Tropical FPL

Two lads, Danny and Ryan, talking all things football and FPL—offering advice that might be genius or downright shocking! Danny’s a die-hard Spurs fan, using this podcast as free therapy (because, let’s be honest, supporting Spurs isn’t easy). Ryan? Well, he’s convinced the world’s out to get him, but that only fuels the banter. Originally from England, the boys now call sunny tropical Cairns home, where they coach junior and senior teams in the local football scene.

  1. 46

    Gameweek 32 : Chips, Doubles, Blanks, Hell

    With some unexpected results in the cup, the boys wildcard plans have gone up in flames. Arsenal, West Ham and Everton would've all been juicy but now... who knows! There is a lot of exasperated swearing in this one, be prepared. And hopefully we are feeling a bit better by the end of this one...

  2. 45

    Gameweek 30-31 : Richy to the rescue

    Ryan just keeps on moving in the right direction, he's seriously challenging for overall winner of FPL! He has a potential game busting plan with his thoughts on the blank this week. With a flurry of chips expected soon, it's time to knuckle down and focus...

  3. 44

    Gameweek 29-30 : Planning for the run-in

    With some interesting blanks and doubles on the horizon the boys dive in. Wolves on the march, will they catch Spurs? And Magnificent Murray is living up to his name...

  4. 43

    Gameweek 27-28 : Wilson's the money, baby

    The boys did ok, green arrows baby. Big chats about the best £5.5m - £6.5m midfielders, seems to be a busy zone at the moment. And is it time to drop the Arsenal double at the back?

  5. 42

    Gameweek 26-27 : Rayan for Ryan

    Ryan is on fire at the moment - find out what he's planning. Also on the pod: Are Arsenal bottling it for real this time? Who to pick from Bournemouth? Is the honeymoon over for Man U? Does a new Spurs manager mean there's a Spurs pick? (Spoiler: the answer to the last one is a big NO)

  6. 41

    Gameweek 24-25 : Arsenal Corners zzz...

    We have a double gameweek on the horizon and Ryan is excited to say the least. Bournemouth are back in business and have a few picks. Can Man U keep the good vibes going? And do we need to start thinking more about Liverpool?

  7. 40

    Gameweek 23-24 : Haaland Forever?

    The Premier League is warming up, there's a title race back on and a number of teams who could be dragged into a relegation scrap. The fixture swing is here and Chelsea and Man United with new managers are peaking our interest...Join the Tropical T-Shirt League with code x68oq7 - win manager of the month for a Tropical FPL exclusive Tee!

  8. 39

    Gameweek 22-23 : Can't have a striker who wears high heels

    Ryan is looking to bounce back after a difficult week and possibly has a very cheeky differential up his sleeve. Dan is ticking along and trying to stay calm. The fixtures are about to turn for a few important players so there's lots going on. Follow us on Insta - @tropicalfpl

  9. 38

    Gameweek 21-22 : The Man U and Chelsea Mystery

    The boys are back after a hectic holiday period. FPL is more addictive than ever. There are a few budget forwards that are catching the eye, only a few real template players, and all our chips are back in play. Even if you've been struggling, there is still hope and we're here to help!

  10. 37

    Gameweek 15-16 : DEEP DIVE Mo Madness and AFCON

    The boys are back just in time for the big AFCON transfer scramble. With 5 free transfers burning a hole in everyone's pockets they dissect the options, it's a must listen this week for sure!

  11. 36

    Gameweek 12-13 : Dewsbury Hauuuuullllllll

    Both the boys are off the back of a decent FPL week and feeling upbeat. Liverpool and Chelsea are still confusing everyone but we know we can rely on Arsenal. Ryan's hit the wildcard and Danny is nearly there on the triple cap. And could Pep roulette be a thing of the past?

  12. 35

    Gameweek 11-12 : DEEP DIVE International Break Edition

    The boys go in hard on every team for the upcoming games. Fixture swings and AFCON issues are around the corner, there's a lot to think about. And just when you think you've got it sorted, is this the week to captain against the robot?

  13. 34

    Gameweek 10-11: Eddie Murphy, Newcastle Legend

    A quick one from the boys as they're heading out on the booze! Ryan is still on the march and Dan is struggling. The Arsenal defence just keep on delivering and is Salah back?

  14. 33

    Gameweek 9-10: Imagine not having an Arsenal defender

    The boys are back after Dan's Greek Odyssey. Ryan has been flying high while Dan has been kept afloat by a couple of cheap defender hauls...

  15. 32

    Gameweek 6-7 : No more expensive defenders

    Dan's bench boost wasn't great, Ryan's triple captain was. Chips are getting thrown about left, right and centre, and the season is really warming up. Chelsea and Forest are in a right state but is the tide turning for Aston Villa and maybe even West Ham?

  16. 31

    Gameweek 5-6 : Man U's Baldy Beardo's

    Magnificent Murray is a Grand Final champ! He's had a successful weekend and you can hear it in his voice. He's not doing too bad at FPL either. The Salah debate rages on, Semenyo is a god and is every Crystal Palace player a pick?!

  17. 30

    Gameweek 4-5 : Kevin!

    Ryan sneaked in a free hit! Fulham are getting more and more interesting, who benefits from the return of Big Ange, and is the Salah star starting to wane? Join the Tropical T Shirt League - code is x68oq7

  18. 29

    Gameweek 4 : Transfer window and the future

    The international break is boring so the boys go over the late transfers from the transfer window and their plans for the next gameweek and beyond... You can still join the Tropical T-Shirt League, code is x68oq7

  19. 28

    Gameweek 3-4 : Greedy Semenyo or Generous Grealish?

    As the transfer deadline looms large, the boys look back on the weekend's games and discuss the merits of wildcarding during the international break. Dan has already pulled the trigger, Ryan is questioning it, after a lovely week for him. You can still join the Tropical T-Shirt League - league code is x68oq7

  20. 27

    Gameweek 2-3 - Salah returns at the death again

    Fresh off the back of watching Newcastle's heartbreak against Liverpool, the boys go through the weekend's games. Bruno puts a penalty in The Thames, Rice will get points from everything, Newcastle's full backs, and much more...

  21. 26

    Gameweek 1-2 - Is it over for Wirtz?!

    We're under way and absolutely buzzing! Is it possible to only spend £20m on your whole defence? Is Wirtz rubbish? How long can you go without Salah and/or Haaland? The boys get stuck in to the burning questions after the first gameweek of the season...

  22. 25

    Pre-Season part VII - Final(ish) drafts and final thoughts

  29. 18

    End of Season Awards 2024-25

    The boys reflect on their seasons, one of them is pleased, one of them is pleased it's over. They discuss the highs and lows as well as who delivered and who let us down this season...

  30. 17

    Gameweek 37-38 Big Ange trophy AND table bonus?!

    For the penultimate pod of the season the boys go a little bit different. Obviously Danny has to talk a bit about Spurs finally getting a trophy. They discuss which teams are still playing for something and who to target on what's likely to be a high scoring final day. The Isak situation is key...

  31. 16

    Gameweek 36-37 Ryan is a Cherry

    Both the boys are having a pretty strong finish to the season. Spurs and Man United are basically not playing in the league any more. Haaland is back, who's got the bottle (and cash) to get him in?

  32. 15

    Gameweek 35-36 THE RUN-IN baby!

    It's the run-in! Three games to go, no doubles, no blanks, just pure FPL joy and/or misery. Danny finally has to play his assistant manager and has some big decisions. Strangely, Ryan seems very relaxed. Let's finish strong...

  33. 14

    Gameweek 34-35 The Southampton revival is NOW!

    We're back for the run-in and Ryan has finally had a decent week! With a lot of people free-hitting it's an interesting week, hopefully your differential did the business. Looking forward, which teams have the motivation to keep going?

  34. 13

    Gameweek 31-32 The Jacob Murphy Scandal

    Newcastle are looking unstoppable with a tasty double coming up, is anyone leaving out Isak? Rotation is causing headaches with big European games all over the place. It's the business end of the season and it's a chip minefield, use them wisely...

  35. 12

    Gameweek 29-30 (part 2) Ryan's got all the stories

    The Tropical T-Shirt League is LIVE - league code 8texj1 - join before the deadline to be in with a chance of winning a banging TFPL classic tee!With the FA Cup quarters done the boys go through chip strategy for the run-in.

  37. 10

  38. 9

    Gameweek 28-29 Time for Ryan to Wildcard for his sanity?

    Danny is chugging along and Ryan needs a change/miracle, so it might be time to drop the wildcard. In other news, is Robinson a scam? Will Haaland ever be worth the money again? And Billy El Khannouss is the man of the moment!

  39. 8

    Gameweek 27-28 Cunha stole the kit man's glasses!

    As Ryan plunges deeper and deeper into FPL darkness he's surprisingly upbeat. Meanwhile, Danny has had his plans upended by a crazy Brazilian. They've both got work to do and it's going to be a big thinker with the blank on the horizon...

  40. 7

    Gameweek 26-27 - No-one can handle Wood, he's a giant!

    It's fair to say Villa and Liverpool proved us wrong and Arsenal's bottlers let a lot of people down. Ryan's risky captain pick was a massive failure, so next gameweek he's captaining the most out of form player in the league. Wolves fixtures are tasty and is Bowen a sneaky pick for the rest of the season?

  41. 6

    Gameweek 25-26 - Liverpool's slump incoming?

    Danny's down on Villa, Ryan's down on Liverpool, are either of us right?! Every week we want Delap, how does he keep eluding us? And, dare we say, we're getting good at the dark horses and the clowns...

  42. 5

    Gameweek 24-25 - But... It's Man United

    Join us as we analyse each club's January transfer window, there wasn't much transfer action but could be a few sneaky gems. Woody is a stallion, is Rashford's redemption incoming, and can Mathys Tel Spurs the story they want to hear?

  43. 4

    BONUS Chip Strategy

    At this vital time of the season geekboy Ryan has done a bit of a dive into what we need to be thinking about regarding our chips. Hopefully you all still have a few left!

  44. 3

    Gameweek 23-24 - Get Moyesy In!

    Fresh from watching the Sunday night horror show at Tottenham we're here to dissect the weekend's games, Haaland and co are back in business, Big Bad Bry with some penalty madness and Bournemouth are class...

  45. 2

    Gameweek 22-23 - Year of The Donkey

    We're back after a couple of months of Ryan finding himself (and being terrible at FPL).  Who are we looking at for 2025 and there's a double coming up!
