NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 38

Rabbit wrote:I think the reason people don’t like the loop is that it came about through a fuck up and someone stumbled on to it. It was never meant to be there and now failhub are touting it as an additional part the game. It was a fuck up.....pure and simple. Get rid of it. It shits me to see plebs get lucky with it when they’ve mismanaged and get a lucky escape. Having said that, I don’t really give a fuck now. Failhub are a joke. The game is rigged

Don't sell him short mate. 1 Error and 1 Penalty Conceded too

Yeah cheers mate. Am reconsidering Haas actually. Surely doesn’t play 80 with Lodge back.

Now up to 35% ownership though, so the conservative play is probably copping his score

By the way I read a report that if all the billions hidden away in tax havens was taxed at the correct rate then it would solve world poverty. In NZ the favourite pass time is bashing the beneficiaries because in the eyes of the public they are ripping the system off but nothing is ever said about the rich & their tax havens because these people are ripping off the tax system & the country in a massive way & way, way more than any beneficiary could.

Even if Kata is given another week, I'd rather see Herbert in our centres than Hiku. Hiku played well last night but is a liability in defense at centre. I'd also give up on this small bench we've been going for and just choose one out of Tevaga and Roache not both.

I think its a wrong analogy.

Probably best way to describe this if a tax dept/accountant give you two options to calculate and pay tax.

You can take option 1 and pay whatever tax.

Or you can take tax option 2 but here the accountant will provide a disclaimer that option 2 tax payment could end being higher than option 1. So you have to take a risk.

Well that isn't even a real life scenario! Tax accountants don't do that.

I agree that it isn't illegal, it's just unethical, not in the spirit of the game.

Everyone has the ability to loop if they want to. Not everyone can set up accounts in caymens and save millions in tax. So comparisons aren't fair on either spectrum.

Sorry. Wasn't intended as a real life scenario but I get what you are saying.

Herbert is good and better option than Hiku/Kata centre option but I dont think he can change the course of the overall match.

Not happy with Luke's contribution this year and I think we should start with Roache. I know his experience count but I dont think yesterday he did much to control the game when Warriors needed him the most.

Luke made only 18 tackles. How is that even possible.
