He's an average footballer and worse fighter. Couldn't knock the head off a beer.

Are State cup suspensions applied to NRL games? Might explain why he was being such a tosspotBren wrote:Surprised Memo isnt suspended, last time I saw him he was trying to fight anything that moved.

Mamo full back
Aku and Ross on the wings
Gagai probably Chanel Mata'utai
They may move a second rower into the centres if Chanel isn't ready until Sione comes back from his one week suspension.
Jaelen Feeney gets a run if we are lucky

Im more concerned about his apparent anger issues. Unless he is just angry that he plays for the Knights

Great question however I do not know the answer, sorry. However you would think common sense would mean a suspension is applied to all grades otherwise you would see players keeping their match fitness up by playing ressies.

Been doing some reading on game theory in fantasy
Here's a good article
http://www.pokernews.com/news/2014/11/game-theory-can-make-you-money-in-fantasy-football-too-19910.htm
But basically the idea is that you pick someone like James Maloney over Johnathan Thurston.
Thurston is more likely to score well, but he'll also be much higher owned so if Maloney outscores him you are suddenly in a good position.
Works a lot better in daily fantasy than a week to week comp, as the chances of Maloney outscoring JT is much better for a single week than over the whole season. And why I think a POD strategy is not that useful in fantasy as we play it here, but can be useful in daily fantasy.
It's also why there was a bit of controversy last year in US daily fantasy with employees found out getting inside info of player selection percentages from rival sites. If you know the ownership percentages you can work out the best combination of low ownership vs scoring potential.
So it would be better applied to the end of the season when you are trying to find any way to get a leg up on your competitors is what you are saying. Very interesting article Milchy, cheers

I think the switch you made with Lichaa and grabbing JTurbo is very wise mate, Lichaa is at worse 5-10 points worse than Seg, But JTurbo is probably 10-15 points more than Lawrence/Alvaro
Great hooking combo
Great Front row
Great second row, although im not massively sold on JDB
Not a huge fan of the Gun and 3 cashie half route but thats just personal preferance
Can see why you have gone Croker, GUN ctr but a little too up and down for me, Raiders will have to go very well for his avg to increase much more
Good WFB with potential
Find me a FRF/2RF $429,000 or cheaper that you would pick instead of JDB? I am actually more sold on Lichaa now than Segy anyway.
Only other half at this stage I would go with on price is A Reynolds. Don't like midrange halves. Am going to pick J Littlejohn in centres so if I need to trade Jnik I have more chance of getting a cashcow centre in.
Have picked Croker because I reckon he will be the top scoring Centre overall this year, provided Dugan doesn't play fullback, and reckon the raiders will go real well and have a favourable draw.
Best I could do with the money left at WFB. Hoping RTS/Tedesco start slow.

If there is a year to pick Croker then this is it. They have an easy draw and if Sezer and Austin can gel early on there will be plenty of goal kicking opportunities. Unless Rocky decides to give the goal kicking to Sezer...

Depends what the rest of your team looks like. If you've got a decent amount of other money makers in your team and you want to upgrade one of your scoring players to a set and forget keeper then I'd consider doing it.

I've seen Vaughan mentioned as a possible improver but thought why not Boyd at cheaper

There has already been an article floating around about Croker pulling the captains card and taking the kicking. Unless he gets a leg injury I would say he's locked on to kick!

Because Boyd is a big guy, more impact, not expected to pick up the minutes you would think. Who would the Raiders No.1 prop be? He would be your man to get 50 minutes you would think.
Vaughan averaged maybe 42 mins last year??
