Why does Wookiee end with a double 'e'? What is the point other than making people always spell your species name wrong.

And don't get me started on triple letters in planet names.

For you MTB? Mate I've got... uh a while. Why don't you start with your league team, what's happening there mate.  How does that make you feel? Should i get out the rorschach's?

Mate, nobody wants to hear about the Broncos again for the rest of the year. I've well and truly come to terms with the fact that we are shithouse.

Let's talk about the Raiders.

KFC just gave me some more trades. Didn't you get any?

One big piece of news is that MTB doesn't support the Broncos anymore. he moved to Titans because they are much better run as a club

Sure, Ricky has got them flying perfectly under the radar to swoop in and claim 4th place as Eels somehow tumble out of it, starting our miraculous run through to winning the big one, wouldn't you say?

Sadly not, how many nuggets do i need to buy? On a related note, I hate the KFC advertising, mostly because there isn't one any where near me and I've had a craving for a fat bucket for a while now, so thanks for the reminder

Its a bit like the Macca's Monopoly game. Every piece of chicken you get gives you a scratch ticket with a chance to win something.

Most of the time its something useless like a free Sonny Bill Williams, but sometimes you hit the good stuff like a phantom tackle bust added for your player, and if you are really lucky you get 2 free trades

There is no reason to feel bad my friend, the Titans are going places and I'm all aboard behind captain Fogarty!*


*in all seriousness i am still a Broncos tragic

Yeah, was hoping for a Starling but scratched off a Randall instead

No trades =

If Teddy was rested along with Ponga I’m in trouble.

You and literally everyone else playing mate.

Can't be many teams with a WFB5 that allows them to still play 2 CTRs as well. And if you have enough trades, going sideways for WFB cover for one week is still gross.

You see straight through me! Though trades never stopped me in the first place.

As it seems a bit of a slow fantasy day, just curious if anyone has put any thought into 2021 and players going around this year that you think may interest you next year?

Literally
Which basically means that if everyone is pretty much in the same boat, you're probably not really in any trouble at all...

No not really, this whole year my strategy has been go week by week.

Besides last year, I had Jack Williams pencilled in as the first player I'd trade in this year. That worked out well didn't it.

Yeah, a few thoughts as follows:
- anyone with lowish ownership that will inevitably disappoint me and prove to be a negative POD
- The widow
- 18 Centers
