We’re back! It’s been a good long time but we’re back in 2021 and are looking to continue 2018’s form of one podcast a week. This week’s podcast is more of a check as to where we’ve been and what we will be covering in the year to come. We definitely will be covering content related to the TPORankings and NPL football and in addition we’ve got some new football related interests to share. We go through the new leagues and teams added to the TPORankings (now 760 clubs!). The end of the show was us picking our Under 23 draft teams - listen along to see how that went. Cheers for listing - catch you next week.
Corona-what?? What a crazy couple of weeks. Nix and Victory in lockdown which means only 6 teams will play this weekend. What does it mean for your Fantasy strategy? We discuss all of the above and more in this week's episode.
This week we have special guest Liam Moran on the show. Liam is living in Newcastle and is currently ranked 2nd in the TPO Fantasy A-League Group. Let's hope he can overtake Jake before the end of the year. We also talk all the regular stats/topics including a couple listener questions. Thanks for listening.
A little later than usual, but here's this week's podcast. We have quite a few listener questions to get through - so thanks to everyone that sent in their questions. As always, Jake takes us through his stats of the week. And we look forward to Round 21. Thanks for listening - enjoy the weekend.
No Sydney, Perth and Victory? No worries. This week saw the first sharing of cookies as Jake and I both scored 112 points. We run through the usual Fantasy A-League topics including a listener question on which players are worth buying which most people are overlooking. Enjoy - see you next week.
Jake is back to cover Round 18 of the A-League and look forward to an important week of Fantasy A-League. Round 19 sees Sydney, Perth and Victory with a bye - so listen in to get all the stats so you can sort your team out. P.S - Jake bought cookies this week!
Just me (Cody) solo this week so a much shorter episode. I do my best to take you through the regular format, but I forgot to compile listener questions so apologies for that. Jake will be back next week - so until then.
Can Jake be stopped? He got a PB this week with 148 points while Cam, once again ends up with the least amount of points resulting in him buying the cookies. We cover all the usual topics this week, including the following listener questions: How to pick the right captain every week? Discuss the upcoming eliminator - starts round 18 Is Berisha an option for the bye coming up? Thanks for listening - see you next week!

We were a little late recording/uploading this week (on a Thursday), but here we are with Round 9 of the Fantasy A-League Podcast. As always we discuss how we went, some stats and we look forward to Round 10. Thanks to everyone who submitted questions. See you next week!
Here we go again - another week of Fantasy A-League. This week we have a bunch of listener questions to get through that were submitted via Instagram Stories. We review Round 8 and look ahead to Round 9. Jake gives us his stats and we both discuss some what trades (if any) we are looking to make. Enjoy.
Back for another Maclaren and McGree Fantasy League Podcast. It was a high scoring week for most with a lot of the most popular strikers/midfielders scoring well. As usual we go through a wrap of Round 7, look at some of the important Fantasy League stats and we look forward to Round 8 of the A-League.
Unfortunately Jake traded in Maclaren right before kickoff which means he took out the cookie bet. It was an entertaining round of football which left many happy (those who had Maclaren/McGree) and others frustrated (Cam). As always, we cover all the stats, team of the season, the trades we're looking at and much more. Thanks for listening - see you next week.
5 rounds in to the A-League and Jake is getting frustrated. Probably because I (Cody) am catching him, with only 19 points seperating us. Round 6 of the A-League provides many Fantasy Go-ers with personalle challenges with Perth, WSW and The Nix all having a bye while international juty also takes away many players. We get into the changes we are looking to make and also touch on Jake's stats for the week. Remember to join the conversation over on the Fantasy A-League Facebook Group.
How did you go this week? I (Cody) finally won a round and Jake had to buy me cookies. Listen for all things Fantasy A-League.
We are back to talk about Round 3 of the A-League and how it impacted our Fantasy teams. We also look forward to Round 4 and talk about who you should be looking to keep/trade. Sooooo go listen.
We are back to discuss everything Fantasty A-League for round 2. Who won the cookie bet? How our teams went and where we are sitting in the league Questions from the Facebook Group How you can make some $$ over the next couple of weeks Jake's fantasy stats Who you should be looking to trade in and out Thanks for listening - see you next week!
I (Cody) nearly deleted the Fantasy League after Round 1. Not only did I perform terribly, Jake topped our league out of 185 teams, the new guy at work came in 2nd and Russ (the other work colleague) is in 21st while I’m down in 132nd. Very disappointing. Elrich let me down. Meier let me down. The A-League let me down. Anyway. 28 rounds to go. I’ll be back. In this podcast Jake and I discuss Round 1 of the A-League through the lense of Fantasy Football. We talk about: How our teams went (and the result of the cookie bet) Which players we are keeping an eye on The best performing players in Round 1 What trades (if any) are we making Who are the players being traded in and out the most across the board Who we think will win in Round 2 And we also answer some questions from the Fantasy A-League Facebook Group. Thanks for playing - goodluck in Round 2! Please someone beat Jake.

This is it, the last show of the year. We briefly recap last weeks 2 FFA Cup games, but the bulk of the show is dedicated to a ‘year in review’ type discussion. Jake has put together some stats that we think a lot of you will find very interesting. At the start of the show we mentioned a great fundraising cause for Maroochydore FC’s Premier Mens Goalkeeper Tim Cornthwaite. We haven’t asked for anything this year in terms of sponsorship, advertising or money, so this is our one ask this year. If you’re in a position to help please check out Tim and his families Go Fund Me Page - https://www.gofundme.com/help-out-tim-cornthwaite Thanks for following along. Jake will be expanding the TPO Rankings in the off season, so if you’d like to see any particular league in the Rankings, let us know - Jake is susceptible to pressure! See you all in 2019.
