NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 20 - Who needs halves ???

Lam L. Croker
Averillo Roberts
Teddy Laurie Niu

Turpin J. Brailey Liddle Riki
Simonsson Davey Cleary Pap

Maybe Davey to Alvaro as 1 trade, move Angus to MID, Riki to starting EDG. Makes the team look instantly better and much easier to loop correctly with your weaker players on the bench.

For 2nd trade, I would bring in Schuster for Simonsson. Those that dont get Schuster now are likely to regret it.

Play Cleary next to Schuster, loop Lam and Croker. Swap Pap and Laurie, and loop the 18 position with him playing late in the round.

Is it worth burning nearly 120k to get better cash generation

Biggest worry for me is I already own Fuimaono and there’s always that chance that Simonsson scores some tries to kickstart cash generation while also leaving me with only Niu as WFB/CTR cover

Thats not what you are moving them for. You are moving them so that you aren't stuck with the scores of both Leniu and Uto each week. Instead you get to loop them every week. Being forced to take guys that are going to average in the 30s each week is how you go backwards.

They should use Denan Kemp more often, he's given them a voice without manipulating it and is spreading all positive vibes. Love to see it.

Use that platform to call out bullshit.

I think I might go for it, think pros outweigh cons for my team

Pros:
Better scoring in 17 this week over Gosiewski/better 18th man should any injuries arise each week
More cash generation
Better MID cover (only MID coverage not in 13 is Utoikamanu - have Crichton & Fuimaono in starting team)
Potentially Alvaro stays until R13 - extra bye round player

Cons:
Burns most of cash reserve that could be used to upgrade 17 (however best upgrade is to Turpin currently and just short of guaranteed keepers)
Simonsson could Sivo 2019 me and start a try-scoring run (I mean even if Simonsson scores 50 he makes less cash than Alvaro this week with a 35)
Already own Fuimaono so reliance on Hook not changing team
Means Niu only WFB cover so "forced" to play Averillo in CTRs

I have Simonsson and I have no intention of moving him on right now. He's a winger, just got to wait for the tries and price rises to come. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
