standard-issueIn saying that, Naiquamas deficiencies were his own fault for the most part.

Just revisiting this. Minutes being down 4 minutes, 3.5 of those minutes are purely due to the 3 minute concussion game and not the Watson effect. But your suggestion has still piqued my interest. As you say, taking out the 3 minute game improves his average by 2.6 to 52.8. From round 12 (except the injury game) they ran an 80 minute hooker for avg 60.3 (one try), 60.5 if you include the finals. And the year before avg 59 with much the same minutes avg 76. Do they continue with the 80 minute Friend? Who should I be wary of on the bench/rotation?
Bump, in case you guys want to talk about anything other than crap Tigers' centres?

Chee Kam was a little disappointing in general though. I watched a bit of him in NSW Cup and he was looking the goods. That was mainly at 2nd Row though. I really thought he would come on for us, but as you say, hard when the whole team is below average.
Yeah I watched him come through as well, didn’t really make the leap to first grade but the two people I’d never blame in the tigers are their centres. Until they have halves that can tackle it’s not their fault.

Sure mulvy, will you be starting with Friend if there's no Radley?

Definitely worth considering. Raiders have a great opening draw which the team but especially the goal kicker should benefit from.

Well who else could slip in there from time to time? I think that was Welshy's original question. Radley, Aubbs, some rookie I don't know about?

Is Cook going to play 80 this season or are we going to hear it again out of Souths all preseason then get two HOKs?

I hope so. I just love watching him play. It's possible we get Cook round 1 with no bench hooker and then a change two rounds later, but I'm taking the risk if named in round one without bench hooker.

By the way NRL fantasy you suck. Open already you useless bastards, and get some decent prizes. This forum is the main reason I'm playing. And I'm considering a Supercoach team!

Warriors. I'd love to be proven wrong, but when the Ladder Predictor thread opens they will be my #16.
Or are they going to be their usual "shit but not that shit"?

It will open tomorrow. I know this because I had the last 3 days off to sloth around and make a thousand versions of my team... but since I head back to work tomorrow, definitely tomorrow.

Hahaha. It always works out that I can have a week or two off just before kick off in March. Same again this year, have got 26th Feb to 11th March booked off
