NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 42 - That round was magical

Someone in chat group said Jolliffe only a stinger. Might mean reasonable discount price to buy in Rd 14, compared to last few weeks price

so you're saying he could have done a Haas and come back from the dead and earned my team some more fantasy points?

950 for me up another ~1k ranks

Only planned trade is Stewart to Ipap with May a hold until I see what happens with the court case

Will be getting some match fitness into the legs of a few of the spuds this week with Waddell, Russell, Strange, Cole all getting a hit out

BREAKING: Carty has officially entered my team for 2024, the party is officially launching this Saturday night

(Waddell to Carty)

hahah. zero faith. negative faith. lack the trades. lack of options. just trying to hold ground into byes. we'll see what happens though. may punt. J Brailz looking pretty good of late, hope that keeps up.

Who is the party pooper?

Last week Frank Ponissi said Hughes might play Manly, much depends on how he trains this week.

Grumpy Matterson owner? (there are a few)

PS It wasn't me who downvoted, although I am a grumpy Matterson owner

It was me

Cartwright's a massive dickhead and the Carty party stuff grates me. Also sucks as a footballer.

Correct. I believe Bellamy was quoted as saying they would hold him out till after the bye.

"Bellamy also said halfback Jahrome Hughes (calf) was unlikely to play in Round 12, with the club likely to hold him until after their bye in Round 13." - NRL Casualty Ward

Was that before or after Munster went down

I'll be 17 (3 Knights + Chevy) assuming everyone is fit (they won't be). Probs just Chevy to Wishart/Koula and hold fire.

Also outraged that they took 5 off Hopgood. All his points seemed legitimate and reflective of the actual game state, what gives?

So you're telling me that you didn't trade him in last season?

or during round 1 apocalypse

Still love ya mate Wouldn't mind it if he wasn't such a knob.

I traded Doorey to Carty last year before his price got away. Had to suck it up for the cash gen

Wouldn't matter, we have elite undefeated 5/8 Grant Anderson to fill in this week

I didn't get him, just couldn't swallow my pride until it was too late. In hindsight was such a super obvious player to begin with

I would guess I may have come 1st if there was a no-Carty league in 2023

I'm still holding out for the Rein Train to chuffa-chuffa into town

The Rein train ran on a popular line (with a select few) but unfortunately the upkeep was not economically feasible and it was decommissioned last year.

I think they may have sunk it somewhere off the northern NSW coast in the hope of growing an artificial reef.....it's what Mitch would have wanted.

I'm using my trades this week on Milford and James Maloney
