    Who else is down to 16 like me and has to play Hammer in that 16?

    If Cleary is out I’ll be down to 15.

    I did that last week and then Wiliame played (apparently) Very Happy

    Happens pretty much every time but I never learn....only have 17 but have set up a loop to be able to react if Wiliame does play (most pointless loop ever - HTF vs Wiliame)

    anyone know if they’ve decided yet how many will be allowed into McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle week 1 with it looking like the Knights host a home semi against Souths? I’m thinking of making the trip up.

    Didn't they say they will have 50% capacity for finals?

    I think Newcastle hadn’t decided that yet though like the Raiders still had to decide as well and get government approval etc....

    Most likely. It's either that or genius.

    I still think there's just as much chance Burton comes on to rest Koro when the Panthers are up 30-6 and Cleary has 40 points in goals and try assists alone.

    Did you pick that team specifically to be the undisputed King of round 20? Looks like you should be primed for a rankings boost.

    haha I thought that last round and still managed to drop ranks.
    No Haas is not going to help either. Traded him for McInnes who I captained and scored me 49 points Sad

    With his PPM a bump from ~50 minutes to ~60 sees him go from borderline to top tier FRF gun.

    MS touched on this, but I thought I'd put up a bit of analysis that the great Steve Nicholls put together a few years back (which is as relevant now as then).

    How does increased minutes impact PPM:

    The key here, is generally if you do chart a players PPM vs minutes then you typically see a decline in PPM with extra minutes (largely fatigue/energy conservation).
    If a player has a scoring rate of 1PPM for 50 minutes, but that drops a little to say 0.9 for 60 minutes, the scoring shift is really only 4 points (50->54), much less than the 10 you might expect if they were able to maintain that PPM.

      Current date/time is Sun Nov 24, 2024 12:13 am
