After losing the last 2 years by 7 and 17pts, I'm still bloody nervous here.View attachment 1787523

Surely no chance of losing this. Green would have to score 200.

Looks like im going to win all 3 of my grand finals and 1 consolation bracket final. So 3 out of 7 leagues i participated in which im pretty happy about. Score is looking like it will be 2380ish

2394. Happy to end the season on a high. My overall rank is poor but mainly because my bye planning was non-existant and i did trade in a few rookies that turned into duds which meant i really didnt have much depth. I did finish 2 rounds in the top 20 though and finished the season quite strongly despite being out of trades for the last 3-4 rounds. Best trade in was probably Houston who i got fairly cheap and he dominated most weeks when i had him in my team!

hahahah Mills 155 on the bench sums it up.

Getting Maric instead of a dpp switch has cost me 100s of points in the last few weeks. Instead of fielding Mills this week I cop a donut and Mullin at D5 and D6

2363. Got home by 30.

Wonder if the other guy has realised he could have switched Butters forward and benched Windy instead of Rowell which cost him 40 points

2263
Will finish around 600 odd i guess

2595. Hoping that might propel me to 8th overall or so. Doch injury a complete blessing, as no other injury would have let me take Mills’s 155. Def/mid plus last game of the round + Green the preferred replacement meant I held the trade until then. Any other player it gets burnt; no way to take Mills’s score. Glad he was finally useful for something!

Didn’t end up using the last trade, in hindsight the smart play would have been Anderson to Green last round as a luxury. If I went Daicos to Newman instead of Short I think I’d have been a sniff at the top 3-5.

Aw shit I went up to 5th!!!

12th for the round.

Cracked the top 500 for the first time, coming in at 429.

rd24: 2208pts (top 35%)
overall: 1,421st (top 16%)... down 126 spots

Duncan(DNP) + Docherty(DNP) + AtkinsR(sub) + Wagner + onfield donut + Steele + leaving Mills on my bench =

lost my Grand Final by 283pts

it would've been handy to have a couple more trades left towards the end of the year, but i ran out after selling Daicos
i wasted too many trades on dead end players such as Setterfielad, Bowes, Yeo(twice), SmithB, Walsh... which meant my final squad wasn't potent enough
players i couldn't stand getting the footy the most = Coniglio (by a mile), Sinclair, Stewart
players i had from the start who delivered the goods = Rozee, Sheezel, Taranto, Dunkley, Marshall, English, Laird, Green, Brayshaw
initial starting squad was quite poor... i was ranked around 5,000th after the first round... thus, using up 6 trades in the first 3 weeks

anyways, i'm already looking forward to next year... i'll be playing FPL in the off season !!

I stayed 12th overall with 2440 odd. I’m happy with that.

Well done to Skippos finishing 5th - awesome effort! Thanks for a fun season folks, see you again late this year or early next year depending on keen-ness. Saludos amigos!!

Cheers mate. Well done to you as well. Kept coming hard.

And a general thanks to all of the regulars from this thread/community. Been a great help having a bunch of blokes happy to shoot the shit about this niche fantasy game. In a lot of ways got me through and kept me sane/logical. Much appreciated, and see you all next year.
