NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 19 - I told you so

Simonsson is fine, he’s just a winger who has missed out on the big plays for two games.
I remember when Sivo debuted a couple years ago and scored poorly for two games- a bunch of people declared him a dud and sold him the week he bagged a double. Just stick Simo in the emergencies and forget about him, eventually he will find the line and kick start prices rises

914 (+maybe 25points in updates). Feels on par.
Still trying to piece the team together, cows are doing well.
Got screwed over by the late Koro news, but Hoy's 44 wasn't too bad as cover.
I'm looking at moving Koroisau and Tino, plenty of cash to play with this week.

I think Tino will come good later in the season, but I can't wait that long (of course...next week he'll bag a double after I trade him out)

I hate that fucking Wag team so much!

946 here

Moylan is an out for me. Also not liking Milf, Lam and Averillo. Will have to see options on TLT.

That might be the best phrase ever posted on this forum

Post of the year contention that phrase.

951 plus/minus a few updates, looking a bit better than last weeks effort.

Main issue at this early stage:
It’s fair to say having Lam/Milf/Croker/Moylan vying for my 2nd HLF position is problematic. In hindsight, I should have gone the Chad.

Trent Merrin and Ryan James winding back the clock this season

960

Pretty good since I traded in Milford this round.

I’m gonna spend all week staring lustfully at Lil Pap’s thighs... then ooze in frustration as the Cheese i fed to the dog knocks out a tonne


edit, 965 which with Avo, Lam, Leinu and your mum is a minor miracle.

Looks like Lam updated couple of points

Updates are in:

Teddy 72
Lam 35
Keary 82
Collins 64
SST 48
Tupouniua 70

Laurie 49
Nofo 19
Douiehi 35
Brooks 42
Liddle 58
Offa 31
Luciano 50
Twal 54
Uto 36

935.  Below par as I dropped ranks from week 1.  Tino, Milf, Avo, Lam, Turps, not good.  Tino and Lam on the chopping block.

After those updates I have finished on 934 so not the best round and I’ve lost around 1000 places so just outside the top 4000.

Avo, Davey, Turpin, Lam let me down.

Have to flick Davey off but only have 33k spare so my options will be limited.

I’m a bit bummed now that I didn’t get Alvaro.

I think Turpin and Lam are holds and I shouldn’t panic on them but they’re frustrating me a bit!

Nofo doing well to bring his price down for me.

However, the Tigers looks so bad I'm not sure he's worth the punt this year.

Well, gosi is now averaging more than Moylan, lol.

Had to go out and get my required outside time today so missed both the games. Any relevant fantasy news that cant be gleaned from a quick look over the stats?

943 ish for the week. Shitbirds in my side probably get another week to show their worth. Maybe.

944 and just outside the top 10,000. See what final scores do.

The good: Riki, Brailey, Captain Chin, Teddy, Fifita, Bird

The bad: Brooks, Turpin, playing Leniu over Jensen, Tino

The ugly: MILF

Planned trades: Who knows, but most likely replacing Averillo.

I'm in the same boat with Davey with 29k spare. We can still grab alvaro though. I had a shortlist with like Alvaro, Bird, Opacic

Pretty happy with my week, finished on 1010 pending updates, which puts me at rank 1466 overall and 691 for the round, so a lot better than last week!

A simple Lam to Alvaro trade is all I intend to do after lockout lifts, and even then I don't necessarily have to do that.

942. Roberts being out worked well for me, as Niu was in my emergencies, and there's no way that Roberts would've scored more than 46 against the Roosters.

Lam and Averillo underperformed, but I'm not really in a rush to boot them. Lam is my half cover on my bench, and there's not many cheap centres. I have Davey too and obviously need to get rid of him, but there's no one really jumping out to me right now within my budget as a straight replacement for him. I might just keep him in EMG until either CHN or Verrills come back in. No real need to burn a trade on a player I'm not sure I'll get much out of.
