Ween - Don't Get to Close to My Fantasy


Don't quiver little boy
Your loophole will help you out
It won't be long anyhow
A cash out's just around the corner
To get rid of the cow that did not perform for  you
Hoo-hoo-hoo
Ohhh!

Don't get too close to my fantasy
Don't be afraid start with Cameron Smith the must have.
Stare into Aubbussons eyes
And if he starts at centre
You'll get trade him out

Stay calm little dreamer
The try save updates in your dreams
The gentle slaps of Ponga
Score better than they seem
It's just around the corner
The bye round, no trades left unfortunately
Hee-hee-hee
Ohhh!

Don't get too close to my fantasy
Don't be afraid to captain Raymond Faitala Mariner
A head injury assessment  may surprise
And if the guy plays eighty
Your weekly rank will rise

Don't get too close to my fantasy
Don't be afraid to make a bet with your avator
Stare at Maloney score a try
And cos he missed less tackles
He's a keeper in your side

Ohhh!
Don't get too close to my fantasy
Just burn a trade to replace your injured starting hooker
Point your difference at M'bye
And if he repeats his banner
You'll get your bragging rights
Ohhh!
(Ha ha ha, woo, fuck it)

Is that all you need Surmon?  What's your team value and cash now mate?  I am just under 12.9 all up and I reckon I need close to a million just to upgrade my Halves to guns.

probably easier posting a picture, i've since had a bit more of a fiddle with it, realising it was way too HOK/2RF heavy, so I looked at Tapau (FRF,2RF) Korosau (HLF/HOK) and Mitchell (WFB/CTR) as 3 guys that can cover all 6 positions, tried to be a bit greedy in getting an 18th AND 19th man and came up with this:

With some luck Surmo, you may not need all that $$$ to upgrade either depending on if they drop in value. Given we have so few spots to generate this cash I believe it isn't as easy as it looks on paper
Though if we are using the whole '$150k' thing, still takes a few cows that actually perform to get there.

Anyways nice seeing it on a spreadsheet like that, have got me thinking how mine looks
Cheers Surmo

Well good to see how that works

yeh, you're absolutely right 'best laid plans...' and all that, especially in a game like this where injuries and bad form can reek havoc, i make up a spreadsheet like this every year and i can count on zero hands the amount of times i've ended up with the team i had planned.

He's nearly up to where we wanted him a couple of Rounds early

Well that's a bit of an eye opener.

Beat my actual team by 100 points

Don't know what to say really haha

Don't sweat it mate, this week I lost a H2H game against my Dad and his team of players he just likes. It was just that kind of week.

Of course he had Brooks. Ugh.

Upgraded to 903 first 900+ of the season but looking at top sides some teams are valued 300k plus more then mine that's counting my MITB not starting with havilli and Thompson leaves u with huge dissadvantage

Only two players lost cash this week. Teddy + Griffin.

Team value says 12.6 and I have 130k in the bank.

Would guess that to be on par

I'm only 12.5 mil including money itb

Will be interesting to see where others are at

I'm at 12.5 too with money in the bank, but my team is sucking hard points wise.

12.68m including bank. No idea if this good/bad/indifferent, although so far seems towards the higher end.

Surely Tolo will be one of the biggest pickups of the week at 781K!!

Pretty bloody cheap, although will he go back to his rubbish scoring when McLean returns?

Really hoping Capewell gets a starting spot for the next month.

Im brining Tolo in this week. Woot

Team value is 12.6

I don’t think he’ll get a month of starting but it would be awesome if he did for being so cheap
