NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 46 - You say which fantasy group is at the top? I Can't Believe It's Not Butters

Agree bit of healthy debate. Ultimately it's all subjective, never going to be as simple as in or out like a game of tennis (which still doesn't seem simple a lot of the time).

Yeah Harris and Olo indeed. Alternative is probably just Tatola only. Or no trades and play both Sloan and Granville..

It really isn't the old "Sonny Bill special" style of shoulder charge.

It's a weird one, I think IF (incredibly hypothetical) it's Payne Haas flying across and doing the same action, he probably gets a sin bin and a suspension.

There seems to be more leniency with smaller guys, i.e. most fullbacks, doing that sort of tackle as long as it doesn't endanger the player (head high etc) - I personally don't have any issue with how it's ruled.

The alternative is we coach our small attacking fullbacks to basically just let a try like that be scored, which I can't see benefits the game or anyone... because it's really the only way that Walsh stops that try and he should be doing all he can to stop the try - in a non-reckless way

The ref on the field gets talked about a lot by disgruntled fans but for me it's always the bunker decisions that drive me nuts, they have the luxury of watching multiple replays in slow motion and still make some baffling calls. I can live with 99% of the calls the on-field ref makes as that's a whole lot harder.

Me too. We also just don't get fantasy mate.

But when Miller scores 80 I'll feel vindicated

Seems as if Sanity has prevailed - not a hip drop at all

Have I been under a rock, is there any credence to it even being a thought ? Doesn't actually come from his mouth though.

- Suaalii (DPP and in a team that surely scores some tries at some point)
- Olam (probably missed the boat on this one)
- Taupau (Minutes watch while Carrigan, Haas and Capewell are at origin)
- Coates (tends to score tries in bunches)
- Hodgson (ignore his scores and just follow the minutes)
- Saab (poor mans Coates in a worse team)
