Hey guys. Dan here.
Sorry I had to take a step back during the peak last season (I couldn't keep up with all the posts haha) I'm Back for that time of year where the Mrs stops talking to me and gives me the stare of death everytime I pick up my phone ???? Ended up dropping 500odd places and finishing 992nd after a few risky captaincy picks for the final few rounds of the year. I've looked through the posts this year and you guys are on form!!! Glad to be back and I'll post up my 1st draft when I get time to set my laptop up.
Great work on the spread sheets and hard work once again Milchcow!!!!!

I had him in my first draft... after reading the Nrl.com fantasy write up for the Storm.
I had a look at some stats in @Milchcow's masterpiece and send Sammy home packing...

Hahaha, @Milchcow

In theory he should be quicker, but losing the beard may have reduced his toughness.

Sounds like Sam Kasiano has been training the house down

I love that you think that somewhere in my spreadsheets I've kept a record of ratio of facial hair to fantasy points

and who wears their socks high

and who tapes their ears

Former Raider Kato Ottio passed away from a 'sudden health issue' at training yesterday

23 years old. Far too young. Best wishes for his family.
