2018 NRL Dream Team Virtual Sports/Sports Deck (VSDT) Part 1

610 with 4 to play. Going to drop ranks this week. Lots of people will be hurt by injuries, but enough people will escape them and score well.

Tohu going down didn't help at all.

Playing Lodge and Rochow over Fifita and Murray has been a big killer.
JT as SJ replacement wasn't too bad in the end.

555 from 12 inc captain. Macca Duffy Harris killing me

Panic stations here as I cannot log in to Sports Deck dont know whats happened here 4am so hope its their end not mine?

Well looks like its at their end then , thx RnT , I have had issues with them in the past.

FWIW I think I was at about 550 with 8 to play. (c) already gone. Heading for ~900 and have missed the carnage yet again!

Top 2 teams in for a horrible round from what I can see so looking like a good week.

No worries. Hopefully they fix it before the start of the rounds!

Has anyone been able to log in?

I’m guessing it is just a glitch and will sort itself out soon enough. Bring on the next 2 games now though, should make things very interesting

Did you see how 3rd & 4th were tracking as well mate?

Who have you got left to play today? I hope we can log on again by time the games kick off

Third is having a good round, but not as good as us.

Not sure about 4th.

Basically to go well this week you need to avoid Lodge, Rochow, Harris to name a few. A couple of these top guys are playing Hiku as their 3rd WFB too.

Looks like everyone up top brought in Taumalolo too this week.

I'd say by the end of this round there will be 5 of us all within 100 of first. Just my pick

I've got Merrin JFH Kikau Maloney Taupau Turbo DCE & Fifita left - if I could get 350 from that lot I'd crack 900 from memory.

Site is up and running again. Managed to avoid the worst of it. Only Lodge really disappointing in my 17. 736 with JTurbo, Fifita (hopefully) and Kikau to play.

Phew thought I had messed up my password and email somehow, RTS and ET my disappointments, didnt see the game was ET only a HIA? Might be without Surgess but still have Murray for cover.
614 with Capt JTurbo, Kikau, Edwards and JFH.

RTS is starting to become a worry but will stick solid.

I can't seem to do a thing right in this comp this year. Out of 7 rounds, I've had 5 captains score in the 20's and 30's. This week happened to be Crichton. I've never had so many scores each and every week in the 0-30's category. That's the game so I've got a lot of work to do................................

I have Capt. JTurbo not looking good so far.

Bring on next week! Hopefully we start getting some injured players back so we don’t have to play muppets in our starting sides

812 this week. Could have been worse

Sadly did the same.

Worse still it was a toss up between JTurbo and Cook.

Didn't even crack 700 in the end. My worst score for a long time in this game and will fall way behind now.

Hey guys, I've been keeping an eye on the top 3 so FYI:

1st (prior to this round) - Traded Lodge and Griffin for Smith and Gos - Looks like he had a pretty bad round ~780 (included Harris, Rochow [who it looks like he played for Murray], Isaako, JTrbo, Ttrbo, DCE but also Fifita, Matterson, Cook, Taumalolo, Kikau, Arrow).

2nd - Traded Gallen and Winterstien for Taumalolo and Coote - scored ~850 (incldes Hess, Kikau, Arrow, Matterson, but also Harris, DCE, JTrbo, Hiku).

3rd - Traded Lodge and Sami for Sio and Taumalolo - scored ~830 (includes Matterson, Fifita, Arrow, Cook, Taumalolo, but he captained JTrbo, and played Havili, Chrichton, DCE, Hiku, and did not play Ken Sio.

I scored 891 so closed the gap in first by 120 points. Have pretty big concerns over my Manly contingent though... But gonna have to hope they come right.

872 for me, could have been heaps worse for sure. Manly players were scary bad, hopefully that game was just a once off, but can’t help but wonder how much of this off field stuff is messing with them all?

Any trades jumping out this week for everyone? Some cows are peaking way to early...

Yeah, it's gonna be a tough week for trades. Like you say, a bunch of players peaking in price. I honestly don't know right now.
