NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 11 - The case of the mistrusted team lists

Screw it taken the punt on ITT in centers - couldn't stomach HSS and Alamoti

For those wanted to anti-POD me (a historically good choice) I have committed to the following trades:

To'o > Carty
Smith > Robson

Does that stand for 'Infamous Tommy Talau'?? because that's who I'm drafting in off the bench this week.......I can stomach it

Anyone else?

Hammer will punch out 13 this weekend.

He'll punch out the entire raiders starting team?

I think we need an over/under on how many runs Hammer makes this weekend

20 last week was by far the most he's ever done (but also the least he's ever done for the Dolphins) so is it going to be made sustainable by sheer force of will of Hammer owners wanting big points.

Still undecided on him, but leaning Thompson because trading Hammer in leaves me with $0k in the bank.

Also Izaac Thompson just seems like the kind of guy I always ignore and always regret. So rather than doing what I've always done I'll change it up and regret trading a guy in rather than regret ignoring him

I guess in a couple more fantasy seasons the neuroticism begins?

I think my favourite was Carty going very close to a banner.

Yeah, a ceiling of 90+ with a try or 2 sounds totally crazy - considering he had an 87 two seasons ago at the same club in 54 minutes in the same position, with a try. What was I thinking?

Simonsson into Eels 13 for Lumelume

I think you forgot about our "focus on the most recent data points" rule

Also 87 < 90+ but that's just me being a pedant

Grant against the Dogs could serve you well

I have Tago vibes around ITT - just going to take a shot.

Leaves me 231K in the bank towards my Hynes or Tohu fund.

I would be incredibly happy if that happens & I wouldn't normally interject but my expectations are tempered by the fact it was against the 2021 Broncos.

Two or three scores in the 40s would be tip top thanks

Yeah Thompson has those vibes for me as well, will look at grabbing him next week.

It is his 8th most recent 40+ minute game, so very recent of his games of significance.

Yeah Tommy has some def upside, I didn't go there myself, already had Ala and HSS, a third nuffy CTR was too much. I think I overrated Alamoti and would have gone Talau instead with a crystal ball.

On the upside I started with Carty and BMM and they seem to be flavour of the week, so I can't complain.
