    The loophole is not as good as the captain loophole from previous years. With the captains loop, you got both their scores as you'd just sub one to the bench. Therefore, you're gaining the most points from 2 players. This year, if you can be bothered, the loop only gives you the best of 2 players. While the difference would be sizeable, it's not as good as the captains loop IMHO... P.S. Not great at maths so don't trust me Laughing

    @multiple.scoregasms LOL so gutted about Rapana posting 3 weeks of trash and that the Raiders can't pass right lol but he'll stay, especially if he picks up DP hooker Laughing

    You guys just don't get it. I don't have a wife and kids, just a girlfriend who gets largely ostracized during footy season (to her eternal chagrin). I watch every game, spend 90% of my free time looking at NRL stats, and 100% of my time thinking about trades. My poor pathetic life wholly revolves around NRL Fantasy as depressing as that sounds. Surely I am entitled to something extra for my sacrifice? I deserve the loophole. The loophole exists for poor depraved souls like me. I have no pity for those of you with too much on your plate to take advantage, living your full happy lives while I am up at 3am comparing Chad fucking Townsend's kick metres across three seasons. You filthy fucking casuals make me sick!








    Very Happy ^_^

    How long should I wait till it is confirmed? It depends on whether Katoa becomes another WFB or should I just bite the bullet, save a trade and take the 40-50 points down this week?

    TPJ is running with the squad and if he gets through captains run he will play with Opacic dropping off via Pete Badel

    This makes me happy and angry

    Happy - because it means he plays
    Angry - because if he is limited and scores poorly I miss Havili's points

    Another aspect is not making cash from a cashcow.
    On average I make about 25k a week each from the cashcows on my EMG bench... if someone chooses to loop 1 or more non playing no cash making players they have the potential to forfeit this 25k in comparison (all depending on team make up). I can understand someone doing this for a couple of weeks, but longterm it can really hurt the overall value of their team compared to non-loopholers

    I would hope Bennett doesn't risk him if he's not 100% because we need him more than ever this season.
