Basically, since this is your first year, you wouldn't know how Smith has been by far the best and most consistent fantasy player by a mile.

Quite a few people are criticising the rookie fantasy players for getting lucky by not following "Rule #1". I am a rookie player and ultimately decided to finish the year without Smith. This was because he has shown this year that he's just not as reliable as he has been in previous years. There are other players on the same level this year that make him not as necessary as he was in the past. I think a lot of longer term players are blinded by past years instead of what is actually happening this year.
I "got lucky" by choosing Crichton as my captain this week. I did so because I took the time to look closely at his scores, and as Vanish mentioned, his lowest score since he's been starting (a 11 game sample size) is 54, with an average over 70. But it's probably just because I'm a rookie who got lucky because I don't know what I'm doing.

Zora is using the word rookie loosely, second or third season.
In response to Zora, Cam actually has been as reliable as ever. Take away this week and he was averaging close to 65 from memory and only one score under 50 (47) in Round 1.

2nd season, but only my first real season as not much could be done last year when I didn't understand the concept of a cash cow when selecting my original team with 12 Sharks players in it.
In terms of reliability, I was referring to how everyone said that Smith always backs up after Origin, but this year he didn't. How he never gets injured, but this year he's had a few injuries.
When he plays he has still scored well, there's no denying that. But he has played a lot less than he usually would, which is where the doubt about his reliability has come from. Which is what made a few 'rookies' consider that perhaps he's not quite the same level of fantasy God he once was.
