Social NZ Warriors NRL Fantasy Competition 2025

Is this from Jamie's forum? Or the thing you pay for?

Just from observing scores both on this forum and there. It is not a quote I have cut and pasted.

A lot of guys who post their scores on the Jamie forum are the top guys so I don't know what an average score is - I think he said we have 60 of the top 1000 in our Jamie Forum. Jamie himself is 2000th this week. They give each other a lot of advice and crowd source ideas for cheapies etc. It is a good little community.

Going Fogarty and Iongi to Drinkwater and Couchman this week I reckon.

But I gotta say there is a devil on my shoulder trying to steer me away from Drinky.. I've got 15 trades to use, so I feel like I have the wiggle room to take a shot..

Bro 15 is heaps. That's pretty much 2 trades per week for the rest of the comp.

Great trades and 15 left is heaps - well managed

Which of these trades is better. I need a small cash down to make another trade happen but because I already have Colquhoun as a potential dead spot I need who ever I get back from this new potential trade to be a green dot and an "OK" scorer

Option A)
Iongi to Hiroti DPP WFB/Cntr

Option B)
Kautoga to Reece Walsh WFB

I favour Option B as Broncos have a schedule I prefer, but Horoti is DPP

Reece is guaranteed game every week.

Hiroti might have a gig until KL Iro comes back.

My trades this week I think are

Kautoga+Purdue to Turbo+Teddy - This option means I need to get a center/wfb and a half in round 18.

Kautoga+Iongi to Turbo+Teddy - This mean I need to get a half in Round 18 and then a WFB/Centre in Round 19.

I am thinking about option 2, as I rate Purdue higher than Iongi and then only needing to trade 1 per round is better than twice in round 18.

Thoughts?

I think Purdue is a great learner. And there is a good chance he will rapidly figure out standoff at NRL level before Iongi masters full back. Which of the two of them has the better run of opponents over the next 3 ot 4 matches. I would let those match ups make up mind as both of them are so young that they are doing better against weaker teams and top tier teams are overwhelming them with superior defensive systems that smother them and they are both too young to counter.

Actually I took another look and my permutations are a bit off

Kautoga+Purdue to Turbo+Teddy - This option means I need to get a center/wfb In round 16 that also plays 19 and a half for round 18.

Kautoga+Iongi to Turbo+Teddy - This mean I need to get a half in Round 18 and then a WFB/Centre in Round 19.

That wfb could be drinkwater, but he's a bit expensive. Would need him to drop some cash this coming week...might have to be a double trade next week too if it's him....

Moses injured and Luai going to start at 6 for blues - shouldn't have too many fantasy implications -

Burton must be phewing.

Also, sad about Sharpe if true.

Will be hilarious if Galvin, Sexton and Mahoney all have a blinder in the weekend.

Mahoney isn't happy at all after last week. Could be implosion at dogs soon

It's all crazy. Burton and Galvin are pretty much the same player, Sexton is not a hooker and Mahoney is a proven 80 minute performer.

 

[rugged]

Couldn’t believe in the post match interview Sexton said he hadn’t been told where he would be playing when Galvin came on and thought he was joking when Galvin told him to move to hooker. Galvin also confirmed he hadn’t been told where he was going to play till Ciraldo told him when he was about to come on.

Ciraldo seems like a great coach but it is crazily disrespectful to let your starting half find out he’s playing hooker via the 19 year old kid replacing him.
If you wanted to avoid the bust ups surely you would have a better communication plan

Wonder if they will have an all in wrestling session this week to sort things out?

 

[tyrael]

I'm sure it happened way earlier but it's the first time I've seen this.



100% owned.
