Actually was a choice between Kelly and Neale for my final trade. That alone cost me an elimination final in one of my leagues. Started with danger and titch at least.

I must admit to trading Tom Mitch to Murphy about round 6 and to be too proud to trade him back in.
After destroying me yesterday I almost ready to admit that I was wwwwrrronng!
Will certainly consider him next year.

Biggest regret, not selecting some of the players who get fifty points for running through the banner.
Banner runners = 50 points= Premo.
Lace tying = 25 points = middle tier

Score: 2424
Weekly Ranking: 39 917
Overall Ranking: 18 578 (17 711)
Heroes: Docherty, Laird, Dangerfield (C), Zorko, Fyfe, Beams, Nankervis, Macrae, Yeo, Present Me
Villains: McDonald, Bontempelli (E), Past Me
Trades Made: Young to Strnadica
Trades Planned: Who knows.
Trades Left: 2
Trades: 7/10.
The Young to Strnadica trade allowed me to loophole Gawn, and gave me a R/F DPP link again.
Defence: 5/10
Absolutely dreadful score from Tom McDonald dragged a reasonable showing into the doldrums, made even worse by the fact that he is a big POD. I loopholed Lloyd down back, and I was tossing up whether to play Witherden instead of his 81 - as it was, other matters made that decision a moot point. Shaw finally tonned up; Docherty was back to his brilliant best. Laird returned to his best form, and Adams posted another ton.
Midfield: 7/10
And the other matter rears its ugly head. I eventually decided to loophole in the midfield. Had the player I decided to loophole scored well, I wouldn't have been able to loophole in the ruck, or I would've had to play Witherden in place of Lloyd. As it was, as West Coast's Bayok was my loopholing agent, so I had to decide between Bontempelli or Treloar. I was going to go with Treloar, but the extra time that I would have had swung my choice towards Bontempelli, and boy did it pay off in a big way. For his part, Treloar had an excellent final term to post a reasonable score, Mountford did his part on the bench, but my POD Coniglio was under par. Rockliff had a good last term but was still disappointing, I didn't lose any points playing Witherden over Mountford. The rest of my midfield was excellent; Zorko brilliant early but slowed slightly under the attention of Melksham; Dangerfield powered on to another brilliant C score; Beams and Fyfe continued their magnificent late season form.
Rucks: 7.5/10
I thought Kreuzer was heading for another big score, but he slowed; I loopholed Gawn and decided to gamble on Nankervis in his place, and the gamble paid off. Funnily enough I had 3 trades in Real Dream team, so I got myself Gibbs (105), and benched JPK (130), with Gaff (63) on field. I swung Steele (110), up forward, keeping Greenwood (96), on the bench, with JJK (59), on field, which allowed me to put Gawn (65) on field, and Nankervis (140), on the bench. I lost 182 points just by those poor bench choices.
Forwards: 8/10
The Continuing Adventures of Jack Macrae had another high, with a brilliant 145 leading the line. Yeo finally hit the ton, after a run of decent scores that couldn't quite break the 100. JJK was below par, but can be forgiven as it was against one of the competition's best sides; Dahlhaus was below par, Heeney had a massive rally to post 90, and Greenwood did his bit from the emergency loophole.
Overall: 7/10
Well, easily my best score of the year and I still fall in the rankings. My big points of difference mostly disappointed, and despite just about nailing every on-field selection, my previous trade decisions continue to bit me. I also have to deal with an annoyance in the draw, as McDonald and Witherden play at the same time, so I cannot loophole the two.
I will have to decide on how best to use my final two trades.

The ultimate regret is my starting side, it was absolutely putrid.
It caused this:

Got to 19,000th in Round 7 after starting similar to you. I call these the 'despite investing a stupid amount of time into this game I still went nowhere' weeks:
Regrets? A few but not many....
Starting with Trelolar
Starting with Shaw
Bont (to an extent)
Trading out Fyfe during the byes
Maybe trading Powell-Pepper too early.
Trading spud Lynch in during the byes and rage trading him out 2 rounds later.
Not starting with Doc but starting with spud Shaw.
Not having the next gen mids in my team (Oliver, Kelly)
Apart from the above mentioned a pretty good season.
