    The Suns buy out Beal.

    And he reportedly is signing for the Clippers for like $11m over 2. Which means he goes from one of the worst contracts to one of the best.

    Bit of a stitch up for Papali'i. His only opportunity comes as a blindside/lock cover. Be interesting to see if the French stack their bench with experienced players again.

    Or we go old school and he doesn’t get a run at all or comes on with 3 minutes left on the clock.

    Patty T, Vaa'i and Holland. Patty for an outstanding game filling in for injury, Vaa'i for stepping up at 6 and Holland who so far seems to be stepping into test match rugby seamlessly.

    Astute selections

    Given that you chose 3 locks (sort of), and are commending the selection of 3 locks by others, I’m going to hazard a guess that you were a lock at some point?

    Only in an absolute emergency.

    I skipped numbers 4 & 5 in my descent to the real low numbers.

    @Canes4life the old one they used to do (c 2000 - 2010, player values fluctuated, you had like 3 trades a round I think (which wasnt ideal, especially with so many byes in current format, so what they could do is allow unlimited trades on players in bye week or listed as injured, subject to your salary obviously)

    I’m off to the GOM thread

    Is it weetabix in England?

    Yes.

    Trust a pom like @bones to promote it

    They missed a trick, should have been called Weetabrits.

    @MajorRage said in My Turn ... Running Down A Dream:

    I was going to get pissy and say start your on thread, but every notification gives me a reason to re read this thread and bring back the good times.

    I injured my ankle so had 6 month out. Back in now, Althoigh I’ve got an extremely tight hammy so currently just on the rower. Joys of being old.

    Awesome work @African-Monkey. You should be very proud of yourself.

    Yeah I do apologize as you did start the thread. I was going to start a while back, but saw you had the same interest and thought I'll come in and be a dick and blend in and join you.

    I do hope you make a full recovery and hope you can make it back on the roads again. You were making some really good progress with your times.

    @BerniesCorner said in TSF Update - Politics forum gone, New server soon:

    What stack do you run.
    I was brought up in Wellington using pencil and paper.
    Managed to teach my old brain computing and ran a LAMP stack for our business. Now you can cheat code with grok.

    Minimal custom code on the forum. Website is AstroJS loading Vue components

    The stuff we are adding is more complex and requires a proper backend. Using Supabase for most of that.

    Grok? Yeah AI has massively changed IT. My job is unrecognisable from 1 year ago. Every month there seems to be another leap.. the speed of change is insane
