2012 Eliminator Thread

[cfx_1]

Won my eliminator by 200 points.. Only 2 zeros this week should see me go strongly in the eliminator.

 

[iluvparis]

Playing the 30th ranked team from last week with an overall rank of around 1.2k (v mine 9k)

I also have Shaw and he doesn't - think I'll be gonski

Home by 12 points!!!

Think this is my best effort ever - onwards and upwards

 

[Tippaz]

up against Joshys Giants (ranked 20k)

we're both facing 5 donuts but i'm gonna pull a double trade

 

[mike262]

i am vsing http://dreamteam.afl.com.au/?p=other_teams&tid=30476

good team to vs in 1st week. i am liking my chances

He will have 7 donuts to my 3 if there is no trading and some rookies manage to hold their places. ie. hall, stephenson and sexton

 

[Ess_don]

Im up against Brickers, strong team (similar midfield) but we're both facing same donuts.. dont like my chances this week I reckon.

 

[cfx_1]

Decided to bite the bullet and trade pendles to beams.. 1 week out guaranteed I would have kept him but 2 weeks outs means a couple hundred points that i can't afford considering i'm ranked just under 5k. need to make up some ground.

 

[Jimi]

I'm up against Lowest Dregs EDT. I think I have the better team for this bye round but who knows what trades he will make.

 

[Spider Klein]

Wow had resigned myself to a loss this week with

4 backs
3 mids
2 rucks
5 forwards

Amazingly my opponent is exactly the same. So yeah game on I guess.

 

[Rudeurrection]

3 trades should keep me alive this week. Trade trade and trade some more until i run out.

Keeping my lucky charm from last week Shane Tuck, although i was very tempted to sideways him to Shaun Grigg, im sidewaysing the shit out of Liam Shiels to Nicky Dal. Dayne Beams youre in, unfortunately i couldnt sideways you in so i had to upgrade Horsley to you, oh, and Jamie Elliot, this week will be your first and last a week in my side and i will be trading you next week for whoever i can afford that is playing, but ill sure enjoy those 20 sub effected points you give me this week.

Im winning. Only 1 doughnut.

 

[_RT_]

Reckon I'm gone this week. 13 vs 16 at the moment. Can honestly say if I get up this will be a bigger upset than Carlton Essendon & West Coast losing last week.

Projected Scores: Me 1834 vs Them 1963

Difference Makers:
Robinson vs Enright
Barlow vs Stephenson
Deledio (C) vs Deledio
Maric vs Cotchin
Heppell vs Morris
Mitchell vs Hall
Sidebottom vs Sidebottom (C)
Pendles vs Swan
Lake vs Beams
Waters vs Clarke

As I said above I'm effectively playing dead already.

 

[PowerForGood]

Playing "Team Awesome"
Again, playing someone with higher overall ranking, but had a bad week (3rd week running).

I've got 5 zeros (2xB, 1xM, 2xF)
They've got 5 zeros (2xB, 2xM, 1xF)

Uniques (Me v Them)
Dempsey v Wilkes
Ebert v Williams (Coll - who?)
Beams v Magner
Redden (PA) v Stephenson
Roughead v Sandilands
Chapman v Smedts (0)
Johnson v Elliott

Should win by 200+ and make it to the next round, last 4096..

 

[Jimi]

Should win this week. Opponent has 3 doughnuts and just the one for me. I need Selwood, Enright, Chapman and Johnson to have quiet games tonight to ensure victory.

 

[Hawkage]

After tonight's game my scenario is:

Me v Them

Magner v +54 points
Cotchin v Suckling
Swan v Watson
Milera v Sexton
Broughton v M Clarke

It was going to be an easy win but Enright and Stevie J failing have turned this into a close mathcup. I should still get the win.

 

[Ess_don]

Im predicted to just win by a whisker.. 1889-1870.
Still dont like my chances though.

 

[Spider Klein]

Such similar teams this week. (even both pulled in Beams and Wiliams this week lol)

After tonight it's basically

Pavlich, Ellis and 240

v

Watson, Zaharakis, Jarred Redden, Whitecross

Hmmmm could be close. Sydney do a shut down job please.

 

[Hurley300]

Thought i might be in trouble this week with my 4 0s but opened up eliminator to see im playing a team with 13 0s haha. his projected score is 1300 but that's including pendles, shaw and horsley he could struggle to hit 1000.

 

[old scholar]

Sandilands injury is probably going to be the end of me in the Eliminator.

Me: Hale, Suckling, Birchall, Beams & Magner + 73 points.

Them: Dal Santo, Goddard, Sexton, Watson, Zaharakis, Redden & Swan.

 

[cfx_1]

Elliot vs Clarke... And he needs to win by 30.. Don't like my chances.. Should have gone swan as captain.... Stupid spud ablett... Why u no score well when I make you captain!

 

[Spider Klein]

I'd like to apologise for my score which looks like being roughly 1400 getting me through this week. If I speak too soon and he gets 250 from WhiteX and jarred Redden I will be pissed

 

[old scholar]

In trouble;

Me: Hale, Birchall, Suckling, Beams & Magner
Them: Swan, Redden + 272 points.

 

[mike262]

should have easily won, instead its come down to the wire

Me: Mitchell, Birchill, Clarke and Swan vs
Him: M. Williams, Beams, Grimes, +124

 

[Ess_don]

Was quietly confident friday night after my opponent's Orren posted that 23, only for my "premo" Sandi to get injured 4mins in and score a freakin 10.. now Im looking at a close loss.

Me: Suckling + Magner
Him: Birchall + Beams + 20pts

Ok, a definite loss here.. unless some miracle happens?

 

[NinjaBear]

need birchall to score pretty well and marty clarke to do really badly (30)

 

[old scholar]

Down to this;

Me: Beams & Magner
Them: Swan + 50 points.

 

[NinjaBear]

well looks like i jinxed myself by saying marty clarke needs to get only 30, cos thats exactly what he needs.if i made one trade i'd be through to the next round
