Concerning DPs
Well, for a long time i was wandering in the dark.. not willing to have anything to do with fouling and stuff like that.
Some time ago, i started picking DP skills on doubles on my Goblins, and they also got into some other teams, especially for tournaments.. And i gotta say they proved their worth.
I'm still not a fan of excessive fouling (which can be seen by my stats), but i realised, that having a DP in your team really can make the rest more safe from opponents DPs. Especially when he GTR.
Last week i had a day, where i played quite some matches.. and half of the games, my opponents got GTR on turn 1. Of course i took some heavy blows, but the fact that my DP could also foul evry turn without the 50% chance of being sent off, can for less bashy teams be reason enough, to stay away from fouling evry turn... i guess some teams of mine would be retired if they wouldn't have had a DP in it.^^
Well, just my random 2c concering DPs
Cheers and have a good time

Fouling makes me feel like a big man

Dp's are indeed a good defensive option. It also makes a lot of opponents more careful with how they use their best players, which might give them a tactical disadvantage.

Your comments on DP's a plain stupi....hang on. I actually agree! The good old DP deterrant. Of course there are players like me around that enjoy more DP action than less!
I only foul because that 'sploosh' sound is so wonderfull!

Dirty players also help you reach that 2+ CAS mark for FF rolls. Keep up the booting and watch your team get popular!
