Anyone else got a fantasy team going?

I made one on the NRL site the Toyota NRL Dream Team, not taking it too seriously and I forgot to even check my team, so 2 of my players weren't even playing on the weekend just past haha, but I've readjusted for this week

I got 453 points, apparently I'm leading my league of 8 or whatever, I'm just in some random league

Wow, would've been interesting to see what would've happened had that try early in the 2nd half been looked at, looked like a knock on and everyone was a bit confused apart from Wallace who just ran over the line and that was it, try scored. In all honesty Brisbane looked better all night apart from a couple of patches where the Storm picked up their intensity, but yeah, who knows what could've happened had it been referred

Also, looks like the Rabbits have come crashing back to earth haha, haven't seen the match, just the score...

The Storm were robbed!!! And I have to agree with Bellamy and Smith - whats the point of having 2 refs if neither could see what was a blatant knock-on??!! Even the players stopped - I demand justice!! I demand vengeance!! I demand blood!!

So two referees, while speeding up the ruck means we now have two incompetent morons officiating at a time.

Souths were robbed, Parra was given 12 points because of ridiculous penalties, we might as well just say you cannot touch the kicker on the 5th tackle if they are going to be penalised for hitting the kicker as he kicks the ball.

Melbourne were robbed due to the referees being the only 3 people among the 30,000 crowd 26 players on the field and however large the tv audience was who missed a blatant knock-on.

Penrith were (supposedly) robbed when the Dogs (supposedly) had an extra player on the field when they scored their last minute try.

On top of that all the silly and downright dumb calls made in the other 11 games played thus far this season, I guess we can call 2009 the year of "two refs making a bigger mess than one"

Wonder what they will screw up in tonights game?

On the flip side, go the Warriors, these guys vs. Broncos should be a screamer next week. And a shame to see the Roosters win, was looking forward to having them at the bottom of the table for as long as possible.

Thats the positive thinking that I'vecome to know and love from you mate.

BTW Good win for the Tigers on friday. Everyone is raving about Benji but I am thankful that Tuiaki finally realised he's bigger then 99% of wingers he marks up on and can run over them.

[jacksplatt11]

Benji is in great form, keeping my fantasy team score up there

Tuiaki is a monster, haha 108kg or something like that, that's a big winger

Forgot to check my AFL super coach team before the round started, a few of my players aren't even playing arrr, better get on it before next round
