Already have him, looking at whether it’s worth trading him or Smith. Smith I think will drop some so will grab him back later

That's like the last words of Custer: "its only Sitting Bull, we'll get him later" !

Excellent! I was thinking we were waiting til Saturday for more games!

I was thinking that I Need to pay more attention to this comp but now I have decided that I am paying exactly the right amount of attention to it.

What?

I think I might have about 20k left ITB after these trades. I’m sure a cow will let me know if I’ve milk things to much.

Out are Sonny Bill, Frank Puletua, Antonio K and Darius. Why where the last 3 ever in my team?
In comes Fien, Thompson, Tilse and the Lillyman.
Due to auto-fill the team will again be the same for both rounds.

The 2006 POD Champion of Champions: Round 15

This weeks owner of the top scoring POD may suprise... it's Verbal - Congrats on Ryan Hoffman's huge score of 86!
Broncos fans could relate to the frustration "Darbo" is creating for two of our top three POD champ contenders.

R15 - THE TOP 8 AND THE BOTTOM 4:

Round 15 is officially the round of MS

R15 SCOREBOARD:

7th spot is only 4 points off 3rd place.

R15 OVERALL STANDINGS:

The 2006 POD Survivor Head to Head series: Round 15

A huge week for the POD Survivor comp.
A single point margin when #2 Empyreal takes on #3 Code Delta.
A single point margin when #10 GreenMachine takes on #11 MoanaMan.
And a surprising result when #4 takes on current last place Verbal...

ULTIMATE POD H2H SURVIVOR:

MrStephenB has had the unluckiest draw to date (he's scored the 4th most points, yet somehow managed to have 9 losses), this week he gets a win. Is this the start of a run to the top 8?

ULTIMATE POD H2H SURVIVOR LEADERBOARD:

Building some bank for bringing in Hindy

Laffranchi, D wicks, JT and P Graham out

L thompson, Carney, Hayne and Tilse in. By my count that gives me $633,000 in the bank and 17 for both rounds (although one is thurling so let's say 16.5)

Brent Webb
Jake Webster
Tony Martin
Sione Faumuina
Steve Turner
Greg bird
Todd Carney
Dane Tilse
Cameron Smith
Trevor Thurling
Corey Parker
Lance Thompson
Paul Gallen
Shane webcke
Evarn Tuimavave

Is anyone not bringing in Lance Thompson and Dane Tilse?

Tilse is in. I'm trying to decide between Thompson and Kennedy.

robelgordo wrote:Is anyone not bringing in Lance Thompson and Dane Tilse?

It's as much about defense as attack

robelgordo wrote:Is anyone not bringing in Lance Thompson and Dane Tilse?

I think Lance Thompson might be the first player to go from zero ownership to instant "Too-pop" majority ownership player in the POD comp.
Kinda funny considering he's basically been gunning it the whole time...

robelgordo wrote:Is anyone not bringing in Lance Thompson and Dane Tilse?

No Thompson for me. About $20k short. Tilse, yes.

Tradeless Fantasy Results

Moanaman still number 1 and his trades to date still hasn't caught up with his best 17 from his round 1 team.
MrStephenB is another whose round 1 team could have done better than all the effort that he's put in to date.

I'm assuming its everyone getting rid of Hindmarsh for two rounds and finding the next likely replacement.
Tilse is cheap AF and scored 45 last round. No surprises he's coming in for everyone!

Yeah it’s a weird one at face value but in the context of the season it  makes sense.

Not a superstar player so people started with and bought in more known guns early. Might’ve also thought Gal return takes pts from him. Then at R10/11 it would’ve made perfect sense to get him... but he got an injury.

I hadn’t even considered Thompson... I keep thinking he’ll revert to something a lot lower. Possibly repeating mistakes of prior years where I stayed off players like Semi because “he can’t keep that up”
