Love my 2pm Sunday arvo games, Sharks v Warriors should be a cracker

No players in that game. Will be good to watch

Just Johnson for me, will be interesting to see how he goes against his old club

Let’s hope it’s not like Nikorimas game against the Broncos.

Yeah we're not doing as well as last year.

Yeah we seem to have some good representation in the top 500. There's quite a few rounds to go still and I'm sure MTB, VK, and MS will make their way up the rankings. Is Zora still around?

785/13c got Koro Yeo Robson and Crichton to go so probably high 900s seem to about par this week

Very happy with my Saturday players, Ponga 80, Murray 61, Pearce 53 could’ve been 60 except for all his de-merits and Taupau with 72.

I am 13/795 which I think is a little bit above par.

I have Cleary, Yeo, Api and S. Crichton to come.

Would be nice to hit 1000 but I think that’ll depend on how Crichton goes.

@wolfking Pearce to Hunt is also tempting me next week.

Murray may be moved to left second row next week as well where he won’t score as well, that’s where he played the last 20mins and it’s no coincidence Souths left edge looked heaps better when dud Lowe went off.

Starling looks like one I want to bring in as well as he’s gonna be a good 18th man for me.

I do not have halves cover actually so Murray if moved to an edge or Yeo if he goes around 50 or less to Hunt could be the play.

Lowe should be dropped.

Well done to the Knights as well played more consistently over the 80mins. Souths left it to late, geez three quarters of my voice is gone today as well!

We aren't, but the push is on over the last few weeks. Crazy how many are now in the top few hundred as opposed to a month ago.

I'll probably upgrade Fogarty to BHunt this week. I can't argue with Ben Hunt's fantasy output these last 2 weeks.

Yeah, that's above par, personally got it at around 950. I will be under at a low 900. There will be a couple of monster scores as a few teams will have that magic combination of Lucy/Haas/Cook/Ponga/DCE etc. There will also be some greater than normal disasters this week.

Will be doing the same. 200k changeover is annoying but didn't do it this week as wanted to see if BHunt kept kicking and got the 80.

752/13(C). Feeling below par again this week by a little but decent enough considering the likes of Niu, Young, Friend and Field scoring meh. I have J. Taumalolo, A. Korisua, N. Cleary and I. Yeo left to come.

No idea how I’ll get Bunt in now but will do my best

Up to 9th rank but only 3 today being Koro, Harris and Chricton. Would love an 80 from Tohu. Best of luck all, represent !

And today marks one year anniversary since joining on here, hopefully many more to come

Jesus Christ mate, I am a huge fan of yours, but this might be the softest dismissal ever.

Rabbits is right, Rabbitohs fans hate Seibold and wish him ill will. I throw my support behind his feelings toward the turncoat 100%. This game is built on petty grudges like these. I would expect every Tigers fan to be just as sour at Cleary for getting off the bus. The players sure as shit are, so where would the fans be if we didn’t support their feelings?

But leaving the forum because a Rabbitohs fan is angry at Seibold. Don’t pretend for a second that this is about forum politics and not your rank.

See you next year, maybe we can fall in love again x

Mate, that's an incredibly shit take if you think I'm leaving over rank. If cared as much as others do here about rank and bailed when it got tough i would have never made it over from Sportal. I have never been a top player and only have played for fun. Hence why every year i volunteer amongst the mods to run the lower leagues because shit like rank and that doesn't bother me. Last year I made it to L4 my highest league ever and i gave up my spot for Stuffness because he arrived late and I thought it was fair he had it.

The fun for the game is wearing out for me i haven't liked it since they reduced the squads but kept the trades the same and inflating prices making it impossible for new people to know what the fuck to do and stay around therefor not growing the game.
Like the game this forum is not fun anymore. I've tried but i am getting sick of seeing good posters leave and sick of reading the same thing every week every game.

"Oh good that player got injured thats really good for my team im glad his livelihood is possibly destroyed because my player now got 3 extra points"
"What is the coach thinking he averages 55mins but the coach only gave him 53 mins this is fucked"
"My player was injured IM SO UNLUCKY"
"Wheres his TS"
"Wheres his TA"
and the pages upon pages of tackle break discussion i don't think I've ever seen so much whinging for something we cant control

Frankly reading the same thing for like the 5th week in a row about Siebold was the final straw. I was going to quit after we came back from the break but i didn't want to let anyone in the leagues but there's no point now.

Oh and not that it matters but ironically i just hit my highest rank ever of 575.. So yeah I'm sure I'm not leaving because of "my rank"
