Would make sense if they are talking about playing Ponga at 5/8 and have just signed Lino

Matterson and Watson were my 2 favourite Rookies of 2016.  Never thought we would ever be a chance of having either but one down now and one potentially that was linked to us last year as well  

Can only assume I won the forum's top bloke award and anything else remotely worthy of a prize.
I also assume SI won SC off the year!

Apparently the results were the same for the last 2 years !

He also got caught punching the shit out of his wife and cheating the salary cap. What's your point ? Cameron Smith knowingly signed 2 contracts, the respect that comes with captaining your country is gone.

Well Mr. Organised and running 50 thousand comps through the year. Guess who is doing the awards next year.






















Honeysett.

I've still not heard from the Roosters. Where is my signed shirt! :*(

Fergo will be gone before you get it, Cronk can't sign. Doubtful they would be back together before Christmas.

Go public!!!

Definitely have a bitch about it and see what else you can sting them for. Might be a car in it from Nick

@Verbal Kint Robbie said they're not back together for 6 weeks, but get to me what you want signed and he'll get the boys to do it.

I'd like my penis signed. Plenty of room on it.

I'll chop it off and pop it in the post.

I've emailed the Roosters (genuinely this time!) and sent a complaint to the NRL. That might get it moving... or I'll get told to piss off.

Here is an off-season meaningless stat for those bored (like me) who still tinker with player stats trying to find the ultimate formula to pick the best team come round 1.

Last season total team scores. These don't necessarily correspond to points scored in real life. Look at Parramatta for example, worst points for, but scored well in fantasy. But this instance aside, the top fantasy scoring teams were basically the top 8 teams.

rabbitohs____14666____611.08____35.95

panthers____ 13826____576.08____33.89

cowboys_____13260____552.50____32.50
titans_______13045____543.54____31.97

Player mid season swaps have been calculated. E.g Woods, the points he scored at the bulldogs were given to the bulldogs and taken from the sharks total.

I didn't do one for defense, it would be too time consuming only for it to likely show the worst defending teams gave away the most fantasy points. But then again there might be another Parramatta there too. I don't know for certain but at a guess I reckon Penrith might give away more fantasy points then their defense shows.
