If Arrow shits the bed then I'll be flicking him for Crichton. Macca is on notice as well.

Yes, I'll be running out of trades very quickly if I keep this up.

Similar thoughts re Arrow or to a decent half.

Done!! I need to shave a few thousand ranking spots off where Im currently at though, so let me know if you can make that happen

Bit of a shame but Teddy was a buy this week. Anytime after now you're paying almost the same as the start of the season but you miss an 80 and a 60 score, he's out for round 12 and he'll be in Origin. If Ponga goes well this week he'll be the answer to a lot of prayers for some. It'll be interesting how the rest of the games go but Crichton will still be a buy next week. Interested to see how the Carty goes

Crichton -14 in negatives in wet conditions, could have easily scored in the 70's or 80's in better conditions. Is now the time to bring him in for people looking to upgrade someone like lane?

Anyway she says nothing turns around, picks up what she dropped & then just continues on her merry way head buried in phone. What pissed me off was no thank you or no acknowledgement or even looking at my direction. It seems she had no appreciation at all. One day she will cross the road, head buried in her phone & she'll get run over.

I feel ya mate...Some people are just fuck-witts.

I've got a similar story... I had just parked my car on a hill in the wet in Dunedin in a student area and was walking to work when I noticed a woman about to try and parallel park into a space that had been taken up in part by a couple rubbish bags, one of which had split open. So I thought I'd do a good deed and dragged the main bag out of the way and onto the pavement, and then gave the broken one a bit of a kick to move that a bit too. Didnt move it all the way off the road cause I didnt wanna pick up some students rubbish, but enough for her to park.

This woman gets out of her car, sarcastically says 'thanks very much' and proceeds by giving me shit for not moving the second bag completely. Here I was, going out of my way to pick up someone else's crap in the rain to help this lady, only to get an earful. I somewhat regret my response but its fair to say she copped it back 10 fold. Stupid woman, Im still pissed writing this almost a year later.

This generation has legit been brought up on consuming content. They don't know any better and parents now have to realise how creating patterns of binge content consumption will stick if it's introduced so young. It's not just fear-mongering, but giving screens to children and adolescents is not good for their development. Their content should be limited until they're in their mid-to-late teens

I got Bateman for Lane this week but I'll be trading Macca to Crichton this week (touch wood nothing insane happens). I'll be down to one playable hooker but should be okay for the interim. Crichton was always going to come good once he got his starting gig.

I love letting people know their blinkers don’t work. Immediately after they didn’t use their blinker on a roundabout.

It’s the little things that get me through the day

Wow. What a b**** lol and people wonder why we don't get along. Gratitude and respect are highly undervalued. Dw that got my blood raised a little too

Greg Inglis is OUT of Saturday's clash with Manly, just confirmed by Wayne Bennett. Will be replaced by Jacob Gagan. Adam Reynolds and Cody Walker both fit to play. Story on @AAPNewswire #NRL

Can Inglis play for qld too? Absolute passenger this year

Glad I was able to get Teddy in this week (sold Burns to Xerri, Dedwards to Teddy), that 60 is really handy. Now all I need is Captain Munster to beat that against the Doggos on Sunday

Loving that display pic @WT2k

Thank god I missed the Bronco party this morning. Fuck we are shit.

Pick 4 to play lane, Lawrie, Garner, rein or Mahoney?

Without the try he scores in the 40s.

Friz a chance of returning and potentially cutting into Lawrie's scores. I think Tigers are going to be fired up to stick it to Ivan so I'd definitely be playing Garner. Lane I feel is going to be boom or bust against the Sharks. A 60 with plenty of offloads or a 25 with next to nothing. Mahoney and Rein should do their job just fine.
