    Are people going to be able to field 17 this week?

    Limited trades (If any), Tigers bye (Galvin/Koro mainly?), plus Storm resting players...

    Also, I'm still salty that I don't own any of the "big" scoring players of last week, massively under par. Well I captained Yeo, but missed out on another 10+ players scoring 60+, crazy. And the players I did have scored crap.

    Something about bad squad management?

    Actually now I think about it, it must be because Talau didn't play. He would've scored me 50+

    Definitely more tumbleweeds blowing around then usual. Maybe everyone blew all of their trades a lot earlier than usual (let's blame injuries) so none of the tortured Lawrie/Host type end of season dilemmas.

    Maybe the 66% of traffic is generated by Matt and people reacting to Matt is true? Although even the 'Old Rabbits firing up the newer members with his outrageous I'm the best schtick' isn't generating much traffic.

    Only have Galvin and Fainu and no Storm players. Although have KPP but I think there's a chance he could still play. 2 trades left and it will be one of KPP/Shoes/Hands/McLean to Murray or maybe Turbo.

    I think the other problem is is there's no real guns left to trade in which limits discussion. Now Murray potentially out makes the choices even less. Would be Turbo or DCE. Or Nikora.

    Have a feeling round 27 won't be anywhere near as savage as last year.

    Got Fainu and Murray definitely out, then possibly Grant/Munster. So if no other restings probably just fielding 17. Have one trade left but hoping to save it for next week for my H2H final in another league

    1. Usually we have people competing near the top, which drives a bit of traffic/interest/bragging

    2. Matt's wife's six-month holiday with laptop (though this does happen every year)

    3. Not enough refereeing decisions against Souths to complain about

    4. Sauce fridge yes/no debate settled

    5. Forum not actually working

    Who's Hoff Diggity Dogs? Are we riding him home for the win this year or Winny? Or is Chewie a chance of a late charge?

    I'll let you know at 4:05 pm Tues

    Have 3 Tigers, 2 Storms, Ethan Strange is probably done... but also 2 trades left

    Might actually captain properly this week. Got "only" 1053 last week after accidentally leaving it on Fifita. That decision did cost me 40 ranks. Stuck at 162, going to be hard to make top 100 again at this rate.

    I'm going to carry the entire load of forum bragging to close out the season, it's going to be fairly insufferable.

    Winnie for sure, I actually know who he is

    But the Hoff looks strong.

    @robelgordo I'll have you know I'm in the League 51 Grand Final and also the Mod Grand Final, so if you're wanting insufferable I resemble that.

    It's the Mod God Vs the (M)Godfather. Random has beat me 3/3 this year and I'll be play with 16 against his 17. Up against it however I've also won every Mod League I've been in, going 4/4 this year would be the cherry on top of the icing of what is already a very delicious cake.

    Honeysett fucks.
