Traded in Hawkins & Bramble to get up to 15 players. Looking forward to moving premiums back onto the field and hopefully start scoring like premiums….Somehow managed to win 5/10 leagues so can’t be unhappy with that.
I was happy going into this round with 17 on field and looking at close to 1800, then almost every player I have underperformed compared to their average (except Ziebell and Ridley) to end up collectively 300 below their average. Scraped through in the league, but I was very nervous at 3QT.
1560/ Lyons/ 3 out of5 league wins/ ranking in the toilet.
Fielded 18 players but had to suck up Duncan, Jones and Newcombe scoring 62 points between them.
Drilling captains the only thing keeping me alive this season lol. Was on track for 1700 this week until Zerrett, Langford, Nuke and Bramble all f*cked around, joining Boak, Jones and Cameron. Happy to have made up some ground though.
Shout out to FD, who smashed me in the admin league with a large 1811.
Boy – I think I’ve ended up with about 1870. 19 on the field plus Dow on the bench,
more through luck than planning. Since I’m ranked in the 40,000s and heading south
that was sorely needed.
I have no Richmond or WCE players, so that last minute game switch played
into my hands beautifully. If only I hadn’t (i) put the C on Walsh and (ii) sideways
traded Impey for Langford – I could’ve been looking at a cash prize 🙂
Had eighteen on the park led by Ziebell, Lyons and Stewart with solid back up from Impey and Taranto. Made three not so brilliant trades in hindsight bringing in Danger, Langford and Bramble. Wanted Neale and Simpkin but that would’ve left me too many mids so had to even them out. Team still needs some work.
1,124 / Kelly / 29,948 (down 6,287)
Terrible score but somehow won a league match by 12 points. Fielded 12 players this week with 5 players making a ton.
Moving in the right direction but not as far up as I was hoping for with 18 onfield this week.
Won 10/10 leagues and moved up 35 spots in SCT group.
Pretty much all of my new recruits underperformed. Captain Jelly, Walsh, Hunter and Gray. Gray looks like he’ll only spend the one week in Stewys Soldiers with his knee injury.
With 7 “premos” scoring under 100 it could have been so much better.
Hopefully this is the lowest I’ll rank for the rest of this year and continue my upwards travel.
1477 from 15 on field.
Absolute disaster, traded in Hawkins and Dale who were both terrible on debut. Drinks with the neighbours Friday night meant I accidentally put the C on Macrae instead of the VC….
Somehow won 5 out of 6 leagues but lost badly in Loec1.
Rank moved out to 2203.
Hopefully can hit the run home hard. Only 2 upgrades left, Haynes may be one this week.
Not bad, should have been a lot better. Bad captain choice, no luck with trades either. “Playing the long game”!
Lachie Jones will go this week, probably to Luke Edwards if selected. Eyeing off Danger as my final upgrade next week. Sorely tempted to get rid of Cripps, but the low trades warning light is going berserk
Somehow only dropped 300-odd places overall despite a crappy score…so that’s good.
Brought in Walsh this week. That’s bad.
Also brought in Lachie Neale. That’s good
Couldn’t muster a decent captain score out of Macrae (VC) or Jelly. That’s bad.
But the best thing is being done with these wretched byes for another season…..hallelujah!
Well what a week. Round rank of 65k dropped 2300 ranks overall.
First of all -10 for me for not changing my captain on friday night but kinda summed up my weekend. Had 14 players total and only 6 go over 100 with with 5 scores of 60 and under.
Won’t even bother with my +3s and -3s lmao.
Heres to hoping I can make up some ground in the coming weeks. Have 12 trades left but some upgrading to do this week and next week.
Really happy to more or less hold my overall rank after fielding 17. As is custom for my season, half my trades worked out. Last minute decision to bring in and captain Lyons, instead of Langford or Jelly really paid off. Merrett, ehh. Bramble and Briggs, not bad.
1520/Zerrett/10k prior
No idea what a good score is this week. Thinking 1500 is par. Hoping to finish in the top 1000 so will need a solid 9 weeks.
T/U Going up this week
T/D going down this week
1620 / Whitfield / 9800
1641 / Lyons / 6,600 pre this round
Avoided sideways trading and rolled with 17 players. Lachie Jones injury and 29, Boak 76 the main lowlights.
Can’t wait to welcome Shai Bolton into my team this week.
1756 – Bont – was 584 prior to this round
18 players. Bailey Dale was disappointing on debut. Langford not much better but overall the team performed okay
Rank 362
1689/Lyons/3167 prior to this round
16 players
1484 / Bont / down a bit I think?
Well I’m glad thats over.
Anyone else trade out Impey ?
Down 231 now 4495.
1533 / Merrett / 3951
Unfortunately could only field 15
Zerrett as captain hurt me quite a bit & brought in Walsh this week for his stinker
1348 / Titch / 9739 prior to this round
Traded in Hawkins & Bramble to get up to 15 players. Looking forward to moving premiums back onto the field and hopefully start scoring like premiums….Somehow managed to win 5/10 leagues so can’t be unhappy with that.
1,485/Titch
Lost two games by a single point!
1668 / Lyons / 3000ish
Had a full 18 but that includes Duncan’s 10
Will have a full premo side after this round and cross my fingers for the remainder of the season!
1473/Merrett/ N/A

1747 and not happy thanks to recruit Gray. Guess it will be a move up in the ranks. Robbed with vc wines score.
Think that’s a huge score – you might struggle to score that in R17!!
That will be plenty in R17….playing a dud !!
1560/ Lyons/ 3 out of5 league wins/ ranking in the toilet.
Fielded 18 players but had to suck up Duncan, Jones and Newcombe scoring 62 points between them.

1541/Lyons/ 10K
Overall a few bad calls. Not many trades left .
Jack Bowes has been an awful call. Lost a bunch of money and need to probably sideswap him
1713/Titch/2945 (up 1783 possies)

1829/Merrett/122
1505/Kelly/4164 (down 61)
Not a huge drop in rank considering all the muppet scorers my team pumped out. See ya later bye rounds! Good luck to all for rest of season!
1832/Bontempelli/635 (Up from 1387)
Hawkins a bad call to trade him in. Brambles did enough for a 102k rookie.
1639/Jelly/6867 (up 2528)

1692/Parish 10 out of 10/ 1960 up 984
Yep, Parish was a mistake, but not really a huge one.
1652 / Lyons / 241 (-20)
Really happy to more or less hold my overall rank after fielding 17. As is custom for my season, half my trades worked out. Last minute decision to bring in and captain Lyons, instead of Langford or Jelly really paid off. Merrett, ehh. Bramble and Briggs, not bad.
1668 / Jelly / 365
Boak and Dale were disgusting on debut. Slightly disappointed with the score considering I had 18. 🙁
5 trades left with Z Smith at R2, doubt I’ll be trading this week, unless Ceglar is dropped for Reeves.
1508/Merrett/1508
Horror round for me as i only had 15 fielded and Boak spud it on debut! Looking forward to 21 premos next week
Studs:
Stewart
Whitfield
Ziebell
Impey
Ridley
Duds:
Boak
Walsh
No trades for me this week need 1-2 cash rises from CCj to up Weightman to Danger
