Full pay for the travel year ? That's scintillating.

Struggled mentally the last few weeks but getting back up now. Have enough saved to pay the mortgage and live without concerns for 12 months. Forklift driver since I was 18.

No fossils, but the ranger thing is pretty close. Only they're government so they get paid a lot more to work a lot less than me.
I'm in consulting, work about 50/50 office/field doing what I suppose can be summarised as compliance monitoring. Usually in remote places doing very physical work over really long days.
The field half of the job would actually be really great if I actually got paid for all the work I do, as its a lot of 4wding and hiking to beautiful places that other people go to for fun. Though it's better at some times of year than others. Today I spent 11 hours working outside where the warmest temperature at saw was 4 degrees.

Ask if u can do 2 days on, 5 days off at triple time

Lol, some gr8 insight in this discussion, apologies to anyone annoyed at the many posts away from fantasy stuff.

Just locked in two weeks off in October, off to Tassie. It's paid leave of course, if I can say that.......

I remember reading in a Rugby League magazine over a decade ago how he is the next big thing coming through at the Broncos.

What a let down.

Technically not wrong

8 Origins plus a few tests is a hell of a career. Probably should have been more but its still a hell of an achievement.

Might be best to ask after rep round bud, who knows what we could be looking at come TLT next week.

I'm picking carnage or nothing, no in between.

You'll be ok bro because you're a good man who will succeed. You're kicking butt in fantasy too.

Cheers bro.

Josh Aloiai has two offers from other clubs plus one from tigers which is a two year deal. He'll decide after rep weekend.

Of the media talk on players being told to leave wt.. the only players that have actually been told are - Elijah Taylor, Russel Packer and Chris McQueen.

Along with advanced talks with capewell and Welch.. wt have started internal discussions about Jesse Arthars and Steven Marsters for the 2020 season.

Top stuff pal.

Would be a great idea for every team to have a spokesperson of sorts in here.

You can put Fanatics Official 'Team' Spokesperson in your profile.

Just on the job chats; I am in a spot of bother where I am miserable at my job to the point I spend more time on here than actually working. Don't get me wrong my workplace is amazing - more like family rather than colleagues and working in the body corporate area - a business where our clients are often giving us box tix to the footy and v8's and a lot of Christmas Hampers (with alcohol) at the end of the year. Bosses (who are my best mates parents) gave me a casual job when I was 18/19 and between jobs to work for 3 weeks while I look for a new one... 4 years later and I am still here. Just over all the mundane and boring work, grumpy old people, shit pay. Also kind of a killer that out of the 4 weeks holiday leave we are entitled to a year, 2 of those weeks are taken off us as we are closed over the christmas and new year period and this is taken out of our holiday leave. I am in the boat where I want to do something active, out and about, something that gives me pleasure in doing and I am actually motivated to climb my way up the ladder into a leading role one day... Is a million dollars a year too much to ask for?

It's looking smooth sailing for you. Look at moving Havili on for another R16 player and get cash prepared to upgrade Xerri to a big gun post R16. You've got a better team than me and I'm in the mid 500's range rankings wise so I'm sure you'll be fine.

Coal Train

I'm officially declaring this the slowest day of the season. Anyone care to challenge?
