Wed, 8 April 2015
This week's All Star edition includes the Triple M's - Mark, Mikey and Matty. Mark is fresh off a loss to the high flying Matty which makes it hard for him to admit and the calls of collusion are out already! The boys talk about the dramas at the end of the Bulldogs game, but their biggest gripe is how some of them were throwing out full bottles - that's $8 in NZ! Thie big questions include whether half points bench lead to tantrums in your competition - because it sure does in the Tantasy league! There's a lot of debate about the talents of Matthew Wright, or is it Matthew Wrong? As always there's a shout out to David Fifita. We hope you're listening again mate. Lastly they can't help but have a dig at the Moneyball boys who missed their podcast last week. |
Wed, 25 March 2015
The first thing the Tantasy boys feel like they need to address this week is the bitch slap from Keify Galloway on Tim Grant. Then there's the fighting in the street between Jacob Loko and Jorge Taufua and Ben Barba and Dane Nielsen. What's going on in thugby league? The next target on the Tantasy agenda is why Aussies can play the new Moneyball.com.au fantasy game for cash and why they can't - is it because they are better at cricket? Lastly, the Moneyball Podcast don't miss out on the sledges either, but you'll have to tune in to find out this barb! |

Tue, 10 March 2015
For the first podcast post draft the boys lament some of their picks - particularly their first round picks. After getting the first overall pick through a left handed darts challenge, Mikey's first pick ended up with a donut. Is it the first ever zero point scoring first draft pick? The rest of the show focusses on the big issues including why Mark is losing on purpose to take advantage of the waiver wire, whether the new Dogs hooker is called Lick-her or Lick-a and a preview to the second round of the NRL. |
