More concerned at this point that people don't actually watch the games (or don't understand what they're watching).

Dragons are bad, 5-15 is clearly bad, but they try hard and only 6 defeats are 13+.

Not like we're getting blown away. There's no fantasy attacking bonanza every week. Ask the Garrick and DCE captainers two weeks ago.

Not like Tigers get blown away most weeks either. Bulldogs feel like the sketchiest team if you want to believe in matchups. They've just managed to win more close ones.

Or Roosters have the same number of 13+ defeats as Dragons. So Captain Milford.

Kiraz is in a horrible Dogs team, up against a rampaging Knights team, and Edwards is up against the team he scored 98 against last time (and they're even worse now). Not to mention Manly concede as many tries down their left as on the rest of the field combined.

Climbed a few ranks but lost my preliminary final in L8 and my Eliminator match up in close games.

Is it tragic that I'm 99% sure I know what wrestling match that is?

I dunno, did you also watch SummerSlam over the weekend and mark out when LA Knight won the battle royal?

Nah, ageing myself but more of a up-to-early-2000s  guy. Coliseum home videos (and any other tapes I could find)  and magazines, then the very early days of Pay TV and Internet with WWF v WCW at its peak

Do occasionally watch some AEW on their YouTubes. WWE has too many cuts for this old man.

The match btw is Bret Hart v Bob Backlind I quit match, WrestleMania XI. You can tell it’s that specific match because of the mic and the refs unusual shoes (because it was Roddy Piper)
