Sorry  I meant his byes

Good bye schedule for an origin player, misses 16/19 anyway, then no byes for the run home. If I was buying a gun mid and could afford him, I'd be grabbing Yeo for sure (assuming at this stage you can cover round 13 in the MID position).

Speaking as some-one that has Foran, if you were already having trouble fielding a team, your first mistake was buying Foran

Keary spilled that

If Matto doesn't play again, the big benefactor over the Origin period may be Ofa getting big minutes at lock.

Penalty try? o_O odd one

You want to trade in an old man who spends more time off the field then on it, don't act suprise when he gets injured.

From memory, Ivan is super cautious with his origin players, I think he’s likely to be rested a couple times through the origin period.

Edit: without looking too closely, it looks like he was rested for their games after origin 2 & 3

Only the roosters could get away with that bullshit. Keary dropped it cold.

Dragons wouldnt get a call like that

Nah correct decision. As Brandy and Blocker disagree with it so you know it's the right decision.

If he doesn't impede him the ball doesn't get an extra rotation or two and therefore could be easier to pick up, as Keary is also in a better position with his body to assess the situation and make a clean grab.

This is true, and something you might need to gamble on.

Woohoo! Weekes beat his BE!

Taking the little wins here.

Kris drop missed, somewhat makes up for it

Oh sorry yeah I agree that it should have been a penalty try, I more meant that it's a strange situation for a penalty try.

Whitehead knocked that forward - double bullshit

Went forward didn't it?

I wasn't having any problems fielding a team when I got Foran. Was a great buy, on track to hit 70 in the game I got him before injury.

Have just lost Foran, Harris, Koula, Matto, Watson, Chan, Turbo, Papy, Jye, Egan so don't be an ass.

Whitehead also knocked that ball on. How can someone be this bad at their job?

Following a Kris knock on. Shocker

Considering some of the calls this season which haven't been penalty tries, that sure is a perplexing one.

These kinds of comments are the kind you'll get Matt when you constantly brag about how great your players are going. It's bad that people enjoy it when you suffer, but it's because they feel like it's karma taking you down a peg. I promise if you're a bit more humble and only occasionally praise yourself and your players, the comments would come less frequently.
