It was Lewie for me; seemed a great professional and clubman and he left at a time where it felt we had lost our way. Everything about it was sad.
same then again with wade graham.
I wont be as fussed if we loose nathan as i see it as inevitable. Yeo will kill me though.

If Nath comes back in similar form he’ll be halfback and if he’s halfback Yeo has to be lock. I think he’s the best forward in the game so should be there anyway but the combination with Cleary is too compelling anyway. Murray is for sure the only option close but as has been said his versatility probably means he’ll play a lot of games off the bench.

Murray is good but miles off Yeo

I don't pay attention to it at all. Terrible system.

I'd like more emphasis to be placed on the team of the year rather than an individual.

Do we even have an award for player of the finals series? We have one for Origin. That is when it really counts.

Might need to return to the old Rothmans days when the refs did the 3-2-1.

This is absolutely not the answer.

When I was reffing, my area would make the refs give 3-2-1 for all grades, and it was a nightmare. I would always delegate the task to someone else. Either my Dad (who always liked to come along to the footy), or my Touch Judges, or the Ref's Coach sitting in the stands.

There is just far too much going on for you to properly take in who is playing well.

I once saw a guy pick up the 3 points in a reserve grade match. He only played 15mins, his team was down by 3 tries already, and he got taken off the field in the back of an ambulance. The ref gave him 3 points because "he's always good". Just farcical stuff.

Ahh yes the Billy Slater system

No chance of winning unfortunately, Nathan will take too many points off him. Such a flawed system

The Storm grubs won it.
Papenhuyzen in 2nd will lose points to Munster and co
on 6 points players in teams that likely end with 50% win records at best
