Cleary probably won't play reduced minutes. If they were going to do that, why not just rest him completely.

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:
So how does increased minutes impact PPM?
Increased minutes can lead to increased fatigue which in turn leads to a reduction in efficiency and a decrease in PPM.
David Klemmer’s scores are a good example of this:
Each of the dots represent a game and show the number of minutes Klemmer played and the PPM he scored at.
The line through the middle represents the overall decline in PPM Klemmer has as his minutes get greater.
The steeper the line the more drastic a change in PPM, while a flatter line represents a player who might not see much change in PPM at all.
Based on the line Klemmer could be expected to have 1 PPM in 30 minutes which would equal 30 fantasy points and about a .8 PPM in 60 minutes which would represent 48 fantasy points.
However, the data points aren’t clustered around the trend line which does impact on how much confidence you can place in the trend line’s accuracy.
Part of the reason for this is because in Klemmer’s games of between 20 and 40 minutes he only had three games with a PPM above the trend line, while a lot of his 40 to 60 minute games are above the trend line. That’s really odd and it could mean the trend line projects Klemmer’s PPM too low.
If I was asked to guess I’d go with a number slightly higher than the trend line.
Regardless it demonstrates how PPM can decline in reduced minutes.
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.
Great analysis, cheers.

This is logical thinking.
My other trade option is Hunt to Moses, which is probably way smarter.
Will just have to watch Haas from behind the couch through my fingers.

I’m wondering if he just plays 30mins and is pulled off........?
My guess is that Burton will be used to give JFH, Yeo and Cleary all an extended rest
Burton comes on with the middles at ~20 minutes to give JFH or Yeo a rest in a ball play locking role. 15 minutes later the other one comes off with the first coming back on (JFH back on for Yeo). 10 minutes after HT we get Yeo back on for Cleary with Burton to half

I think Newcastle hadn’t decided that yet though like the Raiders still had to decide as well and get government approval etc....
I think it’s 50% for “major stadiums“ (Homebush, BankWest) bit still 25% for Newcastle and others. The rationale is it’s easier to enforce social distancing in all-seater stadium versus one with hill areas. But I think they could probably update advice soon. Currently at 3 days with no community transfer at all.

I’m a bit hesitant to captain Cleary because of Burton, but I’m prepared to look like an idiot when he gets his rest at 72 minutes with the Panthers up by 34 and Cleary on 97 fantasy points

Oh ok, I still think I heard the Knights and Raiders are seeking advice as they wanna let more in.robelgordo wrote:

I heard on 2GB after 8pm last night so in tomorrow’s figures in NSW we have one case from community transmission from an unknown source.

Please explain?
Feel free to PM me if you've got any specific questions mate. But in general, the point of the betting tab is to help you compare odds across 4 sites to get the best odds for first or anytime tryscorer markets. 'ATS historical' is just how many times they've scored atleast one try in a game/total games played since 2013. 'ATS Model' is what our predictive model thinks the players true odds should be based off a heap of factors including recent tryscoring form, their team's match line etc. The green highlighting is a sign it's a good bet, red means it's a more than 125% so a really good bet (although these are just arbitrary numbers). Also if you're into draftstars (daily fantasy) - that's what the fantasy tab is for but we'll have NRL fantasy numbers in there next season too.
You can hover over the headings for basic explanations and we've also released this article to explain what we're doing in a bit more detail: https://sporttechdaily.com/analytics/predictive-analytics-applied-to-rugby-league-looking-at-try-scorers-in-the-nrl/

Moses has averaged 61 since returning in round 11. Better than I thought.

Hedge your bets. Keep Cleary but captain someone else (McInnes?).

Thinking DCE or Cook. Leaning towards DCE.

yep, either would be good. DCE could run riot under new rules? I'm guessing Warriors vs Manly day game will be high scoring.

I think I'd go the other way
EDIT: Just looked up Paulo, and hasn't scored >50 since R12. Eels are very likely to have nothing to play for by kickoff (if Raiders reserves lose, they are 4th) so could give him less minutes
Titans will be playing hard and last week was a blip for MoFo, only his 2nd game under 45 since the restart

I reckon Mofo bounces back fantasy wise this week. Coin flip though mate. Eels will come out hard.

Yeah probably an unfair question to ask because it's a coin toss but you guys have swayed me towards Fotuaika starting. Actually thinking about the Eels frf both Evans & O. Kaufusi have seen more game time.
