I’m not sure that Jorge Taufua should be considered amongst the best.

I was making the point about getting close to a full 13, let alone one that features so many rep players.

While reading post after post about tackle breaks, I can certainly understand the frustration of watching a game and seeing a player you own get many tackle breaks that are not awarded as I have many times but because that stat is subjective, I'm just disappointed and move on. But yesterday I read a twitter from Chris Kennedy that said Tedesco was not awarded a line break because it was deemed to be only a half break and last night Fogarty kicks a 40/20 and is not rewarded because Fusitua touched it (not confirmed as the reason).
As far as I'm concerned, when the ball went into touch, Gold Coast did get the feed from the scrum so IT WAS a 40/20 and Tedesco WAS a line break.
I would love to know, what the hell are they thinking to deny these stats.

If they get a 40/20 they get tap restart, so I guess if they don't get tap restart, you know it's not a 40/20

Still a great kick, and could see Fogarty taking on more responsibility in future given how he went when Taylor went off

Jason Taylor

Yeah great post mate. That Teddy line break could go either way, obv I see it as a line break as he broke the line but I guess others will see it as a half break. The thing I'm concerned about along with the other 5% of Mofo owners is his TB count from last night. That second stint alone he broke at least 4 tackles, had 2 runs with 2 TB in each. Clear as day and missed. It's not something minor aswell, they owe him like 10 points because he also broke 2 tackles on Egan and Hethrington in his first stint. Pretty dodgy, guess CK must not own him aye

Thanks mate. I can't remember now but if that's the case, then OK, but Supercoach stats awarded it.................

So what does a half break mean? Do you have to run a certain distance after breaking the line to be considered a full break?

Saturday afternoon, I like to sit down and read through Friday night games chatter. I would have looked at the fantasy scores beforehand so it always a great amusement to see people's thoughts and reactions on the game that I watched live without that much enthusiasm specially so when people go off certain player midway through the first half or if the TB's get missed. Thanks for keeping me entertained.

I don't own Mofo, so didn't watch him closely but many times who have to wonder WTF

Hey DK. I think it's just crap. He broke the front line and was in the backfield.

Ultimately its just our own personalities showing how much u do and don't care about this type of thing, around stats i mean. End of the day we all cop the unfairness if it is going on, all players are scored by the same mob. And if u think its ur players only, or certain players thats just ignorance. We are all on the same unfair playing field here, remember that. If u accept this, u will have much more fun. Whether ur guy got 3 tb's, or 7, it happens every week and for every player. So just know ur guy had a gud game and move on, enjoy it.

Did @welshy grab Milford or not? I cant remember

ANYWAY, it is Milfords birthday today. Im jumping on Milf any time try scorer. Time to get the party started.


Or not, who knows. Team is a basketcase

Hold on a minute. I just rewatched Mofo's 2nd stint on nrl.com full match replay and counted 6 tackle busts. Can someone pls watch the replay and tell me if I'm getting the definition of a TB wrong?

15:47 to go: 1 TB (Lawton missed tackle)
14:15 to go: 2 TB (JTB and Papalii missed tackle)
8:10 to go: 1 TB (CHT missed tackle)
2:50 to go: 2 TB (Harris and Lawton missed tackle)

Lol they owe myguy 9 points. That's pretty significant to be honest...

Precisely Rev.
I try to watch every game and as far as I can recall I have never felt the urge to post about a missing TB, LB or whatever.
I trust that it will be picked up in reviews. If it doesn’t, then so be it.
Yes I own Latrell and yes I think he’s owed at least 3 or 4 TB’s, maybe more.
As Rev said, if you learn to accept that, you will enjoy yourself a lot more, and it will also make it so much easier to catch up on the actual forum news.

The extra two trades last week was far more significant, but you told everyone who had a problem with that to chill out

Yeah ur missing the point mate, every player in the nrl is scored by the same mob. Or are u saying the scorers have a vendetta against particular players ? Tin foil hat time ?
