NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 85 - Creedence Cleary Revival

Fark moi Radley 3-4 weeks for that is just ridiculous... it was definitely a penalty in game but to be sitting out 3 weeks for that is just crazy (non owner too).

Also surprised Flagler didn't get suspended for that disgraceful high tackle at the end of the game!

The nrl is now mirroring the legal system...1 rule of law for the elite (Cleary) & 1 rule of law for everyone else (Radley)

Does having Radley, MC9, and CHN count as shit?

Hate to say it but Fantasy these past two seasons has completely lost it's allure. Doesn't really matter what trades you make when there's so many injuries and suspensions. the best fantasy years were when squad sizes were bigger.

What I mean by this is, you can make a better trade that nets you 5 more points per week over 10 weeks (in my experience, generally fantasy players with better footy knowledge make these trades consistently, luck plays some part), then completely lose the advantage because your player got injured over a different one (completely luck based) with limited mitigation strategy since you only have four EMGs.

With Radley, if you’ve broken the law load of times before they do tend to throw the book at you. Unless you’re JWH. But anyone else on their 2nd, 3rd, 4th (?) offence in a short period of time cops weeks like he is. No dramas there.

Im ok with that judiciary outcome.

It just blows my mind that it was somehow missed in the game. Actually, not missed but viewed on video and deemed ok.

This is the thing. Wasn't given a second look. Commentators barely mentioned it either. Too busy complaining about his hit on the kicker.

It is loading that got him up to 3-4 weeks, for others would have been much less.

If I was Radley I'd get pissed & get on a plane

I’ve never understood how video refs are so bad at their jobs. They go through phases where they’re ex-refs, or ex-players, and the outcomes are still poor

Or he could just do less illegal shit hey

Tupouniua got 0 points in the 2nd half...he's the epitome of a rocks & diamonds type of player or he's bipolar.

Just looking at the new fines for NSW residents breaching home quarantine orders.  Wow.

Ridiculous that they let it get to this point and ridiculous that their solution is to increase fines.

That doesn't seem to be working out for you, champ.

What's the go with the players' scores not updating? The game last night aswell as the Storm Raiders game haven't been updated on fantasy yet wtf

Is there another sport worldwide where players are punished differently for the same on-field offence depending on past record? It's sport ffs not the cosplay criminal justice that the NRL "judiciary" gets off on.

(Serious question... I don't know how major sports disciplinary processes work, other than soccer never works this way and no sport I know of loses players for a higher proportion of the season for on-field fouls than the NRL)

I reckon after every 5 wides from a bowler, it should increase to 2 runs, 3 runs etc. for every one thereafter.

If his name was JWH he’d have no case to answer.

It’s the priors that is why Radley gets longer. It’s why I didn’t buy him I knew he was a ticking time bomb.

My point is if they were told to stay home when this first kicked off they wouldn't be in this situation and they still haven't locked things down as hard as any other state or NZ would've done seven weeks ago.

Yep, will want to be careful not to do it again, otherwise might be facing a week or so off depending on severity.

Its terrible. If Cleary does another shoulder charge, the NRL will have to find another reason not to suspend him.
He'd better not put them in that position
