it was an optional restart kick for touch, they'd get the ball back wherever it went out, so it doesn't count as a 40/20, that's why they got the ball back off a scrum, instead of a tap restart like usual with 40/20s.
But it was a 20m restart after Schuster kicked it dead. You don’t get the option to kick for touch.

20 metre restart is actually an optional restart. You have the option to tap it, or kick the ball back to the opposition. If the ball goes out after bouncing from a kick, you get the ball back as long as it has gone more than 10 metres. It's rarely used because the risk of giving up a guaranteed 7 tackles is too high

20m restarts have always been optional kick restarts for as long as I can remember. You just don't see them opt for the kick unless they're certain they can find touch and retain possession.

What is the latest on Daine Laurie playing today - I've missed most of the weekend - did I hear that he is out?

So if he'd tapped it and *then* kicked it it would have been a 40/20?

Wow, always learning something new. I’ve never seen a kick off a 20m restart. Amazing stuff

Don't bench Simpkin. Flip a coin for the other two: Fui more base, Laurie more upside.

Thanks mate - I am leaning towards Fui bench and hope for the upside .... it's always the hope that kills you

Simpkin is an in. Last one is 50/50. If you think the Tigers get another thrashing then go with Fuis safety net

It sucks that the Roberts/Cini switch was announced on Saturday morning. I would have been able to modify my trades if I knew this was going to happen before the Friday night games.

849 (c) + Hampton, Laurie, Simpkin, and Bird.
Too much to ask for the guys to average 50 a piece.

Sounds like Bird is overrepresented here relative to his overall ownership. A big game from him might see a majority of us gain some big ranks!

I'm glad to have picked up Ipap and To'o this season, they've been great buys.
NBrown out sucks for the Eels, I'm curious to see who is going to take that 13 jumper. Ipap may be first in line, but there is the possibility of a Carty party. Toot toot!
Also, on another note, @Fiona why didn't Cini get DPP?
