Also, did she sent a picture?

Gender be damned!

Was so fun watching Hynes (captain) in the last game last round and shooting up the rankings with everything he'd do haha. With Cleary and Hynes being roughly a 50/50 split for Captaincy in the top 100 (or was it 1000?) - I was wondering if I haven't dropped too many ranks does that mean there'd be an opportunity to shoot up the rankings again with Hynes as Captain when he plays?
Think I was 78th to start the round and 87th now (have both Cleary and Hynes but captained Hynes).
Used to play a lot of NRL Draftstars and going up and down the rankings is good fun to follow, but it's a whole another level for NRL Fantasy haha.

Also, back home after 5 weeks so i've started recording Wicky's NRL Fantasy & Supercoach podcast again. A lot of the info would be stuff that we discussed on here TBH - I've covered team lists, trade decisions, how the byes work etc. Check it out if you're keen + join our free discord (mix of punting and fantasy): https://linktr.ee/wickyai

I captained Cleary, still dropped ranks so far. No Carrigan/Walsh/Hosking/whoever else is popular, just (C)leary and Haas.

Don't have Hynes, so hate to see what will happen to my rank when he plays this weekend

Didn’t even think about looking at rank. Dropped 1200 spots with just Cleary and Carrigan.

Soccer you would

But has to get a week, surely. Not everything can be a fine. And I'm typically not a WON'T SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN~!1!!! guy, but it's something that it's important to be strong on for grassroots footy and refs at that level.

Also, if you're gonna touch a ref at least be funny like that time Roach patted the dude on the head.

I think Carrigan must be one of those lads where NRLFF has higher shares than the field. Cos I'm now (temporarily) in the top 500 but only 30th in the FOG.

Man, I've made some horrible choices the past few rounds. Highlighted by Talakai for centre cover, who was a late withdrawal and isn't playing this week either. He better be ready for the two bye rounds....

Hopefully I'll make a bit of a comeback - I've dropped from well inside the top 1000 to about 7k now, but I am a bit of a bye round specialist, so hopefully will make up a bit of ground there.

Good start this week with (C)hin.

Aah okay. TBH I had Haas, Yeo, Walsh + Cleary in that game so probably explains why I didn't go down as much.
Just realised I'll likely miss the Sharks v Knights game as we'll have winter cricket on then Was sooo fun watching Ponga (traded him in last week) and Hynes (captain in the last game) last round. Honestly being ranked in the top 100 for pretty much the first time ever is bringing back my enthusiasm for NRL Fantasy like it used to be 10 years ago when I was at Uni and used to spend 1.5 hour train rides to Uni reading the forum haha.

When did we come over to nrl fantasy fanatics.com again? Was so dramatic when sportal just disappeared overnight (think that's what happened)?

Luai fined

A win for common sense

I’m almost glad I don’t have Hynes, having to pick a captain each week must be stressful

Cleary 53%
Hynes 46%

Will be a different top 1000 next week then..

but with maybe 2 banners that I own I’ll probably close the curtains later and put it on 

Sorry for downvote - fat thumbs

Interesting to see what he’d get if he played for any other team. Mind you we probably wouldn’t be reading about NSW cup charges

What’s will Hynes need to score for us to be a little happy. 80+

Miller

Take away his 14 pts from goal kicking last week and he was pretty grim.
Yes I know Teddy was worse, but he's Teddy.

When is “he’s Teddy” gunna start referring to him being shit?

As a non-owner another 35 would be great..

At least you didn't trade out Carrigan yesterday like I did.....
