Roger Fabri has rubbished this whole thing as gimmicky. I agree.
Wonder if he would if it was someone he trained at the top?

It’s an interesting stat but unless Ronnie starts blitzing past blokes regularly it’s obviously not translating into our attack

Hoping Ronnie comes into preseason at another level after a good tournament.
Individually not as good but hopefully Nicho learnt from DCE in Aus camp too

For sure it's a gimmick.

There would be a bunch of useful data that the teams and coaches would get out of it. The stuff the public sees though... I put this stuff in the same category as the All Stars game. Kids and casual fans love it, but the rusted-on fans know it doesn't mean much.

I dunno, it seems to mean a bit to the players.

In relation to the NRL it means nothing.

A 10/10 performance in the All Stars game with unlimited interchange will win a player some fans but it means zero to his NRL team if he plays like **** in round 1.

OK I think we're talking about two different things.
