    Refs always play advantage in these situations then let the bunker make the call. Should have been a try.

    You’d still be able to watch all 21 because it would open up a lot more looping options with said Bye’s, HIA’s and injuries.

    But every head to head match up has 4 less. In terms of enjoyment I think a bench player is worth about half a scoring player at best.

    Teams scoring 13s would be much more similar.

    Appreciate thinking of changes and I was a bit abrupt in my first message but I think this is objectively worse both from my enjoyment of the game and the point of fantasy driving engagement with NRL.

    It's exactly the same rules as last year which was awesome (IMO), this year is just more punishing than last.

    I’ve got a full 17 this week so don’t really care. Just think overall people will get fed up quicker struggling to field a full side. 

    But this current format was brought in before the Phins came into the comp and before 11 day stand downs. 

    We’re all fantasy addicts so we will all play the game no matter what but think something has to give. Roll on Lord of the Byes!!!

    Kenny Bromwich shouldn't see a jersey again. Pens, lazy defence... I know he brings experience but I'd rather we play Keeley or Teague honestly.

    I think maybe you just might have to go some cheaper players in R1 so you’re not as reliant on coin goats

    I mean I had Kini (dropped R4 with Campbell known to be starting if fit), Chan (injured/dropped R3 but Blore first choice), Wong and Tupouniua (Roosters EDG roulette), Talagi and Chevy in and out during early rounds who all were risks which has exacerbated my injury trades

    Keeley and Teague sounds like a comedy duo

    I'll be honest, I kind of enjoy the game more when there is carnage everywhere.
