2012 Eliminator Thread

[PowerForGood]

I'm not that good at DT (rank 27K overall) but had a good week (Elim rank 14K)
Opponent is Elim rank 27K, but is just rank 5K overall.

Will work out unique matchups once game starts.

Birchall (81) v Hargrave (83)
Waters (102) v Robinson (117)
Martin (89) v Griffin (124)
B.Ebert (99) v J.Kennedy (109)
Ablett (128 x 2) v Stanton (142 x 2)
Coniglio (80) v Pavlich (97)
S.Johnson (112) v Dangerfield (111)
Treloar (73) v Shiel (73)
D.Smith (72) v Magner (73)

They should win by about 100, captain choice might be the key

Time to check the Unique matchups this week for my match

I have a slight edge i think

Defence
Shaw v Scotland
Waters v Bugg
Morris v Clarke

Mids
Stanton (c) v Ablett (c)
Hayes v Selwood
Dangerfield v Boyd
Horsley v Stanton
Zorko v Judd

Forwards
Chapman v Robinson
Beams v Dickson
Smith v Pfeiffer

Rucks
Cox v Jenkins

Hmm, this looks to be a lot closer then i thought. His 5 premo midfield is going to cause some problems. Ive got the edge in the rucks and forwards and its about even in defence. He has the edge in the mids. This round will come down to how Ablett goes as his Captain and how Horsley/Zorko go as rookie mids for me.

Mine looks like it's going to be very close.

Unique match ups (me on the left):

J.Selwood v Mitchell
Birchall v Suckling
Dangerfield v Whitecross
Thompson v Stanton
Beams v Robinson
Bugg v Ellis
Zorko v D.Smith
Sandilands v Cox
Waters v Broughton

 

[PowerForGood]

So following on from 3 posts up, who woulda thunk that Johnson 148 would match Griffen 84 and Hargrave 64??

I thought I was about 100 behind on uniques, after game 1 I reckon we're now square!

 

[QS]

I'm going to get slaughtered this week. Guy's projected score is 2435, mine is 2271.

 

[lmach]

Mines 2341 (me) v 2319 Going to be so close!

 

[_RT_]

After last night the scores in my eliminator are:
Me 294 vs Them 306
Uniques:
Lake 52 vs Hargrave 64
Birchall vs Porplyzia
Mitchell vs Clarke
Morris vs Zaharakis
Maric vs Ryder
Goddard vs Watson
Sidebottom vs Heppell(Spurr emergency)
Adams vs McDonald
Treloar vs Bugg
Barlow vs C.Pearce

Current projections are: Me 2282 vs Them 2322 however the removal of Heppell swings things my way.

Spurr isnt playing so you can almost certainly count that as a donut.

Great. Just when I look like having a decent week too.

Haves to expect big scores from Stants and Robinson, so you could be in trouble.

 

[CrippsonBlue]

Looked like an reasonably easy week again, but just as I was expecting to breeze past him despite his initial players overachieving, his 6 players (4 GWS) have outscored my 8 up to half time...

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Looking like Coniglio will cost me my match. Had such a promising start too, but has done **** all for nearly 2 qtrs!

 

[CrozaN]

Unless Stanton gets on his bike, i lose the elim and was looking good

 

[lion4life]

I was looking good, but cause of stanton/dangerfield/other players shitness its going to go down to the wire tomorrow

Bleh:my uniques gunned it in the last to give me an 86 point buffer going into tomorrow

Me v Him
Cox v Scotland
Waters v Judd
Zorko v Robinson

Should just get home i think with my 84 point lead, but concerned one or more of those 3 will smash out big tonnes against melbourne

 

[CrozaN]

HOLY CRAP this is gonna be very very tight.

Me Zorko + Rockliff + 27

vs

Robinson + Kruzer.

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Mine has basically come down to...

Cox and Scotland (me) vs Rockliff and Waters + 24 points (him).

If Coniglio had of got his projected score it'd be a line ball, but I think it will take a miracle (or an injury) now for me to stay in it.

 

[yellowandblack21]

Pendlebury (C) ... beyond disappointing. Laziness personified.

Need Broughton, Waters, Golby & Zorko to score 249 points tomorrow or I'm out.
Should get home if they all hit their averages but it will be no thanks to you Scott.

Well it seems I've gotten lucky with Stanton only scoring 94.

Now it's me Waters plus 332 vs them Robinson, Magner, Pavlich.

Looks like I've got my upset over team ranked top 5K.

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Think you should be safe. Although quite a few unknowns there. No murph, means Robbo's role will be different and who knows what playing three rucks will do to Kruezers score. Zorko starting as a sub (if that were to happen) could also throw a spanner in the works haha

Too close to call. Will come down to whether Zorko and Magner are around the ton or get something like 50-60. The beauty of rookies.

Robinson will cancel Scotland, Cox slightly shaded by Sandi, Broughton and Hurn fairly even, Zorko and Magner about 150.

I think you are about 55-45 favorite in my opinion.

 

[lmach]

Going to be very tight:

Zorko, Waters, Sandilands + 42

v

Robinson, Broughton, Cox

Who wins?
