Episodes

  • For our final episode of 2024, Catfish is joined by the first loser, 2024 runner-up Dave Campbell, a faithful employee of Newscorp and foregoer of $5,000 big ones. We learn a bit about Dave, his emotions as he realises how close he will come to winning but not being eligible for the cash prizes, and also break down his season - things he got right, wrong and everything in between. We also discuss some key takeaways from 2024 that we'll look to bring forward to 2025 and beyond.

    Congrats to all winners of our Champions group competition as well as our Champs Only Bonus leader!

    Finally, thanks to all for listening and your support. We look forward to going around again next year!

  • One last episode for the regular season in 2024, and it's Catfish riding solo one last time. We crunch the numbers on what happened in Round 27 last year and analyse what circumstances may have lead to the points scoring bonanzas on offer. Some chat on strategy as always but it's really just about seeing how it all plays out and who we have as our new overall champion for 2024!

  • This week we have a bit of a special episode, with Catfish and Joe Fitz combining with Mark Barnes a.k.a. Barnesy from the NRL Allstars podcast (currently 20th after a rough week). We talk about last week's scoring, some strategy, market watch for popular trades and then onto a big POD hunting segment for the final round. We finish going through TLT focusing on captain and vice captain preferences as well as sit start discussion. It is a huge final round with plenty of opportunity to move in the ranks still and plenty of opportunity to grab some interesting POD options with your final trades.
