    I hope ET takes it down but a bit early to say it's "locked up" when he's nine points ahead of second and it's pretty easy to trade from Grant to Robson. Second has Hynes as well so it's probably down to that.

    Rev's in there as well with his poddy team

    Well Fantasy wasn't great to me this week, felt like I was just hanging on by max trading, going to take a tiny step back and make sure I'm making the right trades

    Only 794 for me this week, was floating around 1400 which I was happy with, but now I'm 2520

    I have Haas/CNK/Walsh/E Katoa/Alamoti/Hammer/Miller all in my 17 this week - At least two of those are probable trade outs


    Is what it is, hopefully a nice big cow comes along this week

    Somehow made ground with an 856 despite carrying Host and Katoa. Must be some carnage out there. Score of 6969 Cool  (pray for no updates!) and a rank of 1785

    Great work EasyTiger! You're leading the monthly too, and that means dollars or merch. I'm 11th in that, and can see Booze and Beth in top 20 too.

    Revs sitting at 5th for the month ! Kfc ? lol

    883 pending, looks like I gained a few ranks to 128 even with Katoa and CNK in the last game but let’s see tomorrow. Still lost ground in the FOG though so fanatics are flying 🤘

    Sorry man was talking about Katoa, my bad for not explaining who I was referring to
    Ah all good mate, yeah if Katoa is only out for one round I probably hold for a bit - will have a big BE though, we'll see what TLW throws up.

    910 despite 6 players sub-40.

    Enough to move up to 124 overall. Not enough to win my L5 H2H

    969 to go with my earlier post of having 6969 points coming in to today. Strange times!

    Thanks, all for the congrats posts, it's much appreciated.

    The community here should all feel like they own a piece of helping someone get to rank one for however long it lasts (might only be an hour) - I've learnt a heck of a lot from the collective brilliant minds here - so chalk this one up to all the positive mentoring, reflections on lessons learned, groupthink with just a tiny little easytiger twist (and a dose of good fortune)

    Good night!

    921 with the up/down dates to come

    Funny how a great round always leaves you wanting more… rueing the not doing Katoa to Manu, especially as now I have CNK to deal with as well.

    so yeah maybe my best round rank in 2-3 seasons but was on a flyer before those two HIAs.

    On a non-fantasy note, missed the Dragons due to an extra u10 soccer training session but the result looks like one I should watch later at least.

    Fanatics carving up.

    More than halved my overall rank this week, only managed a 20% rank rise in the FOG

      Current date/time is Mon May 20, 2024 12:16 am
