NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 67 - You get an injury, you get an injury, and you get an injury! ☹

He'll probably sit out the week, he could barely stay on his feet after it happened and Fergo had to keep him upright. Given his history he might be out longer but no need to panic trade yet.

Unfortunately for the Fantasy guys, "Stats Perform" don't really have an online presence for people to vent their frustration at (and most people wouldn't know who does the stats in any case), so as the public face, Lone Scout/CK have to cop it all.

They also didn't help themselves a few weeks ago with the Latrell situation by saying (paraphrasing) "we don't control the stats but we'll forward the query on to our stats providers and expect a change"
After Latrell lost his TA, it certainly gave the impression LoneScout/CK have some control over the stats, even if it isn't true.

Giving the bonus trades a few weeks ago also helped cement the impression that if you complain about it, you can get results.

So in the sense, they have brought things on themselves.

Would be interesting to know if stats have gotten "worse" or if people are just more vocal about complaining, but it seems to me its as bad as its ever been for people whinging about stats.

Won't lose value and I can hold trades in case there's more carnage in the next week or two.  

If I want to finish in the top 1000 this year (Currently 572), I think I'm going to have to play the long con here.

Will probably end up low 700s. Munster and Moses also looking like dropping further.

Doesn't matter if your cash generation sucked when you can pick up Taupau, Moses, Munster, Matterson on the cheap

I complained on FB over the Mann no TA because most ridiculous non TA I think I've seen.

This is NRL Fantasy FB last response re stats

"Emmett, trust us.. we know it's a talking point lol
It's good feedback. We'll ensure it gets to the right people in prep and planning for 2021"

Another person comment re Mann no TA I found funny

"Yet Lomax gets a try assist for throwing the ball into a Sharks player who drops it into Ravalawa who scores "

People have this perception right or wrong that some popular players get awarded ridiculous stats and others get ignored for legitimate stats

At least with a physical injury the healing process is easier to see, concussion is one of those things where now the risk is they may rest him or be a late out or another knock in game and he sits out

Definitely a risk which sucks as he is such a gun
