Barry Toohey replying to a question about BroJo chances playing this round : Good chance by sound of things

Hi everybody, it’s Stew here!

Has anyone ever pinched their flute suit and then peed in it like filling a water balloon?

Good to see you coming out swinging so I can finally call you on it, rather than the continual not so subtle jabs for weeks on end, both this season and last.

i.e. How did that Lolo to Madden trade work out for you Matt? Just asking "out of interest".

Some decisions will work out, some won't. I am happy to voice an opinion here. Anyone else can assess if they think my thoughts are on the mark or not. I am not making the trades  for anyone, just presenting ideas.

Some will work, some won't, great to have Captain Hindsight on the case in case any of them happen to not go as well as hoped!
In between the duds there may just be the odd gem that others find useful and wouldn't have otherwise been on their radar.

I want to thankyou for this badge, I will wear this with pride
I have been called many things but this one I am most flattered by

After many years of sharing my trades and ideas in advance via a forum public team tracker (before it was a thing) to avoid this very thing I am glad you called me out on this

It was always easier before this to come in weeks after a trade win and talk it up and ignore the fails
But to put them all down in advance and be accountable to yourself for it good or bad is another thing entirely
I felt going back to see why you made the trade at the time was a great experience, shit it was fun finding one years ago last night for fun
I never took any criticism personal as all it meant was people cared enough to look out for your team as they bothered to stop by and comment or ask how the trade turned out
I am sure it helped me avoid repeating the same mistakes (Except Mitch Aubusson haha)

I hope you finally have a succesful season and hope you will receive this award yourself in the near future
I would say something about irony but you are no alanis morisette

All the best with your team

Hi Stew, it's Chew!

That's a wild suggestion

Boozes’ musings kept me interested in this game at times I felt like packing it in.

Edit: oh haha this is Booze

Any of you guys who finished top 1k last round not get your Doordash voucher yet? I haven't got mine, been checking my spam folder. I also checked that my email is verified with NRL.com.

As I said, I am a little apprehensive about Clocky on the bench.  I wonder what his initial purpose was for, if any.

Think its just cover for outside back injuries, nothing more.

Its a wasted bench spot to put another forward there who might get 10 mins.

Booze,

I'm not sure why you are responding to this?

Everyone knows the amount of sound advice offered by yourself over the years, you are in my book the original POD champ with the max hooker strat.

The one thing I admire most is the ability to accept the good with the bad and not bury the head in the sand when it all goes tits up or make wild excuses as to why it hasn't worked out! Most can see it, some unfortunately can't

Just do you mate, you are a gun and there's a good reason for it

Cheers mate.

Did you finish top 1k Beth? After your unlucky R1 streak with Cheese?

Ooh got him in Draft, keen to finally have him on board!
Hope everyone has been well. Always found it interesting when people mentioned life got in the way and disappeared off here for a few weeks/months, can finally relate now hitting the big 30 and being away from Sydney for a few weeks!

Season has been shyte so far, making sure I have 17 playing players every week but feeling a bit lost re trades. Is anyone on here in the top 100 and a realistic shot to win it all?

Have been following NRL stats/news for punting on try scorers and watching some highlights so luckily not completely out of the loop. Will read the last few pages to get an idea of who the popular trading in/out options are. But if anyone has time to do a quick summary, it'd be much appreciated!

I could be wrong but I have heard anecdotal stories that coaches with Undefeated Origin Superstar Edrick Lee are being overlooked for this voucher.

Hey champs, just updated my tracker if anyone wants to peruse and offer a suggestion to get the brain going.

We've got four inside the top 100 and 23 inside the top 1000.

Wow, playing Max King for sure this week. Could get 50 minutes for a monster!
Just hoping they dont put TPJ into MID, would ruin my weekend.

You're playing Max King because he's starting

I'm playing Max King because I only have 3 MIDs and he's one of them

We are not the same

Just because I know everyone's watching on with baited breath, I meant it looked like I was an alt and had Khany and Rev on the go. Not that Khany was an alt.

As you were.
