    When I looked up who will be playing with Milf I got some weird results. Does this happen to anyone else?

    What’s the quickest way to see the teams on TLT? Does one site post up the teams quicker than others? I have been using the NRL app and watching the teams come up bit by bit

    NRL.com must get them a few hours before and they put them up on the dot.

    Thoughts on Teddy vs Cook vs Lolo as a top tier gun pick?

    Lolo gets at least one extra game if not more (since Cook and Ted both often get rested), but seems like he'll lose minutes

    Back in the day, when NZ had a team, the future premiers aka NZ Warriors, released their team lists a whole hour early

    Cook. More reliable scoring than Ted, and Lolo is playing less minutes this year

    And then whoever their opposition was that week would all get red dots in fantasy until 4pm when the other teams were named. So nearly every week someone would ask what had happened to player X

    That's what he was playing? Payten said they're cutting back. If it's meaningful, that would mean closer to 50 min I would think

    He definitely could have more efficient output though

    Was playing some huge stints, I think he's just trying to get him away from those

    Can't imagine him not playing much less than 60 mate

    In identifying a significant shift to more up-tempo football under the six-again rules, $10 million man Taumalolo is being sized up for the 50 minutes of game time he saw en route to the Cowboys' historic 2015 premiership.
    That season Taumalolo averaged 49 minutes each match, but over the past four seasons has been bumped up to just over 60 minutes each outing as North Queensland slumped to the wrong end of the ladder.

    When the boys pack gets trampled again, we will see

    I love how part of the article is insinuating playing Lolo over 60 minutes was the reason for the slump. Don't worry about the loss of one of the greatest players of all time

    Any interest in Fogarty? Scored well at the end of last season and Titans should do better this year?

    anyone rate Koro as a Cook alternative? Not playing Origin is a nice bonus (and if he does play Origin, it's because Cook went down so Cook owners are worse off)
