HomeI guess the bigger issue is if they don't fix the stats up for the first 10 minutes, both Murray and Cook captainers will be greatly disadvantaged and that really wouldn't be fair to anyone.

I can accept that. I never went out to purposely cause shit and tried to write it in a non threatenting way, but that's fine mate, we're all men.

Yeah, I'm not trying to start anything, I just feel very comfortable here that I can share something I'm thinking. Of course, wish I captained him too, I guess for some reason, he just never entered into my thinking at all for captain. For me it was Murray, Arrow and Ponga. Went Murray and Cook sitting there not even giving a second look. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but he has certainly become the CS9 for captain choices by the looks. It's almost a disadvantage him going so well cause no everyone that didn't captain him will jump on.
Yeah for sure, I was just saying to MF that it was out of Cook, Jurbo or Fifi but decided on Jurbo as he done so well the last few weeks.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but might look at him next week.

I hope Cotric keeps the fullback spot so I can piss Inglis off! I only just got him too, such an idiot...

Doesn't help that when weighing up captain options, that it doesn't display player averages unless you check them individually.
I overlooked Cook completely too, hiding up there in corner. Tunnelvision for me was on Cam, Murray and Fifita, and once you have 3 options, you're not really paying attention to anyone else.

I may be way off, so I apologise if I do but there was a lot of Murray talk, Ponga, JTurbo, DCE but no real talk on Cook. I don't mind, I own Cook anyway and captained Murray so whatever but it just amuses be a bit. I guess it's just like the talk last week about people only posting their scores when they are doing well. Again, apologies if I'm out of line. Carry on.
Fair Call, my bad Wolfking. My excitement may have shot a little too hard, just got off work and was glad to see no one had chucked a Feeney/Elgey/Nabuli on me. Honestly no bad intentions, just a tired happy bloke

100% mate, its so frustrating! a Maddening game!wolfking wrote:

On a serious note, Cook might be with Macca as the safest captain choice around
Without his attacking potential he looks good for minimum 40 tackles a game and his RM and the odd kick will put him over 50 with no bother

Yeah, I'd look at him for Whitehead I think, but truthfully, even Cotric still on the wing is going to be much better than what GI is dishing up.
As a bunnies man, GI is a legend, we know that but his time is up. He needs to step aside and be a leader off the field. Sutton and ARey too. ARey offered nothing again, just like he has since 2015. We need the new blood in there. We will never go forward unless we move some of these guys on. Doueihi is the future of the club, along with Murray.

I didn't mean to cause this. It's all good mate, my issue obviously, I can cop that. Well done on the captain choice. I apolgoise this place is perfect for advice and sharing how your team is doing, I wasn't aiming it at you, it was just an observation on a whole. My bitterness, I'd gloat too.

There is an awesome website that displays each players average very clearly.... http://www.nrlfantasy.com.au/players.php

The bunnies looked great at the end, is there a way they could maybe squish Doueihi in?

I’m not a bunnies fan so I don’t know, but they look good with Doueihi.

Exactly what I had, Tunnelvision. Just so weird after the fact.

One of the reasons why I enjoy draft over regular NRL Fantasy. No captain to be selected and any given player can only be selected once. Rewarding when a risky pick turns to gold since nobody else in the league can own that player.
