ah sorry, was looking at the celebrity league's "open ladder" (whatever that is?) rather than "overall points ladder".  we're slightly ahead of CK:

Scouts - 1,991
Community Team - 3,776
CK - 3,921

Is the default ladder a ranking in a H2H league rather than overall points? I think that was the case last year in the league Ranta set up.

Wow, have they ever been near the top? I remember CK seemingly always hanging around 2000-3000. Must be getting to him the poor bloke.

Oh my word.
I do hope this is a safe place.
I need a cheap centre. And there is one that is the most perfect handcuff to my holding Crichton.
The answer is Aubusson. Aubusson has always been my destiny.
For the second time this season. Aubusson.
May the fantasy gods have mercy on my soul.
I think I need a codeword.

Yeah I'm like Robelgordo last week with the clown college. All I can see is Maubs

I know the Daly M's are like the worst MVP system in the world but Aaron Woods gets three over Shaun Johnson? Blayke Brailey gets points? What is going on?!

From yesterdays match ? Wow, I was there plus I watch Woods every week becoz its entertaining how little impact he has for such a big guy. No way.

Must've been a former forward doing the votes.

Amazing.

Gee he is very cheap. If you have Crichton, it's a tempting handcuff. 21 people squads make it tight though.

Might be time for Wiliame to finally meet his demise from my squad. Gotta think Niu worth holding over him.. Niu might actually come back into the side.. Wiliame probably wont?

A few new cows on the paddock this week: Starling, Asi, Siro 2.0

It's nice having options

Thinking the same. Wiliame to Maubs gives me 2RF coverage whilst Angus is out and then emergency centre cover for the rest of the year hopefully. I'll probably get to play him at centre a couple of times too given how frequently Cordner gets a rest.

Lafai back to Dogs immediately is now official

Thirded.

Getting rid of Wiliame that is, not necessarily of the Aubbs hype train.

Only using him as CTR loop not WFB loop, Niu does the same with the bonus he might get another run without a bunch of injuries to others.

Makes me a little hesistant on Hunt. Things could change if they lose a couple of games again..

“All Cam wants to do is win so Cam is comfortable playing a role for the team at No.13. It is the same with Benny,” McGregor said. “He wants to play No.7 but he is playing No.9 for the team.

“That’s what the team needs right now. We are missing some experienced players in the middle third of the field that aren’t with us at the moment.

"They are doing a very good job as a combination there and it is going to stay there because at the moment Jack is not available and we let James go so we need minutes people and they are both minutes people with experience.

Anyone who scores 100 fantasy points in a round gets their picture at the top of the page.

Liverpool Bulldog generally makes them, but the current one is by Holy Moly (who I sort of guilt tripped into making one, but he did a bang up job)

Haha I made this one too. Hope I didn’t scare of Holy Moly

What puts you off based on those comments?

Is JdB any chance of coming back this season - legit haven't heard? Otherwise they aren't missing anyone that will come back into the middle.
