NRL.com Fantasy thread part 51 - The party thread

NZ are looking very average at the 4 nations. I just watched the last 20 minutes of the Scotland game & what stood out is our defense is pretty bad. NZ were lucky to get a draw imo.

Just read the Marshall article re nrl.com on his signing for the Broncos & he said he didn't sign to play in the halves. Well where is he going to play as f/b is the only other position he could play & Boyd has that locked.

He said he is aiming for a CTR spot.

Yeah, Centre, but he is going to get fucking smashed.

I agree 100%. He's too small for centre & he can't even tackle. What an stupid idea.

Really looking forward to having Idris in my team next year. Playing in a Tigers backline who really throw the ball around giving Idris plenty of attacking opportunities. He should be pretty cheap I'd imagine. All I need now is for Loko to make a comeback & claim a first grade spot for whoever he plays for.

The only scoring Idris will be doing is when he plays McDonalds Monopoly.

Valentine Holmes should have the f/b position locked up with Barba being released.

misread this as MacDougall's monopoly and I thought Mad Dog was making a comeback.

Maybe Idris should try some man shakes and I don't mean booty shaking and twerking.

I'm watching the Aus v Eng replay & some dude in the crowd has a yellow tshirt with "fanatics" on it. Is it one of us.

Would assume it's one of the Aussie tennis fans who refer to themselves as the fanatics.
How do I as a kiwi know about this and you don't?

No, there is a sports tour group called the Fanatics that run tours for sporting events (plus I think they do stuff like ANZAC Day at gallipoli) . Started out as the wig wearing Lleyton Hewitt fans at Wimbledon and have grown from there.

Have a poor reputation amongst soccer fans, based primarily on them becoming official provider of tickets in Australia for the 2006 World Cup and then stuffing things up. (And a lot of die-hard soccer fans in the country who just find them generally annoying)

Klemmer is such a beast these days. No one wants to tackle him.

So will we see Prince and Marshall reuniting in the halves for the Broncos 9's?
