[Jiska]

That moment when you check your two cash leagues, playing for $1300 in total, and find out both opponents have Sloane.

INB4 LOCK

Discussion thread made too early in the week...

Oh wait

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

Pfft lucky your not playing me Jiska i'd kick your ass this week

I hope they rest goldy, I recon that could bring a little anarchy .. And I like that coz I've got Trades!!

Tragics1 is mine for the taking

 

[KardiniaPark]

Geez OP must be in some shithouse cash leagues. Barely left the starting gates in Tragics.

 

[stevebbb]

Currently ranked 16,883..

Would bloody love a top 15k finish !

I'm hoping for some carnage this week and I need to Steven Bradbury it!



buuuut I'll probably score 1900 and end the season ranked 20k+

 

[JDavey]

Finals in my cash league and it's a tight one - I have Birchall on my bench so there's a good chance I'll loophole Bartel. Also have the 1 trade up my sleeve to do some Sunday magic... Apart from that think my opponent has the edge just on a player v player basis (although mine outscored his last week).

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

So thinking about strategy coming into the GF, so long as there is no carnage, I've been thinking.. All 3 of my cashie opponents have a player I don't.. Would it be a dick move to trade him in just to nullify that players score... Or smart ??

I am possibly maybe implicated to not like this post.

Depends who that player is and who they are playing and where, weather, tag???

Yes, trade in Gibson and Boomer.

 

[Seymour Skinner]

Norf just announced that Petrie, Boomer, Firrito and Dal Santo won't be getting contract extensions.

 

[gutsroy]

Wonder what impact, if any, the North announcement will have on team selection this week.

They will all play and North will want to win to send them off.
Surprised they're moving on Boomer, guess he will probably retire now.

It would be a dick move to avoid a trade that can maximise your chances of winning.

I would do it in a heartbeat. But as a slight underdog, makes sense for me to differentiate.

Dislike because I have him.
Good luck to everyone in a grand final and everyone going for a good rank. Hoping to make the top 200 for the first time here.

Yeah, reckon so, too. Genuinely surprised on Boomer, he is still performing at a high standard.

If it reduces the variables in your favour a la captain negation and he's not likely to pull out an absolute turkey score, why not.
Playing for sheep stations this week.

Just realised that I can still win the 50k if I score a bit over 5000 this week.

You would have to nail your captain.
Can I recommend a player who scored a massive 2 the other week. Scott Lycett.

If the rest of your team is better than his, do it to lessen his opportunity to overcome the disadvantage. If the rest of your team is worse and there is a better trade alternative, don't. You will need PODs.

Tragics 1?? Scored 200 points less than 4th place but 700 points more against. Third highest score against. Luck of the draw.

Grand Final in Tragics 2 - league ranked 815.

Ironically half the people that liked your post have been eliminated from Tragics 2. LOL.
