Does AJ go to FB and latrell to 5/8 with walker out

Bozzin8r

Benji slot in at 6

Peeking Ducks

Any cheapie CTW to look at this week?

Eric Cartman

Don’t think so mate. Sadly Saab fus and simmo have been absolutely shit

Peeking Ducks

Sure have been 🙁

The First XIII

Tu: spend all my cash upgrading 5/8 to Luai
Td: spend it on upgrading CTW to To’o

Owen27

would be easier to see the balance of your team but would lean towards To’o

FatBoy94

Depends who your current 5/8 and ctw are

Sally M

Magic number this week has dropped another 200 points, down from 8575 to 8376.

Started the year at 8859.

To calculate a breakeven, use the following formula.

Breakeven = ( ( Player Current Salary / Magic Number ) x 3 ) – last two scores.

eg Paphenhuyzen = ( ( 751800 / 8376 ) x 3 ) – 73 – 197 = -1

Reposted from Team Scores News and Chat Round 4

Mel

Thanks Sally. Can I ask where you got the magic number from?? NRL Supercoach is saying his $PP is $5724. Have they just not updated this?

The Pretender

$PP is a different figure. Magic Number is the rolling figure that is used each week to calculate a players BE.

Probably best to avoid thinking of them as the same thing.

Mel

Thanks Pretender. Yeah I was definitely confusing those numbers. Cheers

TU: Luai & Leniu/Simonsson
TD: Mahoney & R.James

Owen27

Simonsson a couple tries away from big price rises

Hope everyone had a good Easter Long Weekend. Thinking of trading out:

Fui – Condon (going early i know just freeing up cash and they average almost the same)
Fus – Sami (Has a good run will have a low BE)

Team After these trades:

Brailey, Liddle
TKO, Welch, Uto, Leniu
Gus, Harris, Barnett, Tino, Riki, Condon
Cleary, Walker
Watson, Shuster
Capewell, Fergo, Sami, Laurie, Staines, Niu, Simonsson
Teddy, Papy.

1.3K ITB, any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.

uncledami

Kelly back… Sami will go to wing or bench/out of team

Owen27

That’s interesting, didnt sami play origin last year? as well thought Don went off badly injured. but thanks for the insight

Mighty tigs

Sami will swap sides and go to Dons wing I would not be buying him

liverpoolbronco

Fairly easy this week going Fogarty to S.Walker, Fusi to Fergo. 25k short of trading Staines to To’o

The Pretender

Good trades still.

FatBoy94

Pray for more fergojunk with me! Haha

TSH

Just a post to say how annoyed I am Cody’s decided to have a break against the broncs this week. 

HC92

hey guys and girls
I want your thoughts on Frizzy. As soon as Pearce got injured last week his involvement in attack was diminished. Many of his runs came from Pearce. Can I get some opinions on this … Do you all think Frizzy was wasted due to all attack Dragons tried running down his side or without Pearce he just couldn’t seem to get involved?
If Frizzy is a no go zone due to the pearce injury, what you all think of the below:

TU: Frizzy to DFif
TD: Hold Frizzy and sell Welch for Paulo

Cheers

Owen27

I would be holding Welch as welch. 71 in his break even for the next couple of weeks. so should still make money. i see that as more of a luxury trade

FatBoy94

Personally both holds for mine

MeatTornado

I’d hold Friz and see what happens next week. Their game was chaos with injuries, Ponga is supposed to be back this week too, so worth seeing how that effects things.

dirty_bhunt

Please help! my CTW are a disaster what should I do?

Braily watson
taukeiaho welch / leniu uto
chriton barnett tino / tohu riki magoulias
cleary / osulivan
Calker / schuster
Laurie niu stain simonsson / roberts fus saab

Thinking of going saab>sualli & fus>williame or nuff

Owen27

How much cash ITB before trades

dirty_bhunt

$27, 700 ITB

Owen27

Not really much you can do then besides those two trades to generate cash for following week, cant think of a CTW that would be worth it around the 300K mark

Tommy Smurf Sangsta

Those two trades do absolutely nuttin for your team. You stay stuck in a hole with cash and who is to say Williame will outscore Fus next week. I’d be trading Leniu or Welch and moving Tino up and playing Riki who seems good for a solid 50 every week. Not sure who you can bring in, but gotta be somebody to grab. Then upgrade in the CTW. Otherwise you’re just condemning your team to a crap score every week due to the CTW. You got more chance of getting a steak from Wenin than those 4 scoring 70+ in… Read more »

dirty_bhunt

Thanks very much for this advice. thoughts on welch> J topine (if named) via tino & saab >fergo
That leaves $49, 700. Next week i can go Fus> sualli & niu> another large upgrade

Why are so many people already trading out Teddy and Cody walker?

Mane

Missed the sharks cows game by choice

Teig Wilton a decent shout?

Owen27

still have nikora and talakai to come back im pretty sure. so dont know his job security

gareth

Hoy > ????
TU Munster
TD Luai
Comment Mahoney

Owen27

only thing i would say is, eventually have to start bye planning and not sure is Mahoney will get picked with grant their. just food for thought, all are good options, i like munster

Dragon

I’m liking Luai and Mahoney. I don’t think either will be picked for Origin but it’s still early days. Both have good draws. Mahoney is $30k cheaper

Tommy Smurf Sangsta

Cody is probably first choice at 6 for NSW or maybe even Jack Wighton, but there is the possibility to go with the Penrith halves if the Pennies keep on truckin’. I thought they may have a few hiccups to start the year but they are better than last year.

Dragon

Yes, they definitely could. Fitler likes having settled combo’s, he also likes big body’s. Luai can hold his own but he isn’t a Wighton physique nor is Cody. In saying that if the Panthers keep on purring like they are atm Luai might be too hard to ignore.
In response to Owen, if memory serves, before covid the 18th+ men were released back to their clubs if they were playing that weekend. In these covid times I’m not sure, which would be an interesting one cos if Luai was named 18th+ man, would he be released?

Owen27

Luai now with Keary out could be in the squad

gareth

I reckon Mahoney makes the Qld side. Harry can play a bit of middle if needed. Luai probably misses out just for NSW.

FatBoy94

Who are the best cheapie options going around this week? Slim pickings I feel

greenmachinejake

Fellas interested in your opinion on this.
Who averages more between now and the end of the season?

TU TKO
TD Junior Paulo

The Pretender

If Sam Walker takes over the kicking, Paulo. If not, its pretty close but I think TKO.

greenmachinejake

Have a similar view, looking to move one on this week to free up some cash and it’s a really close call. Matto should be back soon so he should demand a bit more of the footy so leaning towards Paulo at this stage. Cheers

Tommy Smurf Sangsta

What happened to Matto on the weekend? Wasn’t he named to play?

Bozzin8r

Ruled out in captains run because he wasn’t 100%

Tommy Smurf Sangsta

TKO doesn’t play origin, but TKO slightly more of a crock. Paulo had his issues last year as well. Haas of Pain could drop a bit of coin and be juicy in a 3 weeks.

HC92

why not both? Absolute guns

Boycee

Thinking of going Capewell to Too this week with Too’s breakeven and form. Any cheapie forwards or outside backs to downgrade?

Tommy Smurf Sangsta

you could go the waiting game with Suaalii. Have you got Sammy Walker?

Boycee

I have walker and Schuster. Suaali might be a go

Roosterblah

Unsure on what I want to do for trades this week. Can go Sitili straight to Tohu Harris (about 10k short of getting Dfif). Alternatively I could go fusitua to any ctw under 468k, but with the way my cow are set up right now im fairly happy playing Capewell, to’o and Laurie each week and taking a punt on the 4th cow. Any thoughts much appreciated!

Downgrade hunt too walker and upgrade either saab or fus

dirty_bhunt

kick saab. Fus is slightly less of a risk

Albert

Hunt to Walker and then you could upgrade one of Staines, Fusi or Saab

SC_FINEST

i tried it with saab but was short by 2 grand. So who do you think i should trade staines or fusi. im not sure

Chaisa

I’d definitely trade Fusi first. Staines could still make some more cash and there’s the chance he moves to fullback as well (and getting more base stats)

dirty_bhunt

welch out, tino up, J topine in. Saab >??

Albert

TU: Fusi to Suallii to free up a bit of cash for trades over the next few weeks
TD: Hold Fusi and hope he can manage to do something against Manly.

Other CTW is To’o, Momirovski, Laurie, Capwell, Niu and Simo

Tommy Smurf Sangsta

We don’t know when Suaalii is gonna play. If you were making 150+ from the trade you’d feel more comfy with it. But how much you gonna make with trading the Fus. He’s gonna score soon… surely!!!

greenmachinejake

Definitely would hold Fus for now, NZ have a nice run of games coming up so hopefully Fus can grab a try in one of those.

dirty_bhunt

good point
