    I don't expect massive changes.

    The reduction in interchanges is mostly because the stricter enforcement of the concussion rule meant more free interchanges last year and this is really just reigning that in.

    The total minutes available on field is still the same, so I think in general minutes will be the same. Teams will still have 2 props on the field all the time, so they'll just be expected to play for longer periods before they get a break. Props that can easily play 60 minutes like James Graham will be doing that a lot.

    I also think more teams will carry a utility on the bench in case of injury, and be content if they only end up using 16 players for the match

    Ankle is pretty swollen, but not very painful thankfully,

    Going in for surgery tomorrow, then just sitting around doing nothing for a while. Hopefully get a bit of TV/gaming in before I have to worry too much about anything else.

    Mrs Cow went on an X-Box acquisition trek for me this afternoon, Will find out the goody bag when she gets home from work. But unless there was a good bundle deal in store I'll just be getting FIFA or PES, which will be enough for me

    I do have a Wii already. Can't wait until kids are old enough for Mario Kart.

    Have tried Wii sports with the eldest (whose 4) but all she was really into was making new Wii people through the home screen. Might try again come Christmas.

    John Grant clearly doesn't play Fantasy.  Parra are the most bye friendly team.

    For next year in fantasy?

    Will take a lot to convince me he's worthwhile to own. Hasn't shown the kicking game to elevate himself to the top tier of fantasy halves. Will surely take on more of a dominant half role but can't bridge the 15-20 point gap in just line break and try assists consistently. Heard somewhere Foran would like to play at halfback so that should see a more hands on role in terms of leading the team around the field but there will surely be cheaper options with huge upside potential and even guys in a similar price range like Sezer/Maloney would be better gambles

    Was thinking Flash as well, but then looked at the price charts and he finished at 357k  Shocked .  Wouldn't have thought that in a million years.  Who had him last year?  Was it jstands?
