    Tour de France

    Well done, doddy. O might give it a go next year - if you can explain it in a reasonably simple way. Too much for me this year.

    FFGenie alternative

    Sorry Prospy. My skills aren't up to it. In fact, I paid for SC Gold and use that instead. Not as good but better than nothing. Still use FFGenie for RDT.

    I did the research because I thought that Rocky might continue to drop in price and by rnd.19/20 could be about $440,000 or so. Even if he never goes back to his peak scoring he would still be a better M9 than any rookie. It would be worth trading a matured rookie to get him. I could go...

    From what I've been able to discover it takes about 12-16 weeks for a dislocated shoulder to come good. If this holds true for Rocky he should be coming good from about rnd.20 on. He was injured on 13 May; he was out for 4 weeks and returned on 12 June ; he should be near his best 12 weeks after...

    Go Patreons!!!! Really want that league to win. My team, Cavalier Roundhead, is doing its best.

    Round 16 Trades

    I like Petracca being named at centre. With all the mids out injured and Hogan back it is a good sign that Petacca will likely be spending a lot more time in the middle. So, yes, he could come home strong. But have you noticed that he tends to handball a lot when he plays mid? Whether it's...

    A really off-the-wall idea: trade-in Sean Darcy.

    There is a lot that has, and will be, said about Gaz this week but there is one stat that cements his greatness for me. At the Suns, a bottom team, his CP numbers up until his injury are outstanding: 2011: 14.75 - 2nd in comp.; 2012: 14.9 - 3rd; 2013: 14.9 - 2nd; 2014: 17.6 - 1st then injured...

    Not me this year, sorry. It's too much work for me to keep having to choose riders. I just don;t have the energy this year. But good luck to all.

    Round 15 trades

    I hope so as I brought him in a few weeks ago and he's averaged 130+ for me. I don't know about 130+ scores but I think that a110+ average is feasible. He is playing really well and doing it all: not just hit-outs but possies, marks, tackles and goals. And he's done it against all the best rucks.

    Tour de France

    @keffa Too far for me to travel, unfortunately, as almost 2,000km. Would have loved to be there. I noticed Cooke was an owner of the AG2R bike. I'd never heard of the brand Factor before, though. Pretty impressive to get a TdF team to use it in their first year. I also noted that the TdF bike...

    Yeah, it's fun and a great addition while watching Le Tour.

    Tour de France

    I don't think so, @doddy2731 . We can't find any decent fantasy comp. SBS and RCUK ran the good ones and neither is running a comp this year. None of the others are worth it, imho. Do you know of one?

    Tour de France

    Hi Grater. I've been looking for any decent Fantasy TdF and can't find any. I don't like the set-and-forget types. What if you lose a rider in the first couple of stages? Or, as happened with me 2 years ago, you lose 4? Your team is stuffed as you can't replace them. But if you're looking for a...

    On Bont's DE: only 3 out of his first 9 disposals were effective = 33.3% but 16 of the remaining 19 were effective = 84.2% in total 19 out of 28 were effective = 67.9%

    Round 13 trades

    In an interview I heard last week Richardson said that Freeman was still a few weeks away. He's played about 10 games straight without really starring and there is no way they'll play him in the AFL unless they are absolutely sure he is OK. But the Freeman went out and played his best game on...

    Not a bad score from him. Agree he didn't tackle much but it looked to me like he spent most of his time on a wing.

    Round 12 Trades

    As a fellow Sainter: think how unhappy you'll be if the Sainters lose and he performs badly or, worse, gets injured. But I think he's a decent pick. He's got a set role as a mid rotating through the half-fwd line like so many others. He's shown he can score when doing that. He may average...

    Greene for me, too. With all the injuries there's a chance he'll get more time on-ball.
