NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 70 - the Happy Birthday Random thread

I have Nikorima to Cleary and Munro to Fifita as today's trades

Both reversible of Cleary/Fifita don't play

But if Fifita doesn't play I'll have to trade in another Titan/Eel or play with 16
Not ideal as I want Fifita so it would cost me a trade just to get a score 1 week.

NAS looking like a nice little Cleary enabler next week. A score like that makes the decision easy at least.

He gets one more chance for me against the Knights, then he's an easy trade to DCE/Murray

With Yeo out I need a new mid trade plan this week.

Would anyone here bring in somebody other than Tino? Money not an issue.

I love Cotter and Murray, but not great for this week. Harris has a bye incoming, Mofo I love and is cheap.

But Tino seems sensible.

Yeah?

Gee in that event, I'd strongly consider playing 16. Unless you don't have a cheap dud in your team yet, could cash down for multiple upgrades next week. Only Moretti is cheap, Haas/Hands kinda cheap, probably Hands. Sivo has become cheap. Probably too many Eels.

Fifita should play anyway..

Yeah, at this stage of the season a trade is worth more than 30 points.

Seems like a fun trade to me. No more byes. Can go on a run of big scores (already on a run of big scores though, and priced for that, does it continue? Hopefully)

That's the rub. Whether Tino's first 8 games at 50 is a better forecast than the next 6 at 70. Two tries in first sample, three in next.

Likely to be a bit knackered after Origin, but playing for a big paycheck elsewhere.

Eh, it's a more fun trade than Mofo

Agreed,  more fun than Mofo. This time of year,  I'm slightly less interested in their average,  and a little more interested in their ceiling.  What could they score if they go on a run for a few weeks?

Not going to spend one of my last 8 trades getting someone I only want for a week. Will just be annoying as I traded out Bula. the order of games this week was terrible for planning trades properly.

edit: unless we find out early that Fifita isn't playing but Cleary is, I can trade Munro to Cleary and play Nikorima as well.

I’ve locked Fifita - cant see him not playing, it’s more how much he plays, and given he was replacing a red dot I’m ok with that. Even if he scores another 15 that I traded to avoid last time

I’m waiting on Cleary, but will be an awkward Matto or Hops tradeout. Was really hoping for something more concrete at 24hrs, I’d have been more comfortable removing Teddy, or a few others

I think I have to do VTW to Fifita. Gives me one less Dolphin to worry about next week, still leaves me with 3 but can have a look at moving Isaako on perhaps. We will see

Yes you do

349/6.

Big day for me with 11 playing including captain. Would be okay with another price rise from Cogger, otherwise he becomes Cleary. Held Fifita through the byes,  hoping he plays but can cover if not. Speaking of which,  would you place Lemu or Graham first?

Evening all, team analyser and player ownerships should be updated to end round 19 now. /karmafarm

Awesome, cheers mate!

Didn't give Grant his either. Hopefully gets updated again on Monday.

He's already got 20 points more than Robson, dont be greedy

It's a shame Lucy has a bye soon, would be a nice purchase

Stupid ass neighbour's dog and a 2 point downgrade to Sandon post updates. Has me in a mood to trade. Maybe some sideways action with Cook and Horse to Cleary and Fifita. Bring Horse back next week for Butcher the boring prick. Playing 4 second rowers doesn't really seem optimal anyway.

SJ v Hynes tonight. 

Might be best served watching this one without the wives/partners around lads

Yeah will be pretty tough to resist temptations for that one. Maybe a "toilet break" at halftime.
