Only openly gay rugby league player is Ian Roberts.
If they all played like Ian Roberts, that would be a massive improvement.

My point - your sexual preference does not for a split second correlate to your ability on the field.

How does pansies = gay? I don't understand why you'd make this comment? A pansy in football is a useless flower. Not a footballer. Nothing to do with sexual preference whatsoever. Why are you so sensitive with this comment?

Good weekend so far other than the DCE injury. 600/11 with Surgess(c), JGraham, ET, Holland, Mitchell, Tedesco to come. Up to 23rd in the live rankings.

It has connotations with being gay I guess.

It wasn't my intention in terms of comparisons but I have no problem not using the phrase.

I have a gay family member whom I'm pretty sure wouldn't be offended by that one, but that being said I've heard a lot of stupid hurtful things said over time so anything that has negative connotations toward being gay I'd prefer to avoid.

Thats some BS right there.

Yep, eactly, TMM was NEVER given the ball on 5th tackle, because of that I wasn't even slightly tempted by Cleary.

Jeepers mate, that's pretty solid. How are you placed for the rest of the bye rounds?

I;m pretty happy with this round too.

486/8 with Graham, Tolman, ET, Surgess, Hastings, Holland, Mitchell, and Barba to come. (Just the 16 this week).

Players I traded out scoring better then the players I traded in for them. I'm good at this Fantasy stuff.

My sister is a lezzo. That's what I call her. She loves it. wtf though? Why the butt hurt?

Back on topic. I've only had 4 players so far and have dropped 2000 spots from 1400th

Is that the one who knows how to box?

18 trades left. Brought in James and Pauli P. this week. I think Pauli will come good soon. Lol.

No she was a goalie for NSW.

Had dropped 40 places until the storm match. Now 5 ahead at 64th

So she just wore a box.

Should have 13 decent players for both 15 and 18, and full team for 16/19, so we'll see how that compares. Only 11 trades left but pretty close to my final squad.

Catching up on the thread, was it Cake Tiger bringing Ted in this week? He will probably be 20-30k cheaper next week and is coming back early so I'm pretty worried about him personally.

Pugilistic past,
Lesbian Sister,
Penchant for wearing DTs (that's just a guess)

Let's not become a bunch of PC pansies.

416/8 lolohea repaying the faith big time today
