Just realised your 2nd test points included the reserve two players in addition to the five that did play :oops:

Thought it seemed too good to be true. Fun while it lasted.

Mid-table is kind. I'm only two above Arthur...

I thought my all-Australian line-up would be doing better than that. Brad Haddin's woeful form is killing me.

I hate it when that happens. Sometimes I think I will be at the bottom and I end up in eighth. Life works in mysterious ways.
