    SI, Slaters was about mid 2nd half. He kicked it about 24 metres but went dead. That doesn't matter because shit kicks still get awarded anyway.
    Lisones was mid 2nd half too. Luke passed him the ball from dummy half, it went slightly behind him but Lisone caused the knock-on

    I understand these things can be missed when taking live stats but the reviews just aren't picking them up. If I saw these 2 things how many other fuck-ups did they have just in that game?

    Well I like it because it makes me invest in other teams and take an interest in games I otherwise wouldn't. I mean take last night for instance, I wouldn't have been getting up and cheering 'KING GUTH!' when he scored that late try if I wasn't playing Fantasy.
    I'd still love him as a player sure but them sweet points make it all the more better.

    Yep, I remember Lisone's and it was his error.

    Did Slater's go out on the full? If so he won't get the metres. If it went dead after a bounce then he should have got the metres.

    Nah just dead mate, not out on full! I just think old prozone has been told by owner Stats to cut costs. Their needs to be some visible and public means to voice discontent with the poor quality stats being churned out. Not sure how though. Via lone scout might be a good way but he'd need many people to bombard him with it. I know he has nothing to do with the stars but he does appear to be the best bet to voice concerns over the deterioration of the fantasy scoring. Anyone else have suggestions?

    I thought if the kick went dead, regardless of out on the full or if it bounces 100 times, it counts as an error.

    So it went dead in goal? If so, I don't think they count it.

    The Bromwich TB was pretty obvious though UNLESS the player that fell off joined the tackle again (they have managed to make this subjective now somehow). The Lisone error I don't think could be interpreted any other way either.

    Yeah that's the upside for me too. Usually have some interest in all 8 games.

    For those that think they're addicted to fantasy may I suggest to you Honeysett's retreat. You deposit large sums of money into my account and we'll do a shit ton of drugs and womanising that you'll forget all your troubles and be cured. 100% success rate or your money back*

    *no money back.

    Just like R&T said. and they do count them. They shouldn't count them if the opposition get a 20m restart but they did, do and are counting them.

    Any word on Graham's fitness test this morning?

    Weighing up Mcinnes but looking at Maccas scores I'm not really sure I want him. He may be my only option this week though.

    Re Graham they have the captains run today so should get more insight then. I took a risk & sold him before lockout for Taumalolo as I wanted to captain him. I have Tualau who will come into the 17 if Graham is ruled out so that was my backup plan.
