Introduction to The Fantasy Europeans Podcast
00:00:03
Speaker
It is The Fantasy Europeans. My name is Jared Dyke. I wanted to say it's stupid and let's move on, but then you kept going. I'm Ben Glauser. I don't like any way anybody handled that. A collusion.
Champions League and Fantasy Rugby Yanks Recap
00:00:29
Speaker
Hey, everybody. Welcome back. It is the Fancy Rugby Yanks. My name is Jared Dyke. I'm Ben Glauser. All right. We are in. It is fantasy time. It's Champion's League recap. So let's look. We'll check. I don't think there's any movement in Prime Superbrew.
00:00:50
Speaker
No, there wasn't any. Oh, there was. You jumped the head of George. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Cobus got the yellow hat and Justin got the wooden spoon. So the only thing is a swap between myself and George. Yeah, that's tight right there. Freaking 20 odd points. That's it. That's what she said. Cobus, Stu, myself, George, Ben, Duncan, Mark, and Justin is how that current
Division Standings Overview and Key Performers
00:01:20
Speaker
Batch lands right now. Uh, Alex of the yellow hat and division two. Good for him. Uh, current, there was a big, there was a pretty good shuffle between, for Franco, we jumped two spots and knocked Abri and Anton down a spot eats. So it's Alex, Paul, Franco, Anton, Abri, Luke, and Barty. And that went out. We had a ton of the wooden spoon. Oopsie. Okay.
00:01:51
Speaker
Let's go over to FRD. Good old times. Um, so we had two finals to play. We had the SACO final and we had the championship final.
00:02:10
Speaker
So for division one, of course, congratulations to George who beat Mark with a fairly notable score line, about 40 odd points or so, 41, almost 41. Pretty good day for our old friend George there. Aw man, just got squeaked out.
00:02:30
Speaker
Well, it would have helped if Sean Stevenson didn't drop when I couldn't replace him. Yeah, that hurts you. To be fair, Carter Gordon did the same thing for COVID. For COVID. So it kind of evened out a little bit. A little bit. Kind of. I think Stevenson would have scored more. But Carter Gordon had a good year.
00:02:48
Speaker
Yeah. Who's to know who's to say, but I mean... Me. I'm to say. I got fucked. But I also got a double Sacco, so... Let's get fucked. Oh yeah, that's right. I beat you in the... Except one too. With that...
00:03:07
Speaker
So it gives us a result for our Champions League standings, which I have. It's 10 to George, eight to Mark, seven to Justin to myself, three to Duncan and Stu, one to Cobas and poor old Ben here with a big old donut again. You got a couple of donuts, don't you?
00:03:25
Speaker
Yeah, I'm not, I'm not doing so much this year. Donuts. So with that, it makes the standings read like this in the order. Um, George first, let's do second, Mark third, Cobus fourth, Duncan fifth, and that is tight right there. By the way, that's three points between the two of them, I think, or two points in the three of them. Excuse me. Um,
00:03:53
Speaker
Justin in six, myself in seventh and Ben's pulling up the rear right now. Somebody has two boys. Two boys next year. I think, I think I'm pretty, I'm pretty, uh, locked into that, huh? It'd be just about, it's going to be tough for you to escape to the least. Um, on the, so in the division two side, I can just put, uh, results.
00:04:25
Speaker
It was a pretty good one if I remember right. So we had to do, do, do, do, do, do. Oh, hold on. There's a message in the board that I did not see before. Damn it to hell. Get back here. Get back here. Okay. Yeah, there we go. Okay. I already knew that answer.
00:04:53
Speaker
So the match-up was, duh-duh-duh-duh. Anton won. It's the only comp he's gonna do well in, it sounds like. He beat, who I, Schechter Gurdi, who I believe is Barty, now that I've done my homework and my work. And then, which means, I believe Mr. Rugby is Avery.
00:05:17
Speaker
But he lost to Franco, so he doesn't get any points anyway.
Super Rugby Updates and Team Movements
00:05:21
Speaker
So it doesn't matter. She. Oh, yeah, you're right. I was a lady. You're right. My fault. This is what happens when I don't have enough sleep. That's all right. We got two of us. That's why we have two of us. Yes, it is. There was a...
00:05:38
Speaker
It was a great number of things that just either didn't go well for both of them or had drops like you want he dropped for every, um, curve only didn't play. I don't think for.
00:05:54
Speaker
Abri as well. No, he didn't. So, Funaki didn't play. I think Franco picked up Josh Jekk. I'm hoping that someone would drop and he would replace them. ALB didn't play very well and neither did Nohalo. So, he was
00:06:15
Speaker
or the whole, no, it didn't even play, did he? No, he didn't. It was more be loving. Yeah. So you must've been just hoping and praying or maybe you just didn't touch his lineup, which is also a possibility. That's possible. Yeah. Let's throw that possibility out there as well. Anyway, um, he managed to get himself a point. So that's that with that, it leaves.
00:06:36
Speaker
He actually leaves Alex in first in this comp right in division two right now, so he's in line for promotion. Franco in second, Paul in third, Barty in fourth, Anton, Luke and Avery all tied for fifth. So there's that. But there's still two competitions to go. We have Super Brew, Super Rugby.
00:07:03
Speaker
Yeah, there was movement. Some some some goings ons around here. All around me. Yeah, it seems that. Stu jumped from behind me to in front of me and then George fell below me. So I stay in the same place, but they sweep. Duncan and Justin also swap places. So funny enough, the yellow hat was near the bottom of the league, which obviously meant Duncan jumped someone. And then the spoon was at the top of the league with Cobas. So
00:07:32
Speaker
Cobus Mark, Stu, Ben, George, myself, Duncan, and Justin is how that league reads. The D2 is looking like with no movement. So it's Paul Franco, Franco with the yellow hat. Everybody, Luke, Alex, and Anton continuously gets the wooden spoon because he didn't enter a team. Attaboy, Anton, showing some real effort there.
00:08:04
Speaker
With that, we're not doing PWR picks. We'll all update the standings this week.
PWR Picks and Semifinals Preparations
00:08:10
Speaker
Okay. We're not doing PWR picks because there's semi-finals next week, I believe. No, it's this week. Is it this week? It's this week.
00:08:18
Speaker
No. Did I screw that up? Oh, damn it. Well, I don't have mine ready then. I thought for sure it was next week. Nope. Son of a biscuit. My fault. Well, I have mine here. I'll do mine. Yeah. You give yours at least until at least one of us doesn't look like a great fucking idiot. Um, so mine, uh, my forward, you know, I, I'm going to stick with the hosts as one does. And this, this point, um, my forward's going to be Alex Matthews. My back is going to be Jess breach.
00:08:46
Speaker
And my kicker is going to be Emma Singh. OK, good one. Yeah, so for those that didn't hear the rules on this, on this, these next two rounds, slate is clean once again, because we know a lot of people are picking a lot of players on these teams in the previous rounds. So we're going to wipe the slate clean once more. And but if you pick someone in the semifinal, you cannot pick them in the final. That is the rule. So you bet you will be you will be shafted with a certain
00:09:16
Speaker
kicker depending on who you pick. Right. Yeah. Let's see how it goes. I've chosen to go with Emma Singh in this round. That may change. We'll see. Yeah. We'll see what I managed to do once I actually uncock this and go watch. I also have a semi-final for myself to worry about too. Exactly. You got other things. My fault, everyone. Sorry. Kids took priority this week.
00:09:44
Speaker
Uh, anyway, um, so we're going to look at the prep final this weekend. Um, same thing is going to happen. We're going to do, right. We're going to put out a list of, you know, best to worst in terms of what's there and let you all make your own determinations from there with that. Um, is there any reason not to go do TWA and Obama win the final?
00:10:14
Speaker
No. Unless you want to be contrarian and go long. So the team limits are gone and the salary cap's gone. You still have to have, you can only get eight transfers, but team limits gone and salary cap's gone. So if you can manage them, manage to get the player in, you're good. Right. And I'm happy with this because I basically just replaced all of my bench players or my non-playing players. So I haven't finalized the,
00:10:45
Speaker
the transfers, but at least I have guys plugged in. I don't have to worry about a player dropping. I was kind of pooping myself a little bit this past weekend that somebody might drop, but didn't have to worry about it. Yeah, I did too. I had a couple of bench players, so I was like, damn it, no. I had a couple of non-playing players.
00:11:05
Speaker
Same. Yeah, I did too. Two Quins. I had Jack, Dan Portvolyte. I had Gabe Belagre still in, so I had a couple guys, so I was like, oh. Please don't drop. Please don't drop. Langdon or Dunn, because it's probably Langdon. This is a flip a coin situation. I think so. Well, here's my thing, because Dunn is likely to play most of the match.
00:11:35
Speaker
Langdon, I could see the, you know, how much I don't remember when he subbed off. But when you have Sam out of AC behind, it's different. You know, when you look at the backups, Sam out of AC on one side now and out on the other. I'm trusting Medivace to come in and provide a spark. If I'm saying some probably subbing off around 50 minutes, whereas done could be play 70 minutes or more.
00:12:01
Speaker
So I might go for the, that's why this flip a coin. Langdon's going to get you more points per minute, but Dunn is going to have a lot more opportunities because he's going to have, I think he's going to play more. So to me, it's kind of a coin flip there. True. There's that possibility for sure. Alex Coles and who else?
00:12:29
Speaker
I might go Moon. Okay. Who's been scoring well. He only had six and a half last week, but then again, it's Sarri's. Sarrisons are usually a tough defense at the very least. He did have 13 and a half against Bath away. Did he play that? He didn't play when they played him. I'm sorry, at home. He didn't play when they went to Bath.
Player Performance and Strategy for Upcoming Matches
00:12:55
Speaker
Moon's been scoring pretty well.
00:12:59
Speaker
I may, you know, look at the other side and go Yule's. I don't know. It's, it's one of those two besides always calls probably. Right. Um, cause it's probably gonna be Quinn Roo again. I don't think they're going to start Stuke. Although if they did, I might, I might consider it honestly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. For sure.
00:13:24
Speaker
Back row's gonna be one of the more interesting spots. Is it two each?
00:13:32
Speaker
that is in a team and then you have to pick from the three of those, three out of the four of those, or do you just know exactly who you're going with? I mean, I kind of have an idea as to who I'm going with. The guys on my squad right now are Pearson, although that again is kind of a coin flip between him and truck. But I think he outscored truck last week. I think he did too. Although he also came off early.
00:13:58
Speaker
Oh, no, he did. He only got three and a half. Yeah, he did not score well. No. Truckee did 12. So pretty good. There you go. But same thing, Barbary.
00:14:12
Speaker
I don't know, but I'm going with Courtney Laws as my other sales player. Yeah, that's one I was thinking about this week too. I was like, ooh, I might go with that. Because- Actually, not parent. With his back against a wall and- All that I knew. He's going to put in the effort and his opposite number, Ted Hill, the two sixes I think are going to have days. That's really where I'm looking. The Pearson one is probably, he's probably going to be on my bet. It's probably going to be Barbary Laws Hill.
00:14:40
Speaker
Nice. Yeah. Um, Barbra truck. Because, you know, I think if, if I really, Oh, Barbra truck. Um, that's a, that is a tough one. Yeah. Because again, I think truck will play.
00:15:03
Speaker
more of the match. Um, the Barbary, he's just one of those who could get loose and have himself a day, but his days have been intermittent this year. And I'm kind of leaning towards, he's kind of tired. So maybe, yeah, yeah, it's kind of rough. I'm not, I'm not sold. So I go truck over Barbary. Yeah. So with that, with the halfbacks,
00:15:32
Speaker
You have flaps come out. Are we picking one for me? So we pick in a pair. I'll pick in one from each. Okay. Because that way, if one drops or whatnot, you have the other start. Yeah, that's, that's the way to go. No, but like more pick the combination or you got to pick one from each.
00:15:52
Speaker
Oh, I'm picking one from each. I'm probably gonna go Finn on one side and definitely going Finn at 10. Way to make that fuckin' stupid observation there, chief. But Alex Mitchell's gonna be my nine. Okay, fair enough. Is there a true argument for either one of those positions, nine or 10, to play the other guy? Oh, yeah.
00:16:19
Speaker
It was a great argument for both of them. Because, you know, so Finn Russell scores a ton of points. He did get, he had 15 and a half, no, 15 and a half.
00:16:33
Speaker
How's that possible off the tee and half off the tee? That's weird. Um, he was, he was banging on throw, man. Yeah. Um, the half point is throwing me off. Um, I don't know what's going on with that. Yeah. And then you can look at it. Time out. I can find out.
00:16:50
Speaker
And, um, Finn Smith also had 16 and a half off the tee. Again, sorry, like there's, so at this point, you know what, you know what the decision for me is. And I talked about this and start sit for, for a super rugby though, is the two points for the win. Yeah. You might factor that into.
00:17:12
Speaker
Um, minus half for a missed kick. Ah, there it is. Yeah. He had 12 for penalty kicks, four for conversions. And then, so that gave him 16 and then he had minus a half for one of the penalty misses. Right.
00:17:29
Speaker
Center's one of the really weird and hard places to find a good scorer. We know Ollie Lawrence has scored well for the most part, although he didn't score well last week. He scored. Yeah, Sal did a really good job shutting him down. You only have four and a half points. So are we looking at someone not Ollie Lawrence this week or are we still not stick with him? Oh, you're still throwing him out there because you can't, you can't not.
00:18:01
Speaker
And then the question is, you know, Dingwall, Odendall, or Redpath. Yeah. And Odendall is kind of the dark horse and the whole combination too, because he is really only kind of came about since around 10.
00:18:15
Speaker
not sure anybody had that on their bingo board last week with him. No. And, and really he, this, you know, against Saracens, that was his first time over, over eight points. He, I should say over seven and a half. He hadn't had more than that until Saracens. So that's one of those, I wouldn't bank on that. Yeah. That's the blind squirrel finding that type of thing. So it's really then down between, um, and red path and red path.
00:18:44
Speaker
And to me, then I would, again, go with who you think might win and who's a better matchup. Yup. Back three is going to be interesting. Obviously, most people will have Slade Dome. I think most people have Will Muir as well. And then it's a matter of, mostly because Muir is very cheap and he's actually performed fairly well over the season for the most part. He's been a horse. He is the horse. Crazy ass.
00:19:14
Speaker
So then it leaves like two in like the biggest respects studs in Freeman and Koka as your options. Or you could have the outside option of maybe like Burbank. Right. Well, I'm glad I went for a bank this past week. Um, didn't captain him. Like I should have captain. Yeah. Most people wouldn't have thought to do that if we're honest, you know, most people have the idea of captaining either one of the back growers or, or slate home.
00:19:44
Speaker
Um, so I, you know, I still have coca, he's going to stick on my team. Um, and I'm right now, I tentatively have Freeman coming in. So it's probably going to be coca Freeman and, and for a bank to be, I think slides is going to have, have trouble getting loose again.
00:20:00
Speaker
He's a known, he's a known quantity at this point. So, but man, he's got, he's either way he's, he's got, he's, I think he's a little bit outmatched because Coco and Muir both have size on him and he does not have speed on them. Um, not that, which is shocking. You know, that's not, that's an amazing thing to say because, um,
00:20:23
Speaker
He's got some gas, but that's why I'm going with Freeman, I think, because Freeman has gas and strength. Yep. Be interesting to see if he plays at 13 again. Yeah. All right. Anywho, for the, just my starting set of the week, my start of the week is Alex Mitchell for the same. So my set of the week is Matt Gallagher.
00:20:53
Speaker
That's a good one. I like that one. I like that one a lot. And I mean that, I don't know why. With the greatest respect. I don't know why the Glanville is not in there.
00:21:07
Speaker
Yeah, it's, that's more of the thing for me. Like, why the fuck isn't he in there? Um, I mean, I saw him on the sideline and he doesn't look, doesn't look injured. Doesn't look injured. Just saying that for the rest of us out there. Um, I went, I'm also a huge fan of the other guys, so I, I'll have them on my bench just in case, but I went with Tom Dunn as my sitter the week. Hmm.
00:21:36
Speaker
I'm just such a huge fan of the way Curtis Langdon has played this season. Sorry, Saints fan, I probably just fucking cursed the shit out of you, but yeah, I just think it's going to be a good day for
00:21:53
Speaker
the words, um, the saints front row. So we'll see how it goes. But, and I think, uh, I think Langdon will be the better option is more what I'm at. Not that the son will do terrible, but more that he may get stood up by both the other hookers, honestly, depending on how the, how the day goes. Okay. Super's super duper's.
00:22:20
Speaker
Uh, we got chiefs and reds. Yeah. I'm a first. So for the chiefs, I mean, so we don't have to worry FRD anymore. That's the good news. We can, we can put that to bed. Love you. FRD glad glad you're around, but we can put that to bed for, so I don't want anything to do with any of their prompts. Really? Um,
Fantasy Rugby Draft (FRD) Segment and Player Selections
00:22:44
Speaker
I know, yeah, I don't, nevermind. That's not, that's actually not who I thought it was. Um, I know they have the one guy that scored like well on a points per game basis off the bench, but that's only cause he had one good game and has a couple of mad games. Otherwise, uh, talk Yahoo. Yes. Um, why probably, and I might, might fuck with, um, Akoi a little bit too, a little bit, a little bit.
00:23:11
Speaker
Um, so TT is my favorite back row of the bunch. Um, okay. With Finao, uh, Jacobson's kind of one you want to pass on though. Do you want any of them given the other back rows available? No, probably not. And so like I said, so TT is my favorite there. Uh, Rotom is definitely my favorite nine in this, not in this game to say, but definitely for them, DMAC you'll play anyway, cause he's too much to not play, to not play in this situation cost you way too much. Um,
00:23:43
Speaker
I'm gonna say two pi over ALB, but both are shardable. Should that be the combination? And then all three of those back three are green lights for sure, especially. Although this should be, I think it's gonna be a pretty open game, honestly. I think so too. So it'll be a fun watch. It wouldn't be a chief's team if it wasn't. Right, I'll be looking forward to this. For the Reds, my favorite prop should you want to play one is two manga Allen. Obviously you're gonna play
00:24:12
Speaker
Fessler like if you're not, you're crazy. Um, Ryan Smith still a thing. Fucking. Um, McRide does not make wrong if Wilson's back. I don't know if he is. Um, yes, I still don't love sir. We're playing out of the second row as a loose forward. So just try not to get too tempted by that. Please. Um, Tate. Yes. Um,
00:24:38
Speaker
probably okay to like, as a contrarian, play with whatever 10 they go with, whether it's Lynah or Creighton. Although Creighton's a zealot to the midfielder in this game, he is son of a bitch. I think, yeah. So, I mean, that could be good and it could be bad. It makes it difficult in terms of your 10 selection if you, because you gotta give him the T to have him be productive. And besides, there's Josh Fluke, who you'd rather play, trust me, as a midfielder at least in this game.
00:25:08
Speaker
Fluke is my favorite midfielder for sure. And then Ryan, yes. And. Jock Campbell is like a contrarian play, but not Mac, really. Yeah. Oh, Crichton's a freaking OB. Nope. Don't don't touch that. Right. Don't touch that. Nope, no, no, no. Don't touch that. All
Match Analysis and Predictions
00:25:30
Speaker
right. Off to Cain's Rebels. Yeah. I wish I was.
00:25:37
Speaker
The entire for the canes. So I really do think that the rebels had their hearts stolen from them last week. If Leota can't go, that's going to be massive for them, too. That just kind of opens things up for the canes, their entire front row. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Jose in the back row. Dabble in the others, maybe, but he's my main guy.
00:26:01
Speaker
there. T.J. Parinara, Brett Cameron's not a sneaky good play this week. Proctor, obviously, Ray Aussie and Morby are massive. And again, as I was saying earlier, the two points for the win here. So if you have Tanya, Teniella Tupo,
00:26:21
Speaker
Yeah, OK, he could do some some good things, but I just don't see any other of the rebels that I would really want to throw into this one, because I don't think it's going to go so well for them. No, no, no. All right, and then we are on to. Blues and Druo, which should have a point to plenty here, too.
00:26:47
Speaker
So Talbao or Tunga Fasi are both fine in terms of their prompts. That's probably, those are probably the two that are my favorite. Rick Itali is my favorite hooker in this game right now. He's been actually on fire lately. I'm pretty sure he's, yeah, he's got a couple of good scores in his last four or five starts. He's got, yeah, he's got three good scores, four good scores in his last five starts. So pretty good. Um, let me give him a thumbs up. Should he start, uh, locked, you're gonna play,
00:27:15
Speaker
Uh, Patrick two pillows for sure. Um, probably the only lock you want from maybe from this game, but definitely from not from this game, but definitely from this team. So two, two and Papa Lee, you're my two favorite loose forwards. Akira has kind of become third banana basically, uh, in this whole, in this little group. So now, um,
00:27:38
Speaker
Christie's back, so that kind of makes the half back spot irrelevant. I still like Harry Plummer. They've been putting him at 10 and having parapetted back at 15 in this situation. So that's only good news for Harry Plummer and those that want to pick him. So go ahead and give him a thumbs up. He's got a good score line in all but the Rebels game way back in round 11 since he's been highly involved in this and that includes the
00:28:08
Speaker
game against the Brumbies game against the force, like, yeah, all the way back there on seven. So that's pretty good. So I'm giving him a thumbs up right now. Uh, center, none comes to mind because even Rico's been bleh. So pass and then yeah, back three, um,
00:28:30
Speaker
I don't want Parafetta because he's actually not scored well since he's come back into the team and had the tee taken away from him, but you definitely want Caleb Clark and Talia. Talia should be in, it's probably going to be in most teams I would say. Right. Clark's probably going to be close as well. For the Drua, it kind of, Aria is probably the only front rower I have any interest in. Waka as the
00:28:53
Speaker
lock that's been playing six a lot and actually scoring quite well from there. So that's yeah. Salawa is the only true back row where I have a lot of interest in from the Jua. I don't have a ton of interest in Lamani. I know he scored well last week against the Rebels, but this ain't the Rebels. And this is also not a home for him. So, um, Armstrong Revula is an interesting contrarian play, but I don't know if I love it. I'm pretty sure this is a tough defense in terms of fans UI. So I,
00:29:22
Speaker
I think I want to stay away from that. You're going to play Masi in the midfield. That's probably the only midfield you want to touch anyway. And then Rivutimanda for sure, apart from that in terms of the back three, gets a little dodgy. I think I want to avoid it. Like, especially where you only have three spots to play anyway, if you're going to consider one for the draw, Rivutimanda is your guy. Okay. Then last matchup, Brumby's hosting Highlanders.
00:29:52
Speaker
We've seen the Highlanders be decent at times and not at others. I think that the Brumbies are going to... Not to spoil my pick, but I think Brumbies are going to...
00:30:06
Speaker
give them the business here. Frost is a go, especially from the lock position if you're looking around there. Valentini, if you're stuck for a back row, could have a huge day. If you're looking for a contrarian, 10. No, a little SEO could be massive. You could have a lot of opportunities for points. And then tool and write. Not a contrarian at all. You should have at least one of them on your team. For sure.
00:30:34
Speaker
On the other side, for the Highlanders, really, I'm looking at Ratuva, Tuva, Kneepkins, and that's about it. Yeah. Because I don't see the points happening, and I don't see them having the room. This, again, we're now into the point where defense is really going to matter. Probably have a pretty solid defense, and the Highlanders- Yes, and there's Watkins. Make sure to that, for sure. Right. The Highlanders don't, so I think that's going to be the difference. I just don't see that much room coming for the Highlanders attack.
00:31:06
Speaker
Um, of the weeks, of the weeks, open game, best open field player, probably in the league right now. My start of the week's going to be Mark Tollea.
00:31:17
Speaker
Fair. Good point. Yeah, good one. Good matchup, again, his opposite number, likely out for this game. And I mentioned him earlier as my only hurricane back row that I'd really want. But I think Brandon Yossi is going to have a lot of places, a lot of opportunities, and was going to take advantage of him. Can only hope.
00:31:39
Speaker
I can only hope. All right. O.T. Dubs. We into that? Yeah. I mean, I was thinking pick them a lot. Wow. See, see, this is what happens. What happens when they have kids, they said. Coach rugby at the same time, they said. Yes. My say of the week. It's a theme. He's going to get smothered, unfortunately. My say of the week is going to be Andrew Callaway.
00:32:04
Speaker
Hmm. And myself, would you mention him as a, as a potential comparison trade play that you just don't want this week? And I agree. Um, my sit of the week, as I say, a Revula, uh, yeah, yeah. Yeah. It's just, just tough, obviously traveling and right now that's not a fun defense to play against. All right. Now we can go to the other, you know, the pickups, the pickups. There's something wrong with my brain. I swear to God. Anyway. Um, okay.
00:32:33
Speaker
from final. Saints bath. Saints. Yeah. I think this is their year. Sorry, Duncan. I know those are the words you don't want to hear. But he thinks that's their time. They did. They did.
00:32:51
Speaker
All right. Super Ruby quarterfinals. Chiefs and Reds. Reds. Oh, all right. Well, I will, I will show some faith in your boys. I'm showing none. Canes and Rebels. Canes. Yeah. Better if I can get this. We earned the goddamn home, home semi. We earned the top spot. If we go ahead and bottle this, we deserve it. Yeah, I don't think you will. Blues Drew. Blues. Yeah.
00:33:20
Speaker
And then Brumby's Highlanders. They're good. Drew on the road is very different from Drew at home. Yeah, they're always a different animal. Brumby's Highlanders. Hosts, again. Brumby's. Yeah, same. Defense and hosts. No. Defense. All right. Cool. That's it for us, friends. We did it. So that's it for us over here.
00:33:43
Speaker
Yeah, like I said, we'll do the ranking sheet with, for the final, we'll get started out as soon as it's coming out tonight. So we can probably publish that ASAP. But other than that, enjoy the weekend friends, enjoy the final. Watch some rugby, have a good one all. Later. And cheers. This has been the fantasy rugby yanks podcast.
