This season is killing me. Currently 11 of 14 players scored under their average this week. Waiting for the good week...

He's a great option. I already have KPP, Armstrong and Brailey so can't afford to get another Knight.

Thanks Damien. Appreciate your kind words. Still a work in progress. I forgot to go through my team line up at the end. I'm looping Piakura and Brailey. How's your team looking this week?

Thanks. He definitely looks promising. Hopefully he can stay in the team a bit longer.

@@nrlfantasyfreak Thinking armstrong, weekes and AFB. thoughts?

@@damien9984 Have you got Bateman.he will get mid dual rnd 14. And even if hw doesn't he's good value. AFB no real value but I had him last year and they kept using him as a decoy so he's dead to me.lol. Armstrong definitely. Weekes is next best cheapie. But I want to see one more week. As Raiders could change things up after the bye.

Yeah Crichton seems like an easy play. I need to see Blore play 80 first. But the fantasy pro app says Hutch gonna make bank...😯. That's how you know your team must be good if you can sell Hutch and Smith lol

Wow! That's awesome. You have a chance to win it. I will have to add a segment to the video to track your progress. I almost backflipped and got Grant for Cleary this week and would have skipped on Blaize. I would have captained Grant too. Well played.

I had a quick look to see why you were doing so well compared to me. No Haas or Luki in your team. That's two big outs for my team. So there is still hope for me. Just need Murray and Turbo to go down for you 😂

😂 Thanks though, I've been pretty lucky with my decisions so far. It's all worked out well.

Yeah it's a tough round for a lot of people. I read Cleary could be back round 7. But good trades. I'm struggling to stay strong with the safe play in Fogarty. Getting a bit jealous of you getting Api. 😅

Good trade. Ive had bad experiences owning Dyl Bagz so I'm never getting him. Dyl Bagz has high BE too and I want to see him and Blaise in action in the halves. Probably get Blaise and KPP next week.

Thanks, that's very nice of you to say. They are definitely the two to get. I have no clue to be honest on Hosking. Never try predict Ricky. But I'm hoping for around 40 mins.

Definitely not. He is the talk of the town. This is where we can learn from my mistakes from last year. Even though I'm not confident in his minutes he is too good not to take the risk. Just like Cartwright last year. The Roosters rotation was all over the shop this game. Low mins for B.Smith, Wong, Hargreaves so there is a chance his minutes drop. But he is so good that by end of season he should be a gun keeper.

Yeah good point. And the roosters don't have a bye round until round 14 which makes him even more valuable.

Tyrrell avg 36 mins when Collins and Hargreaves playing. Is that good value?

Great Trade! That is what you call getting ahead of the game.

Good effort made some smart moves. I support the same three teams as you. I joined your group as Munter United. I would keep Wong and Tatola they'll come right. I faded Cleary/Hynes/Pap because they had no value but just bought Haas because Harry Grant cost me big time even after his little aussie battler unicorn points update. I got 796 and that was good for 2800 or so and heaps of the top teams seem to be round zero joke teams. So kia kaha you're still in striking distance at 724.

​@@markmarsh3638 wow great start. Not so great for our Warriors. Sharks played well. Look forward to battling you during the season. You definitely didn't get much from my videos.lol. Lots of pods in your team. I reckon the value in Cleary is when he Avgs 73 my captain points will crush you.😅

I don't believe in "pods" or "keepers", after analysis of the draw and job security there is only good value and bad value. Player names are not important t's a money making game. I'll get the "keepers" when they bottom out.@@nrlfantasyfreak

Totally revamped after trial 2 team lists. Salmon, Seyfarth, Brown, Aitkin, Kini in.Curran, Hands, Wong, Stewart, Cotric out

And Schuster out for Burbo

Thanks man. I will try.

Good work. Got any tips for me for next year?

Top 5k is good. Hopefully you can stay in top 4k. Then aim for top 1k next year.

Hey Lawrence, I'm thinking of doing a paid league next year if you are keen. Then I can discuss the players in the league and do videos with them If they want...

@@nrlfantasyfreak yeah id be keen mate

Bugger! Well Mahoney is a trade. Depending on your finances I would go Cook or Lussick for hooker. Otherwise no one is really jumping out as a must buy.

@@nrlfantasyfreak I was thinking of going mahoney to cook and crichton to hughes but i am still unsure haha.

@@tomato4527 decisions decisions. Just come up with pros and cons and then live by them. Lol. No one can predict what's going to happen. Especially leading up to finals

I think I will just reverse trade. I can cop one week without Cleary

Would kill me if I brought him in and then he got injured again.

6 trades 😍. Use them!

@@nrlfantasyfreak I will be

Trade CHN for Taumalolo if you havent already got him. Also Blore is worth buying for CHN and use the spare cash for a gun upgrade.

Ricky is motivating CHN. I'm sure he will be back in the starting team. He adds spark to the raiders attack. But his work rate lasted week was not good enough.

Cleary and a cashout. Double points for captain.

Doueihi will outscore Rapana easy as long as he stays in the halves. Up to you if you want to gamble on Madge keeping him there. I have to because my team is running out of steam and he looks like he could maybe match DCE and Hughes.

Hynes is a hold for this week. I reckon Douehi can match Latrell easy if not smoke him so I would go SJ to Douehi. Oh wait.... That's exactly what I did 🤣

@@nrlfantasyfreak I am just unsure why to hold Hynes if I want to upgrade him to DCE? I don't really have many other trade out options other than: CHN, Watson, Burton, Peachey or Fogarty even. But they are quite lower in price than Hynes. I am just thinking of holding all for the rest of the season.

And also, I have had Doueihi previously. I brought him in on the week where he scored 100 which was great, but it went downhill from there very fast and I had to sell him after his -4, I am just a bit unsure whether to trust Michael Maguire at this point.

@@tomato4527 that makes sense. My only worry would be if Papz has a relapse and Hynes keeps his spot then you have wasted a trade on a 50+ player. A mistake I have made. But can't go wrong with getting DCE I guess. It's just if more injuries pop up you have less trades.

@@tomato4527 fair point to.

Hey Tony, overall comp finishes in regular season. I'm not 100% but I think playoffs are the same as NRL. And if not they should be 🤣.

@@nrlfantasyfreak Did some research... playoffs are same as nrl

and also in terms of your team, wouldnt it be smarter to trade tohu to cleary knowing that he is out for the season and moses is coming back in a week or two?

Also what are your thoughts on haumole olakau'tau and or radley. Have 6 trades left and 191k in the bank. wondering whether i should drop tohu to one of them freeing up cash to get cleary soon??

No, Pap should be used as impact off the bench. That is the smart way to bring him back. Yes Tohu to Cleary next week is smart. Just originally I was going to trade Tohu to Mahoney but decided to save the trade.

I wouldn't waste trades on them. They aren't guns or cashouts.

@@nrlfantasyfreak Thanks for the help!

Depends how many trades you have. Personally I think you can sell and gamble that he doesn't return to being the main half. I didn't see him being the main half originally so I don't think he is essential anymore. And Fifita is a must own.

@@nrlfantasyfreak I havent got many trades left but i NEED fifita and without selling one of my real big guns... averillo is the guy i can trade without having to do a double trade to get fifita

@@trellybo1t sounds good. I'm the same. I don't know who to trade to get Haas.

I like the look of Young but I would have to look at stats. And I don't know how secure he is.

I think you have to go Olam just for the certainty of his position. And the Knights aren't the strongest side. But I would be keeping an eye out after origin for possibilities that tino or fotueka get rested which would make peachy a really good option.

@@nrlfantasyfreak Thanks bro exactly what i was thinking too... who are your top centre options to bring in? Ive got averillo,burton,olam and peachey but thinking of selling one maybe two of them

I'm hoping it was a one off. But they did win so you never know. But I would say he gets at least 40 mins for 40 points

I hope you went Rapana!

Jackson will get you more points from now till the end of the comp because he plays a minimum one more round and he will definitely play more minutes.

Thanks and tohu a trade

@@abrahamachrafi6206 I was tempted to trade him this week but I have so few trades. It all depends on how many trades you have. I have to hold. And pray he is the first guy to come back early from an injury...

So basically if I have 11 trades left is it enough to trade him out

@@abrahamachrafi6206 yeah I would

I must have changed it.lucky I did 😁

@@nrlfantasyfreak lucky yes ahaha

Check out my Instagram

I'm a Warriors supporter so I've always wanted Curran

Definitely Averillo based on recent form. He is a must buy. If his role changes so be it. But currently he is the dominant half at the dogs and his scores reflect that. Curran is still good value though and there aren't that many good players available for round 17 so that's why I'm getting him now.

and also, is it too late to still get averillo.?

Mulitalo looks like a luxury trade. He is a 30 point player even if he scores tries. He's not a gun (50 point player) and he's not basement price either.

Averillo is a tricky one. The dogs aren't exactly setting the world on fire so there is still the risk of the halves getting changed up. His form is amazing though but I think there are safer guns to pick up. I think Ramien over Mulitalo. Ramien can pump out good scores without tries and there is the potential he goes big over the next 5.

Looks like you were on the money!

I ask because I am also in the same predicament (7 playing)

There arent many guns playing round 17 so no point blowing up your team for one round.

Yeah ok thanks for the reply mate. Goodluck for the weekend round

and also, i looked you up on Instagram and saw your drawing. it looks great!! keep up the great work.

I read somewhere (maybe lonescout) that going by last year there is a way better chance of origin players playing than not playing.

@@tomato4527 thanks. It was fun creating it. Have to put some more work into it though.

@@nrlfantasyfreak Thats great news to know. Thanks for that

Flip a coin. Hynes has goal kicking but Burton has general play kicking. Not sure who Goal kicks for Panthers.

I am now. Thanks a lot 🤣
