    Wests listed him as a CTR on the player profile page for some reason.

    I'd already sharpened my pitchfork to go after FailHub too Sad

    Having CTR is probably a good thing anyway with Walsh already helping out at WFB. Dual would be nice though.

    The DPPs are a bit too random. A few lower owned players should’ve got it who didn’t.

    I think they need a better system.
    3 games in a row or 5 over the season in a 2nd position gets DPP. Something like that.

    As I’ve got older, Shawshank just feels so cliche. Top movie sure but wouldn’t bother me if I never saw it again. I remember when Seven and Copycat came out, they were quite ground breaking at the time. As too was Scream for that matter. Seven definitely the pick of them

    The movie I think deserves a place on that sort of list is The Usual Suspects

    Not sure what conversation was set off from my post, but these were just the first ones I thought of.
    The Usual Suspects is one of the best 90s films for sure.
    As an English teacher, I get to be a bit of a film buff for work.
    Added bonus is rubbishing the Star Wars sequels and telling Gen Z kiddies that they wouldn't know a great film if it smacked them in the face.

    I've see a heap of great films added here, Braveheart being one - how bout you fellas add your 3 fav films and we'll see how many great films are out there.

    I think the best thing about 1990s cinema was the rise of Tarantino and the flow on that allowed directors like Fincher to get their films made.
    The last decade has been fun - but dominated by Marvel type franchise films, super heroes etc. great for a big screen, lots of effects etc. but light on when it comes to getting you to think about the world.

    The last movie I saw that had me walking out mind-blown was Joker. Laugh

    I’m not much into movies but every now and then I am very surprised how good they can get. I love Shawshank! Less known 90’s you should see are Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (even the follow up with Brad Pitt) and Leon. I hate all this Marvel shit (just like all the Star Wars sequels) but one of the best movies I have ever seen was Deadpool (okay, Guardians of the Galaxy was pretty good too! I love the anti heroes!

    Can't believe Braveheart gets a mention over Robin Hood Prince of Thieves.

    Deadpool was so much fun.

    I have 4 CTRs

    Bird, Roberts, Momirovski, Hampton.

    As many as 1 of them might take the field this week

    My astute purchase of Hampton last week looks looks a bit of bad luck so which of these two Warriors would you trade him to? 1) Walsh 2) Curran or 3) Cini from the Tigers. No particular position is of importance.

    Roberts out for a month, Momirovski still suspended, and Hampton waiting on his Pec injury. That’s bad luck. I have 4 too, but two of mine will play this week! (I hope).

    Not quite 90s but watched Memento last night. A great Nolan film, if you like his other work you have probably watched it but if you haven’t I recommend highly.

    Is it just me or is the forum under performing on previous years.

    What do we put this down to, the same players being talked about so teams are fairly similar and we haven't really nailed it this year ?

    What are us long time seasoned fantasy players doing wrong this year Milch. Along with MTB and MS we are all getting smashed in the rankings. I don’t even feel like my team is bad but keep dropping ranks week after week sitting around 10k now. I’m the James Roberts of Fantasy Fantasy.

    Yes, the forum does seem to be underperforming currently. Hard to pinpoint exactly why, but an early preference for Ted over Latrell and Lam over Chad seems to have a lot to do with it. We'll be repaid when Ted averages 90 over the next four rounds...

    Is Leon the one about the hitman with a pet plant? Lock Stock follow up is called Snatch it's great, Vinnie Jones is a menace

    Surely a team targets Walker in defence eventually

    First time I'm thinking of benching (in reality, first-look looping) a guy who scored 88 last week, but that's less to do with iPap and more to do with the amount of try assists on offer against the Eels.
