Why would a club choose to self-inflict themselves by doing that then?
Long term benefits. The NRL doesn't really have a loan system for youngsters to experience the pressure of first team footy at another club (or it exists but clubs don't want to blood another club's rookies), so they need to play in the first team.

Have you noticed that off set plays we bring on Fox and Zac and Penisini and Russell shift to the wing ? That lasts for two tackles and on 2 occasions Penisini has ended up with the ball when it should have been the winger.

Not saying you are wrong about Penisini BTW, but use your wingers FFS.
The winger passed him the ball. Lomax comes in to take the hit ups because it's one of his strengths. If the opposing winger is going to come in on him, he should be passing to the unmarked man. Penisini has run for 130m in half a game.

I look forward to your thoughtful critique of Avenger's comment that started the 'conversation'.
Revisionist history... you started any such 'conversations' by choosing to troll the game day thread.

You used to exercise a little respect, and only make your troll posts in the game day thread after full time... when smart people had stopped looking at it.

But your attention seeking troll behaviour is now even stronger than any considerations for others here. So just f**k off for 40mins....

Here's Avenger's first mention of me in the thread:
And it begins. @Poupou Escobar getting the vaso out. It will be your night buddy.
Sure looks like trolling to me, but you knew that. I see you @bartman
