolo, Walters

Lomax is available for selection this week @ nrl physio so he gtg Wolfy.

Nooooooooo don’t say that.

Moses as my captain will score 80-85

Crichton will be benched for Cordner I assume, no one should be trading him in.

Green said the other day he won't be making mass changes to finish out the year. He said he is going to focus on tweaking the team slightly to find that perfect balance and chalking the year down to injuries.

Injuries? Pfft. They've been dog shit, injuries or not.

He just lept Boyle to be my 18th man.

I mean, O'Neill for most the year, TMM most the year, Macdonald most the year and now gone, Kahu for a lot of the year, Hampton most the year, Tolo for a month or so, Barba being a fuck of a buy! It has been a difficult season for them.

Does Steve Crichton have reasonable job security ?

Tbh I'm somewhat considering taking it off him and putting it on Teddy due to all the people hyping up Moses as captain, but I'd be absolutely kicking myself if I did that and Moses got a 90. At this point I'll stick with my initial gut feeling and back Moses in, since he's playing worse opposition and has more potential stat categories he can score in than Teddy does (such as kick metres, FDOs and goals)

Yeah, if I trade him in, 80-85 for your captain is indeed what he will score.

I reckon he does, he got that spot off Whare on form, not injury.

Either way, for me he's my 20th man so even if he does get dropped, that just means I have 2 red dots instead of 1

I’m guessing you have a good record of putting the jinx on?

Yep, looks good.

Is Whare dropped or injured?

But surely you aren't planning on trading Crichton in in order for him to be a regular scoring member of your team? Or is the question for other reasons

I'd probs go Farah, least likely to play again this year.

I'd be really dubious of trading Lolo out too, unless we get proper news of a long term injury.

I'd be keeping him, even if I had a trade to theoretically spend.
