    Personally I don't like catching up on the thread and seeing multiple down votes everywhere.  That's just me but it has a very negative connotation.  I understand downvotes are there for a reason, I just don't get why some posters would give so few positive votes in comparison to negatives.


    In regards Looping, I understand why some people don't like it and don't use it.  But it is there.  It is within the structure of the platform.  I consider myself a thoroughly honest person, and I would hope so would anyone who knows me in the real World.  I don't feel a single pang of guilt in Looping.  It is there.  Use it or don't.


    I don't understand moral objections to doing this. We are all competing to score the most fantasy points over a year by whatever means necessary. I would pick Hitler if he averaged 60 points a game

    Hmmm need to decide on CHT’s 57 over Haas (unlikely), Rein or Mahoney

    It would be Mahoney for me mate. Haas is a very good chance to go over 57, Rein has shown pedigree to do it before, Mahoney needed a try last week to do it while building up to 80 minutes.

    Referees are constantly in a no win situation and it's the fault of the fuckfaces in charge of reporting our game, who'll constantly ignore a good game to point out every wrong decision, or even just 50/50's decisions they didn't agree with, to the point it's trickled down into the common fan and now apparently no team is ever to blame for a loss, it's those fucking referees that are always enforcing the rules the opposite way 'we' want them to, when 'we' were abusing them for enforcing the rules THAT way the week before. Rant

    I thought there were some questionable calls in the Storm - Warriors game last night, but they seemed to go both ways. Repeated slow-motion views from multiple angles allow people, media and the video ref to scrutinize every single decision an on-field ref makes. I think it's a real blemish on sports in general.

    Referees are not going to make every single call possible throughout a game. Refs are going to miss calls or make wrong calls. The pressure these guys are on is so immense I give my hat to them. The more and more we break these calls down and break every single play down we are going to find blemishes. You will find blemishes in every single sport by doing this. It is great that we are able to implement technology into the game and bring it into todays times but the more and more the media and fans boil over a bad/missed call. Yes I get angry when a call isn't made but it's the game. Move on. We are becoming to demanding of the game and this is introducing more and more grey areas into the rules. The sooner we can just let the game be the game and let the refs ref the better. Two years ago the refs weren't calling enough so last year they cracked down and were calling more then everyone complained and this year they're calling less and people are complaining and instead of telling people to move on the NRL are just dropping those refs (resulting in so much pressure to make the call that if you make the wrong one you get dropped) or the media are blowing it out of proportion. The ref can only call what is in front of them, they don't have a birds eye view of the game, they have players running all around them, they have the crowd feeding them all game. That pressure is just Shocked I love this game and will watch every single game no matter what but the way some people behave over this sort of thing is why this game will never grow outside of Australia and New Zealand.

    Can some keen observers confirm that Frizell played lock with Host playing edge last night. I watched the game but didn't take any notice

    Lodge is starting tomorrow but for who I'm not sure. Probably Haas which will suck for a lot of fantasy teams.

    Leilua played middle too when he came on. Dunno why you'd play Host for 80 mins honestly and I'm an owner. It's not like he did anything wrong he just doesn't do much. Then playing Vaughan for 43 mins and Lawrie for only 37 is puzzling. Lawrie was outstanding yesterday and doesn't even play half the game.

    I haven't watched that closely, but I think Leilua has been better in the middle. When he went back to NSW Cup he played prop as well.

    To be honest I wouldn't be surprised to see Ofa moved to bench. He hasn't done much at all this year.
    Most likely that Haas will move to bench but could also see TPJ used as impact off the bench and Haas moved to lock.

    he was crap for a number of rounds but he lifted his game last week against the Raiders, was much better.

    I still think Haas is the guy you want starting the game. Bigger body, bends the line, but short term, Ofa probably holds the starting spot.

    Me too I am just not sure how they will do it with Lodge and TPJ back. I think TPJ is much better coming on after 20 minutes as he is the type of player that can lift the whole team when the game starts to go in the dull period.

    Probably right but his minutes have been low so hasn't been given much of a go really.

    If Host stays an 80 minute backrower I think we can keep him for a little while longer.
