    Why not both?

    It's rather.. freeing. Like going commando. Not a care in the world.. except Isaako playing fullback.

    I'm hosting a H2H league, with 8 places left.
    Only problem is, one of mates who plays every year and has an ongoing feud with my 9 year old, hasn't joined yet.
    As soon as the spud pulls his finger out and joins I'll post the code here - if anyone is interested in joining.

    How would that change it? Kelly/Walters aren't in the running for fullback. Presumably Niu comes back in when fit though.

    Need a goal kicker, and adds needed experience in the spine, compared with running Cobbo there.

    If Reynolds is playing they aren't a real issue.

    I set an alarm to remind myself to post some feeble attempt at humour at about 4.01pm as is my custom.

    I actually love it when 4.00pm TLT and page 51 collide…

    They aren't selecting Isaako because he is a goal kicker. Niu would be there if he was fit, which will be a week or two.

    He was the default option to replace Niu. It's not surprising really, it's just frustrating. My point re isaako above has nothing to do with fantasy. I just hate watching him play fullback. No footy IQ.

    I want to give a massive thanks to everyone who have been working like crazy to get the leagues sorted.
    It’s a thankless job and I imagine a real pain in the arse at times.
    I won’t mention names as I don’t know exactly who is involved.
    Great job guys.

    I didn't watch the trials. What was the Tigers halves dynamic like? Like who did the majority kicking and who was running the attack.

    Because I'm on Jackson Hastings for no other reason than I've always liked him and I really want to see him succeed in his NRL return.

    You probably aren't going to get the answers you're looking for.

    Farnworth is a decent goalkicker. Isaako is playing because Cobbo was found out hopelessly on defence and stamina in the trial and needs to learn the game a bit from wing before hitting fullback. (Whether Isaako's defence will be any better is another issue, but it has nothing to do with Reynolds not being there.)

    Cobbo did the pre-season on the wing. Didn't train there as an alternate to Niu. They gave him a run there after Niu got injured. Isaako is a known quantity.
