Just traded Manu in but then saw the replay of the time he feigned a calf injury so the defence stopped, then he took off and it led to a try. Was going to reverse the trade but if he can get me a 55+ I’ll forgive him.

Already have that other spud.

Manu will fit nicely into the bye planning, and getting him means I can drop Alamoti Twisted Evil

Live rank of 4th overall - still not good enough for 1st in the FOG haha.
Hoping to cling on a top 50 rank with only Bird and Manu playing today.
Had Host with his 5 in there but Hynes as captain was a good way to balance that out.

Used to spend hours reading the forum + playing around with trades back in the day but never had atop 1% finish from memory. It's bloody good fun being at the top end - can't wait for lockout!

85% of top 1000 have at least 4 left with most common being 5-6 left so probably drop a bit

Hoping my 8 left make it a fun afternoon

Grant, De Belin, Bird, Manu and Ford for me, ranked 317.

Expecting to be lapped by those also with Teddy and Johnson.

Yep, everyone was solid, no mistakes from the oath reader and both singers were top notch.

Any of the Mods here would be ideal mate, pretty trustworthy bunch imho.

I am sure we are all rooting for you to win it all.

Ok maybe not the ones who are also at the top

Oh and good luck in our H2H battle of the PODS today...could be close.

Yea good call mate, I wouldn’t have any issue trusting some of the top notch lads and mods on this forum.

All the best for the H2H, it’s gonna be tight! You’ll be looking for big games from your Dragons in this one.

May the best man win

It was top-class bugling. First pick in the bugle fantasy squad.

Hoping Tups, Momo, and Angus can have injury-free and solid returns for the Chooks. Happy to see the team at more-or-less full strength. Excited for the performance!
