Message: [QUOTE="Manifesto, post: 2546755, member: 8128"] I've played NRL Dream Team for the last 7 or so years, so I know the ins and outs of fantasy teams and stats breakdowns. I admit Reed isn't a great player from a fantasy team viewpoint, but nor was Locky. Locky was a very poor half in dream team, as was Foran. Even Slater and Bowan were poor fantasy players up until the last 2 years (coinciding with the DT points overhaul). Matai, a mainstay of the NZ side team, is a horrible fantasy centre, but that doesn't stop him being picked consistently for NZ. In fact, Matai started the year around $200,000 and dropped down to the minimum value of $101,000. Yet he still was regarded as one of the best centres in the game and was picked for NZ. Personally I find fantasy leagues to be a poor indicator of overall worth as they often don't reward the 1%-ers or parameters that don't come up with pure statistics. I also think Reed's poor statistics may have been exacerbated by our poor attacking and defensive structures, particularly in the middle third of the field. I would hazard a guess and say a lot of his missed/ineffective tackles were due to errors in the middle of the field, not entirely Reed's fault (speculation though). [/QUOTE]
