    So wrong to come in and offer a sound, logical explanation rather than a wild baseless allegation.



    Hey, my allegations may be wild and baseless, but aren’t they the best type?

    So, 27% of teams in the top 1000 have no trades left.

    Here I've bucketed it up by 100s

    Here's a different way of looking at it,  what percentage of teams less than or equal to the rank on the x axis have no trades left:

    That's brilliant - You're a star!

    It fits with the psychology of going hard at the top and trying to hold on with cover for that last month

    So Brandon Smith's try scoring run came to an aburpt end once I traded him in and now I'm trading in Murray who's scored in each of his last four games.

    You're welcome.

    Jackson is pretty tempting too with half of the Bulldogs pack out for a few weeks. His workload is already pretty high, not sure if it goes any higher though.

    EDIT: Hit the fuck it button. Didn't have any dogs players... welcome to the team JJ!

    Good call. Probably can’t go wrong with any of the 3. Depends who scores the most tries and doesn’t get injured

    Not sure who the Brixton Steelers are, but well done. Basketball

    I was 3rd highest over all points scorer for L7 and didn't get anywhere near the top 8.
    A quick review of the year showed of the 12 games I lost, 9 times my opponent was in the top 3 scorers of that round.
    Talk about consistency from all my opponents !!

    Thanks mate. Seems low but given the circumstances it's actually quite high I think.

    I'm not a massive fan of Damian Cook's 1990's revival goatee, can I put in a request that some 'post production' work is done on the banner jocolor

    Is Cini likely to see some game time for the rest of the year? Bit of bench action? Need 7k to fund Gus > Muz and would love to seize this opportunity and fuck Roberts (No) off into oblivion out of my team

    You'd be a brave one to think a player that got a 24 minute bench role has a secure spot after not making the team for the prior 3 months.

    That being said, stranger things have happened?

    Good win mate. Congrats on the shape you've got your team in at the right end of the season.  We all know the effort you put it.  I have to admit being salty that you beat me.  

    Not sure why your post was downvoted.  Poor form I reckon.  

    Thanks mate. I’m sure you’ll beat me next time you’re great at this game!

    Just read on Buzz's twitter that JWH is set to be rested this weekend as Robbo revealed he has been carrying a broken finger, injured knee and back strain for a few weeks.

    This could be SST's chance to finally put up some decent scores if anyone still ownes him...

    I really thought I'd be able to have a trade going into the final rounds but apparently not

    Probably going to use last 2 trades on CHN (assuming still benched) & Crichton. Probably just going to get Cook + Jackson. If I get Murray instead I'd be limited to 671k & below

    Still would leave pretty good team with cover in every position (except when I needed it to be good last week)

    Cook
    Haas IPap Lolo
    Fifita Jackson
    Cleary DCE
    Averillo Peachey
    Turbo Teddy Latrell

    Schuster Gamble McCullough Walsh
    Blore Watson Verrills Chambers

    I'd just spend 1 trade and get someone a little cheaper like Jackson/Matterson or the vast array of guns around that price if you don't need EDG/MID

      Current date/time is Mon May 20, 2024 3:24 am
