NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 24 - Responsibility is not a good look for me

Who’s Morgan?

Justin Morgan defensive coach

Hoskings is going to have a field day down the Raiders left edge. Especially with HSS named again.

Firmly on my trade-in radar.

Might still trade Tohu out with the uncertainty. Surely he doesn't play 80 and a 50/50 late out playing on Sunday is not ideal

Finding TLT reasonably unpalatable

tell me if this is stupid or not.

Going for head-to-head and should win my next 2 matchups? Getting in Hynes after his bye (most like for Arey). Thinking of trading out Arey since he is most likely losing cash and Loiero most likely making cash.

TU: Loiero to Hosking (100k bank for Hynes)
TD: Arey to Hosking (350k bank for Hynes) - play Katoa/Hands till Hynes

i was 1 of those suckers & to think if i didn't trade him in i would have played akp so it's a double lol

Priority of trade:

TU: Ford
TD: Hosking

Hmmm

Hosking at an awkward price range in the sense that all my players around that price range are playing well.

Assume others here are in the same boat.

"Lachlan Croker, who has a shoulder injury, is a concern but has been named although Karl Lawton could replace him again if he’s ruled out by game day."

Its a wait and see, anyways you can just sit on him for a few weeks/until the bye
-8 BE just has to be named in the near future to make some more cash

I think both are close to must haves this week. I'm getting both in myself. Even if Hosking only gets 2 weeks thats nearly 200k in price rises and Ford looks like a cut-price keeper with Dpp

If you had to get 1 this week and 1 next, go Hosking this week.

The only way I can afford Hosking is if I do something super sideways (if not backwards!) like Bird>Lemuelu. Im just not sure I have the risk averse palate for such bold manoeuvring.

Yeah it's real first world fantasy problems.

Same only way that I would even think about would be

Latrell and Doorey to CNK/Perham and Hosking.

Feels Backwards

Trade out your Titans players folks

I would absolutely get both this week if I could but I need Brailey as one trade due to having no other HOK

Leaning towards Hosko, Ford next week if he keeps it up

If Tigers line up like that Matamua looks really interesting. Has shown he can put up a 60 with decent minutes in the trials.

Only 2 forwards on the bench.

I feel that it's a sideways/backwards move you make to accomodate another trade like getting in a Cleary or Hynes, not for a guy like Hosking, who scores good in fantasy but has no proven record of being a regular first grader and no guarantee of playing next week.

But this is also how I end up crying all over my keyboard when I spend 750k each on Carty and Hosking in R19 and R20 to complete my gun EDGs

Would people consider Boyd -> Hosking, too sideways?

Cheers for the reply mate. My problem is I have only Boyd as HOK, so one trade is gone.

I feel Ford has better long term JS and has DPP, but Hosking is a quicker short term cash grab.

May need to just accept you can't catch them all and let Hosking be the one that get's away... although is his JS all that? Sure he looked great, but so did Garner the other week and Martin is a lock for the other side.
Looking at Hoskings 2nd row stats tho, damn he is a gun scorer when he gets the gig.

Bit of an awkward situation... might take this to the thumbs. Hosking and Brailey are in my team by the start of R5 - that's as certain as the sheer handsomeness of a pug.

BUT! Doorey, Trindall and Blore. Who remains? I was actually hoping Trindall wouldn't be named so that was easy, and then with Doorey still on the bench that makes the obvious two. But now Blore is out. With his BE and minutes he's been playing, I'd probably have rated him the best chance to still make money, but he's not going to make much money if he's not playing.

I'm very torn. Any excellent insight, or just toughen up and choose Doorey and Trindall and hope Blore is back on the bench next week? Surely Trindall doesn't play more than 5mins at the end, unless there's an injury?

I'd rate them in this order of priority to trade out-

1. Doorey
2. Trindall
3. Blore

That seem reasonable?
