Welshy wrote:I do really enjoy this forum, I love league and fantasy but I also love to shitpost and I’m one of the top ones for that no doubt! I love having the ego filled with positive reactions to the junior rugby posts I add on the regular! It’s something that Im extremely passionate about, and reading all the responses and well wishes does warm me.

I do love a debate regarding league and fantasy, either way and I will always call out something I don’t agree with.

Traded out Vailea, Crichton, Bullemor, Mahoney, Katoa, Amone, Clune, Paulo and Sexton for a grand total of 7k made

Crichton and Mahoney I think were just bad luck with the way they started the year but the rest I probably could have done better. Crichton was a toss up with Ipap and Mahoney was a late in after Cleary missed round 1. Would have been Grant if he wasn't suspended round 1

Vailea I wasn't really sold on but didn't trust the base price bench middle (Ming). Should have followed the pack and gone with the highly owned guy.

Bullemor there were signs preseason + a few injuries that he was going to get the starting edge for a while. Didn't work out but probably a pick I made again

Amone was starting half with good job security and priced below his lowest ever starting score in the position. This is one I'd probably pick again, Amone just got it going a little too late for me to benefit

Clune was a good pick and was going to slow burn to 150k before getting injured. Long term average as a starting half was enough to make some bank

Paulo didn't really trust his job security but thought Rabbitohs would start slightly better than they did and he might get a few early tries

Katoa was a toss up vs Martin vs Fermor and I think I ended up with the worst option.

Sexton passed the eye test, played first bye and had the ceiling to be a cut priced keeper. Started well first 2 weeks then fell off a cliff. Would probably make this move again


tl;dr lot of 50/50 decisions went wrong, timing wrong on a couple but a few were definitely on me

Assuming you captained Mahoney like me, I had the above and Berry so you could argue similar
My 'guns' were AFB,Taumalolo and Fifita too so it was a rough start as well
But to be fair my bad luck started a couple weeks back bleeding injuries to guns like crazy

Just saying it could be a bit simplistic to blame that as the main reason perhaps?
Had up to 30 trades and a few different captain options over the past 14 weeks to make inroads

Anyways just over halfway, plenty of time

Huh, I just went and checked the rules (copied above) because I have on occasion dropped the odd f-bomb and wanted to check the legality.

The bit where 'do not openly argue with moderation staff' is tricky, cause Welshy hasn't been right since March 1993, and even that was a 50-50 call. But I'll try. But it's hard. But I'll try.

Everyone gets called after multiple similar posts, especially a moan or a whine. It’s not always personal, sometimes shit crosses the line and usually dealt with. (Not by me as I don’t see much wrong with it)

Been on here for years. Never had problem until recently seems excessive. Joke about me not even reply post. Nah not cricket

A month is such an annoying timeframe, is he even worth bringing in if he gets replaced in Round 17?
