NRL Fantasy 2018 Thread Part 25

If Gosiewki gets a start this week is he a better trade in than Maloney for Carty. Or just grasping at straws here?

Also Hiku at home to the Cowboys, or Thompson in NZ against the Storm?

Will keep putting my team together week to week so I don’t let down any of our leagues obv.

Good season all.

Yeah mate, I agree completely.

There are elements of this new format I like, for example I like not having a set structure to who I have to have in my team outside of the starting 13, and I like the ranked subs thing. But its fucken dumb that people can loophole each week and the rolling lockout means that to do well in this game, fantasy basically has to be your life (which is ironic). With two kids, two jobs, and friends and family I actually want to spend time I'll have to have all the luck in the world to do well.

I'll be the same as you. I'll try and sink as much time into it as I can, but inevitably I'll probably bail at some point!!

Actually Im off to California soon... Time difference could make this pretty tough. If Im still in the top 100 I might need someone to help me out! Any takers?

Got moved around which isn’t his fault, has scored minimum 46+ when playing edge forward previous season but like you say the frequency of his positional switches are too much now and scores when in CTRs have been buffed with tries! he was flying scoring wise when playing lock and same today for first 20 mins at least on the edge but too much risk involved for me now I think, nothing worse than seeing a player start well think you are in for a decent score and by no fault of there own get shifted and scores don’t move for 20 minutes

Are you keeping the faith in him Welshy or trading?

Welshy wrote:

Will probably keep the faith mate, will more than likely have to deal with Arey after this week and find a suitable replacement

If you putting Rapana in NSW team surely SJ gets a look in at half and RTS at FB with the form he's in

I think i was the first to start name-calling mate. I'm blaming the scotch, but it was still wrong. I'm sorry, and I'll be more respectful in future.

Loomer wrote:I know I'm in minority but people complaining about the loophole meaning you have to be logged in 24/7 Is ridiculous. I've used it once for 26pt gain. I've set up for it twice and both times didn't need to do anything because first scorer went alright but if I did I had full 24 hrs to do a 2 minute max change. Then there's the chance it backfires. You don't like a 25 score then you loop someone and they get a Mbye like -1.

I will help you out whilst away mate but you have to at least keep team going for league purposes on your return

It's all good mate.

Thanks mate, that would be awesome.

Im not in any leagues cause I knew there'd be a high likelihood I wouldn't play the season out (new baby recently), but as long as Im doing well, and have a chance of beating Rabs then I'll stay in the game!
