NRL Fantasy 2021 - In my opinion, this is part 8

How long is Herbie out for?

There are a few players with potentially limited time as first grade starters (Hoy, Hetherington, Brandon Smith, Morgan Harper to name a few)

Hoy is the only one I am really interested in.
Slight interest in Hetherington, but suspect there will be better options around (Alvaro, Utoikamanu are 2 I am watching)

Apologies I haven't been able to contribute as much this year as I would like (my wife gave birth to our twin boys less than a month ago so we've been a tad busy!)
Looking forward to a ripper season with you all.

Congrats Fraser, hope the family is going well

Friend of mine had wins a few years ago, her comment was "I'ts amazing how quick they learn to team up. I swear it's a combined attack"

Wouldn't be the first talented half to not crack the grade because of weak mentality and certainly won't be the last. I think he has done his dash

This.
He's got the talent to make it in first grade, and as someone who (foolishly) decided to run with the Croft-gamble again last year, the conclusion I came to is that he just doesn't seem to have the resilience or mentality to benefit from his underlying talent.
The great players tend to thrive under pressure. Croft seems like he melts under it.
It sucks seeing that happen to a player, but in my opinion; while he may be able to string a couple of good games together - he won't be able to maintain a first-grade spot (I hope for him that I'm wrong).

Also, hearsay is that he's gotten on the wrong side of Lodge. That doesn't seem like a great place to be...

I hope not, I have always like Crofty.

Everyone has a different opinion but I’ve always thought he was overrated significantly, as a storm fan I wasn’t mad when he got the flick. Even from his time in Qcup I heard the easts tigers coach had a much higher opinion of Billy Walters than Croft even during all the media hype. His stats were worse than Norman, Clifford even Lachlan Lewis. Hope he proves me wrong but just haven’t seen it from him yet

How did Hoy go in the weekend? I haven't watched that game yet

"Hahaha, I noticed you were told that after he'd called Revraiser "dumb" and "a tosser" for questioning his Papenhuyzen logic."

Errrr... did i miss a slur on my unquestionable character !! As they say, water off a cunts back.

Scheißen think imma go with Milf

I had to work hard to make it to League 1, I didn't know if I was going to make it, but got there in the end. Some may say I was just-in
