    All sport junkies just getting a fix.

    Imagine all the people tuning in that have never seen the game before just to watch some sport only to see big ol' genetic cyborg Payne Haas running around tackling fuckers! haha, So many people would have thought it was Battlebots or some shit.

    Hess owner here and I'm starting to worry. He and Morgan were starting to look good in round 2, now I think his output may suffer. I hope he's up against Hipgrave at least to get some TB's.

    I think Hess benefits in attack, defense not so much.

    I doubt too many Americans woke up at 6am to watch a sport they’ve probably never heard of

    Fair play to some of these coaches that were on it pretty quickly. Couple of the least notable judges in there too

    There’s some good insight there - and makes we wonder about a few of the older, slower, bigger forwards and packs. Tamou may struggle, Turgess the same. The Knights pack could change even more than expected. And the Melbourne Bromwich, NAS, Bromwich, Finucane, Kaufusi group could be sucking in some big air - Tino anyone?.

    From the other perspective, Cook, Murray, Twal, McInness would be moving up my must-have list.

    Chin up Rabbits. Communities need posts like yours

    To Luke though I think it was with serious question

    Yes Foes is brilliant for blocking poster. You will see their name on replies should they get replies but if it’s shit upvoting one line posts you’ll never know they are there and it does reduce your pages

    I know all this because I had one guy called TBO on my list. Unfortunately his drivel was toxic so I saw him quoted a bunch but never saw his posts directly

    Don’t forget Hess is off the sugar

    He is these days fit as a fiddle and lightened again in lockdown!

    It was, he drives me insane, so I'll just do that. He doesn't mean any harm I just don't want to read his posts 50 times a day. Each to their own.

    I prefer the olds rabs, he may also owe me a fair bit of cash if souths don't make the 8 or top 4. Wonder if he will pop up coming payup time.

    Is he gone for good?

    No issues mate. Good feature. Asking Williams to Horse 3 different ways then not doing it is taking the piss. I skip past but you skip the bloke completely. Fair game

    Personally I don't care how many times someone posts, as long as it is quality

    Discussing the same trade scenarios for the umpteenth time adds no value

    But we do go off topic a fair bit in this thread so it's not the end of the world, we have plenty of posts with no value to fantasy

    I also don't want to be responsible for the guy going and jumping off a bridge, so I'll stick to ignore.

    You never know what's going on with people in 2020.

    As I said, he means no harm and causes no harm, just the way he is.

    It seems like the beneficiaries will be the quick players out of the ruck, not so much the ball runner. So as you point out, Cook, Murray, Mciness, will really benefit. Melb really do like to slow the play of the ball down, so it won't suit them, but they also don't concede a lot of penalties.

    To that end I'd add guys in the 2rf will benefit running off the dummy half. Maybe a Crichton, matterson, kikau, whitehead, bateman, tedesco (always around the ruck), Pappy etc.

    People have been predicting the downfall of the Storm for years now. Never happens. Bellamy is a great coach, I’m sure he can adjust his team to the new rules
