    it's like they looked at supercoach to figure out why it's more popular, and their takeaway was bigger number = better, seems like they're less interested in balancing every new stat they add, as much as using them to push up the average score.

    Anything to read into Niu staying in the 19, or just false hope?

    Probably not. Croft and Mead were dropped from the side and they were the two "cut"

    Always a chance though i guess.

    I think he himself would be surprised if he doesn't get dropped.

    I thought the saving grace for him was that Young was even worse. Irritating thing fantasy-wise is that none (maybe one) of his missed tackles was a genuine missed tackle, they were those fast linespeed ones where he gets the first hand on a runner and others complete, not negatively impacting play in the slightest. And he didn't get the ball because they never, ever went right, except the two times they scored.

    Early ball at the Raiders, instead of a prop cutting back inside? Seems unlikely.

    Just randomly is supercoach more popular amongst casuals?

    That's usually the game that the media and players refer to but I've seen more dedicated forums towards NRL Fantasy. Well okay just this place and Reddit where the majority deride it as 'easycoach' and play NF but still.

    SuperCoach is owned by New Corp, who also own news.com.au, daily telegraph and fox sports, so those guys push SC.

    This is absolutely a ploy to keep myself engaged as my interest wanes annually when the new FPL and NFL seasons come round!!

    Thankyou GM, this is amazing.  Talfal making tees up off his own back last year was a massive surprise  Beating Heart .  Now we have your legendary self funding priceless Leagues prizes out of the blue as well.  Wonderful stuff mate  Very Happy

    SC is sponsored by a few of the news outlets, including FOX, whereas Fantasy is the official game chosen by the NRL. Some irony there! In saying that, Fantasy seems to be up in numbers this year. Anyone know how SC is travelling numbers wise compared to the last couple of years?

    Wowser, I just noticed Supercoach has 130,892 entrants this year (so far) and Fantasy actually has 147,102.

    For some reason I thought it was the other way round by a long way.

    Yeah I only ever hear the commentators refer to Supercoach mid-game etc, but I have seen actual Fantasy ads on Kayo (which I think is just straight off Foxtel?)

    Those numbers are amazing. Unless I'm mistaken (and I could be because I even struggle to remember my address sometimes nowadays) SC was almost double Fantasy a couple years ago. Something like 110,000 Fantasy players vs 200,000 SC. Milchy used to keep the records on this I think for a while.

    Yeah, it really surprises me too and makes me think I'm looking at it wrong somehow. Genuinely expected it the other way round and by a lot more, so I hope I'm not dudding it up.
