There's your answer mate, don't overthink it.

Weiland wrote:Pretty shocked the amount of people selling Cleary tbh. His score this past weekend was injury affected. Unless the injury was semi-serious, I expect him to be back to 60+ after this weekend.

Fanatics Immortality within your grasp this season?

Also I need a gun mid want Tohu but need two trades to do it only guys I can trade out are Boyd or E. Butcher. I feel Boyd is a dud do I risk trading him out but then if Douiehi is a late out I’d be down to 16 this week?

Last night's blah-athon would suggest yes!

I think selling Cleary is fine if and only if it's to someone like Cook, and even then it's not the best trade to make unless you desperately need a gun hooker.

That said I think I'll hold him this week since I have enough depth to cover him this week and can bank a trade.

"The commission reached the landmark decision on Tuesday night and informed NRL clubs of the new policy on Wednesday morning, having finalised months of research into whether to strengthen their concussion protocols by mandating a stand-down period for players who suffer serious head knocks.

Players who suffer a category one concussion will be automatically stood down a minimum of 11 days meaning they could miss two matches.

Category one symptoms include loss of consciousness, failing to protect oneself when falling and unsteadiness on feet. Players who show these signs are instantly ruled out of matches.

A category two means a player has failed the concussion test in the dressing room and is unable to return to the field.

The rule comes into place from the start of round three where the Sea Eagles take on Parramatta."

Good for Rugby League

Not great for fantasy, but that is of course secondary

Admittedly it does give clarity, if someone cops a Cat One you know he isn't playing the following week, rather than having to wait day by day to see if the protocols are passed.
