00:01:08
Jarrod Dyke
Um, but any case, oh, um, one thing that make sure you remember, I know it says at the end of the show that we're on there. We're not on, we're not on the, yeah the, the Twitter's anymore, even though our, my accounts open, but I have not checked it in over a week.

00:01:22
Jarrod Dyke

00:01:26
Grumpy Old Prop
It's not quite on the blue skies yet. um So I go back for that and.
00:01:30
Jarrod Dyke
No, well i I'm still using, I'm i'm using the the threads now, which I've i've had my first hu threads fight.
00:01:34
Grumpy Old Prop
ah it Yeah, you had your first discussion that makes me want to not go on threads ever. I'm like, oh, it's just like Twitter. OK, well, not quite.
00:01:45
Jarrod Dyke
I mean, blue sky is going to have as many humps at some point too, but but yeah.
00:01:49
Grumpy Old Prop
They will fucking humps.
00:01:51
Jarrod Dyke
So you
Discord Community Guidelines
00:01:52
Jarrod Dyke
can find us on there. You can find us on blue sky threads, Instagram, and you can join our discord group, which I probably have to refresh after today.
00:01:58
Jarrod Dyke
um Yes, but yeah, um, discords will be a great place to get on there if you want to discuss with a lot of people and just like somewhat like-minded and there are rules on there.
00:01:59
Grumpy Old Prop
I need to join it.
00:02:07
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm-hmm.
00:02:10
Jarrod Dyke
One of them is no dickheads. So get,
00:02:12
Grumpy Old Prop
Oh, well, then I should just not join.
00:02:14
Jarrod Dyke
we can talk about that later. Might maybe love to make an exception for that.
00:02:20
Grumpy Old Prop
Put one dickhead.
00:02:23
Jarrod Dyke
And it's the one guy who also helps with the pod.
00:02:25
Grumpy Old Prop
Oh, no, no, no, it's like the the old Simpsons joke. No dickheads. We can have one.
00:02:31
Jarrod Dyke
That's true, that's true. That's a good one.
Fantasy League Standings
00:02:36
Jarrod Dyke
All right, so we're on to, we're gonna go into Chip Yank's standings real quick here, just as a refresher for those of you that maybe don't want to remember, I certainly don't, I'm fucking hanging out near the bottom. The division one for Prem Subaru right now looks like Stu Mark,
00:02:58
Jarrod Dyke
Cobus, Duncan, George, Justin, myself, and Alex. And Alex, it's not that big a gap between me and him. And it's not that big a gap between me and Justin, so.
00:03:10
Jarrod Dyke
But at the top, it's like two guys kind of handling it pretty well with Mark and Stu, so.
00:03:15
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
Joining the Fantasy League
00:03:19
Grumpy Old Prop
In D2, we have um Aubrey up up top, ah and she and Barty have actually a pretty pretty good lead.
00:03:23
Jarrod Dyke
Gosh, she was up there.
00:03:26
Grumpy Old Prop
um I am in third, about 60 points behind. um I just got pushed past Paul um and Drew.
00:03:30
Jarrod Dyke
yep Yep.
00:03:35
Grumpy Old Prop
And then, um fuck, who is Rebel Scrum?
00:03:38
Jarrod Dyke
look
00:03:39
Grumpy Old Prop
Luke, thank you. Fuck, bad at that. He's the only one that's not right there.
00:03:42
Jarrod Dyke
First sticky note on your computer ding dong.
00:03:44
Grumpy Old Prop
And then um then ah ah Franco, hold at the bottom but those two are only two points away from each other.
00:03:48
Jarrod Dyke
Ah, yes.
00:03:51
Grumpy Old Prop
So there's there's a fight for for last there. um And again, if you've noticed, I've only listed seven players. We're still one short. So if you've been playing, um you know hopefully if you've you've been on Subaru this time, um if not, it's going to be really tough for you to compete in that one.
00:04:07
Grumpy Old Prop
um You could still, you know, get out of the basement potentially. Um, if you, if you do really fricking well, um, but we still have plenty of other competitions left. So if you want to give it a shot, or if you want to just see what it's all about with no pressure, cause you think you might not, you know, compete, yeah there's no relegation from the D2, only from D1.
00:04:26
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah, we don't have we don't have that many leagues yet, one day.
00:04:28
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. If you want in, you can give it a shot. We won't kick you out. You're you're all you're more than welcome to stay in as long as you want to play.
00:04:35
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah, one day, one day.
00:04:41
Jarrod Dyke
Okay, so we got
00:04:43
Grumpy Old Prop
but I did get the yellow hat last week. So, um um Aubrey, I'm coming for you.
00:04:49
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah, not far, not far, I'm sure.
00:04:52
Grumpy Old Prop
ah Not that far behind.
PWR Picks and Data Access
00:04:55
Jarrod Dyke
All right, we got some PWR picks. Let me just see if I can pull up my little, there it is.
00:05:07
Jarrod Dyke
Yes, okay. So before this weekend, because i we haven't tallied up this weekend, um we did get some totals. And the good news is we might actually get access to the data ourselves soon, which would be great.
00:05:20
Grumpy Old Prop
Hmm.
00:05:22
Jarrod Dyke
And we can just pull it out ourselves and do all that fun stuff.
00:05:25
Grumpy Old Prop
Hmm.
00:05:26
Jarrod Dyke
Phrasing boom. um Okay, so as of right now, the leader is our um buddy Duncan. Julia is only two points behind him though. So um we'll see how again, we'll see how this weekend's results shake out. But um kind of hanging out all by himself is Oscar and and third and then Uh, Joe and Barty are like neck and neck, like not even a point apart. Um, Ben's mid
Match Picks and Strategies
00:05:55
Jarrod Dyke
table. And then there's a big 30 yard point drop off. Pardon me between Ben and the rest. And it's that, that is led by, um, George after that, Tom Rihanna, and then some Jackass just holding up the bottom. No idea who that is. Never heard of him.
00:06:15
Grumpy Old Prop
Well, look I'm just happy I'm beating George then Speaking which oh go back to if we go back to super roofer for the briefest of moments How about
00:06:18
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah, no, it's like a there's a Where is it?
00:06:26
Grumpy Old Prop
um for the how many ah How many points does does George have in the Super and the Prem?
00:06:31
Jarrod Dyke
In what?
00:06:34
Grumpy Old Prop
Sorry.
00:06:35
Jarrod Dyke
Oh, um he I do have it.
00:06:36
Grumpy Old Prop
Still have that window open.
00:06:40
Jarrod Dyke
i Find them though. Just had it George, where'd you go? Um, well, I can, hold on. I'm perusing around the wrong fucking spot. Um, there he is. He's got 11 46.
00:06:59
Grumpy Old Prop
All right, son of a bitch. All right. I'm an 11 25. I'm coming for you, George, not far behind.
00:07:03
Jarrod Dyke
He's not that far off. Nope.
00:07:05
Grumpy Old Prop
You're, you're on my way to Aubrey.
00:07:05
Jarrod Dyke
You're getting there.
00:07:07
Grumpy Old Prop
I got to get past you to get to her.
00:07:09
Jarrod Dyke
What's what' what's your leader at?
00:07:11
Grumpy Old Prop
Aubrey's at 1209.
00:07:13
Jarrod Dyke
Okay. 1242 for us. So she'd be in third in this one.
00:07:19
Grumpy Old Prop
That's, I mean, so what's, and what's your, what's your lowest score?
00:07:20
Jarrod Dyke
Still respectable. Um, it's Alex. He's at 107.
00:07:28
Jarrod Dyke
1074. That's the word.
00:07:29
Grumpy Old Prop
1074 okay, and Franco's at 1051 and Yeah, and Luke's at 1053.
00:07:30
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah. All right. So not far off.
00:07:36
Grumpy Old Prop
So Yeah, not far.
00:07:37
Jarrod Dyke
Okay.
00:07:38
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, it's it's Again, there's definitely like there's definitely overlap between d1 d2. It's not Again nowhere to hide that's the fun part is there is really nowhere to hide there's these are these are good players They they know what they're doing
00:07:44
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah. Let's say we're going to all be in trouble. There is nowhere to hide. Yeah. All right. We're going to go into PWR picks.
00:07:57
Jarrod Dyke
um So for this week, I'm gonna go with, um ah I'm hoping they put her back in. I'm gonna pick May Campbell from the Saracens, because every game that she played before all the other players came back, she was amazing. So I'm hoping they get her back in there somehow. So I'll pick her.
00:08:17
Jarrod Dyke
um My back's going to be Meg Jones. The sale have been very generous to back, so I'm going to go with that, and then um getting short on kickers here already.
00:08:23
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:08:27
Jarrod Dyke
um I'm going to go with the US's Tess Fury, actually. I think she was kicking for Lester the other week, so she kicked a couple penalties, which I would love to add into that that score, so yeah.
00:08:36
Grumpy Old Prop
That, that would be nice. Um, so I need to go back and make sure that, that I'm not duplicating here, um, for at least one of them.
00:08:39
Jarrod Dyke
So I'm going to go with her.
00:08:45
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, so I'll have to check, uh, but my forward, I'm looking at Alex calendar.
00:08:45
Jarrod Dyke
I can check.
00:08:52
Jarrod Dyke
Okay.
00:08:52
Grumpy Old Prop
Harlequins, um, for my back, I didn't want to go all Harlequins and I don't think I've taken, I don't think I've selected Sydney Gregson yet.
00:09:03
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, ah Can't remember if it, were if I selected her or, um, who's the other center whose name I'm forgetting. Um, please a wing too.
00:09:12
Jarrod Dyke
um
00:09:14
Grumpy Old Prop
I fucking got them.
00:09:16
Jarrod Dyke
Yep. I'm, I'm with, I'm with you on that one.
00:09:18
Jarrod Dyke
McKenna.
00:09:18
Grumpy Old Prop
All right. You're blank.
00:09:19
Jarrod Dyke
That's the word.
00:09:19
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:09:20
Grumpy Old Prop
Wait, who McKenna?
00:09:21
Jarrod Dyke
McKenna.
00:09:23
Grumpy Old Prop
No, it's someone else. I'm just blanking on it. Don't worry about it. We'll come back to it. Um, I yeah.
00:09:27
Jarrod Dyke
Well, you, you have, by this, you you have not picked Gregson, so you're okay.
00:09:33
Grumpy Old Prop
Okay. Cool. um And then Lagi to Emma as my my kicker for Quinn's.
00:09:39
Jarrod Dyke
Okay. Okay.
00:09:43
Grumpy Old Prop
And how close are we to the the the um the reset?
Fantasy Competition Reset
00:09:47
Jarrod Dyke
Well, there's 18 rounds.
00:09:51
Grumpy Old Prop
And we're in what, eight?
00:09:53
Jarrod Dyke
This, this will be eight.
00:09:54
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah.
00:09:54
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:09:56
Grumpy Old Prop
Okay, so close this week and then next.
00:09:56
Jarrod Dyke
So yeah.
00:09:58
Grumpy Old Prop
And then we flip it. We we we reset everything. Good. Cause like you said, we're not out of kickers.
00:10:01
Jarrod Dyke
Yes.
00:10:03
Grumpy Old Prop
It's tough. There's, there's.
00:10:05
Jarrod Dyke
The tickers are the worst, man. It's like, no, get back here. Um, yeah, there's 18 rounds. And then when we get to semi-final and final, again, we'll wipe the slate clean.
00:10:16
Jarrod Dyke
You can only pick player like it treat. Treat the, treat the knockouts as like their own half of the season.
00:10:16
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:10:23
Grumpy Old Prop
New season. Yeah.
00:10:25
Jarrod Dyke
So you can't pick anybody that you've picked in the semi-final for the final. So just keep that in mind. But yeah, we're almost to the halfway point where we wipe this like clean.
00:10:33
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm hmm.
00:10:36
Jarrod Dyke
All right. We are on start sitting now.
Player Advice for Upcoming Matches
00:10:38
Grumpy Old Prop
All right. And I start because Quinn's play Bristol first and then it's Saracens versus Newcastle. Excellent.
00:10:46
Jarrod Dyke
Same night, but I think one starts earlier.
00:10:48
Grumpy Old Prop
Same the same time, but I think that's how we we we have them organized this way. So um this one is going to be tough because it's going to be a question of who's actually going to play.
00:10:52
Jarrod Dyke
yep
00:10:58
Grumpy Old Prop
um But for the Quinn's, Will Evans or Kenning him, um Both will play I probably lean towards will over cutting it but they both could do reasonably well I'm guessing easy group is gonna just get thrown right back out there um Because I don't know who else how did he um I Thought he went back.
00:11:14
Jarrod Dyke
yep you came off the other day i thought did you come off again i thought you hot came off against france maybe i'm losing my mind
00:11:21
Grumpy Old Prop
I thought okay, so Yeah, I thought it maybe he went back in or something like that. I think I looked at it and I don't know.
00:11:25
Jarrod Dyke
Okay.
00:11:27
Jarrod Dyke
Okay.
00:11:27
Grumpy Old Prop
Maybe I'm wrong I
00:11:31
Grumpy Old Prop
But yeah, then that's a big question mark and really, uh, um, Tarone green, um, is someone you want to look at. Um, cause who's going to be going to start putting his hand up to say, Hey, i'm I'm available now.
00:11:38
Jarrod Dyke
Yep.
00:11:44
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, for the Bristol liens, um, Harry Thacker, I think, um, we'll be starting this match. Um, he could do well against a depowered Quinn's team. Joe Batley will be.
00:11:56
Grumpy Old Prop
I think taking out some frustrations on them too. Um, and then Fitz Harding. AJ I'm guessing is gonna play um and then Rovovo ito is it between hurt?
00:12:08
Jarrod Dyke
No, not till I knew.
00:12:08
Grumpy Old Prop
Okay, and then even maybe in Toby f Fricker it depends on who's who's out there at wing for Quinn's Fricker may have a an advantage. I mean certainly played already against ah um Saracens and um Also for the the MLR champion free jacks he's played well, so I'm gonna you know recommend him as well
00:12:26
Jarrod Dyke
the
00:12:32
Jarrod Dyke
um Jesus, excuse me. All right, um Newcastle versus Saracens. Newcastle, I don't have a ton for you. Blomire has scored well the last three games. So there's that.
00:12:44
Jarrod Dyke
Um, he's not a terrible price. I think he's 3 million. So that's not awful in terms of, in terms of that. And we've talked about like finding a decent, cheap backup 10 and Conan's price now matches that.
00:12:59
Jarrod Dyke
So I think he's healthy again. So that will help. Um, so that's a possibility as well. um That's all I got. The rest, i i yeah i I got nothing. Pass. Pass. Sorry. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Sorry, not sorry.
00:12:59
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:13:13
Jarrod Dyke
um saracens Saracen's. Reese Carey, I mentioned in my my recent post. Yes, play him. Jinxer, Theo Dan.
00:13:25
Jarrod Dyke
Theo Mac. Yep. Maro, Tis, and Sequo.
00:13:29
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm hmm.
00:13:30
Jarrod Dyke
Those four are in exactly that order in terms of my preference. um
00:13:34
Grumpy Old Prop
Well, Maro's unlikely to play, I would assume.
00:13:36
Jarrod Dyke
I bet he is too, especially with.
00:13:38
Grumpy Old Prop
This is Nick, because I mean, he played, so I don't know if he's going to get on mandatory rest for that. I don't know.
00:13:42
Jarrod Dyke
We'll see and see what they go with.
00:13:44
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:13:44
Jarrod Dyke
Um, yeah, again, depending on availability, Earl Gonsal will steal his choice on all of those, um, then sale laws did not play a lick.
00:13:47
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:13:53
Jarrod Dyke
So you should feel free to pick him.
00:13:55
Grumpy Old Prop
Yep.
00:13:55
Jarrod Dyke
Um, daily same thing, um, device, Elliott Shagan. Yes. My only sits and slash concerns is our Fergus Burke, who I almost he magically has the T again.
00:14:06
Jarrod Dyke
Um, and then, uh, Nick Tompkins, who doesn't...
00:14:07
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm-hmm But he's actually fergus burks is scored pretty well without factoring in kicking points, too.
00:14:14
Grumpy Old Prop
So And he's fairly cheap if I'm not mistaken um He's eight that's not ten um But yeah, he and he well, okay fair enough he had 18 once when that was against the Chiefs No, no can never mind if you're gonna spend eight spend eight with AJ.
00:14:18
Jarrod Dyke
Hmm, ain't that cheap? He's eight.
00:14:23
Jarrod Dyke
No, but it ain't that cheap.
00:14:29
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah. no play a j Yeah.
00:14:34
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, I
00:14:36
Jarrod Dyke
You have to spend the eight and play AJ.
00:14:38
Grumpy Old Prop
Fair enough.
00:14:40
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah. And then Tompkins just hasn't really done it yet.
00:14:42
Jarrod Dyke
So I'm passing on the home right now.
00:14:43
Grumpy Old Prop
All right, Northampton versus Gloucester.
00:14:48
Grumpy Old Prop
This was the one that I was saying in the last pod that I was like, you know, Gloucester could take it until I started looking at the who was going to be playing for the Saints. um And yeah, Finn Smith won't be available. But they're going to have a a nine who who's quite good.
00:15:02
Grumpy Old Prop
And again, it may be Hutchinson playing ten who can do it. um but then you look at, you know, through yeah they could be starting a um ah back row of Kevin E.
00:15:13
Grumpy Old Prop
Pearson and truck. And right there, that's better than anything Gloucester have put out there this season by a lot. um And then you still have, again, Hutchinson, Dingwall in the centers.
00:15:26
Grumpy Old Prop
um He didn't play a little bit. It was even called into the team this year, or this Dingwall.
00:15:30
Jarrod Dyke
who
00:15:33
Grumpy Old Prop
I know he was on, okay.
00:15:33
Jarrod Dyke
Who No, no you play it you played in the summer you can play you can play this for this one though
00:15:35
Grumpy Old Prop
um Yeah, okay, um so he'll be available. He could have some space to run in um and then Hendy back there um who has been nothing but lightning.
00:15:49
Grumpy Old Prop
And then on the other side, Gloucester have, you know, Jackson, littleton I think he's, he's healthy. Um, Freddie Thomas, yeah. Bartner, I can sit at 10 could do well, uh, depending on who's at 10 for, uh, for saints and then for low and wait out wide could do well. Cause I mean, Hendy's there, but I'm not sure who else is going to be there. If it's, um, shoot, who am I thinking of it in the outside backs? Um,
00:16:15
Jarrod Dyke
Chris, is he healthy?
00:16:17
Grumpy Old Prop
I'm thinking like Seabrook, um, or, or even that make piece cubit who played all right.
00:16:18
Jarrod Dyke
Oh, C-Rock, yep.
00:16:21
Grumpy Old Prop
Like, or Ram actually has been playing really well. So that's a possibility.
00:16:23
Jarrod Dyke
Now I understand where we're going, yep.
00:16:26
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, yeah. What I'm saying is, yeah, is, is, um, Wade and, oh, where am I?
00:16:26
Jarrod Dyke
Okay.
00:16:33
Grumpy Old Prop
There I am. Um, and Thorley could, could have favorable match-ups out wide.
00:16:36
Jarrod Dyke
Yep. Okay. I have bath and the fuck sticks.
00:16:44
Jarrod Dyke
Okay. Exeter, um, for bath starts haven't really changed all whole, whole lot since they last played, um, Obama, Thomas de Toa, uh, Ted Hill, assuming he's not broken pepper.
00:16:45
Grumpy Old Prop
Oh, those guys.
00:16:59
Jarrod Dyke
Same thing.
00:17:00
Jarrod Dyke
Finn. Um, I'll still, I'll back will, but this game because Exeter have been very generous.
00:17:00
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm hmm.
00:17:07
Grumpy Old Prop
Oh, yeah.
00:17:07
Jarrod Dyke
Um, and then do, do I have bell coca mirror?
00:17:11
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm hmm.
00:17:12
Jarrod Dyke
Anybody like that? Yep.
00:17:13
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm hmm.
00:17:13
Jarrod Dyke
Um, sit down, sit Barbary. Although maybe this might be more advantageous to Barbary, but I just, yeah.
00:17:19
Grumpy Old Prop
I think so, um because again, it's going to be asked to make a lot of um easy tackles.
00:17:21
Jarrod Dyke
yeah
00:17:26
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah. they go um Yeah.
00:17:28
Grumpy Old Prop
And he'll get a turnover opportunities and you know he likes doing that.
00:17:30
Jarrod Dyke
And if you have the co Jones to play, could see a good for you. I just don't, I don't know if I have that to play him while he's on the bench. Cause he scores so well off the bench.
00:17:42
Jarrod Dyke
He hasn't scored below 12 and all that's been off the bench.
00:17:47
Grumpy Old Prop
Wow.
00:17:48
Jarrod Dyke
Right? Like what the actual fuck?
00:17:54
Jarrod Dyke
Can't make that shit up. Cannot. Anyhoo. Four. Exeter. Fisselow, Hodge, Feijo, Boso, Brown, Bempo are probably the ones that you're really going to keep an eye on.
00:18:07
Jarrod Dyke
Everybody else, I'm kind of meh on like frost to emotions. ah Capsaic roots let them slate unless you want to give him the tea That's about it all I got for you those slayed might be unrest as well So do that one out the out the window, but yeah Now if you did anything Beats me Oh
00:18:24
Grumpy Old Prop
Unrest from war. Yeah.
00:18:34
Grumpy Old Prop
That lose you. Oh, OK. Oh, you're oh, you don't.
00:18:38
Jarrod Dyke
I'm drinking beer.
00:18:39
Jarrod Dyke
I'm done. That's the end for me.
00:18:39
Grumpy Old Prop
Ah, fair enough.
00:18:42
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, then say they're, you know, one of the real matches of the week, absolutely sale versus Lester.
Sale vs. Leicester Match Preview
00:18:49
Grumpy Old Prop
Oh, can't wait. Oh, they're doing, they're doing this twice.
00:18:52
Grumpy Old Prop
Oh my God. I just realized what a terrible representation for the game.
00:18:54
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah. I think they're playing them in the same spot.
00:19:02
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah.
00:19:02
Jarrod Dyke
I think they're doing an AJ bail all day for for the the women and the men.
00:19:02
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, although
00:19:07
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. Oh, oh.
00:19:09
Jarrod Dyke
hopefully Hopefully, the sell sharks don't make the women change in an office.
00:19:15
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:19:16
Jarrod Dyke
Which is what I heard about the Bristol women and the Saracens women for during when they were down at the gate.
00:19:18
Grumpy Old Prop
Oh, that's. Well. Oh, don't do that. But either way, this is just not going to be good.
00:19:29
Jarrod Dyke
No.
00:19:31
Grumpy Old Prop
um Anyway, for sale but for the men. um
00:19:36
Grumpy Old Prop
Robert Dupree maybe with with the K, but again, he's a center. um So you're paying it center. So you need, you know, that might be good, like combo with Fergus Burke, but again, I don't know.
00:19:47
Jarrod Dyke
We'll see.
00:19:48
Grumpy Old Prop
um And then a Flaherty read, maybe, because I know he didn't play too, too much.
00:19:52
Jarrod Dyke
Yep.
00:19:53
Grumpy Old Prop
Nice try, but. um
00:19:53
Jarrod Dyke
Played one, played against, um, Portugal and that was it.
00:19:59
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. um Oh, yeah. So that's yeah he's he'll be played. And then Carpenter. and hoping you play one of them and you kind of just hope that that they get the ball um with some space. On the other side, for for Lester, I'm guessing it's going to be Charlie Clare at at Hook. And I say that because um I have basically him and Montoja because I'm figuring one of them is going to start um each match or even come off the bench, which would both should do all right off the bench either way. um But if you have that, like I do, this might be a good match for Claire. um Harry Wells is kind of
00:20:36
Grumpy Old Prop
in the direction of where he once was ah back in the TRM days. So um consider him, even Leibenberg in this match. um This is his kind of match. He's like that physical, but also kind of in space. Like he could actually like, again, if if sales start five locks um as they've been doing, ah he could be one of the more mobile back rowers on the field, which is kind of scary.
00:21:03
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah.
00:21:03
Grumpy Old Prop
I'm guessing Pollard steps back in.
00:21:08
Grumpy Old Prop
But even if it's Schillcock, I think he could do all right there. Parisi at the center, yes, OHC, absolutely. And then it depends on who's on the other side. Bassett could actually kind of have a day here, depending on whose sale bring an opposition to him.
00:21:19
Jarrod Dyke
Yep.
00:21:24
Grumpy Old Prop
So he scores the cheeky try every so often. But usually only he has The talent advantage which he may in this match Starts and sits of the week
00:21:32
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah, I guess we'll find out right. All right. OT dubs. Um, you mentioned my start of the week. Um, while Gloucester have been wonderful to watch again, they're still very leaky against fancy, fancy attack. So very generous to your fancy team. Um, I have, I liked this guy a lot.
00:22:01
Jarrod Dyke
I'm going to give it to the top last tomato juice and make George had to eat my star of the week this week.
00:22:04
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm-hmm.
00:22:07
Grumpy Old Prop
I Like that I think he's gonna do really well this week Yeah On my end for similar reasons and I considered obviously Hendy cuz like you said I mentioned him I did mention the guy that I am gonna have him as my start of the week and that's because I think he's just got Even though he's in a way, you know, he's the only way team
00:22:11
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah. Cause I mean, obviously you see what he starts, but yeah, give it, give it a whirl friends.
00:22:34
Grumpy Old Prop
think he's got kind of a soft he's gonna have a soft matchup and a team that doesn't do well that this isn't playing on all cylinders there isn't running all cylinders and and won't have their really their three biggest players and maybe four or five two of their best players i guess because i know i'm thinking of out in the wing in the direction of where this gentleman plays.
00:22:55
Grumpy Old Prop
um But Calavetti Revovo for Bristol, I think is gonna find a lot of space and um maybe you should consider some space for him on your fantasy team.
00:22:59
Jarrod Dyke
e There you go.
00:23:06
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah, I'm sure lots of people are trying to work out how to get him in assuming all things go well with my apps and such ah Sit I don't know if I've used this guy's this is a week but He's been a frustrating player for me to watch because number one he's playing in the wrong place and I mean location not um position and number two he just become a total knucklehead and I'm just like I
00:23:10
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm-hmm.
00:23:24
Grumpy Old Prop
ah
00:23:32
Jarrod Dyke
Please tell me you weren't always this way and that this is like just something that's happening because you're playing in fucking Devin. But my style of weeks got to be Dan Frost from Mexico.
00:23:41
Grumpy Old Prop
you know end of the week
00:23:43
Jarrod Dyke
I say the week. Excuse me.
00:23:44
Jarrod Dyke
Jesus. Two beers. yeah so Two Look at us.
00:23:45
Grumpy Old Prop
yeah yeah i mean yeah I mean, he was a, I remember being ah a little bit of a prick.
00:23:54
Grumpy Old Prop
but like good in the loose. And I think this is just bringing out too much of the prick in a freezing.
00:23:57
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah, no, I think there's there's a there's a line where you can just kind of have an edge, but stay on it.
00:24:04
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:24:04
Jarrod Dyke
And it goes over it way too often now.
00:24:06
Grumpy Old Prop
He does. He does. um My set of the week is, ah you know, I mentioned, uh, Henry Leibenberg, I think he's going to be playing six. Um, cause you know, they've been putting like have the role and another is at eight.
00:24:19
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, But basically whoever is at eight for Lester, I think just have a sit. Um, with again, the exception of Lievenberg, cause I think he's going to play pretty well, but I don't know that they've played him at eight recently.
00:24:24
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah, probably one of those guys.
00:24:29
Jarrod Dyke
Yeah, it'll be he probably have their own crack.
00:24:31
Grumpy Old Prop
So yeah.
00:24:33
Jarrod Dyke
It won't be my guess. Unless, unless they've during these product games, they found an affinity for someone else there, which is really, which is possible, but I, I'm just not banking on it.
00:24:41
Grumpy Old Prop
True. Always possible. Nope.
00:24:46
Jarrod Dyke
That's all. Not at all. All right friends, good return to this whole thing. Um, we'll have the sheet ready cause neither Ben nor I are working on Friday.
