Forwards of the decade, Fantasy favourites and cult heroes – Ep. 343

We don’t know the return date as yet, but in a fortnight we should. Roy, Calvin and Warnie mull over when it could be and what we might need to think about for Fantasy. An old friend leaves a message for the boys and Todd Goldstein is chopped from the Team of the Decade. Calvin isn’t allowed to have a say on the best forwards from the last 10 years as the squad is finalised. As The Traders remember the past, they look at their favourite stories from over the years and the Fantasy cult heroes that go down in folklore.
