    Just looked at you trajectory over the last few months, very similar to mine.  Really enjoying dragging it back from the brink, although seems to be what I have to do every year.




    Been at other end this season but just plugging away and enjoying it mate!

    Less stress and just trying to get back to being relevant Very Happy

    What frustrates me is the attitude changes when doing good/bad mate, just play the game and be you

    I respect certain things about Ricky but dislike his unprofessional approach to certain things

    Crying in press conference, the weak gutted dog comment, letting a player have a week off to attend a wedding? Very strange

    However his approach is working for his team and his club so fair play

    Won’t second guess him too much

    I can honestly never work out whether I like Ricky or not. He does seem to care about his players more than the average coach, sometimes to his own detriment. Hell of a player though, and drawing his 1994 “The Master” football card from a pack is a core memory of my childhood.

    553/9c and have not made any ranks- looks like everyone else prepared for the bye rounds too. The 13 players thing makes it harder to make up ground than previous years.

    Definitely agree with this, was cool last year having way more players

    Completely see why they did it but having 15/16 players or more would be decent

    Think the proliferation of podcasts banging on about it from Round 6 has made a difference too. Many more people seem to be better prepared for R13. Whether they're also prepared for the other byes without making a shedload of trades they no longer have remains to be seen.

    Either that or Lord Of The Byes has taken off.

    Team, I have a dilemma this morning.....

    I'm sitting in 7th for May, is it worth trading in Ponga to chase that KFC?

    Ponga would need to score 53 or more and Garrick less than 31 for this to work. There are two in front of me with Ponga so 3rd would be the highest I could get. Player being traded would be Alamoti.

    TU - Short term move, save your trade Mark.
    TD - Dicks out for the lads, YOLO.

    How many Eels, Knights, Eagles you have? As long as you'll be ok next week it's probably worth a punt, not like you're trading in some random, Ponga could pay off longer term. Depends how much you value a $250 nrl shop voucher.

    Alamoti to Ponga is probably a good trade anyway, if it doesn't ruin your R14?

    Only 2 Eels, I've got 18 next week if I make this trade, unfortunately, big Tommy Talau is one of them.

    How much do I value a $250 voucher? Daddy needs a new Warriors top

    Do you think you are a chance at overall honours?

    If not, may as well give yourself the best chance of winning an actual prize

    In every recent post, you sound like a whiny, poor losing, little bitch.

    Seems that the higher up the ladder you get in a fantasy game with little attachment to reality, the more entitled you think you are.

    Booze is a legend. You’re not.

    Now you can get a feel for why some here don’t ike me.

    I call a spade a spade.

    And my pool is fucking enormous.

    Grow up.
