    Just want to take the time to point out the price predictor on the NRL Fantasy site is completely wrong, and yet once again MTB has bested them with an accurate predictor on his site.

    This is getting embarrassing for fanhub, MTB schooling them YET again. What are their overheads?!

    Calker is just that kind of player mate. With Radley, capable of coming good over the long term and deserved a few more weeks. I don’t have him so easy for me to say though.

    I'm holding him. Without those MTs, he scores 44 which I was hoping for. Not the best start but a wait and see unless there's a player worth trading to

    If you are expecting a 55-60 average from Friend over the season, I'd be moving my team to get him in!

    Especially after that Mammoth score and price rises coming. Opened season at 48 average

    Probably starts next week when Aubs moves to the centers with Mitchell sure to be suspended for his cheap shot on Surgess.

    They should just pay him to run their site.. Can't believe a guy who makes a site for enough money for a few beers can out class them.

    PS @mtb, how do you code the live stats to your site?

    As a non Macca owner I was very worried about not having him at HT. What was he on, 40 or something? I think it’s a bit early personally. I think they end up averaging very similar by the end of the year. Could be wrong; I own neither.

    He might not but I'd want to be sure I have a dud on my hands before I spend a trade on what might not be a huge upgrade.

    Read an article today saying that he is staying in the middle for a while, especially with Lodge suspended

    Hang on, missed tackles are worth negative 3 points this year?  

    Serious question.

    According to MTBs calculator, Radley> Gillett will cost 94k

    And that is exactly the amount I have in the bank.

    If that pans out and Gillett is named at lock again, I might be helpless to resist the power of the perfect number

    You’ll have something to cheer about this year mate. Great recruitment over the last few years.

    Serious question.

    I think he is counting the missed points plus the points he would have made if he made the tackle.

    im not sure that works for the way Radley gets his MTs though, shooting out and sometimes never even trying to tackle, just put pressure on

    Friend
    3 TBs, 2 LBs, 1 T = 27 points
    41 RM, 88 KM = 8 points
    Made 68 tackles and missed 4 = 60 points

    Macca
    0 attacking stats = 0 points
    31 RM, 66 KM = 6 points
    Made 51 tackles and missed 4 = 43 points

    I know we said the broncos had no ball but quite literally that 2nd half the roosters had no ball for large periods. They seem to be the same player but Friend just had a big game. If you'd be happy with Friend scoring like Macca this week then do it but if you like Friend then I think you like Macca just as much and are paying 70k for a quick price rises and similar points. Would be looking for another way.

    I see both making 45-60 tackles a week with 2-4 misses. Combine that with a few cheeky darts and kicks and you have 45 - 65 points a week. The attacking stats I feel will be close at seasons end so not crediting them much now. Bring Friend in by all means but not at the expense of the same player. Also he's a keeper at 780k  that will quickly crater with one sub 40 game and that big score dropping out. If he is a slightly better Macca do you want to commit multiple trades to him for scoring you already have?


    This in a nut shell. Pretty much the same player.

    Yeah fair enough.  And thats what worries me too.  Can tackle well but heaps of coming out early which leads to the miss.

    I'm a grand novice - who thankfully owns both of these guys - but I'd have to agree with this stuff. Even to me, trading in one for the other would be madness as the other is just as likely to do what the other did next week, surely?
