Rabbits21 wrote:Any word yet on the severity of Carrigan injury?

Broncos Head Of Performance Dave Ballard said Carrigan felt pain in a small muscle behind his knee but recovered quickly.

“We’ll see how it settles down overnight and assess it again tomorrow but at this stage Pat is expected to play on Sunday,” said Ballard.

Hetherington?


As you were

Will we know whether Sitili is out before Curran plays?

Wonder how many Hynes VCers captained Cleary?

Name	C	VC
Payne Haas	29.65	5.25
Tom Trbojevic	8.79	5.18
Nicholas Hynes	5.73	6.82
Nathan Cleary	4.02	0.37
Daly Cherry-Evans	3.82	4.49
David Fifita	2.95	5.98
Jahrome Hughes	2.52	3.49
James Tedesco	2.38	3.75
Isaah Yeo	2.12	1.48
Cameron Murray	1.68	1.58
Isaiah Papali'i	1.34	3.1
Ryan Papenhuyzen	1.12	3.54
Damien Cook	1.05	1.69
Josh Curran	1.02	1.37
Dane Gagai	0.85	0.96

So those numbers suggest we're looking at 65.02% active teams, maybe 70% if we're generous and say 1% of Cleary captainers put it on him just in case he did play and there are a few other 0.5% captains here and there that add up.

Highly doubt it

2021 was a ridiculous year with the V'landys ball rules. The previous year Cleary averaged 72 which is probably closer to what he'll average this year. Still going to make him the best fantasy player in the game but he's not going to hit 100's for fun as easily. The kick metres nerf alone is going to do that.

Hmmmm.... From nrlsctalk late mail

Kurt Mann could be dealing with a leg injury. Barry Toohey said on Thursday that “as of today, he is playing”.

Try and get the two players you traded in back on the bench before hitting reverse...it could be a positional thing

Yeah they both are on the bench. Neither are captain or vice captain. I deliberately avoided that so I could have the flexibility to reverse. I've logged out and back in and still can't reverse them. Makes no sense.

I think he'll average 80, his average last year with new scoring was 82 if I remember right, and if anything he'll get MORE kick metres the way the games are being played now.

Was said on match commentary last week Klemmer expected back but Ponga to miss another week. How did they know? I thought was strange he was named based on that.

Very strange...I guess you've tried to do it one at a time? TBH the app sucks so much I generally do my trades on the laptop/website

Klemmer had a bit of a surgery on his knee 3-6 weeks.

Fk. I'm so tempted to just go Mann -> Starling which banks some cash too. Should I pull the trigger?

I was looking at selling Ilias but now I’ll hold so I have halves cover as I put Hynes at WFB so I’ll sell Billy Smith now I think to Thompson for faster cash gen.

This time last year I made two trades that turned out to be really bad ones. I sold Lodge and Averillo.

I am quite keen to not make the same mistake this year, yet here I am being very very tempted to say farewell to Uto & Lolo. Shopping list include Ming, Starling, Sexton.

Open to words of wisdom.....

Shame those kick for touch metres don't count

Sometimes you have to do 1 at a time. See if you can do the one that creates $'s bank first.

LOL - as I typed it I was thinking "this is just a game, go for what is fun". Mind you, winning is most fun
