Confirmed - Harry Barnett the new shit ruck-man league bike

 

[Bowski]

Lemme know if you guys aren't able to put the trade through in Keeper, it should be working.

 

[Freo_4eva]

We can do that? Where on the site do i go ?

 

[Freo_4eva]

think i got it - but it says future pick trading is only part of the pro licence? I mean, 2026 is technically in the future lol

Yeah I tried this morning and then again post update but still unable to trade ‘26 draft picks even though they are for the upcoming draft.

 

[Bowski]

Ah I see, I just tried putting one through and got the same. Got my hopes up when it showed the picks as an option. Well the trade is noted and I will update accordingly when able.

 

[Zim^zuM]

Lifeline incoming.

Wellington Wise Guys trade their 4th round pick for Harry Barnett

Freo_4eva

Would have given a 3th round pick

 

[Wise Guy Sam]

Would have given a 3th round pick

I’ll consider your 2rd for him.

My intentions are once again to finish 1st in the h&a season then lose in the prelim for a better draft position

 

[Freo_4eva]

Intention to embrace mediocrity once again

 

[Northern Dogs]

Looking for a rise up the ranks (just like I was last year, but didn't happen)

 

[Jordie_tackles]

I think I can win twice as many games in 2026 as 2025!

 

[Go Balls Deep]

I am keen to get into it and attempt to move up the ladder!!

Count me in as always.

Like some others, i'm expecting a newborn in January, so I'll do my best to be around when it matters.

 

[Matthew Jelley]

Congrats mate, it's going to be a sleep deprived league

Congrats mate, it's going to be a sleep deprived league

Maybe we're all growing up and we'll have a father-son/daughter league by 2040.

 

[Matthew Jelley]

Sat at my kitchen table on draft day with a few mates this year with my 1 year old sitting next to me watching

[Zim^zuM]

Dodged a huge bullet with N.Martin

 

[Wise Guy Sam]

deeman87 Bowski be a dear and jump on keeper and hit the big old activate league button please.

Done, thanks for the heads up.

I can't appoint co-commisioners myself so that will need to wait a tad.

 

[Northern Dogs]

Done, thanks for the heads up.

Im still available to assist where required.

 

[Bowski]

Quick update, amigos

Matthew Jelley has kindly offered to help out and will be given commish access shortly. Big thanks as well to everyone else who put their hand up to assist during the draft — it really speaks to the quality of this league, and I genuinely appreciate it.

On another note, I reached out to NoPositiveTests! around six weeks ago and haven’t had a response. Given their last BigFooty login was March 16, we may need to start thinking about a potential coaching change.

My initial thought is to set January 12 as a cutoff date, but I’m very open to suggestions. They were actively making team changes throughout the season, so I’m hesitant to move too quickly — at the same time, I’d like to give any incoming coach enough runway to make adjustments and help maintain strong engagement across the league.

If there’s no response by our agreed date, we’ll proceed with the change.

Bugsy Mogues — as you’re first on the waitlist, would you be interested in stepping into the coach’s chair if it becomes available?
