  Hey kids, welcome back to another
• 0:05
  episode of Old Man Play CFL
• 0:07
  Fantasy. Hey, I'm in the
• 0:09
  playoffs, managed to
• 0:12
  win over Cooper Trooper 42 I
• 0:15
  believe, which I think is.
• 0:19
  Ryan Cooper from the CFC
• 0:20
  Countdown, I
• 0:23
  beat him by about five points. He's way
• 0:25
  up in the standings and I had I think
• 0:28
  98 point. Three and he
• 0:30
  had 95 pointsomething, so right in that
• 0:33
  or 93 point something so right in that
• 0:34
  five point range. And as a reward I'm in
• 0:37
  the playoffs and guess who I play? Cooper
• 0:39
  Drooper, 42. So it's tough to win
• 0:42
  twice in a row. First round,
• 0:45
  who knows? Am I on a run or
• 0:48
  one and done? I don't know.
• 0:51
  Ah, at least I'm there. So the this
• 0:54
  week we don't have a lot of games to talk
• 0:56
  about Saskatchewan and Ottawa is an
• 0:58
  interesting 1 Saskatchewan has.
• 1:01
  Campbell still out on the one corner and
• 1:04
  Sales is a game time decision on the
• 1:06
  other corner. Now we all saw what
• 1:08
  happened with Montreal when they had
• 1:11
  to play without their two starting
• 1:13
  corners. They've also
• 1:15
  released Kosyanaka and
• 1:18
  moved Rivas back to safety
• 1:21
  and I think put Antoine Brooks the third.
• 1:23
  I think it is in at the Sam linebacker.
• 1:26
  So lots of changes back there. And you
• 1:29
  got Drew Brown, who the first game
• 1:30
  against them. Through for over 400
• 1:33
  yards and a loss, so he might be a good
• 1:36
  choice. And then of course Harris,
• 1:39
  I might stay away from him a little bit
• 1:41
  just because he hasn't had
• 1:44
  the the greatest of games lately.
• 1:47
  Teams seem to be learning how to play the
• 1:49
  opening Saskatchewan quarter. They
• 1:52
  they know Saskatchewan is going to run
• 1:53
  the ball and then throw a slant or a curl
• 1:55
  for first down and they've started
• 1:57
  figuring that out so. I'd be.
• 2:01
  Careful about going too much there. If
• 2:04
  you do want to go with Brown, a couple of
• 2:06
  well, it's your standard choices. Addison
• 2:09
  might be your best choice to team up with
• 2:12
  him, but on the other hand, you've also
• 2:14
  got Hardy and maybe Louis.
• 2:17
  for Saskatchewan. You've got Keyshawn.
• 2:20
  Johnson is averaging about 72
• 2:22
  yards a game on 56
• 2:25
  catches, so there are some points to be
• 2:28
  had there. Myers doesn't get so many
• 2:30
  catches, but good yardage. He's averaging
• 2:32
  55. I think I'd stay there and then
• 2:34
  endless in his second game back.
• 2:39
  He's averaging about 30 yards a game, but
• 2:40
  he's been out so much and I have a
• 2:42
  feeling that we're going to start seeing
• 2:44
  him pick up, so I might go that way.
• 2:47
  Then we get on to Hamilton
• 2:49
  and.
• 2:52
  Toronto, yes, sorry, old man's
• 2:55
  a little confuddled to day. So
• 2:58
  Hamilton, of course. I mean really,
• 3:00
  there's not too many quarterbacks to
• 3:02
  avoid. Bow is usually
• 3:05
  good. He had a bad week last week, but
• 3:06
  I'm sure he's gonna bounce back and the
• 3:09
  usual suspects there, Lawler, Smith,
• 3:12
  White are all good to team him up with.
• 3:16
  And then in Toronto we have. Our buckle
• 3:18
  should be in again and so Herslow
• 3:21
  is an absolute lock for me. Other ones
• 3:24
  that are worth looking at?Well,
• 3:27
  Mattel, Brissette and
• 3:30
  Unger still gets like 42 yards a game,
• 3:33
  so as a lower price option, he might be
• 3:36
  worth while. And of course, like I said,
• 3:38
  our buckle, when he's on, he's well worth
• 3:41
  doing it. And then we get to the last one
• 3:43
  where we've got BC and Calgary now.
• 3:47
  Calgary, VA has been off, but you never
• 3:49
  know when he's gonna come back. So
• 3:51
  depending on how adventurous you feel,
• 3:53
  maybe you want to go there. And then if
• 3:54
  you're gonna do that, Rhymes gets
• 3:57
  about 5051 yardsa
• 3:59
  game. And
• 4:01
  really, that's, you know, the rest are a
• 4:03
  hash. They're all Philpott, Jones,
• 4:06
  Barnes. They're all around about 30 yards
• 4:08
  a game. On the BC side,
• 4:11
  if Katoi's back, he might be a good value
• 4:13
  option. And I think Hatcher and Mcinnis
• 4:16
  at this point have to be a lock,
• 4:18
  and frankly, Nathan, I
• 4:21
  think has to be a lock with his
• 4:24
  ability to both run the ball in and
• 4:26
  pass it. So that's
• 4:29
  about the week, and I'm going to keep
• 4:32
  doing these just so you know, through the
• 4:34
  season. But I may be done with the
• 4:36
  podcast league next week.
• 4:39
  Where's my optimism? Heck, I'm gonna I'll
• 4:42
  be in the second round. We're goin for
• 4:44
  the belt.
• 4:47
  So OK, let's fire up fantasy on the old
• 4:50
  computer here and see what we can find
• 4:52
  for a team.
• 4:54
  Here we go, I said. I wanted to start
• 4:56
  with Nathan Roark. And then I
• 4:58
  wanted to put in.
• 5:02
  Definitely Keon Hatcher.
• 5:05
  And.
• 5:08
  Mckinnis here. And
• 5:11
  Herslow.
• 5:13
  so now that gets interesting. We've got
• 5:16
  those filled out so I've got to see what
• 5:17
  I can get for running back and
• 5:20
  defences and not a lot of money left
• 5:22
  over. Let's see 12K so.
• 5:26
  Select a defence and let's see by price
• 5:29
  here and who's the cheapest of them
• 5:32
  all. A lot of our red blacks at
• 5:35
  4.04.5 for
• 5:38
  Hamilton. Well, let's go with Ottawa.
• 5:41
  OK, now running backs. So
• 5:44
  that means we've got about 8K to spend on
• 5:47
  running backs,
• 5:48
  Johnny Augustine for 2.8.
• 5:49
  Hemay get a point here or
• 5:52
  there, so let's put him in. And that
• 5:55
  leaves me now. How much do I have
• 5:57
  5.4?So.
• 6:01
  but Bertrand Houdon is the the
• 6:04
  backup this time. Oh, and I cannot quite
• 6:06
  afford him. Oh dear
• 6:09
  , 5.5 and I've got 5.4, so can I
• 6:12
  save anywhere here?
• 6:14
  I'm going to have to pick a 2.51 OK?
• 6:18
  So out of the two point fives, who's got
• 6:20
  the best chance of maybe getting in
• 6:23
  there? Hmm.
• 6:25
  go with. Chalquette
• 6:27
  in. Calgary and hope that he
• 6:30
  gets he spells off Mills for a
• 6:33
  while.
• 6:34
  I'm taking a real chance here.
• 6:37
  On. I am
• 6:40
  taking a real chance here on my running
• 6:42
  backs. Chances are I may get.
• 6:48
  So I'm spending eight on the running
• 6:49
  backs. That means I need to get about
• 6:51
  14 points out of them, probably
• 6:54
  12 to 14 to have be in around
• 6:57
  the 100 point range. That's going to be
• 6:59
  tough with these two, but the others are
• 7:01
  all strong enough. I think that's what
• 7:03
  I'm going with. So here's the team
• 7:06
  . Defence is the Ottawa Red Blacks,
• 7:08
  quarterback is BCS Nathan Rourke
• 7:11
  running backs. Thomas Bertrand Houdon
• 7:14
  from Saskatchewan. And
• 7:16
  shaquette. I believe it's pronounced
• 7:18
  from. Calgary and my
• 7:21
  wide receivers, Keon Hatcher and just
• 7:24
  Mckinnis, both from BC. My flex
• 7:26
  is Jumpin Jake Herslow out of Toronto.
• 7:30
  We'll make Nathan the captain.
• 7:33
  And lock it in.
• 7:36
  So that's it. That's my picks. Comes with
• 7:38
  the usual caveat. If you're going to use
• 7:41
  them, do so at your own peril.
• 7:44
  I am doing fairly well, but.
• 7:47

• 7:49

• 7:51
