I don't think Keefe is in the Giants best 22

I was talking him up early on as a good bench option (AF,DT) but i must say i haven't been overly impressed. I will wait for the round 1 teams to make a decision.

Has been training with the rucks so maybe they plan to use him as relief ruckman.

It's going to be Lobb/Patton/Himmelberg. Teams are hesitant to use a non forward as that pinch hitting ruck and would rather keep their defensive structures in place. He can't play forward and he doesn't fit in their defense unless they cop an injury to Tomlinson/Davis.

Did someone say loophole?

If it comes down to it I may well just use him as a floating donut.

This doesn't have much to do with D4, but I keep seeing the loophole stuff coming up. How does having a player you can loophole benefit your team in any way? Can anyone enlighten me on that?

It works by choosing 1 of 2 rookies to bench(or premos later on) on a line with a loophole player who will score 0.
Put the "E"'on benched player who has to play before the other rookie and loophole player. If he scores well enough u bench the other rookie as well and play your loophole player on field to score 0. Then u get the "E" players high score.
If not, just bench loophole player and play second rookie.
U can also use the loophole player on field to use as "captain" when your VC has scored more than u think your C will. U bench C player and put the "E" on him. Change the C to loophole player who will score 0. U then get double your VCs points plus benched "E" player points.
So it allows u to potentially score more points.

Thanks for the clarification. The VC thing makes complete sense. Just a couple of things with the rookies one. Let's say my benched rookie scores 90 or thereabouts so I put the loophole player on the field, which then means my second rookie gets benched. Do I put the E on him as well so I get extra points? Sorry if I sound dumb, but I've just never used this tactic before, and I could do with a few extra points each round.

No, if you only have 1 player not playing on a line and E on both bench players and they both play, you will only receive the lowest score from the 2 Emergencies

Ok, cheers.
