I've only got Cleary and Mansour tonight. Dragons games always destroy me.
Not getting on Hunt was my biggest error this season (once I started understanding the game - plenty of bigger ones in rounds 1-6 lol)

I was very close to picking BS9 as my replacement for Arrow this week. Decided on Fitzgibbon in the end with 3 straight 50s barring HIA but would have preferred middle player but had to weigh up JS
Would have summed up my season trading injured Arrow who I owned for 1 week and then needing to trade BS9 after 1 week.
Tonight I got 7 players so should be big boost in rankings with: Cleary, Yeo, JFH, Crichton, McInnes, Hunt (c), Carrigan

Gee I’m storming back into the top 50 when Captain Cook scores 107 this week.

Ended up with Haas+Munster>Matterson+Teddy
Off to a flyer with Matterson, Moses, Papy in play last night
Think I might be the only person that captained Koroisau so will be watching tonight intently
Expectations from most might have been a bit high on Papy. He is currently leading all fullbacks in line breaks and averaging 47. A 60+ average scoring almost 1 try a game was never sustainable

Yeah, word. My main focus in Fantasy is my work cash league and my opponent last night had Gutho and N. Brown in his side so I wanted quiet games from them, but as they were both in my DFS team I was urging them to go big.
But yeah, happens in every match without fail.

Don't know if you guys dig a bit of rock n' roll, but a group of musicians I'm into were doing this lockdown project this year and covered a bunch of cool tunes... and this was one of them.
Just listen, don't watch the clip... It's all wicked cringey, but I'm kind of into it. Brings back memories, in a style of music I can get down to;
They did some really good covers. Pontus rips on the guitar and Bjorn has come a long way with his vocals. To hear him develop from the Steelbath/Chainheart death metal days to what he does now is great. Soilwork is still one of my fav bands even their style today. Night Flight Orchestra are nice too.

I've been looking through old threads a lot recently and I don't think anyone was expecting him to maintain 68 average from last year. People, including myself were high on him, but not by that much. Also his playstyle leads to LBs (he was 3rd for LBs last year despite much less games/gametime)
He's still outperformed his starting price by 6 points and the majority of higher average WFBs either way more expensive (Teddy, Ponga), not available at R1 (Edwards, Staines), not discussed as options by literally anyone (Gutho)
Only 2 above Papenhuyzen in average for WFBs that were discussed in pre-season were Nofo and Hughes both were have had their share of low scores as well

Good to see you hanging in there this season, it's been a big learning curve for you. I'm sure you'll see a big improvement in your fantasy game next year.

Matterson was a great pick! He was a machine last night.

I AM!! I NEARLY HAD A CORONARY LAST YEAR WHEN SOUTHS PLAYED STORM IN GOSFORD THEY HAD ABOUT 4 CRUSHER TACKLES ON OUR PLAYERS AND THEY ALL GOT OFF AND ONE OF OUR PLAYERS GOT CHARGED FOR A CRUSHER, I WAS THAT MAD I NEARLY THREW SOMETHING ACROSS THE LOUNGEROOM!!
And it took Gerard Sutton 9 penalties in a row to finally sin bin one of their players. Yet in some Souths games last year after about 4-5 penalties our bloke was binned, different rules for the Storm and cheat Cam Smith who gets away with murder every week that’s for sure. Refs need to be more awake to Smith instead of giving him his own way! ARE YOU WITH ME WOLFIE ARE YOU WITH ME????
See it from the other side Bethany and how much Cam Smith gets away with for your mob. It sickens so so many supporters form all other teams. Kudos to Smith for getting it down to an art and getting away with all the BS but it ain’t right.
YOU KNOW WHAT WOLFIE WHEN WE PLAY THE STORM I KNOW WE PROBS LOSE BUT I SHALL SIT THEIR GIVING IT TO THEIR PLAYERS DIRTY PLAYS AND MR CAM SMITH FOR THE FULL 80!!!!

100% this. Bare minimum he was a middie, has turned into what most predicted. 3rd WFB. Nofo was priced much higher than Papy start of season alsoCamo123 wrote:

The only good thing about this game was Papy getting junk TBs to get up past 55
Where do you get those TB goggles that comes with forward pass prescriptions?
