Yeah it does mate.

Oh it's not coming up on footystats? Do I have MTB to blame?

It definitely does, check Fantasy match centre

TS (5)
19 tackles (19)
7 misses (-14)
35 metres (3)
50km (2)
3 penalties (-6)
1 sin bin (-5)

4 points

Just having 18 players makes you a King mate.

They’re 18 pretty bad players. I’ll be deathriding Simo like nobody’s business tomorrow. Hopefully he gets sin binned 2 or 3 times

Odds on that happening have definitely shortened after tonight.

That's Carter award level shit right there.

I remember when scores would be a blow out and you'd talk about it like "man, Roosters pumped the Broncos 59-0, can't believe that!" now the blow outs seem to be every second game for every team.

Godspeed mate, Godspeed.

Biggest pain point for me is teams no longer have to work for field position, just 6 again, penalty, 6 again, try. Yay points !!

Sin bin? Literally get fucked.

it's like deciding the murder rate is too high and deciding to combat it by charging common assault as first-degree murder.

He got back to back 40s before this so give him the benefit of the doubt - as long as he keeps his spot he should be ok. Just a shit game all around - Haas his first 40 score in forever as well

41/74 games this year have been been 13+

30/74 games have been by 20+

16/74 games have been within 6 points.

Games are nearly twice as likely to be 20 point thrashings than it is to be a close game.

It has I think. There's no 1 in the TS column but adding up his score it's been added.

Speaking of the Carter Award, I feel bad for not letting everyone know earlier. Bluetige has taken the year off Fantasy as he has been a bit crook. Looking forward to the bloke coming back bigger and better next year with his Tyson Gamble Trophy for the most demerits.

Quite possibly a couple of more hidings tomorrow

Walters will do well to avoid a fine here

Yep. The NRL is ruining the game. They want touch football with big 'safe' hits.

Hope he recovers well. I was thinking we hadn't seen him for a while.

Lol these journos definitely trying to suck him in but he did well to not bite

To his credit, he didn't blame the sin bins at all. Just seems disappointed in his teams performance.
