NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 12 - No need for a restart

Nice one, 720 for me, with a nice $320k bank which will really help this week.

The 2 trades per week at the start of the season seems too low, as it is when you most need them.

Won't be staying there for long. Just missed all the week's carnage.

I didn’t check just how far back it goes, but the entire top 10 is owners with teams full of Eagles/Roosters/Rabbits/Broncos with random guns and a 18-21 full of NPRs

Something really weird going on.....

ALL of the top 20 teams have at least 1 player, typically 3 or 4, that weren't named for their teams.

Many of them have the same weird player selections, Berrell, Iro, Geyer, Tuitavake very prevalent.

Might be the same guy that has most of them?

Are you suggesting Roosters will play him less just to lower interest from other clubs? Even if it hurts their own chances? Thats mad bro. I mean the other stuff you said about the edges minutes makes sense but that first part…

Sometimes clubs do this kind of thing mate I know from my mate who works for NRL not specifically on Terrell but just in general terms. Or they limit how many games they play or mins so the price tag doesn’t sky rocket. Lots goes on behind closed doors.

Autofill and then just grab the guns you want?

How are you looking at other teams. It tells me that I can't sneak a peek still.

Maybe I need to try on my PC instead of app.

Will be around $330k with around 0 BE. Was the first bench player on at just 17 minutes in, which is always a great sign for minutes and looks the goods. Should be good 14-17 filler.

Did I just outpod Mattnz?

Lol issue with McIntyre is what if Lolo gets 45-50mins next week and McIntrye 25mins?

Can we trust Payten?

McIntyre will be priced around 24 next week.

668 all out somewhere around 90k. Easily worst start ever. I only scored 50 more points than my 13 man captain less Draft team over in 3b .

450k in the bank for upgrades though thanks to going Moses down to Hutch in what turned out to be a decent decision. Thought I'd be needing some cash to fix issues next week.

Looking at Liddle and Turbo for probably Lolo and Tatola.

Payten is a much bigger prick than Ricky ever was.

I was gunna say it looks an awful lot like they autofilled and then swapped as many Vegas players as they could in and then got lucky that that was pretty much where all the points were scored this round.

About as much as we can trust Fitz and BA and Robbo and Sticky and who did I miss?

FFS. That is the most ridiculous statement I've ever heard. NRL teams are a business. That business is built on WINNING. You think they're going to hide players...just lol. Don't choose this hill to die on. Utterly ridiculous. "My mate"...lol.

He looks to be coming on at lock after 17 mins, with Cotter moving to prop rotation. Cotter came back on with 30 to go, into the prop rotation again.

I cant think of any locks who come on at 17 minutes and don't get a decent run.

If you had said yes, then you definitely win the POD comp.

It's 1 game. McIntyre is no superstar. Who knows why that happened, but I'd wait for a trend first. Any trend.

Live rank of 69069. Hoping that stays.
