Oh come on… enough with the Patreon stuff already!! It’s completely unreasonable to ask people to pay over TEN CENTS A DAY for access to some of the best Fantasy punditry around.
It’d be like a stranger mowing your lawn for free for years and then suddenly having the audacity to ask for an optional payment to have their bush trimmed.
The nerve of you guys to ask people to value the countless hours you put into this… despite still providing a free version.
Calvin’s the worst!!!
PS. Feel free to offer me a year’s subscription if you enjoyed this incredibly subtle and definitely-not-obvious (Calvin’s the best) ad.

Waiting on champion data to actually give all the Roberts tackles to the correct bloke…1/5 tackles paid. Think redman got em all for having yellow boots

I think once the numbers go black, they never go back (or forward). 106 it is.

I’m holding for Naicos over Baz – suspect Jordan will limit Baz a little.

Merett in this week and christened with the VC is nice. Retschko scoring a ton has screwed my downgrade to Ison. Now scrambling for a red dot and bye plans a mess 😅

Not the worst problems to have though.

Did the app just glitch with the dpps just been added beforethe round Finnish? Flanders is a tpp with defence added? And I have T.Murry added ruck status. Anyone else noticed this.
