Did you captain him also this week?

My punt finally paid off

No mate I captained Turbo but Teddy is a big point of difference for me as Jax doesn’t have him!

So far I’m 4/221, Haas 69, Macca 34, Teddy 78, Manu 40.

Murray, Fifita, Douiehi, Papali’i, Moses, DCE, C Turbo, Schuster, Haumole to come tomorrow so a big day to come on Super Saturday!

That’s great for you I’m glad captaining him paid off mate. Hopefully some big scores tomorrow!

Well done @Wolfking you’re very close to 8/550 C after adding Verrills and Hynes, you’re in for a massive week!

Him and Ben Cummins have had an agenda against the Roosters for years.

Bring back Shayne Hayne.

Definitely think Egan is going to be the better Butcher long term out of the two.

Another point is that the Roosters don't win that game without Keighran. He's not much of a player but there's nobody else in that team who scores 4/4 with the goalkicks there. They'll have to find a place for him somehow post-season, because Walker/Ted/SST are terrible with the tee.

Easily the best goal kicker at the club and does well enough at centre that you can carry him

Latrell, ARey, Fifita, Schuster, Moses today
Walsh, Watson, Brailey, Ponga tomorrow

A 50 average will be nice

Was doing some 2022 scouting and came across a surprising CTR/WFB dual.

In 2020 Crichton burst onto the scene and averaged 36.1 with 17 tries

In 2021 Crichton has had a bit of a down year with only 7 tries scored in one of the better attacking teams in the comp. This has of course tanked his season average to ...... 36.4

Oh I missed it during the game - 6pm is not a good time for my full attention.

It was 12-6 then I heard from the other room Edwards try, Burton try. So game over.

But that is so obviously a shoulder charge, it actually blows my mind they didn’t call that back for a penalty. On video, if not live.

Cleary owner but based on the last 5-10 years it’s worth a ban too

I mean if Rava shoulder charges someone in the chest it’s usually 4 weeks off…

410/7 captain turbo to come.

Hynes and Burton have proved themselves useful again. Love to see it

Looking forward to a weekend of footy whilst enjoying day 2 of lock down. Apologise in advance for any gin fuelled opinions later on

I'm a cleary owner and it's a obvious shoulder charge, a poor look to have rules for some and rules others.

I work in the APS, so big work office is in Canberra. I lol’d hard when the lockdown was announced and SES gave the ok to leave work early. So everyone could race to the shops. Which will still be open. As a lockdown vet of many weeks, it was adorable to see

Yeah, the public service gives you many opportunities to shake ya head and think, wtf is wrong with you people.

I knew I had beer, wine and enough food to last me 12hrs to go to the shops the next day like a normal person.

Also, people asking about whs guidelines for setting up a work station at home. I mean come on

Obviously I’m also public service and guilty of many of those things  but Canberra is sometimes next level, at least in my agency. They are extremely reluctant to have any meetings between 12-2 due to lunch. It warrants a full blown apology in the invite.

Anyway, footy, still a bit aggro about Cleary shoulder charge. There has to be a way to suspend Ravalawa for this

Ah, you've jinxed me now!:

Thanks mate, all downhill from here and my score will look shithouse at 9:30pm tonight after Turbo plays so I'm not getting my hopes up.

Looking back at that Cleary shoulder charge, it's a blatant shoulder charge. Us owners will be getting out of jail here if he escapes a ban.

Fucking hell though he's a gun footballer. Has the potential to be an all time great of the game. Still convinced he's taking something though, maybe for the shoulder but last night he looked like an X-Man version of himself or something.

I just moved to a new dept, chalk and cheese for the amount of carry on. I mean, Given the conditions and the pay, it’s hard to complain.

I’d love to Cleary to miss at least a week, but he won’t.

It’s just Warneys mums tablets mate, nothing to see here

Captained Haas over Cleary. I decided not to take a risk and see Cleary get through a game first. Feel I got lucky with Haas finally scoring a try and a line break in the first half. Will defo be switching to Cleary next week.

Not public service, but since everyone started working from home full time, everyone has "meeting free time" blocking their calendar 12-1 every day.
