AFL RDT 2021 Eliminator Discussion Thread

[SELFCONFESDAFLNERD]

I believe the eliminator starts this round. Although, most teams, if not every team, will have a bye this round. I always enjoy the eliminator but i dont think ive got past the final 64 before. I don't know how much interest there will be for it, but lets keep the discussion to this thread.

I got down to the last 8 a couple of years ago when beaten by the eventual winner. I think from memory it was DaVe86.
There's no way I'll be getting too far this year.

That is quite an achievement. I think multiple eliminator winners have been bigfooty users

Basically the sole reason I play this format. Love the eliminator for it's week to week battles.
I think top ~ 250odd is the best I manage at which point alot of it comes down to luck.

I generally burn my trades to stay in the eliminator rather than care about the overall ranking.

Generally liking how my teams shaping up atm with a decent ketty set aside for some upgrades in the next couple of weeks to keep my weekly rankings propped up for good matchups.

Yep

Bye

 

[SELFCONFESDAFLNERD]

Have a very favourable matchup this round. I dont see a way i lose when my opponent has players like Keath, O.Allen, Brander & Blicavs

Probably slight fav in my mine

 

[TheRednWhite]

I'm also a slight favourite this week....is it normal to have a bye in round 8 as well?

 

[toxic]

Reckon I'll scrape through

Is there a way to see opponents ranking in Eliminator?

Thats the 'beauty' of the eliminator!

I'm done this week I think. This is exactly the type of match ups I lose...my opponent has held Ryan through injury and of course he will be back in time just to play against me.

He has Walsh/Doch who have been great all year. Oliver is going huge this week against the crows. Jelly has suddenly hit form recently. Heppell has a great role. First opponent I have had all year that has I.Smith, he has been good too.

I have too many inconsistent guys: Markov, Dusty even Bray.
