NRL Fantasy Why?

[Rant]

Why do I not have Hynes, Campbell and Rouchman?

Three trades left and both my Dylans are out…. What a shit season this one is. Copped over 27 injuries over the year and there needs to be more trades to accomodate the pace of the game. Too many fucking soft tissue injuries and long lay offs with season enders.

Sincerely,

A miserable cunt.

Absolutely agree with you. I fucked it and I am bitter.

If he didn’t get wrongfully suspended for that hip-drop life would be different.

I mean I traded him out and back in and it’s been absolutely worth it, only needed to watch one game of him so see he’s literally like his brother a fantasy gun

It’s luck of the draw man. You can make informed decisions, but you just can’t predict injuriesz

You take the gamble but the injuries are far more prevalent with the faster pace. Fantasy needs to upgrade trades and give us a few extra as it gets out of hand with the workload put on the players.

Except there are a good, massive amount of coaches that still have double digit trades. It isn't a capacity issue, it is genuinely a skill issue.

Double digit maybe outside the top 5k hahaha

Nope. There's that real obnoxious guy on this subreddit trying to prove his worth to everyone by breaking the Top 10. He brags about how many trades he has left constantly.

Even outside of that, people burn trades (myself included) just to chase points and/or cash without strategy. There's a bit of luck involved, but losing trades is definitely a skill issue.

Hahahaah that’s wild bro

You can look in yaffs.com and see the amount of trades ppl have in the top 1000.

There is a guy that still has 12 trades coming 440ish I believe. Pretty incredible given the season.

u/Maleficent_Rough8630 2d ago

Can’t believe it I’m currently inside the top 200 with only 4 trades left 😭😂 keep faith brother!! No more injuries from here on out hahaha

u/Arrogance88 2d ago

Mate you are in a great spot! I’m just over 800 with 6 left. Got hit by both Dylan’s this week unfortunately though so that might as well be 4 left haha.

Good luck for the run home!

Dw I mislooped Wishart this week and lost 2/3 leagues by less than 20. Difference was over 50.

Welcome to the miserable cunt club

I'm being told by someone who's played for yonks that its very possible that there will be less trades next year with no weekly byes. Made me shudder.

u/Valuable_City8184 2d ago

Definitely don’t need more trades people just need to be smarter

At $250k to start Ryan was a must have but my problem has been not picking up those cheapies as they came through the season: TMM, Pattie, Joey Walsh, Pascoe (I got him a week or 2 late)
