Everything going on in this rollercoaster of a Round…….from Grundy going large against the Dogs on Friday to our rookies struggling to get a touch all weekend. How’d your team end up?
SCORE / C / Overall Rank
2079/Grundy
Par?
2219/Cripps
Rookies + Oliver hurt this week, could have made some real ground
2133/ Grundy
Well below par me thinks, will lose a few spots in the ranking after that performance. Thought I was flying in the top 2500 rankings and then have to endure a round like that!!! How cruel can this game be sometimes.
2090/Sloane
*had a brain fade and thought i could vc sloane into cripps only to realise my loop hole was playing Saturday night :O
2271/Cripps/was ranked 1270.
TU it enough to break into the Top 1000 ?
TD Or is it only a par score?
2122/Neale
Was ranked 609 coming into the round, very disappointed this week, will likely drop a lot of places.
2250 / Neale / was 593
2200 looks about par this week after a pretty weird round. Still have managed to lose my first two rounds in LOEC3.
Forward rooks are killing me, with Setterfield, Drew and Parker all on field every week over Burgess and Petrecelle. Will be looking to get Kelly in cheap in the next couple weeks.
2123 Grundy
Lost 9/10 league games, one by a point & another by 5 points.
Only on field rookies with a decent score this week were Scrimshaw & Duursma. Hore & Collins on bench. 9 players under 70. I fear a big fall through the rankings.
Heroes – J Lloyd, Cripps, Grundy, Neale, Heeney & Whitfield
Villains – Danger, T Kelly, M Crouch, Oliver, Z Williams
Thankfully already qualified for SCT Cup.
2,172 / Cripps / TBA (was 5,317)
Not a great week, but given I had all of Kelly, Parker, and Petruccuelle on the field, it could have been a whole lot worse.
Update: now ranked 6,484.
2120/Neale
I feel like an absolute mong for holding onto Dunkley. Crisp as well has been a pain when I’m lacking a Whitfield in my team.
I’m way smarter than you Jov – I traded him last week………….. to Kelly!
Probably end up ok in the long run but I nearly choked when I saw Kelly’s score.
2276/Crippa
hopefully not a bad score, considering some unusual scores from a lot of players this round.
Guns:
Grundy
Cripps
Heeney
Rockliff
Walsh
Sicily:
Not so good:
Dangerfield
Oliver.
Nice rookie scores (if u fielded them)
Hore 86
Wilkie 110
Scrimshaw 101
Scored 2199 this week
Will I go up or down the rankings (currently 13k)
TU: up
TD: down
Definitely up. 2199 looks comfortably above-par this week, and at this time of year, even a par score can get you up in the rankings, as the midprice-madness teams that tend to do well for the first few weeks start crashing back to earth.
Having said that, I only scored 27 points less than that and dropped a bit over 1000 places, so I may have spoken too soon.
2,079 / cripps
Even captain cripps couldn’t save this disaster! One of my worst rounds in memory. Every bad rookie on field with Kelly, Oliver and dunkley spudding it up for icing on the cake.
Need to think long and hard on trades this week to get me back in the game! Will likely fall below 20k rank which is not ideal
2316/ Cripps
Win 9/10 leagues
Needed this score last week to get into SCT Cup but should increase rank from 14000 mark.
Dusty to Boak instead of Kelly worked out well.
Great work mate. Glad I played you last week!! 😉
Thanks All Saints
Your mate Billings helped me as well Steele . Are u still confident in Steele being top midfielder. At 3 qtr time was thinking maybe Steele to Merrett but he came home strong.
Happy to be in some strong Sct leagues and in for long haul.
I am in a few other leagues with you so will match up again soon.
Slower start then last 2 years but at least only used 1 trade so far
Was thinking the same thing. But I’m gonna keep him for now. Feel like it will click soon. Am actually happy with my entire MID and RUC lines up to respective byes I think, with Constable at M8 (Libba M6 and Walsh M7).
Am likely gonna make some aggressive moves the next few weeks to gain onfield points, build bank and snaffle some rookies.

Does this apply to you RE: wildcard?
2172 grundy
parkers price will bottom out now , will be a slow burn
rookie decisions have to be made this week
Spose it depends on your rookies but think Father Dougal would preach that the cows are not ready to be sacrificed yet.
He may miss next week. Didn’t look good after his calf injury in Q2. Robbie Young has an excellent first-half (all I got to see) for Sandringham and may just be a seamless replacement. Poor JS though.
2255 / Grundy
First good score and first round without Dusty and Dunkley. Think there’s something in that.
So glad i got Whitfield into my side now as he’s heading to top 10 overall. Bowes, the jury is still out on that crazy move. Andrews back in form was good to see.
Correction 2253
2187/Neale/ was 1650ish
Feel it’s about par. Weird round and some strange scores (both ways). Wrong rookies on the field and a regrettable non-trade coating me a lot.
Lost 2 League games, but won 8; 7 of them by less than 50pts.
Thanks Catta, TDA and Ben for the points in tight contests 😉
Hey, I beat Catta too!!!
I Beat Catta to0 in Catta’s challenge 2 , but you can’t keep a great man down so I am sure you will be back Catta
Well done, P Buzz!
Way too good this week
Well done, RB!
Way too good this week
Too good, allsaints
Well done!
Well Done All Saints!
Only 41pts but you always looked on top after Butters delivered a 23.
Look forward to our rematch later in the year in Looney Mooney’s and the SCT Contributor’s League, hopefully, when we are at full strength.
Good on ya TDA.
I’m very much looking forward to you having to donate prize money at the end of the season 🙂
2124/Cripps/ was 3259 – post may hold as the score seems middle of the road
started the Sunday mini stretch thinking I wouldn’t make 1900 but thanks to a Crippa, Billings and Walsh super effort and a semi solid 160 ish by Collins and Potatofield, got me to where I can’t complain.
Congrats to the folks who had high 22’s and 2300s – great effort in a week like this.
2267/Grundy/ Am 12k-ish in the rankings before this week, after being ranked 88,000ish after round 1…..
Hopefully move up the ranks again.
Haven’t used any trades yet. Looked at my disastrous round 1 result and still thought my team was ok so stuck with the lads I had who have redeemed themselves since then….
Not sure I will need to trade this week but geez the rookies are disastrous and I can’t nail the onfield ones to save myself. Scrimshaw on the pine this week…
2104/Grundy/36k
Actually happy in the end after being 1620/18. Cripps, Walsh, Scrimshaw and Collins finished off a very ugly round in good fashion.
Villains: too many to name.. half my on field team scored 73 or less.
In good news. The Tigers are Back!!
2163/Cripps
110k after Rd1
60k after Rd2
30k after Rd3
Is 15k after lockout too much to ask for?
2264 (Cripps) most rookies struggled and I had Scrimshaw on the bench. Kept Fyfe (hoping that is the right call) and had to take Atkins score instead. Hope he is back and scoring well next week. Happy with Rocky who proved he was over concussion.
293 overall ranking scored 2304 cripps you fuken beautyy captain
Go you good thing!!!!
Hot damn, Anthony. Nicely done.
Surely you break into the top 100 with that score!
Im 110 overall
Well done!
2449 / Grundy loop hole.
Everything went well other than Danger (who everyone had anyway) and the ginger ninja Oliver.
One of my better scores this time if the year.
Wow Dihi! What a score! What’s your overall rank? Bound to jump a few spots this round…
Thank you. Finished 12th for the week which I’m stoked about. 6500th now.
I’m a noterious slow starter every year so happy with that at current
Excellent Dihi. Keep it going!
Whoa. That’s huge, haven’t seen anything remotely close to that in any of the leagues I’m in….
Thanks Jamhed
2311 / Cripps / ?
Ranked 2751 coming into the round. Hopefully I can leapfrog a few teams. Still 29 trades left so maybe time to get a bit aggressive from here…
Woohoo – 730. New pb ranking for me! Too early to claim the $50K?
Go for it Tommy. Now is the time to be aggressive! Good luck!
Thanks allsaints. Early finish to lockout is nice, time to start playing around with trades!
2148 / Grundy VC
Can’t seem to field the right rookies week in week out! Had Scrimshaw and Hore on the pine 🙁
2362, traded Fyfe and Dusty to Neale and Boak, paid off this week but time will tell 🙂
Whoever said a week is a long time in football must know my 15yo son. He just scored 2413 . Ive sent myself to my room without any dinner
2276/Cripps/308
Up from 593 last week.
12 players @ 100+ and 10 under 78. My Supercoach is going a hell of a lot better than my tipping!
And top 10 in SCT group!!
2281 Grundy was 2255. But I have sinned traded Fyfe and darling for Whitfield and Boak ! Had wrong rookies on field.
2241/VC Grundy/13224 (up over 9K)
Is Billings a keeper?
Will Fyfe be back (and cop the De Boer tag)?
Which rookies do I field next round?
Possibly. If you already have him yes. For those that don’t, I’d just be wary of Steven’s imminent return and possible impact on set-up. Gresham fans/owners should be particularly concerned as he’s playing Stevo’s role a significant % of game time.
For what it’s worth, I also think his return will help Steele!
2214/Cripps/was 25k-ish
Solid effort considering there were several pox scores in there.
Carrying the team this week were Cripps, Zerrett, Whitfield & Heeney. Special mention to Libba & R Marshall who were traded in this week & were excellent value. Butters & Parker were spudtacular even for rookies and Danger, Menegola & Z Williams were dead weight for the more established players. Oliver testing my patience also….possibly the biggest regret so far in starting him over Neale.
2210/Grundy/ 15500 (was 21,907)
Good performances from T Atkins filling in for Fyfe as well as 9 players going over 100 (L Whitfield, S Walsh, B Grundy, I Heeney, B Smith, R Laird, T Goldstein, L Neale and Z Merrett). Poor performance from the trio of P Dangerfield, Z Williams and Z Butters combining for 149 but apart from that quite happy with my current side.
2237/grundy/39k ish was 60k
Had a poor start to year , 76k then 61k then 6ok, slowly improving.
Petrucelle and parker on field didn’t help.
Onward and upward!
Only used one trade , this week dusty to zerrett.
I played ‘coopers’ this week. Apologies for my above par score if you know who the coopers are!
That’s Bruce. Well done Dihi 😉
And Bruce, great score mate, have no doubt we’ll be matching up soon 🙂
Cheers allsaints , as i said slow start , but all the good advice on this site tells me not to panic.
Couple of premos haven’t fired but the season runs for 23 rounds.
You got me dihi , great score this week , only in 2 leagues and won the other one, keep your good start going.
2277/Cripps/628.No trades used yet.Time to start planning to capitalise on a very unexpected good start to the season
Great score Pop’s Daughter.
What a fantastic early rank.
Don’t feel like you have to trade just yet. If you have no real problems, read Cow Talk ( out wednesday ), make sure you get the best out of your rookies and you will be fine.
Pop really would be proud 🙂
2,147/Grundy/5,385
disappointing week.
Rank went from 2,948 to 5,385.
Might be time for my first trade this week.
2103/Macrae/28281
2259/Grundy/4733
8/10 league wins is pretty good, and pretty happy with a weekly rank withing the top 7k.
Spuds: Dunkley, Oliver, Crouch, Danger, Williams and my FWD rookies.
Oliver and Dunkley have started the season off poorly, especially Dunkley. Unsure whether i should back Dunkley or will he turn out to be Billings from last year? Only made the 1 trade and it was a bold one that payed off this week but still a season to see if it was worth going Fyfe to Zerrett.
Studs: Cripps, Grundy, Zerrett, Neale, Whitfield, Heeney, Walsh, Scrimshaw and Hore.
Great to see all these premiums going big, hoping they keep it reasonable and not be a flash in the pan and fall into the 90’s. Great to see Scrimshaw put in a decent performance as this should really boost his price. Hoping i can keep up a great season as i haven’t had this great of a start before
2250 / Grundy – 8,563 overall
2178-Macrae. 6793. (3 weeks out of 4, been in this position while everyone is jumping over or falling back) so a pretty consistent season so far.
Not sure where to go from here lol. Cash generation is going to become difficult.
Almost thinking of trading in mid pricers as keepers just to replace the rookies.
I’m only missing Whitfield, Kelly and fyfe as the +600k guys.
2260/cripps/ 199th (was 254th)
Glad i managed to gain a few spots with pettrucelle and butters on field. Also wish id pulled the trigger on dunkley->marshall. Hindsight is 20/20 though 🙂
Roo Boy. Diji. Bruce P. All Saints… how do i get in a league with you guys next year? Lol. You guys seem active.
Anyways…
2229/Cripps/3182 ranked overall.
Had only one trade but will make two upgrades this week and hope to crack the top 1k!
Good day flying scotsman I am only in two leagues , both connected to this site, I really enjoy the positive banter and good advice dispensed.
2235 / Cripps
Ranking 4086
7 players under 70 this week incl. Danger.
Cannot get the rookies right with both Hore & Duursma on the pine.
How frustrating is it ….. I had 9 under 70! Including Jones’s 9 on field.
Having Cripps as captain totally saved me from a horror show. 2134 surely isn’t unreal but considering the above, I see it as bullet dodged.
Onward and upward.
2179 thanks to capt Cripps. Special thanks to c Bines who is having a great year… Cant use him this week though. Went Dusty to T Kelly over zerrett…and I’m a bombers fan!! Wanted the Kelly dpp for later.
2212 / Cripps / 17321 up 7512
All the usual suspects. Oliver, M Crouch and Dunkely not so good, Cripps good. Still have not traded, which is sort of bad since I could have maybe improved somewhere, but no clear moves I liked. But, still have trades to use.
I’m gonna have to run the Cow Talk numbers this week, because I need them! If I do then I am sure others do too!
2211 / Cripps/ Rank – 928 (dropped 200 spots)
2348 / Cripps / Rank – 298
I’m sooo pumped went up over 1,700 ranks
Made Danger captain after Macrae’s lower than expected score. That killed me.
Danger can GAGF.
2090/Grundy/30k
Horror year continuing to happen so many let down premiums and rookies yet again another week it’s hurting starting Oliver Neale but can’t do much about it now.
Studs:
Hurn
B.Smith
Crippa
Walshy
Grundy
Gawn
Duds:
Williams
Nateo ( Fieled Clark over Scrimshaw)
Oliver
Crouch Bros
Butters
Danger
Kelly
Parker
Not sure on trades this week but spud rookies gotta go!
