It's been raining for about 6 months, more on than off. I don't think I had to have the aircon on once this summer

That is nuts. I had the aircon on in Auckland a few times this summer. First coldish day today though. It could be time for the first fire of the season.

I dunno. Fbs dont just average high because they play for a good team. Certainly helps, but Papys avg at fb is not interchangeable with meaneys avg at fb. Papy does things that most nrl players cant

Panthers are undefeated and edwards averages 41.

Meaney isnt a bad pick up but 35 to 41 seems reasonable. Prob does get 40ish due to gk

Edit wait panthers lost last week haha

Edit2 yeah meaney has a handful of weeks shelf life. Priced at 35. If he had the rest of the season it would be a better buy. Not for 4 weeks

Also if you haven’t stumbled upon Rugby League Eye Test, have a look, league porn for stats.

He's probably the beneficiary of a few injuries and Murray out wouldn't hurt his prospects. Anyone want to take that punt?

Great article

Interesting reading the comments - most people get it, and tbf I don't think it's that difficult to understand in principle (just to measure)- but there's a few "my head hurts" type comments. Which makes me think I reckon half the paid commentators and writers on rugby league probably fall into the latter category, or dumb themselves down to appear that way by focussing on cliches and sensationalism. Which does the game a disservice, really.

Looking at the casualty ward it seems that only Nicholls and Host are injured... What about Sele and Knight? May be Havili has displaced them?

Asking for a mate.

Not all of the Props that South are not playing seem to be injured.

PS I can see the downside of Meaney now. Thanks all for your contribution

It's the worst. Matters for a few WFBs (but not as much as people think), and very little for anyone else.

Remember a month ago when Walker was a buy due to matchups?
