Still in. Very lucky to get through the last 3 weeks, having an average of 5 donuts per week and playing people ranked higher than me each time.
 
Playing chockfullofpog

Some different picks Dempsey, Grima, Grimes, ebert. (all good but not common imo)

Still has Walker in the forwards which is strange but has an awesome midfield. Gonna be real close as I have my weaknesses too.

Playing Meg's Marauders. Averages about 15 points a round better than me this year.

At least 12-13 unique differences before trades - will be quite interesting to see it pan out as usually you could narrow it down to one or two key matchups plus captain choice.
 
I'm playing a high ranked team but feel mine is stronger on paper.Will be a good contest.
Before trades.
Broughton, Heppell Carrots, Watson, Mitchell, Kreuzer, Robinson, Whitecross, Zorko
vs
Sucklin, Lake, Hargrave, Stanton, Simpson, Orren, Riewoldt, Chapman, Harvey
 
Currently 1166/11 vs 1301/13

Uniques to come
Dempsey v Heppell
Jetta v Watson
Dickson v Hargrave
Shiel v Zorko
S Johnson v Boyd
Ebert vs Dal Santo
Adcock vs Rockliff

Stanton (capt) is my trump card

Edit: Me SJ/Ebert/Adcock + 55 vs Opp Zorko/Rockliff/DalSanto - very close.
 
Dang! Looking at getting around 2400 yet still going to go down. Unless, umm....Redden gets 184 tomorrow :(
In a similar position to you. 1911 with 5 to play.

Heath Shaw, Kreuzer, Hargrave and Lake to a lesser extent hurting my score

While Dempsey and Porplyzia for him came through.

Oh well I had a crack.
 
I'm through unless Riewoldt and Boomer Harvey can combine for 259. Think I'll be alright.

edit: touch wood

Halfway through the Lions game, I was finished.
But Zorko went missing 2nd half, Adcock found a bit of the ball, and Dal Santo only scored 91.

I think I won by 8???
 
Got through by 200 odd against a good team. My guns fired and his didn't. Had 3 100's on my bench but thankfully didn't play a part.
 
Lost by 13...

**** Hayes and Goldstein pull games out of their arses.

Goldstein without H Mac is imo the best DT ruck. Not taking anything away from Maric and Cox but he has been killing it.


For me I can't believe I got through after checking Sat night I was 8 points down with 3 uniques v 4 uniques and predicted to lose.

Nice work Rockliff, Jelwood and Mcevoy. Glad Adcock, Grima, Grimes and Ebert were all down.

I
Playing someone with all the same issues as me :)

Martin and Goddard for sure
Franklin injury worry
Mitchell talk of resting
Boyd leaves training early

I have all these issues. My opponent has a shit team (rank 20k) but i'm as worried as i've been for any eliminator match up.
Key match ups to come.

Well I am not 20k so hopefully I am not this 'shit' team you speak of.

I am playing Tim, Ranked 80th overall so very solid. I think now that my team is 14 rounds old (i.e. fixed and upgraded from my debacle original team) that I have a chance but am facing a distinct disadvantage in the rucks with him having Cox and Goldstein and I only have McEvoy and Giles/Kreuzer
