    How are penalties going to work with the resetting of the set rather than the game stopping?

    Gonna be a very interesting restart to the season for so many reasons.

    Definitely going to help the stronger teams with dominating the ruck for sure

    8 May Update in the Fantasy website's notice board: https://fantasy.nrl.com/help/notice-board

    STATUS
    The NRL Fantasy season will recommence in line with the actual season, assuming it restarts as scheduled on May 28th. We will make an announcement in mid May regarding the associated changes to the Fantasy game. These will be minimal and dependent upon the form of the restarted NRL competition.

    Listening to Madge interview today, sounds like Grant will be starting hooker (no surprise there)

    Of course, for all of the Storm games, CS9 will be able to run one side of the ruck .... so that will help cheer

    Information available  on which teams each team will face twice this season
    https://www.smh.com.au/sport/nrl/who-your-nrl-team-will-play-twice-in-2020-20200510-p54rkb.html

    Warriors have an easy draw (Knights, Titans, Bulldogs included in teams they play twice)

    Top teams generally have tougher draws, due to broadcasters requesting more top match ups. The exception to this seems to be Raiders though, who get Warriors, Bulldogs and Knights twice.

    Tigers probably have the best draw: Play Panthers, Bulldogs, Dragons, Knights and Titans twice.

    Broncos with Cowboys, Souths, Storm, Roosters, and Eels twice. Always knew we'd get it tough (it is what it is), but they could of at least thrown us a Titans to round it out.

    The Warriors being away from their families for so long with zero home games, if we don't get the spoon I'll take it as a win.

    Just an opinion piece for now based on how they think broadcasters want to obtain max revenue, so don't give it that much weight until NRL confirms the draw later in the week

    Would love to see this deal go through and would be a definite in my team to start next season if it happens
    Rudolf may go to Warriors from 2021

    Wouldn’t be easy for Souths: Easts, Storm, Broncos, Parra and Dogs twice.

    That would also be the same broadcaster that owns the newspaper. Everything from Ch9/Fairfax on the RL at the moment is bargaining, not news.

    So far V'Landys has bluffed his bad hand into a winning position pretty much every time. Still think he's dodgy as fuck, but just the guy needed right now for NRL.

    The media now praising PVL for the newly negotiated long term deal is fkn hilarious. Of course the media are happy. They got the same product they were already paying for, for cheaper, for longer.

    NSW government have said they won't be banning any anti-vaxer players (as QLD have done) and say instead that it's up to the NRL to decide.

    #NRLFantasy coaches will be able to make up to 4 trades before round 3 and another 4 before round 4, while total trades for the 20-round season have been reduced from 34 to 28.

    I'll use 4 in week 3, and probably 4 in week 4

    With no origin its just going to be a race to final 17 and hope for no injuries.

    4 trades for R3 allows me to fix all my problems. Having performing cows not close to peaking is kind of a blessing and curse

    I wonder if everyone is starting on 28 trades or they’re deducting trades already used, could see people running out of trades quite early if they only have just over a trade a round after R3

    True mate but still need to generate some cash.

    Injuries will be an interesting factor worth saving a few... we obv can’t overthink it, but these boys won’t have the same full pre season conditioning

    Lone scout replied to my question to say hopefully by the end of the week we will have the 4 available.

    What he didn’t take into account, was Fiona

    Bring on the tinker!!

    A+
