2016 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 38

Wow got up to 624 thanks to Sam Burgess' efforts. He was having a shit game from what little I saw I wonder how he got that much, oh lord I can only imagine how high I would have got with Ryan James (Damn you Broncos it's your fault not Bodene's he scored so low). I don't even want to know his score ended up being.
Seeing his score will be like the time I saw the girl I really liked making out with another guy. It feels like someone just stabbed you in the heart.

I am on 523 with only those exact 5 players left. Though Fifita is my captain.

743 with Fifita (C), Barba and Holland.

Fifita could go either way tonight, but against the Dogs, don't see too many busts or offloads.

Of course. This is the internet, you can basically say whatever/abuse somebody and nothing comes of it in the real world.

i was hoping to pick up Nathan Cleary this weekend but missed my moment due to Jahrome Hughes already being locked out, (rookie error )

Disappointed after the panthers game I checked his ownership and it was a lowly 457 entries , checked again this morning and it seems to have increased after the lockout to 473 entries .

Other than the Fiasco which allowed trades after lockout is there any other possible explanation as to why his ownership would increase? .

Great pick-up... though not as great a pick-up as Cleary would've been!

I'd assume the stats aren't exactly live and therefore might be a bit of discrepancy between the numbers.

My understanding was that you could trade players that hadn't played up until the start of the Titans/Bunnies game so you shouldn't have been able to bring in Cleary after yesterday's malfunctionitis.

Not interested in reading through the pages of clusterfuck from yesterday - has there been any reason given for Tim Grant's absence?

I was planning on trading him and BLaw to a nuffie and Surgess next week, but Blaw's 9 and Grant's DNP combined with Surgess going large probably mean I can't afford to.

Green Grant listed with a rib injury, apparently.

Now he is owned by 7328.

I'm sure a bunch of people legitimately traded him in, but I wonder how many of those 378 people traded him in after he pumped out 100

The site being down or not, I'm surprised so few people traded him in.

I traded him in this comp, VSDT and SC and it appears like all and sundry (at least in the Leagues I am in) traded him in too.

To me that figure sounds like they have already amended the teams that did the sly trade.

That's interesting because I took a screenshot last night at about 1am your time and he was at 7310 ownership.

So you are 100% on that 6950 figure as I could reasonably believe that the majority of those 370 odd new owners legitimately bought him in, considering his average/minutes/1 bye left etc. The change between 7310 and 7328 is a bit different. Updates were in when I took that so I was assuming all ownership numbers would have changed as well.

Makes me wonder whether only 28 people bought him in after lockout? Not saying that is the case but seems it could be.

Hope you bastards in WA are enjoying your day off.

Don't worry everyone, detective softcock's on the case!

Is there a lag at all to ownership numbers being updated though?
