Eliminator is a luck game mate, so keep riding yours haha! There are some big scores being pumped out each week now though, so even the overall climb is tough going huh

Yeah I was surprised I lasted this long to be fair, and the guy I was playing went absolutely huge, so good on him. Ha thanks for the overall luck, hopefully I keep scoring about the same as the other top 5 each week and I avoid too many more injuries

Im already salivating at the prospect of playing this next season and learning from my mistakes...but im happy with how ive gone given my current rank is the best ive been ranked all season and if i can sneak into top 200 i'll be content. Sounds like you and some others on this site are really good at this game which is awesome. I cant wait to be in a league next season!

I may have said this before but im more into AFL (and NFL) rather than NRL but i find NRL Fantasy/SC/RDT is more fun to play than their AFL counterparts. I wouldnt say ive had a great season in any format of NRL fantasy this season but ive still thoroughly enjoyed it and cant wait to go again next year.

As for now, im out of trades so i think ill struggle to stay afloat in the eliminator but im just happy to have made it this far

We're into the endgame now that's for sure. Great to see People still in the Eliminator!

3 trades left for me, Elliott to Murray for sure right?

Yep congrats to all doing well in overall and the eliminator.

I'm trading Lolo to Murray this week, which pretty much completes my team (better late than never).

Can someone remind me how the captaincy/vice-captaincy works in this comp?

I've got 19 players I'd be happy to put in my 17 (18 this week if Tapine doesn't play). If I pick a VC early in the weekend who goes large (eg Munster), do I then sub out my captain (eg Cook, Murray, Hynes) for a NPR (and not get his score)? Or can I keep him (or put a reserve on him) and just sub in an NPR for another player?

Sorry if not clear...

Basically you have to put an NPR red dot into your 13 and put the C on them. You will then get an AE from your lowest scoring, non-red dot NPR

Who are people captaining this week?

I'm looking at Cook and Hynes atm.

Those are the two I'm currently on ST.

Good stuff SD. That makes it unanimous so far. ;-)

Hynes Captain

Most likely Hynes captain for me as well. I am replacing May with Saab off my bench and will cross my fingers that he can get over the line at least once against the Titans!

My eliminator opponent has all of Cleary, May & Tapine so im hoping they dont have any trades left and have to play the likes of Mam in their 17. Although, even then im a bit worried about Mam going large against the knights

Tonight ive got Munster & Edwards vs Yeo, To'o & Api. Would be nice if my 2 players could equal those 3, but maybe that is wishful thinking

Dunno whether to trade May or just play Tass. Want to get Murray in so don't necessarily want to waste a second trade

Thanks for this Stu, my only scoring NPR is probably going to be Edwards, so I'll be able to see his score first before taking the captaincy off Hynes.

how many trades left? I got Murray this week but was suprised to see his scoring in this comp not as good as for NRL fantasy.

Burton is a good VC choice.

3 trades left. Murray would be coming in for Elliott if I do bring him in

May becomes Saab who could score anything. My opponent has Cleary, May & Tapine to deal with so if they are out of trades i think they'll have to play Mam in their 17. Not the worst option given the matchup. Will know more after partial lockout tonight and as the round progresses.

You've lost Edwards!

seems like an upgrade, and from the looks you've got a bit of depth to deal with any injuries on top of the two trades you'll have left.

not sure if it is last week's team i'm looking at, but did you still have May in your CTRs?
