NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 64 - 5:10am

Aight with Tauk out I'm going with Koala. DPP, scoring decent with no tries, great base in tackles, should be a decent trade for Alvaro.

Am finding this round very unsatisfactory so far

was looking forward to a full 8 game round this weekend - turns out I have exactly zero players in tonight's games.

This is what brought me to Simonsson. The points he scores in 17 + possibly as a back up in the run home is probably more beneficial than the extra ~70k he is worth over Schoupp

I'm also on the look out for a cheapish WFB (dpp preferable but not essential). Hopefully Teddy plays, the longer I can leave that decision hopefully a better option pops up. If it can wait until rd17 even better so I can ensure they actually play.

Well that narrows options again.

The more I think about it the more I can't find a trade worth making, which is usually a sign to hold...

Brailey
Tohu iPap Watson
Lucy Matto
Fog Moses
Avo Kelly
Teddy Laurie Hynes

Macca Jones Stefano Roberts

Cleary Pap Walsh Schuster

16 trades, 18k

Is Fog to CHN plus the cash worth it? Pap to Crichton to push Roberts out of the 17 (and then Hynes to Pap instead of the planned Hynes to Crichton)? Or stop trying to force it and just hold?

Hmm same. How dull!!

Yeah same, forgot that the players I would have had in tonight's games are all being rested. Makes it hard to invest.

Oh FFS! Really? Or shitposting?

You should all have kept the unglamorous yet surprisingly useful and consistent Lachlan Croker


Edit : I love how Des bought a HOK and is now playing him in the 2nd row while Croker keeps his spot

EDIT: Nvm I'm an idiot.

Did you click on previous round or somethin?

Yeah, I'm feeling like a goose for trading him out in the bye round. Sure, TPJ scored ok, and fo shizzle won't originizzle, but Croke's 50 points in backup would've saved me risking the unknown unknowns of Dearden or the known knowns of SJ's hamstrings.

Yep, he was also on my short list.

Nothing from Roosters site

19-man Update

The Roosters' side to take on the Gold Coast Titans at Cbus Super Stadium on Saturday afternoon has been trimmed 24 hours prior to kick-off.

Siosiua Taukeiaho and Brad Abbey have been omitted, while Fletcher Baker comes into the starting side in place of Taukeiaho, with Tuku Hau Tapuha added to the interchange.

Can anyone recall why Baker played 53 minutes last round? Got 39 points.

I guess it’s hard for Tauk to backup from watching Origin FFS I’ve owned him since R1.

Back to the drawing board then

Anyone like Gilbert as a SST alternative?

Pretty much Fantasy 2021 in a nutshell. Its all about holding the right shit player, who turns out to be the good shit player though lucky circumstances and trading the right shit player, who turns out to be the shit shit player though unlucky circumstances. Or something like that. In sum, it is indecipherable this year.

The Mayor.

I’m turning Momo into Dearden ytsb (covers Cleary this weeks since I’m also trading Fog) so I can turn Fog into Taumalolo.

I know both trade outs are playing this week but that’s life

Might be taking a punt on Dearden too
