Actually lolled

Come on @TopDog

stop filtering by highest avg scores on NRLFantasy.com and trying to convince people they are better than they are in real life

Still thinking lads. Sorry.

In all seriousness, how did you rate Tapine this year, felt he was a bit underwhelming personally.

Ok, Quick bit of serious discussion while I wait for Bren.

Honestly, I thought he was good, showed signs of something better without setting the world on fire. When we first picked him up I wasn't convinced he would be any use at all in the middle and felt he'd be a bit wasted in our squad (Papa + Whitehead, Soli to slot in there as well on the edges means he surely has to play in the middle). So I guess I went in to the season with low expectations for him, which makes a big difference on how you rate someone. He's got talent there, in fact the way he can use his footwork to beat his man quite frequently could become something quite Bromwich like if he develops it.

The thing I liked about a lot of our pack was their ability to get a quick play the ball, it often either led to penalties (we received some of the most of all teams this year) as teams tried to slow them down, or it led to early ball for our outside guys who just need a bit of space to punish teams (Coincidentally, I've based my draft off this a bit) . In this stuff Tapine was often a good contributor as he often made half a break and got a decent ptb. He struggled a bit when momentum shifted against us in a few games and I wasn't wow'd by his defence, but he's young.

Can we put you down for Farah, Bren?

Remain silent for the next 2min to show your consent.

Someone start filling his inbox with the usual stuff. Should give him the message

I am heading to bed, going to send a few picks your way Archer to select for me when it comes up.

Uhhhh pass.
I trust your judgement mate, you know your work better than i do.

Edit: Oh right, PICKS, not PICS like i was suggesting. Ok sure, send em my way.

For the record I hate you.

Does it have to be an NRL club coach? Can I go Mal Meninga?

Is a coach technically in the squad is the question? I'd say no so would be good on my part, but certainly up for debate

Well when asked about it, it was simply "teams as they are now" so ideally it would be someone apart of the NRL teams. However I don't mind if you run with Mal and I am sure the other guys wouldn't either.

Yeah sweet. Put me down for Mal as Coach. Cheers.

Yeah.
