Pretty much instant for me in Excel mate

That was weird !
I still have Excel but have not paid for it for years so it is unlicensed and should not work. I tried it anyway.
After telling me the product was unlicensed and would I like to re-activate and I clicked no.
It then show me a bunch of pages, which I had to click next and then it opened the sheet !!

All good now WTF

Injury report - found info on Gallen, all others are unknown reasons for absence

Clinton Schifcofske - Grade 1 (1-3 weeks)
Shane Perry - Grade 2 (3-6 weeks)
Trent Waterhouse - Grade 1 (1-3 weeks)
Paul Gallen - Pre-season surgey on bulging disc - round 6 return
Benji Marshall - Grade 1 (1-3 weeks)
Antonio Kaufusi - Named to start (was just missing Storm lineup from original post)

Well then that settles it, Clint and luck out.
Don’t think I will get another high priced full back, maybe bank some cash for Hindmarsh if he continues to start or Tongue I guess.

There's a lot of formulas in the sheet.

One way to help is to make sure formula calculations are set to manual instead of automatic, so it doesn't recalculate everything all the time.
not sure how to do that in open office

Haha. I actually found this on YouTube this afternoon and was going to try it. After finding out that it was all the linked formulas slowing everything down, I came up with my own solution though. I was more or less primarily using the info on the Pred page so I copied all that info and pasted it as "values" into a new blank sheet. I could then browse and even customise without any more issues.

Just fyi.

Anyway, Shackleton. I was going to punt him but considering he can't lose money and I have 4 non playing emergencies not making any cash, I decided to punt one of those fellas and someone who will lose big money (I'm typing this on my phone and already forget the name of the guy I'm trading out). But anyway, Shackleton was a decent player, wasn't he? Is there a chance he still comes good, do we think?

I also only just noticed that Todd Carney played off the bench in round one and is named there again in round two. Anyone know what position/s he's playing and minutes... And why, lol.

I guess if he's only listed as HLF he's relieving one of the halves. What is this strange arrangement?

So both my centres in Hookey and Purtell both moved yo the wing, WTF?

No Benji, great.

Menzies centre, just great.

McGuire goes from starting hooker to centre, WTF? My team is filled with black widows.

Backline utility maybe?

Bloke tried to fight me in a nightclub because I “looked at his bird” (and because he had Bull and Rylesy standing behind him)

Hope he sprains his ankle

Gong boy?

I once saw Rylesly dust someone up at the Glassy. The security gave him a towel to wipe the blood from his knuckles.

I feel you were right to do the H2H instead of me. I’m pretty aroused by the spreadsheet right now.

I will look at this properly Weds. Schif is out though - too much cash to be on the pine. There’s probably heaps of other options for the 2nd trade - lot of duds to wade through.

Yep mate... and quite right. He’s a big unit Rylesy! As much as prick Gorrell riled me up. Was happy for that incident to stop at shirt holding

Oh shit, you're in the Philippines. Whereabouts you at? That Duterte chap's an interesting character.

Subic bay (a bit west of Manila), where the Americans had their naval base about 30 years ago.
Interesting is an understatement for him !
