now about 2000

Would think the competition would be easier at this rank. looks like I will be needing 950+ scores from here to climb the ranks

Well you are in the top 2% so yeah, you need to be 900+ a week lol or you'll wind up top 20%.

Gutherson POD to score 60 today in the halves

Gutherson! Keep him in the 5/8, Norman can fuck off.

I knew Gutherson would go well because I sold him this week. Didn't want to but I'll just rattle off what I was deciding between just to vent

The mind and logic plan to get points- Downgrade Asiata to Brad Parker, keep Gutherson, ET to Mannering.

The I'm fucked anyway let's get the players I want from the heart- Sell Gutherson for B Parker. ET to Gallen

I knew the first option would produce a lot more points but something within me just said I want somebody different. I want the G-Train instead of Manners and so I sacrificed a ton of points because it felt right. Doesn't feel too good now though

I freed the shackles from Michael Gordon before the last game and now he's making me look like an idiot

Micky G is on fire! Captain Merrin, not so much


Oh shit, and Cleary's having a shocker. He was so far down the list I forgot about him.

Cartwright try is great for my fantasy but 2 terrible decisions from thge ref for that try, it was never a knock on and then a decoy runner hits Robsons outside shoulder exactly the same as the no try for the eels in the first half

Cant understand why Gutherson wasnt switched to centre and Edwards 5/8. Too late now 3 tries through Scott

Mansour with 92 points....

Go milchow, sitting in first on MB, Decent effort too Shanbon.
Threw a last minute team in as well, been a good weekend

Stuck with Carty as captain and it didn't work! Decent games from Cleary, Gutherson, Gordon making up for it! Need to decide who I'm going to run out of Taylor/JTurbo for the final rounds

Well I sold Gutherson this week in a clanger (Albeit a mistake I willingly made) but I did sell J Turbo for Merrin last week so in that regards I'm #onestepahead
Had Merrin as captain too and 53's sufficient enough given the chaos of this week. Can't help but laugh at the Renegades guy Q & A who said he didn't see any concern with J Turbo given his last 5 game average of 50+ Well if you'd watched their matches you'd know he ain't getting the minutes and now the Sea Eagles have won back to back games then his minutes ain't likely to return anytime soon.

Mansour is a beast!! In everything.

Well sitting on 761 with JFriend, JBird, Barba and Mitchell to come.
Very happy with how things have gone with one game remaining, up 31 places to 45th overall

Going to make some interesting decisions if Gutherson remains in the halves and if Barba/Mitchell score well again this week.

Shanbon came 6th despite Hardaker's 0.

Almost any playing back and he could have won it (haven't really checked but not sure if there were any viable options at Hardaker's price)

My winning team was the 3rd of 3 teams I entered, and was a bit of an insurance team in case Melbourne bombed out. So got a bit lucky given so many Storm players scored well and I avoided all their backs.
Josh Mansour the hero I guess

Nice work Boozey, I am 665 with Friend, Mitchell, Matterson, SST and Manu to go. If Gutherson stays in the halves he might be worth keeping, question is who to cull to get get Tedesco in.

Mansour the greedy little let.

Well from a week where I started with only 13 green dots, the inclusions of Arrow's 52 and (C)unster's 48 - it turned out decent.

Nice score there, if things go alright 900 might be on for you

Wow, you're all killing it this week. I have had no late player inclusions like everyone else, so with stupid Fifita out I'll only have 14 this week. I was hoping this week would be fairly rough for everyone, but no such luck.

I'm only on 580 with 4 to go (which includes Copley).

499 with 4 to go lol I'm doing shithouse. Having that dud Milf, a shitty scoring cash-out and both my usual CTR's on the bye haven't helped.
