NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 22

I can just do Ravalawa to someone 228k or less and Kahu to Bird. Thoughts?

Team stands as

Mahoney
Fifita Taupau
Arrow Murray Lane
Morgan DBrown
Nikora Bird
Tedesco DEdwards Burns

Niukore Garner Lawrie

Keighran, Burr, Roache, Holland, Mikaele.

Anyone see anything else I should be doing. Makes sense to basically trade Lolo to Teddy with the lack of cover at fullback and upgrade someone to Bird.

Those are tremendous trades, very jealous

Best current value I can see is Twal, if he continues playing 50-60 minutes, kid will average 48-55. Plus best tackle completion rate in comp so you don’t have to get infuriated by watching him shoot out and miss 2-3 tackles in a row

I'm probably buying Twal & Bird this week (selling Burr & Holland). These trades solve my 2 main problems (1) Bird solves my Holland problem & (2) Twal solves my poor 4th reserve problem where I'm currently rotating Burr, Sele & Brown/Keighran.
I'm hoping Twal getting 54 minutes is a sign of his future minutes. I could buy TPJ over Twal but imo TPJ is still a bit of a risk & this enforcer role he was playing against the Cowboys usually results in missed tackles when he tries to put big hits on & bounces off the defender.

Sivo against Ikavulu could be good, with Jennings back should see some more traffic down that way. I'm a bit scared with Broncos left egde against Rava's edge (Sportingnews ) predicted Rava and Pereira would be swapping edges.

Won't make much difference.

Dread it, run from it, Corey Oates tries still arrives.

Jordan McLean does look pretty good

Burr to wadell and edwards to teddy? Too soon on burr? Not worried about teddy dropping in value more as edwards most likely will match it. With teddy more likely to come good

McLean has come shockers in him, Twal much safer and dual helps more. Plus slightly cheaper

Depends on the other player, if Xerri, for sure

What’s likely to happen to Waddell when AFB and paseka are back? Any manly fans on here have any idea where he stands in the pecking order?

And who do we think benefits the most from Taumololo being out? Hess back to an 80 minute players and averaging low 50s? I don’t even know how he’s priced currently tbh

Scott, Mclean, Cooper, Mcguire, Hess still a good forward pack but they will struggle a bit without lolo’s Carries to run off surely

I had a look at last season's data.
Is there a reason why his RMs are down in round 1, 3, 4, and 20? That seems to be the biggest difference in scores

Lisone is suspended for a couple rounds, which will probably help Burr minutes

Didn't Waddell only get extra minutes due to Sironen not returning.

Not sure new club, different role? That boys pack is stacked so hard to nail down carries when they get spread. Like I said Twal much safer IMO

He got injured Round 4 and returned in Round 20.

Round 1 was his first game for the cows so I’m assuming it was just an adjustment to a new team

Round 3, not sure but most likely The Storm targeted him being a defect player.

Haha yeah it’s like looking in a mirror right!
You’re probably right but I feel like I have to bring in Bird or it could really bite(famous last words). We must be really close on the rankings,still fuming that I didn’t back my Eels man Brown over Keighran or I think I would be sitting in 15th,lol oh well that’s fantasy

Again, a lot of people would have had the same decision and gone Keighran, I'd argue 80% as well given he scored 38 points more than Brown in Round 1. No point reminiscing over what might have be. Granted you did acknowledge this fact but you probs wouldn't be 15th. Everything aside, well done on being so high so early

Yeah, you're right. I'm just trying to do my homework on POIs that are named on here. Especially FRFs, as I'm running Lawrie with no cover.

tightrope:

Maybe, but it depends on who he get replaced with.

Thanks mick, that does make some sense

Hess becomes an 80min player again then the cows may as well kiss the season goodbye.

Asiata may get more minutes. McGuire may shift between 2RF and lock.

Host, Brown, Keighran. Which two do I go with for my scoring side?
