We might do a PODCast thing.

I have two 55 inch tvs side by side with fantasy chromecasted to the second tv so I can watch the games and scores update with a click of a button.

For use that didn't get Fifita from the start, what factors should we be considering for timing trading him in? Atm I have to wreck my team to get him, probably miss out on either great cash making cows or cut price keepers. Is that worth it or do I just commit to the process?

"Do you feel the way the refs have controlled the game this year have impacted scores (compared to last years penalty'athon)?"
Second part to this is " If knowing they were going to speed the game up did/would you have considered this in building your team?"
Ie choosing players that would benefit from the change of ref style or general flow of the game
(Ie Plans to change next years interchange to 6 means perhaps hookers are more likely to play 80mins, make more tackles due to more gametime/less stoppage and not carrying bench hookers etc)

"Also the weather was very wet leading up to the start of the round so did this impact your thinking into how you built your team and where you spent your cash?
(For example not running some gun backs, Ie SCG pitch with tedesco's reluctance to use long studs effecting his game on short grass pitch or choosing players who would go well in the wet/arm wrestle)

When building your team this year did you plan a few steps ahead for trade scenarios if calculated gambles/hedged bets didn't pay off? Or did you give riskier players a week to prove themselves first seeing how their minutes/job role went, saving cash for them just in case you decided to bring in this week?"
(Ie sacrificing a few points to have a small nest egg for rd2 and going the 'safer' popular player to start.
This way you hedge your bets so worst case you could still bring in the 'riskier' player without ripping your team apart)

Second to last question: "Any plans on more meetups this year in Sydney?"

Last question "Do you know the chorus to Kenny Roger's song The Gambler"?

How many points will I beat you by this year? To the nearest 1000 will do mate

Realise full team makeup impacts this, but With us all going cow crazy, a quick fire round where one of you states they are worthy of a Start, Bench or NPR to the following would be handy;

Sticking with Centres and Forwards first up...

Congrats, mate. What a win for the Welsh. Bit rude of the kiwis to hog all the points though, my apologies for that.

When they put that red shirt of Wales on they are dragons to me lad!

Hey @random and @welshy

great stuff on the podcast lads , I thought it was great.

One of the things I liked most about it as a forum member was hearing (in voice) from other forum members. I wondered therefore, had you thought about trying to get a guest member on the panel each week? I think the forum would get a kick out of hearing from a new member each week. Might be tougher to organise, but at the same time it might also give you guys the chance to have a break every now and then too.

Just a thought. Keep up the good work!

Others could pre-record questions submitted by the general users, would be easier on logistics then trying to tee up record times and random/welshy would have answers ready to go on the actual recording.

I like the pre-recorded questions idea. I'll do some if it'll work

Baby steps I think. I mean, sky's the limit for sure but let's let them get into a routine first and next thing you know we'll end up with them live on Twitch lol guest hosts are a great idea though although user submitted questions are definitely a good start

SO far like No Worries, Milchy, Welshy, MF and I think Mulvy? Have shown interest.

Great idea Random. You and Welshy are off to a good start with your first two podcasts, so keep it going mate.
