Hey Milchy,
I had myself at 612.  You’ll see my trades in/out weren’t  consistent with the team I picked.  I traded Douglas out, but accidentally left him in my team list.  Accidentally over-rode Steve Turner in my team list.  
Hopefully not an issue to anyone, especially given my pathetic score.
Cheers
JM

622 with Turner for me

Nigel Plum got 10 points as 21st man - did you account for that?

Not sure what the head to head matchups are - but there are some very close scores this round, lots of teams within just a handful of points of each other

Is that Welshy's lowest score so far?

absolutely monstered by Easy Tiger who will overtake me for the lead handsomely now. fair play

I didn't bring in Laffranchi because I thought it was suss and it destroyed me this weekend, missed 78 points when he scored twice in 2 games, got Hindy in who misses 2 of next 3 games. Those points alone would of probably kept me on top

Can't complain too much other trades went well in round previous and swings and roundabouts

If I'm honest, if there wasn't a sudden bandwagon I probably would've sold him.

For now, but there's a long way to go in this comp!
I do love bye rounds

Oh yeah, forgot to add Plum. Cheers

I've always liked the idea of Laffranchi, but my memory of him was that he became a fantasy beast when he moved to the Titans. I can see he would've been a great pickup prior to this weekend in retrospect, but was largely disappointing before that IMO.
Team lists don't suggest any real change in role, so probably a lucky blip for those who jumped on.

Latest in the series of long-dropped players finally coming good - Clinton Schifcofske and his 106 points

Long dropped except by me, hence my atypically good round for those wondering.

Like Merritt, a player I wouldn’t have bought without some vague knowledge of 2006, and a player I would’ve sold long ago without some vague knowledge of 2006. Although tbf he has been solid 30s/40s just needing some tries. Whereas Merritt is shitto winger with no base.

Anyway , the lesson is sometimes a little knowledge is dangerous. But for R14 it’s been pretty good.

Hey Milchy,
My team error coming through here too. I have myself at 731. Difference due to Turner / Douglas.
Cheers

He was scoring 40s and 50s without tries before getting injured, and scored 57 without a try in R12. To me doesn’t seem to be too many FRFs with that avg and it’s too early to have an NPR/AE situation and avoid them altogether. The 78s w/tries are nice, but I was happy enough to get 45-50s over Origin from him.

Although it's not a great score, I'll take my 666. I was actually too embarrassed to post my trades this week, lol, as they just seemed like really risky/silly moves but I'm happy to say they all seemed to have gone okay. I brought in Rovelli, Wicks and Travis Norton for their low BE's to try and get a bit of cash. Fourth trade was Friend, just for guaranteed points on offer in round 14. So I missed all the massive scores this week but all of them did pretty solid and to be honest better than I anticipated. Kept my lowly scores ticking over and hopefully earned a bit of coin.

Sure I'd have love to have had Webster and Laffranci and Hayne for round 14 and it seems that when these things get talked about there's good reason. But decent results anyway. Rovelli particularly solid both rounds.

Did not notice tll out, guess he and a couple others will be on the way put

New thread is up in case anyone missed it.
