NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 84 - Spendng our last trade on a CTR

Pacey's team came 9th and I assume thought he was in for an easy W to proceed in the finals. I almost want to apologise for beating him, but hey...the Bludgers finally pulled their proverbial out from where the sun don't shine to start scoring well. (Maybe I should re-name my team the Bulldogs )

Pacey is the bloke that does the late mail threads. Doing the lord's work.

Hey Bludger, that's me mate. I was confident before the round started, but you had a couple of players that went over and above and I had players who should not have shown up. ( I mean you Lomax). But that's the way it goes mate so definitely don't apologise as you deserve that win. Best of luck next week.

I have never in my life heard of a referee checking with the bunker to make sure the kicker hasn't moved the tee forward for a shot.

Thanks for the kind words Filth and Wolfking.

Looked like bicep injury for Nikorima

Jazz going backwards since he came back on, ffs

Fuck yeah Sharkies Hooooolllldddd please.

Spud I'm equal 4th with is also on track to pick the round and took Warriors.

Missed the full round yet again and 1 point off 1000

You better be having a great last few weeks. I picked you over me!

Think the run probably ends here. I've had some shockers with POD injuries in the back half of the year with SJ x2, Koro x2, AFB and Munster x2 missing games after being trade ins. If I went with JTurbo, Tevaga and Fifita I'd be 2 trades and a chunk of points better off

Final score for me is 835, absolute garbage week for me, and my worst one since the resumption in terms of round rank (24k for the round, 2088 overall, my first time outside the top 2k since round 6).

It would have been even worse if not for the valiant efforts of Wighton, Munster, NBrown and Averillo, who somewhat offset the garbage scores in my side (Lomax 9, Hammer 16, SCrichton 31, Mann 31, Fifita 41, Yeo 43). Captaining Teddy was a risk I was willing to take, though had I known that Randall and Talau were going to play, I might have played safe with Cleary and been 40 points better off.

Last week, 1134, lost ranks

This week, 935, gained ranks



Pretty happy as some of my more PODish players were well below par (Mann, McGuire, Hoppa) but I guess Biro 51 and Talau actually playing made up for it.

866 with 15 players isnt bad I guess. Hopefully saving the trades will pay off in my H2Hs

Nope, used my last two a couple weeks ago when Lolo got injured, was forced to use them to have 17 players. My team is:

Hunt
Carrigan, Fotu
Fifita, NBrown, Yeo
Cleary, Wighton
Lomax, Crichton
Ponga, Teddy, Papy

Tevaga, Munster, Welch, Mann

Averillo, HTF, Talau, Randall

[quote="wolfking"]A 948 takes me from 214 last week up to 190 this week pre updates today.  Might even out with updates as I had no one today.  Didn't expect to improve ranks with that score though. 

3 trades to play with now.  Lot's of options.[/quote


Well done seems par is around 935

957 gets a gain of 100 spots to rank 438. No trades left!
