It's back! I'm versing 'Pendo' this week who only scored 1368 last round but is ranked 492nd overall. They have a good team but it is still a few upgrades away from being complete with players like Barrett/SPP, Otten, Marchbank, Roughy in their starting lineup. My team is complete and therefore should be about 50 points better on average. They also have both Nank and Scooter while I just have Scooter. I'm confident, but not cocky! Often it is matchups that I think I have won that have eliminated me in the past so anything can happen! I'm just glad it is back
 
Vsing "Off the Bench" this week

Me vs Him:

Laird - Tuohy
Simpson - Marchbank
Lloyd - Mills

Rockliff - Merrett
Beams - Murphy
Kennedy - Gaff
Sloane - Treloar
Hall - Heppell
Barrett - Powell-Pepper

Sandilands - Witts

Macrae - Steele
Greene - Walters

Feeling confident I can beat him
 
Playing Goodfella, ranked 85.
Probably just have them covered before trades, hopefully they don't have a huge war chest.
 
I'm playing a team called Mark It Zero who are ranked just outside the top 1000.

I've got them covered comfortably pre-trades, so hopefully that continues once lockout happens.

I haven't been paying any attention to the match-ups but I'm still in it this year. I usually get eliminated within the first three rounds.
Winning DT is your priority

But yeah, I tried to win eliminator last year as it was the first time I went deep in it, went to R19 (round of 32) but was knocked out because Stef was out and had no trades/coverage left as I focused on completing my team early so it'd give me the best chance of winning the post-bye roundd., but yeah, injury was always going to hurt.

If I get through this week then great, but not fussed if I get KOd, just not worth it in the long run, particularly now with the eliminator prize money being **** all now. I'm simply trying to get a good side together to finish strong in the last 7-8 weeks, right now I'm fielding Barrett at M8 then will upgrade him next week or week after if he scores well again.

Lost by 19, not happy Jan
 
Won by a point. Roberton's kick a second before the siren sent my from a two point shattering loss to a one point win. When I took that bounce, I thought it was the end of the Mozzie Bites for 2017.
 
Out 2332 - 2313
Was a tad overconfident it seems.

Well, serves me right

Sandilands and Hall out meant I had to start Stewart and Greenwood ... so one of those things was OK

But ultimately, Barrett (39), Stewart (49) and Beams (5) cost me. Went down 2218 - 2325
