Yes mate captains our u12s, he's playing 10 atm for club and kicking, then playing 9 when defending and 7 in attack in league so tough gig for him in school but he loves it.

But he's obsessed with the carter prince tee and hes a stubborn bastard

One of the best things my physics teacher taught me was about appropriate use of significant figures.

We would come up with an answer like 24.179 +/- 10% and we would get lambasted for giving an answer to so much detail but then saying that the answer effectively be anywhere between 20 and 25
the extra detail was totally meaningless.

For the same reason, there is no difference between someone playing 72.4 minutes or 72.6 minutes. Specifying the extra detail does not add anything meaningful

I love numbers and breaking down to the nitty gritty it’s why I was top of the class back when I was in school til year 8 it was all number based so I kept getting around 98percent I didn’t even use the calculator didn’t need too. Then when they brought in all the algebra shit I greatly struggled.

Also can’t wait to see if Wolfie puts in Nofo again in his team. He’s quiet this week must be flat out at work.

Oh and on another note at least I do not need to stress about whether I pick Kobe or not he’s out round 1 now so I just simply won’t get him.

I’m gonna have to get a gun hooker now anyway I’m not running Randall with no cover and I’m not getting Paix or Starling to begin with either. I like Cheese and he won’t play origin either he has DPP and I know what I’ll get from him and he won’t fade like Macca did for me last year. Means having a gun hooker though is that i now have to probs go a bit cheaper at WFB but that’s ok. If Pap is free to play then my dilemma becomes how do it fit in Hynes too.

Pretty sure he is in the northern rivers area , maybe affected by floods as a few others no doubt will be.

Yes there is for mine though  72.4 is closer to 72 when you round it off and 72.6 is closer to 73

It is just me... I always thought his name referred to his teleportation vortex, which is why he lied hanging out with the rest of us in League 51. With the name change I am expecting some stellar GIF parties emerging this year

Far out - every time you think you worked out a little bit more in this game, someone puts a sound argument to show you've got more to learn!!  

The counter-counter argument:  what if you instead turn Nanai into Mahoney? or Tohu Harris if you insist on an Edge?

Would you be willing to share your working out with the class? My gut's been telling me he's an awful footy player, but the other fatter, balder, stupider part of my gut that makes all my fantasy decisions is telling me that awful footy players can still average 48 ppg

He’s not an awful player. Wasted for years at the Dragons though.

I think he averages 44.83333333333 over the first 7.9 games this season.

Fifita scored 17 tries in 21 games. That's a better try scoring rate than Brett Morris, Billy Slater and the same as Alex Johnston for their careers

Either Fifita is going to be the greatest try scorer of all time or his try scoring rate is going to come back to earth. Pretending that it's without a doubt option 1 is misleading at best

The other team can see him coming and not be able to stop him with 3 tacklers.
Name a better try scoring EDG.
The only one I can think of that would come close is Menzies.
Short of injury, we are going to see an 80 minute Fifita go on a massive try scoring run as he comes into his prime. Whether it is this season or not remains to be seen.
No one expected Turbo or Cleary's amazing seasons last year. If Fifita has things come together this year, he can emulate that kind of scoring.
