I enjoy anguish. Don’t let these kents discourage you from moaning

Don't change anything about you brother. Keep on doing what you do because I enjoy all your posts. Complain all you want because you never annoy me but if people get pissed off it's their problem not yours.

I saw that. What an absolute lunatic!
5 of the current top 6 have different captains this week which makes for an interesting week.

Possible he traded Kikau -> Fifita as capt? Or would that show up differently pre-Sharks game?

First post Owlface so welcome to the forum my brother.

Yeah, I think you must be right. That makes much more sense, but is also kinda disappointing.

Currently 344/8. It's below par so I need the rest of my players to pick it up. I haven't made any trades yet but I might do Cogger to R. Martin & keep RFM.

Nice 10 point upgrades for Su'a & Isaako. That last minute try by Isaako was one of the best of the season imo.

Isaako on 5 at h/t & ends up on 59 at f/t. I wonder if the 54 point second half is up there as one the the highest 2nd half points performances of the season.

Death, taxes, emoitonal roller coaster bronco fans. (Also neg reps when dissing broncos) these are just the certainties in life we live with.

Plus, what a yawn fest this place would be if there wasn’t passion.

Fuck the broncos.

I believe it's spelt Bonzos. Other acceptable spelling includes Boncos, Bwoncies, Donkeys and Bozos.

Three weeks ago when Dugan went down I really didn't like any of the other centre options, so I decided I would just run my backup plodder Isaako until the bye rounds, fully prepared for my team to take a bit of a hit. He has since averaged 41, beaten by only a handful of other CTR options. This is a shoutout to Isaako and any other small-time heroes who exceed humble expectations so that their 30s often feel like 100s.

Even after scoring his first try he was only mid 20s.
Got a lot of points with the last try + goal.

Also, Lawton got 62 2nd half points a couple of weeks ago.

Taupau's recent big scores have involved one big half and one relatively quiet. Don't know the exact breakdown though

It was a great individual try.

Gee my wife has booked the tv tonight for that stupid royal wedding. The Sex Pistols summed it up perfectly "God save the Queen & her fascist regime"

Thanks mate, pleasure to be here. Only really played H2H so been using this year to figure out the game better and have a proper go next time round. Between MTB's site, Milchcow's spreadsheets and the advice here it's a bloody great place to get to grips with things.

In the meantime been a good way to build stupid amounts of cash and hopefully wipe the floor with my playoff rivals in a couple of months. Because what could possibly go wrong between now and then

Biggest regret's scoffing at Maloney and every sucker thinking he'd actually do something useful. And trading in Rochow instead.

Don’t agree with that. Guy like him is going to make his own luck (has to posted out on that wing!) and have around 3 or 4 of those matches a season, 2 tries and a handful of goals. That’s already his second. Did it against the warriors too. 33 avg and Logical EMG WFB/CTR choice this year given just how bad the centre position is

No no, I meant picking the right players in fantasy comes down to luck. Even though I can't get his points this week I'm happy to still have him there. I haven't even thought about trading him and hopefully he keeps rolling and maybe does a Moga and half a big second half of the season.

His try was great and I rate him as a player, that's why I haven't thought about trading him.

First off, Owl's are legit.

Second of all, welcome.

Don't stop mate, I love it and am guilty of it myself during games.
