2017 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 6

Thank you for whoever pointed out Karl Lawton and Kayne Lawton are different people (they are brothers and I didn't realise)

Nonetheless the Titans player profile site lists Karl as a half/hooker and Fantasy has him as a centre, so if Peats is out there is still a possibility for him to get game time.

Think the wife might kill me for staying up to watch this game. Was hoping the new young fella would wake up so i could say i was nursing him back to sleep

Is this a full strength Wigan team? Lots of high numbers out there

I love how loud the UK crowd is.

I also don't like how they rate Gallen highly.

I disagree witth the no-try call as Winger doesnt get involved but it was one hell of a call from the touchie, you never see NRL refs make those calls

Tomkins, Manfredi, McIlorum the main ones missing.

Fifita off after 24min Bukuya on, 1st Sharks interchange.

26min Prior off Heino on
26min Brailey off Brown on
33min Gallen off Taga on

Sharks have numbered up right for both tries but Bird has been caught out in D, he is turned in and the out ball is easily getting past him.

Who is that big hairy bloke? Surely he has to go off? Looked gooooone.

Toutai, ex-eel

No-one should complain about the time the bunker takes after watching that decision take 5min

That explains it. Thought Fuifui had taken some time out from cheating on his girlfriend to play some footy.

Fui still plays, think he joined that Canadian/American team that plays in the english lower league, should be in top league within 2 years they reckon

Crowd is brutal. Love it!

something i didn't want to mention yesterday because i'd have been roasted for blaming the refs even though i know the wolves outplayed us, but the super league favouritism from them in these 2 games has been some next level shit.

I've become a london broncos member this year, despite them having the pony name and being relegated a couple of years back, just because the crowds are so fun over here. Incidentally the four nations final really missed that

I love watching Gallen being dismissed by refs for being a dickhead. Just give him the old "nope, dont be an idiot, its a penalty go away"

Wayne will be happy, the dumpster fire wearing Sharks jerseys have saved him some time thinking up what to talk about to get the spotlight of our insipid performance.

Keen to see how many minutes Prior got. Don't really care if he's not a great scorer as long as he gets some decent minutes with some improvement to his average in the regular season, I want an out there POD in my team.

Didn't see game, presumably Cronulla pretty rank, but how were Brailey and Brown?

Not sure but maybe a just a wrap over the knuckles from Madge for a minor thing , runs a tight ship.

Both went ok but both are pass from playthe ball hookers no runs. I think Bailey came off at 30and came back on at 60.

Holy heck the sharks got reffed out of that game, and Cronulla rights side D let in all of the tries.
