The Bromwich TB was pretty obvious though UNLESS the player that fell off joined the tackle again (they have managed to make this subjective now somehow).  The Lisone error I don't think could be interpreted any other way either.

Just like R&T said. and they do count them. They shouldn't count them if the opposition get a 20m restart but they did, do and are counting them.

Weird they count them then. But if so then he should have it recorded. I'll scan the game when I can be fucked s also want to find that Bromwich TB.

Malakai Watene Zelezniak out of the Tigers with Michael Chee Kam in.


Damn was hoping to get some mileage out of him over these bye rounds, even if it was 20 points

Guess you are only allowed one hyphenated name in the back line at one time

A bit of carnage this round.

Ugh, without MWZ I can't field a full 17 this round. And foolishly have set up my trades and team so they can't be changed now.

Esan Marsters and Tui Lolohea ones to watch for the Tigs today. Really interested to see how they go.

Want to see Woods flop and Tedesco have the game of his life, please!

Chances are Teddy will go down in the first few minutes because I have captained him.

Apologies in advance.

This week is turning out junk for me. I had a shit R12 bye planning, but thought I could field a decent team, but all my junk point scorers have folded - Smith, Field, MWZ thats a good 50-70pts lost there.

This game...

My name is Bronchose, and I have a fantasy problem.

I was always struggling for numbers this round, Cam being rested, MWZ dropped, Graham will no doubt fail his fitness test. I'll be lucky to have 10 players this round now and will take a massive hit in the rankings.
I apologise to all L1 members for my woeful ranking dragging our league ranking down.
I have over 4.5 million sitting on the sidelines

Cam Smith possible fractured sternum

I'm torn between bringing in Taumalolo or Merrin but if my form is anything to go by the better option will end up being the player I don't buy and because Taumalolo has the highest ownership I will chose him and upset more people

I wouldn't trust anything coming out of Hooper's mouth but if true I might buy Brandon Smith & keep F. Kaufusi.

MWZ being out means I can loophole SJ's score if I want to.

Ummmm, yay?!

I had the same choice & went Lolo because of ownership & the fact he plays round 15 & Merrin doesn't. Also Merrin would have completed his 2 byes in round 15 so I can wait & get him in round 16. Merrin has averaged 68 over his last 3 games though.

Any more news on James Graham?

No news yet.

Fuck Lolohea got fat.

Possible sternum injury for Cameron Smith, usually a pain tolerance issue (can be needled). If a fracture (doubtful), can be 2-6 weeks

Thats what I was thinking Wolfy. Now he's in Sydney I think he is dining at a buffet with Merrin

welp, desperate times call for desperate measures and with MWZ out, i'm officially a dirty, dirty hypocrite, captain JDB sitting on the pine for the vice-Keptin's double points

You have to stick solid and maintain the rage for the coming weeks @Chucky.

Sick of the criticism of players letting the ball bounce, at times its a great call. Nene made the call and was right. Whereas if he caught that he was smashed into the goal for a dropout.

Apologies to White Lightning for being one of the ones talking you out of getting Widdop.
