Is that because of injuries, or are the new top 30 squad restrictions preventing clubs from giving debuts to juniors that would otherwise get a run?

Fortunately for people like SI there was no internet in those olden days, so there is no online record of what he was like.

I'm sure there's some historical society with the telegrams in their archives.

No trades for me this week but should I take Martin's 46 or throw Cleary in?

Banking the 46 is the safe option, starting Cleary is an unknown.


What do you think Cleary's lowest score is likely to be? His highest? Is his lowest possible score worth the risk for his highest?
He has only scored 60+ twice this season and hasn't scored well since he's been playing origin.
I think he's more likely to score a 30 than a 60 but he is capable of getting that 60.

Play it safe with the 46 or risk it for a bigger score if you think the risk is worth it.

Take Martin, Cleary is cooked until Maloney leaves.

Morning all!

None of that talk from me today, bored of it!

Is Ponga due back next week?

Based on Clearys last couple of games, take the 46.

Watching the new tomb raider movie.

Verdict: She's hot but the movie is barely passable. Will watch til kick-off.

Still blows my mind sometimes that some Welsh git is waking up on the other side of the world while I'm two drinks deep and waiting on uber eats Indian.

And I still always manage to better your fantasy scores even playing with such a huge disadvantage such as kick off times at 5am etc

Ponga was on the footy show last night and said he was quietly confident he would be.............

This is blossoming into such a sweet friendship 

In saying that, I did a lot better in fantasy living in NZ when games were on at 10pm after several drinks
