    The big advantage I can see is having a game played in Suncorp every single week. Footy heads would go to watch a neutral game, although wouldn't have as many as Broncos games

    How long will that novelty last though?

    Unless they are top 4 from the start, it will be hard to get people to buy in for the long haul.

    An interesting approach may be to target the 8 to 14 year old audience. If you can get kids interested then you will get their parents taking them to games. It worked for the BBL where they fill the gabba for Heat games

    That seems like what GWS Giants did in Sydney too. Just smashed the schools with programs, free tickets etc. and playing the long game of building the fanbase up from kids and hoping they stick with it

    This is why I have no issue with players doing what’s best for themselves.

    Taken for granted type of player. Where is he off to ?

    I guess it is a legitimate and advantageous tactic these days. Mahoney could be throwing them forward more often.

    The bulldogs tried this approach in Port Macquarie earlier in the year.
    I hope Redcliffe try a different approach.

    Captain Haas this week. Got 16 players (unless Williame plays, then it'll be 17!)
    Went from 2350 to 3050 last week so hoping to creep back into the top 2.5k.

    This week's stats article looks at the changes in the game due to the new rules - which positions have been impacted, penalties v ladder position & importance of possessions/completions: https://sporttechdaily.com/our-insights/your-edge-round-20/

    If you're interested in tryscorer odds/draftstars, we've added another feature for 'Edge' where you can filter by column headings. Think it was @milchcow that recommended this. So you can see all the best 'value' bets for the weekend:

    Asi and Averillo are on my shortlist for next season.
    I might even start with Turbo, go along for the ride until the first injury hits. Fogarty will also be under consideration, the Titans should have plenty more attacking stats next season

    Assuming you've got nothing to play for, could be a great POD pick. With so much unpredictability this round, think the most important thing to do is to lock in your vice captain as someone you'd be happy with being your captain. Most teams should have two of haas, cleary, ponga, mcinness etc.
