2016 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 29

48 from Inglis. Should update.

Glad I kept the faith.

Anyone heard from Rabbit lately? What excuses is he pumping out? Maybe we can lend them Alfie for a few weeks to turn things around.

He is from NSW after all.

He's the gift that keeps on giving. Does poorly - blame it on being from NSW, does well - Watch all the cockroaches froth and moan about it.

Teddy giving a post-match interview, looks fine, just wanted to bottom his price out for me I think. Cheers Ted

Geez, those who bought Teddy three weeks ago at top dollar have copped some ordinary scores.

If he is picked for Origin (which is surely a lock) doesn't he only play 4 weeks between now and Rd 19 inclusive, or have I missed something?

So what's the deal here regarding discussing the Foran situation? I think it goes without saying he is clearly having a really tough time mentally and that part of things should probably be left alone, but there is a pretty big rumour going round that would explain the "stood down" wording. Has that been discussed here? Or is that a no go area?

I think any of the rumours should never be discussed on a public forum. One, because it can get the site in big trouble and two, because it's a bit rough to do that to a guy. Private Pm's are another thing entirely really. The rumour I've heard has me really feeling for the bloke so I think it's best left alone.

I bought him at top dollar because I was tired of playing catch-up to everyone who had him and was hauling in the big scores. Oh well he's still the premier keeper in the WFB position, just cost a little more to get is all.

Hello everyone. My name is Rev, and i Captained Teddy.

I think my "Rumour" Is wrong thats why I haven't responded to the people that PM'ed me. I only PM'ed one person, he knows who he is...

Ok cool, fair enough.

For everyone trying to read things into the wirding "stood down", the parra site says granted leave of absence.
Unless they've changed it since first published, stood down is an invention of other media outlets

Oh wow. I just read another rumour.

@R+T

I think I know what you mean now...

I'm counting 6, assuming he will back-up after Origin (if he's even picked).

Any rumours posted regarding the Foran situation will be deleted. I do not think it needs to be discussed openly until all rumours are put to bed. I think the only thing anyone should be posting at this point in time is well wishes towards Foran wishing him a speedy recovery + support at this difficult time.

Same people who bought Taupau/Mbye at top dollar too?
As long as you don't panic sell after a few bad games all should be ok..
hoping not to be on that list with Friend....

Are you purchasing him this week? Friend is at top dollar or thereabouts after he scored 100. It would be absolute madness to pay almost 600k for him.

You're right, I forgot entirely about the weeks nobody has a bye O_o (Rd 14 and 17). Hmmm might have to crunch some numbers.
