2017 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 32

If Idris is out I'll have to play Kelly (Raiders away & on the bad edge) or Talakai (Broncos home). Tbh I don't like either option.

928 this week, sitting way down at 7600 overall.

Thinking Jacks to KNik, not sure about trade number 2.

Could cash Yates if he's a chance of playing, don't want him bleeding more cash and I want to jump on Whitehead

Hahaha, well, you know what they same about minds and all. Lol. Who's on your radar mate?

Whitehead for Kbrom and I'm not sure. Might be able to afford Mannering if not i'll grab Bodene

How about yourself?

I see what you did there!

891 seems under par this week. Tolman and Walker come in this week should give me a decent scoring boost and set up for byes

Suli passing his breakeven, relieved I held onto that trade and Kelly too instead of cashing out to red dot Drew.

Someone deserves some credit for a post regarding holding onto such cows, but too lazy to go dig it up.

The gist being that it only takes one 50 odd score for them to kick back into gear and continue making cash.

I was nodding my head in agreement whilst reading, having seen it plenty of times before, but in the back of my mind I was thinking "Yeah, but still, no fucking way Kelly scores 50".

Just fried up a couple of eggs to wear on my face this week.

I'm not sure what game you were watching there Booze. Teddy was the main focus on the Tigers attack. Final pass for two tries, countless times he got them on the front foot and kept them in the contest. Meanwhile Gutherson kept the Tigers in the contest with third rate goal kicking - he didn't have a bad game and had some great touches but there's no way that he outplayed Tedesco.

69 points for Teddy, with his usual update he'll most likely crack the 100.

Gutherson had those silky passes when he chimed into the line and put players on the outside which resulted in 3 tries. Definitely had the better first half and look more involved.

Plenty times Tedesco could have passed the ball but tried to everything himself. While great for fantasy and had a couple good runs, crabbing across field isn't exactly an effective tactic.
The tigers looked better when playing more direct using Moses/Littlejohn.

Gutherson had to kick a few from the sideline and can't be expected to nail them everytime.

Anyways Tedesco will probably crack 150 haha

Oh ffs, just looked at my leagues. Expected to lose them all but to lose to rabs by 1 point... That's a kick in the nuts. One that not even the participation prize of beating bren makes up for

upgrades/downgrades to come you could be upset over nothing

This might be you mate...

Spoiler:

@Random can you keep my avatar Rapana themed please? 2 decent scores in a row with Rapa waving the Welsh flag

I'll be looking at Whitehead and maybe Surgess or someone there that can offer decent potential as a keeper and bye coverage. I may bite the bullet and go Taumalolo just for the points grab. Some homework to be done there for sure yet.

Nah i looked back though the matchups and i think just about every difference is from much earlier games. It's a chance if they still do the weekly review, but slim.

Cheers @Onthebeatpete but booooo to the updates, I was watching Teddy closely and I'm certain the have underdone him this round. Guess it evens out for all the 3pt slapsies they gift him.

No worries
Yeah, I totally agree, I thought there were points owing to a few players, but especially teddy.

Yay, back in the 7000s again. It's the little victories

@Bronchose nice work on the tonne mate. Bullbender hit it last week with a couple of others I think as well.

so long ET, you tried your best but not cutting it, been a soldier those first few rounds so props for that.

Welcome aboard 2 years in a row whitehead

Off topic but does anyone have any good Best Man jokes for me while we wait for lockout?
