NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 82 - TPJ's punishment not getting sacked

StormTrooper96 wrote:Broncos try scorer markets are ridiculous!!! Staggs $18 first try and $3.10 any time. Fifita $4.33 anytime. Once Api is added to the betting I might have a nibble on him for First and Any Time.

Oates any time try scorer @ 3.00 is actually pretty juicy.

He's 18.00 for first try as well.

I remember back in 2015/2016 he was around $6 every week haha.

Who scores more on the run home?

Rudolf + Bateman
Lomax + B.Siro

That 2nd century v Sea Eagles they completely dominated winning 42-12 (probably got maybe 15-18 points for try) and he still got 700 KM

I imagine it was due to large possession of 60%

Yeah every chance that if Panthers dominate Cleary does well, but we saw what happened to Smith/Munster in the Storm Eagles game when they don't get among the attacking stats.

Slim chance the same could happen to Cleary with the left edge being so dominate and Manly's right edge being terrible

Rudolf + Bateman easily I'd think.

Absolutely!

Rudolf = Siro
Bateman > Lomax (who is great is his own way)

Still tossing up my last trade, a centre under 500k to replace Latrell.

Leaning towards Hoppa atm.

Does Talau play again this year? I could keep him and trade O'Donnell>Lumelume and have Talau as cover if be comes back

Other option is Talau to anyone under $407k and it's very slim pickings haha

I’m thinking similar.
Lumelume looked good last week, runs the ball hard, but only 1 game to go by.
I can trade Randall to Lumelume, allowing me to upgrade Rudolf to Papalii, or I can trade Rudolf to Crichton, both options leave Talau as backup should he resurface.
My third option is Talau to Hopoate, with my only backup being Hampton.
My preferred option is Randall to Hopoate but I’m 1k short.

A couple of years ago I was watching Easts Q Cup and Lumelume put a hit on someone and then stood over him and said "YEAH GET IT, BITCH!".

Based on that you should trade him in.

He will play 80 and go large.

Not gonna lie, I'm kinda sold on him now

Please can some of you check out the TU/TD thread I think it’s been forgotten a bit this week.

You sure it was the Easts? We only signed him this year… before that I am pretty sure he was with the Sharks feeder side.

Forum traffic in general is down, you won't get the level of response that was happening a month or 2 ago.

I think if you are out of the top 1000 or even top 500, and no worries with head to heads, you should NOT captain Haas or Cleary

Papy or teddy or anyone else, is better then Haas or Cleary. rank 1000 is the same as 5000 at the end of the year, dont get caught up in it.

I agree to some extent, in that it doesn't really matter, so why not have some fun.

But at the same time, if you're still playing the game, I assume it is to improve your rank, so why wouldn't you just captain the person with the best chance of scoring the most points? Regardless of what other people are doing.

To me that is Haas or Cleary.

Yes it is very very veerrrry likely Haas and clearly go large.
But if you are ranked 1000, you still will be ranked 1000 after the weekend....

With only 4 weeks left, its impossible to claw back an inch at a time.

Unless you care about personal best ranks,... then I guess, go for it. But after playing this for many years now, from my experience, I dgaf about my rank in any year, unless I am getting a prize, or at leat a chance to win.

With 4 rounds left, rank 500plus, you are not going to gain many ranks (if any) by picking the same cappy as all the others in front of you

I’ll be your case study mate. I’m sitting at 1000 and will have the C on Haas the rest of the year.

Let’s see where I end up

Been putting the C on Cook/Smith all year and it's backfired more than not.
