This is such bad taste. With the amount of downvotes, I’m glad other people feel the same way.

*Hey mate, I've edited this quote as I have removed the initial post you were quoting, cheers, SI*

Just an off game, Storm are the fantasy killers for a reason.

He's also been dudded at least two tackle breaks, if not more, so by rights he should be on 36 at least.

I didn't even notice that till now, yeah ST this ain't it chief.

Probably an unpopular opinion - I think Haas is overrated at this point of his career. He might have made 55 tackles, but I reckon you could count on one hand the number he’s first man into a tackle with a solid hit.

That’s a send off every day of the week.

I don’t think he is overrated but Brisbane are definitely not getting the best out of him.

Haas is in a similar position to Lolo, a good player in a ordinary team.

his attack is great, always bends the line if he doesn't bump 1 or 2 off, but yeh, I'm souring on his defensive efforts, mountain of a kid but he never uses his size, it's all very grabby and soft, don't think i can ever recall a Haas big hit, it's more stats-paddy than it is effective. the Grant try was really disappointing, especially considering how early in the game it was, Boyd would've (and has) gotten dragged by the media for an effort like that, Grant didn't strip him for pace or anything, just ran in between him and Te'o, he was there to be tackled and Haas just got shrugged off trying to grab at his collar.

Agreed, I've edited the original post and EXTREMELY unlike Troopers.

Very difficult to say this, but he played very well.  I think it mostly got missed but he still got a bit of grubbiness in, blatantly took Luke out off the ball with a raised forearm.

80 min Twal might not be a thing when he returns

Glad I didnt flick Lucy. Now I just need the same from Best tonight to justify keeping him.

Lucy to Crichton to change captain off Haas what a belter of a trade

Lose over 60 points this week and probably lose 50 each week Crichton is out because my EMG sucks

9/474(c)

Lucy helping to make my score look ok.

C on Grant has cost me 24 points, annoying but not the end of the world. Theory was fine, didnt think Haas would play 80 after comments during the week, ah well.

Would anyone play HTF over Fogartys 21? I mean, at worst HTF probably scores 10 again... but he could.. do.. better? Lol

5/377 C and Lucy sitting on a Banner this morning!

8/436,sucks having to cop both Talau and Nius scores but still time to turn it around. Cook,Taupau,Yeo,Luai,Cleary,Lomax,Ponga,Koro and Clune to come

I am going to play him over Talau (19). Already have Fog and Niu’s score in my 17.

Ummm everyone plays Niu right?

342 from 8 incl cotric, niu and papz. Traded Luc out a few weeks ago so can't feel bad there. Carn captain Lolo!

9c/479, pretty meh - captained Tedesco.

Had MoFo, Young, Niu and Papy amongst that lot.

I had to play Niu with Latrell out and I also have to play Field and JTB so it could get a lot worse.

Is it a coincidence that L. Leilua scored so well & got more ball because Brooks wasn't there. His 2nd try was out of the blue & unpredictable but the 1st try I doubt Brooks would of passed to him. It almost has me thinking of going Angus back to Lucy just for the cash (not chasing points) so I can get a better 16th man. With the Warriors & Bulldogs in the next 4 games he could do well.
