Broken hand

So 2 of my players broke their hands in the same game. Lovely

Easy sell. I thought about no trades and ended up doing 3 to get Billy Smith which meant selling Preston. I keep making moves that end up making me think I should write this season off and wait for next year

Longhand for “delete the app”

I knew spudtrell was loafing around behind the play for the majority of the half, but 6 points including a TO is pretty pathetic

If Hoppy has to play Origin after I traded him in last week then a banner would be nice

Latrell will score 50 in the last 15 mins of the game though wont he

Lots of Hopgood hate from those that have FOMO.

Used to be worth 2 to the complaints of literally no-one and for whatever reason instead I just doing the smart thing and making offloads to ground 1 point and offloads to hand 2, I guess they decided they needed a ‘stupid points’ replacement when they finally listened to the players and nerfed TBs and KMs

Yeah, pretty much all of this. Leaving OFH at 2 and introducing OFG for 1 point would have made sense. Why the fuck they made them 4 is beyond me. I'm less convinced TBs and KMs needed nerfing. KMs maybe, halves are still scoring just fine. Nerfing TBs really is a bit hard on backs. But no major complaints with the nerfs. 4 points for offloads though is just stupid. But that's the game. If all of a sudden they started adding 4 points for somersault put downs, I might trade in a winger for a change. Otherwise, I just trade in Hopgood next week and pay the tax, if he misses origin.

In my view the game is supposed to be a rough reflection of how well a player does not a hard and fast evaluation. 4 point OFHs are no more stupid than crabbing across field for no gain palming defenders off. But we target players that do that same as targeting players who have a good offload. Makes the game more interesting. I also love that it gives a chance for forwards to have high variance games, gets more price action going which can lead to more interesting decisions over the course of a game. Horse with his random 5 OFH game a few weeks ago is a good example.

As a qldr I want him in the origin team. Start Carrigan at lock, then bring on Hopgood with his offloading ability once the blues middle starts tiring.

Not really dude, most would be planning to get him next week if he doesn’t get picked by Billy so probably not cheering him on for price inflating banner but no one’s been posting any death riding negative shit

Edit : I actually ignore in game posts about stats & the merit of alloted points per stat so maybe I’m wrong here

Trell isn't there for his work rate.

Where is the hate?

I always enjoy the toys out of the cot rant about OFHs when someone they dont own racks up a few

I don’t think praising him as Origin worthy (deservedly) can be classed as “hate”

Not everything is about fantasy, I want him in the team for QLD especially running over Luai it will be delightful to watch

It all looks like praise to me

He's playing so well that non-owners will trade him in if he misses Origin

But if he makes Origin, then he's obviously a no go and a trade out for everyone that has him

Simple m8

I am a firm believer that any non fantasy related posts should be deleted by mods and users given 7 day bans.
