My aim is to stop people choosing two CTR trash bozos and ruin their year. Mates don't let mates do that kind of funny business

I have absolutely no evidence to base this on but I don't see Croft being as dominant on the field as people think.

Milford literally did all the kicking last year and has developed a reasonable kicking game at worst I reckon he does 50% of the in play kicking.

Halves also sit majority of the time on opposite sides of the field and I feel the ball will go Milfords way close to the line more then 50% of the time.

I'm stoked we bought Croft but can't see him being in my team come round 1.

Milf joined in 2015. Hunt avgd 57 that year.

It doesnt mean alot though. Hunt did all the kicking.. milford didnt have a kicking game at all then, he does now

Milf averaged 43 that season. Can't think of any higher scoring halves pairing the last few seasons, seems the cap is around the 100 points combined between the 2 halves.

Love that!

Interesting to see how Curran goes in the All Stars. He's been talked up a bit at the Warriors.

Lol, sounds like someone else is tempted and doesn't want to be

Not tempted. He's a lock in my team.

He's got to establish himself as part of a new spine and please don't post anything more about him Matt.

I am thinking more about his old spine.

When Jarome Hughes played three games in the halves at the end of last year his base stats (tackles and kick metres) immediately increased. He showed glimpses of being a reliable scorer maybe being undervalued by around 8 to 10 points.

Got on Stoinis to make a 50 at 3.25, good result

Its the right question to ask, not sure on the answer. I wonder if there is an effective cap on what any pair of halves can score across a season. If Milf is going to average 50+, what does that leave Croft with as his upper limitation?

Some pairs seem to be just fine with two high scoring halves- Reynolds and Sutton used to average 50 together in the halves, and I recall Sezer and Kelly used to do quite well too. It helps when you have one eating kick metres and the other branching off into a tackle or tacklebusting role and certainly Croft and Milford can fit that mould perfectly.... provided Milford doesn’t kick too much

Funny you should say that, we were channel surfing and came across it and I said "Ah yeah, is that thing still on?" Bascially from Australia day on I'm into fantasy and break that up with some Netflix and pub trivia (we've started going again recently since the kids are a bit older and won last night )

Good bet. I captained him in Supercoach on the same hunch. He’s such an emotional player. As soon as he missed out the last few games and then got left out of the national teams I just knew he was going large to make a statement. Wish I thought to back him in for dollars with my confidence.

Yup, you could just tell hed go big tonight.

Didnt actually watch more than 10 mins of it though, like Mulvy said, kinda tune out around the 26th every summer.

Watch the video. Wild...

What?! There's another side to the story? Who'd have thunk it? Nice to see someone actually running that other side of the story too.

Not that I like Reynolds and not that I'm into his outburst in the video, but there was obviously a lot more to the story than that little snippet.

Gotta be said, though, I can see why dudes keep getting themselves into awkward situations with that young lass.

Same. Also had Ferguson most runs and 100 on stars h2h.

You just jinxed Ferguson mate. Although Stars winning by lots.

So why were you so chuffed for winning trivia Mulvy? Wow, great question, I'm glad you asked!

My favourites were (because they seemed to be not as widely known, a POD if you will)

What is the degree of tilt of the earth's axis?

What is the lightest known metal?

And go! Also, cool people don't google this.

23degrees
