Coach Talk

Sydney Koalas
Kudos on assembling a lineup that won by 17.48 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done. We should keep this momentum going as we step into our Week 10 matchup.
Stream team
Trust me on this one, Stream team... Coming from a coach who's lived life on the hot seat: if this whole "fantasy football GM" thing doesn't work out, you can always fall back on that gritty Assistant Coaching job available at the local high school down the road!
