    I feel like there has been a power vacuum since the original Rabbits left (forgetting about his lingering ghost in Reg and Slug alts for a moment). People want a villain in their lives, someone to root against in the forum space. I thought at first that it was going to be the Rabbits21, but somehow he transformed his annoyingness into endearingness and now when I see his pages of red hot mess of a panic posts I merely smile to myself and think “classic Rabbits”, assumedly a survival mechanism for his kind. We really are hitting rock bottom for options if we want to make Matt the bad guy simply on the basis of “he can’t admit when he is wrong”. Does SI just set the bar way too high for likeability around here that this is the best we can do?

    So it is with great pains and martyrdom that I have decided to take up this mantle. Gentle folk of the NRL fantasy fanatics forum, I shall be your villain! Fill me with your scorn, your ridicule. Feast upon my sorrow and tribulations. Let us entwine our wills unto each other’s misery henceforth.

    Hark- It begins!

    - If you have never had a top 20 finish, you are a terrible NRL Fantasy player.
    - MTB’s site is unnecessary, I just get all the same stats on NRL.com lol.
    - My pool is bigger than your pool.
    - Milch’s contribution to the forum is overrated, his stats subpar.

I've been going over the stats,  and whilst I think he's a hold, can't get out of my mind that Egan is a better prospect than Turpin.  No fancy stats analysis,  just feel Egan goes five points more than Turpin for cheaper. No idea of numbers,  but I'll say as a guess,   Turpin 48, Egan 53. Worth a trade though. ... Hmmmm. Maybe not

    Big gut feel agree on this but I will wait a week on all my spuds. Two weeks isn't enough to make sweeping changes on any of these guys imo. Egan always seems near an injury as well.

    Fuck off Pookus, I'm worse than you are, don't even try it! You didn't even mention the thing that will rile up most people here - If you skimp out and buy the cheapest players at ctr why are you whining when they continue to score at that price (and yes the more expensive players also have dud weeks, but that's not unique to the position).

    Edit:
    The NRL is doing well If the Raiders are winning (or some such, you get the jist)
    Up up the raiders
    uhh... Off for a fishing trip

    May didn't spell Kenny last week, played 80, with May playing as a MID.

    That's because they were playing the Bulldogs and were well on top. In games against top sides I expect Yeo and JFH to get bulk of middle minutes, with May spelling Kenny(Koroisau) as the smaller body in the middle more likely to be targeted late

    Leniu was always going to be a slow burn, but I still expect him starting by origin and on the fringes of rep selection by year end

    Eisenhuth came on after 21 minutes, Leniu not until 29 minutes. Is clearly the senior player getting on for Leota, with more minutes. Leniu doesn't come on until much later when JFH comes off and gets less minutes than Eisenhuth, especially when May isn't used elsewhere as he has been in weeks 1 and 3 to cover injuries, and is in the MID rotation instead like in week 2.

    Wonder how different your theory would be if you owned him.

    However, I don't think Leniu is going to be a big minute player or a starting prop this year however good he is. He's at the moment best used as impact from the bench. But he'll still make plenty of money and would have got more than 27 minutes had he not injured both his leg and his shoulder during the game, as everyone else has told you.

    But last week Leniu came on around the 26 minute mark and Huth didn't enter the game until the second half, so your argument seems invalid.
