    Maroons debutant Reece Walsh has broken down at the captain’s run and is in doubt for Origin II with a leg injury.
    Will have fitness test on game day.
    Ronaldo Mulitalo on standby to make Origin debut on the wing.

    Geez, that sucks for him

    Whoah. That Walsh news is HUUUGE.
    Unless, hmmm ... it was part of their sneaky plan all along.
    Befuddle the NSW journos with a fake team selection, focus all media attention on the kid, and then do a switcheroo.
    BOOM, less pressure on Val Holmes and Mulitalo as they prepare for Game II.

    Q14:

    Fuck I misread this. Thought it was the other way around - a gun fantasy player that doesn’t translate IRL. So I was Luke Brooks then. Probs would’ve said Joey Manu or JAC if I’d read it properly

    Q17: Which player should the Tigers recruit (ignore contracts) to build a team around.

    Looks like the forum would love to see the former bus drivers son get behind the wheel at the Tigers...

    Q17:

    BCT05  - What are you doing???!!!!  That's a Greg Norman size choke!  Throwing it all away on Matt Burton???   We have a new leader.

    Q18: What is the average time you spend on fantasy related activity each week, excluding watching games. Answer in hours

    I had no idea how to answer this one - but the range of responses was surprising!

    19: Who is the hardest player to tackle in the NRL?

    The fanatics obviously know which players make the most tackle busts.

    Q20: What is your highest position ever in fantasy, rounded to nearest 50. [1, 50, 100 etc]

    Would fanatics all pretend we were MTB or go a bit more average??

    Jumping Marlin wrote:Q13: Who is the NRLs best tackler?

    Not one we discuss on FF site, so an interesting result with lots of players named.
     
    Personally, I thought this was an easy pick (Jurbo) but not as many agreed as I thought.  I thought Radley may get a few more than he did too.  
    A few interesting picks for sure.

    Q13:

    Steve Matai hahahaha

    Disappointed no Gary Larson, Dallas Johnson or Shawn Fensom

    There are no limitations to what we can do.

    Just let me know all the leagues and we will get it done

    Great. Bit difficult to do yet though, as no idea on sizes of winners, but suggest if you can help coordinate after seasons end? Can keep it simple with League XX Champion if want 1 line. Whatever you think looks good

    Thanks JM and that was good fun.
    Well done on your handling of the villian Question - I think that was a good call.

    I have to say, there were a few answers that surprised me, but they all make sense on some level.
