    I'm going to play the "if only" game. Join in if you like.
    Ferguson scores the 1st try instead of losing control
    Aubussen scores the last try but forward pass
    Mbye scores the length of the field try with Holland run metres/tb & try assist but J. Graham's big mit

    Instead of 665/13 I'd be over 700 & pushing 1,000 for the week.

    606 with Smithy (c), JDB, Parker, Gavet and Barba to come. Will take 900+. Currently 1325th and 26 trades left.

    Nice work Sash!

    Up the Bunnies.



    and Fuck the Bonzos.....

    What has gone wrong with the bunnies in your opinion.... I am not sinking the boot in, I actually don't mind them. Any team wearing green us good in my eye... Lime green is my preference though.

    Dunno. I think the less interchanges has reduced the effectiveness of the twins. Keary is mud in defence and teams just steamroll him. Tyrell is a tackling bag and we miss Luke. It also appears there might be some friction between the Burgi and some of the team. Still a long way to go, but I think their game plans are one dimensional and Madge needs to switch it up.

    Having my best round of the year, 838 with JBrom and Barba to go. Sadly for me though even if they both scored 0 it would still in fact be my best round score of the year. On the plus side, whilst I will drop some places today I am currently up 9000 spots Smile

    By the way, in terms of picking winners this week, without boring you of the details, I've pretty much picked every losing team possible, AND I went the Dragons....Read into that what you will Smile

    Hey guys.

    Finally got caught up on everything

    Currently on 658 with C(Cam), Barba, Parker, Harris + J Brom to go.

    950, maybe

    Glad I picked up BJ this week.

    Looks like a very high scoring round.

    D Saifiti with 37 is good news for me as he was nearly at his peak, Matterson with 27 isn't bad considering he spent the game on the wing.

    Argh! J Turbo with those attacking plays, does my head in.

    Interesting that Lamb got basically all the KM. I bought Matterson in instead, however Gordon - Lamb might be on the cards.

    Any news regarding Fensom? Looks like the week off has come at the right time for players to rest those injuries

    An ankle tap is still an attempt at a tackle, and the ballrunner has every right to get up and keep going, so to me any missed tackle should also count as a tackle break.

    I dunno about your example, it's nothing like an ankle tap. If the ballrunner is being driven backwards, then it probably shouldn't count as a tackle break. Given how many TBs Napa had the other week, I've got a feeling they are counting those anyway.


    Sorry went out last night

    My point was that Croker stopped Seggy because he fell over and got tackled by someone else. I know he got the offload off but if it wasn't for that ankle tap Seggy would have scored under the posts.

    Anyone with Gutho probably had him in NPR's, including me. Those that DID play him probably needed to because of a lack of depth and got lucky, bloody lucky.

    I'm also crying because I put Hastings in my NPR's and put the R on Blaw, thinking Pearce is back and will dominate everything and he'll be a high 20's player at most. How wrong was I and now have his 73 as well as Guthersons 85 staring at me in my NPR's. To add to my pain I have Auva'a 45 (my lowest NPR score this week) and Aubs 54 also staring back at me.

    Making things worse is fuktard Gordon and his massive 13 and Mau's 31 (that is Gordons fault too) in my 17. Even Mbye, Fensom, Claw and Holland scored less then my lowest NPR this week.

    How I wish I had a crystal ball that worked!

    If a player makes a break and in all likelihood will score, but an opposition player makes a last ditch attempt tackle and manages to ankle tap him so he falls to the ground so that others can then complete the tackle properly should be a tackle, NOT a missed tackle with the player awarded a TB. Without the ankle tap the player would have scored.

    Gutherson was a calculated risk in my case. I had other priorities for bye cover and 35 pts would have done me. I'll take the extra 50 though. I got to bring in JDB and now can trade Hymel and Taylor next week for two more R12ers, including another gun.

    I'll tell you what will piss you off Bluetige......when Gavet scores 60 today Laughing
