    Here we go folks, the bye rounds came around quick! Must mean it is MSD / State Of Origin time

    State of Origin is back... teams will need to be finalised before lockout of Round 12.

    Best score from each player over the three bye rounds counts. One player at least from each team to be represented

    I'll post updated scores etc next week, but for now let the debate commence..

    Current Top Players by position/average for Vic/Tas ignoring form and injury

    Best 15's at the moment based purely on averages... Vic/Tas have a bit of work to do to catch up

    The Others:

    and Vic/Tas

    Remove Errol Gulden and rescind the Nuffers' allegiance to Victoria. That way a better defender can be included.

    The Nuffers hereby relocate to somewhere neutral. Like Switzerland, or the Principality of Hutt River.

    Hahahaha
    I was thinking he looked a little out of place in this match. Maybe a little ahead of his time. But do you have any other suitable options to put forward? Maybe a relocation to a neutral zone is a good idea, but we’ll happily welcome you back when all your youngens mature a bit :)

    Tim English - if fit, could go forward perhaps and the Victorians could include one of Gawn, Preuss or Darcy.

    Also a bit stunning that Jade Gresham and Dyl Moore are listed in the inclusions/possible inclusions. Stunning in a good way though, both have had great seasons ... especially the latter.

    The highest scorer you have I believe my friend, that will not slaughter a line...

    Is it just me that is amazed the Chooks only have one player seriously in contention... two if you count Tomahawk maybe...

    The rebuild is seriously on @ChiefRussell

    and only one for the current premier elects the Vultures... talk about a balanced team!

    There is an alternative view @Bandit - the 'hoppers have an abundance of the low variance, high scoring players as evidenced by the number of players they will have in our side. And that comes from the "manager" of a side in fourth place with just one representative in the (M)others side.

    I'm just happy that the Battlers might actually get a player selected based on merit rather than obligation this year. :)

    Vic/Tas Top players by position

    Any feedback? The response has been overwhelming to date from The Others….

    Vic/TAS coaches refer to the secret squirrel chat

    Not sure about my fellow coaches, but I'm happy with the Others best 15 as selected.

    You've done a sterling job @Bandit - very happy to have my guys (mostly) resting and leave the heavy lifting to @snoz . Guess the SC points from Fyfe's WAFL appearance were deemed to be invalid?

    OK, unless there are some last minute selection changes, we will run with the teams above
