    “Dud cow” might be better - or slower burn than should be due to bang average points.

    Reserving trap for the likes of Cam smith or Watson or Ofa or LAM - someone that appeals at a higher price that is pushed at their expected/needed average OR could easily get their minutes wrong
    I think the midrange traps are the worst of the because you’re expecting to be able to play them. If a gun fails you can trade to anyone without headache. If a cow fails likely you weren’t playing them anyway

    There’s no way you could post enough mate. The only downside is that your reasoning is generally so good everyone would end up with your team

    I like some banter with Rabs. I’m pretty careful who I do it to here because I don’t want to come across as a prick so I usually save for him, you, SI and Filth. Mainly because we all know that you lot are pricks.

    On Stimson I tend to agree with him. I see a 40 average without a high score in there to speed up his cash generation. With all the value in the 2nd row I’ll be looking elsewhere.

    You cock!

    Don't agree on Stimson, 1 try last year and wasn't in an 80 minute stint. 54 high score with no try in 80. Full time 80 minute role, I'm expecting consistent 45s with 60+ games with a try

    If he is a great line runner, why just 1 try all last year?

    Hoffman was a great line runner. only 4 LBs and 2 tries in 2017 onlt 3 tries and 3 LBs in 2016

    What does just the 1 try prove?

    If anything should improve on that with a full time role

    Yeah that case needs some work. Saddest part is your other man also in the picture if anything but reads worse than I’m sure it is... can’t believe she thought she was going back to his gaff for a cup of tea.

    Early part of the story (and I know that club and all of those streets well back home) doesn’t sound like she was coerced in any way to go anywhere she didn’t want... she just pulled JDB at the club after all, who would be THE catch at Mr Crown!

    On the brightside all those streets are very bright and populated, especially at the end of a night so the truth will certainly come out at the sort of interaction and relations they were having before their “taxi”.

    Sad state of affairs either way. Horrifying if he’s in the wrong and shocking if this is worse than it was because he did something stupid and drunken like tell her to go home after they had their way. In no way trying to by cynical at a case of this severity but almost hoping she’s a nutter, not because I give a shit about JDB but because it’s just really beyond bad, and very sad if so


    This is my thinking. Reading that article, it feels legit though. I'll reserve judgement for the courts

    Let’s see what you look like in 20 years. Even now....the chicks still want the Rabbit in the hole champ.
    1. Have you lost your virginity yet? I’m not talking about your arse either.
    2. I don’t need to see what you look like. I know it will be far inferior to me.

    I haven't even seen this considered on here, but would it be crazy to start with Latrell instead of Bird? Entirely confident he's going to be the best scorer in his position at season's end, possibly even undervalued if the Roosters have figured to GIVE HIM THE FUCKING BALL, and could give your starting team a real scoring jump if he hits the ground running, given nobody seems to be considering him.

    As with Ted, you're going to have him at some point, why not from the start. I know, I know, don't spend on centres but could he be an exception?

    When asked to describe myself as a footballer I always say great line runner.
    I’d happily wager he’ll be averaging under 45 after say 6 weeks?

    Lots of value players that can also score well there this season. Last year it was a wasteland.

    Mid rangers have always been the bane of a fantasy coach, usually rookies not fully undestanding the inner fantasy workings but seems the game is shifting to value

    I honestly don't see the worry in picking Stimson and only expecting 40 points? He is priced at 28! It's start of season you ain't getting those 900s unless multiple picks go huge R1-3. P

    Seen loads of teams with Haas on bench, for what 20/25 points? Whats the difference?

    Yes I agree if you find the Kikaus who start at base and match the likes of Stimson for much cheaper. But they are rare and usually wait a few rounds to see if their role is concrete before stating them

    How many tries did you score?
    6 weeks ain't a fair reflection, has to be over season

    But fuck it, I don't mind, will take it.

    This is the year that I won’t waste trades on centre so I’ve considered him a lot. He’s just too good not to get the ball more this year and when he has opportunities he scores points.

    Just figured out I must've joined Sportal in 2007.
    Back then I started playing EPL fantasy but was slowly dragged over to the dark side.
