Any more news on Storms lineup? In particular that left edge spot?

For mine the sad part is just leaving without offering an explanation, or put forward a different perspective to allow the other members of the community to adjust / apologise or even just ignore their perspective.

Last year when the entire Rainbow jersey stuff-up at Manly was going down, a number of people made jokes / comments that I found troubling.
I took it upon myself to present a different point of view and found that pretty much everyone was cool with it. Even those who hold opposite beliefs to mine were accepting that I could have a different point of view.
Like someone else said, as a white bloke, I have no clear understanding of how racist comments can affect people, but we should be able to present our views and let others know if we're feeling undercut etc. and then make peace.

Just my (admittedly limited) view.

Can confirm they don't give a shit how many teams you have when they award the prize. They sent me the Roosters prize last year when I was running an auto fill team too. Loads of people run H2H teams alongside classic. There's no NRL fraud department checking on a $250 prize, why would there be?

Then there was the year that my WAGs team accidentally won the Souths league. They sent me the voucher then too.

Yes.

HIA's are also a bit different to other injuries, in that an independent doctor can conservatively rule someone out for their own safety - which is a good thing in reality but a shit hand to be dealt in fantasy.

Not really an issue in Rd 1 for someone highly owned like Piakura - but geez that would be a tough way to lose the comp in the final round.

Tough problem to solve though.
I like the idea/strategy of selecting a HIA reserve and then getting a choice to activate (i.e. you wouldn't activate if your player got HIA'd in the 79th minutes of a game).

Nope, says the same thing if one of us wrote it...

With Trent Loiero moving to a middle role, Shawn Blore, Kane Bradley and Jack Howarth are battling to start on the edge. Bradley was favoured for the trial clash with the Knights.

I don't have him blocked but I've got someone else blocked and when everyone quotes his ramblings about glory glory and how he's going to have tears in his eyes if Souths win because of two knock ons it's hard to skip past them.

You don't like the Game Day Preview???????

Its been said before, but I'll just remind everyone its worth reading the Game Day Preview, or at least skipping to the end, as that is the part where Rabbits practises what he is going to shout at the ref for all the penalties he isn't giving Souths that week.

It is true dedication to his craft

There's no prizes or extra points for trading in a player 24 hours before everyone else

Just wait for 4pm tomorrow (or 1 hour before kickoff if its shady) and you won't have to care about the source of rumours.
