    I don't generally comment on individual stats during a game because although I keep an eye on fantasy scores during play, I generally just look at score totals, and don't keep a close eye on stat breakdown

    I try to abstain from checking fantasy score when watching games, maybe a quick peek at half-time. Checking scores can lead to a lot of frustration, which takes away from the enjoyment of the game.
    I think you need to have a "you win some and you lose some" when it comes to the interpretation of how stats get scored, because they do make mistakes aplenty

    I don’t trust Robson either, but is Cotter + Robson the better option than Hopgood and any shit mid range HOK! I already captained Haas!

    The big advantage of Robson (or any non origin cowboy) is that they have no byes until r16, so as long as he's not injured, he can just sit there doing his job, and let you worry about the rets of your team

    Does Rd 1 qualify as big game then?

    His finals series and Origin games definitely qualify. 1st game as captain, probably.

    Not sure Robson is a non-Origin Cowboy, but I guess no byes until R13 is fine, and if he does get Origin then he's playing and probably scoring well, so that's fine too.

    Just rewatched the Cowboys trial.

    Lolo 27 points in 43 minutes.

    The game was expansive, not all being played through the middle.

    Lolo didn't look very explosive running the ball. The biggest concern was him constantly playing a ball playing lock role, receiving the ball and passing it on immediately. In previous seasons he would have just tucked the ball under his arm and run. Other times he was the dummy runner, with Granville not passing him the ball, every time they were on the Raiders line, when he could probably have scored.

    Lucky Robson is a smart dummy half and it was just s trial then, eh? Basketball

    Been tossing between cotter and Elliot for my last mid spot. Ended up going with cotter because he should be funner to watch. You watch the cowboys and you know when he is on the field.

    When you look at Ponga back end of last year it's hard to not want to rip your team apart and get him

    Probably the best argument I've heard to separate the two.

    Elliot for 2022 raiders was also very fun to watch.
