NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 79 - Refs own goal

44 isn't too bad, honestly. You're talking under 30 points under the difference between that and Hynes' average. Even less when you take into account whoever you would trade Hynes to.

Your potential loss if you have another spot fire (eg Cleary rested next week) would potentially be worse. Depend on how many trades you have left. If it's your last I would make a move next week instead.

Just my two cents.

If you still have your three trades and use one to get someone like DCE or maybe Tapine then probably worth it.

44 is probably fine this week as well but I’d trade away (I’m in a couple of H2H finals & pushing for a top 100 spot so that may be Influencing my decisions with your trades )

Haha yeah I can just imagine next week being bonkers so having 3 trades might be a very nice buffer to get a leg up.

I’m also in a couple of H2H finals otherwise I’d probably be happy to hold

3 trades left so there is room for one trade this week. Had it pencilled in as Murray to Haas but probably a better idea to do Hynes to Haas if this muscle injury keeps him out next week too

He is locked in your starting team if you VC'd him, but if you have a half on the bench (most people do), that half will loop in for Hynes and as long as you have enough green dots in EMG to shift up, then you'll have 17 players.

So, Johnson becomes Hynes and my big 18 green dots goes down to 17.
(Small mercies, at least I'm still playing 17 this week).

We missed a trick not nominating the Dolphins as our team

1st was 303rd, 2nd 364th and 3rd 876th coming into the round. Club prize is a $250 NRL shop voucher, so not club specific prizes like it was a few years ago.

Surprised that noted Gold Coast Titans fan Milchcow wasn't all over this.

I also thought he'd have a WAGs team or two in there.

They're not used to starting with the same salary cap as everyone else

I mysteriously dropped out of the club leagues about 5 years ago and haven’t been in one since…no idea why.

Hmmm..

Five years..

Around the time that fanhub took over...

Found the guys who traded out 'locked' players when their system was broken

Fanhub took over in 2014, or maybe 2015 from memory?

Maybe so, but the website/game redesign by fanhub happened at the end of the 2018 season.

7/391 for me as long as Hynes and Garrick are confirmed out (seems to be the case) and I have D Russ and H Graham looping in for them.

Kris being a late inclusion means I have 17 players so it's all coming up Milhouse!

Hopefully D(C)E proves on Sunday that neck >> chin

Ahhh, got ya.

And not only that, Seb Kris is now a green dot, to cover the loss of Hynes (in number of available players, if not in points)
