Top 500 is still quality ranking (and you're at upper end of that). You have a fair few trades left as well

I guess it’s just gonna be waiting for everyone else to fall off a cliff

Not 100% sure why. Yeah it’s a good score but it’s what everyone is getting so what’s the point haha

Most people only post when they get a good score so I assume the scores posted are mainly above average

Have you got trades?

Max traders run out next week.

A lot of the top 1000 will have 4 or less. If injury carnage continues and you can maintain a playing 17, that's how you will climb the ranks

7 but probably using one on Norman next week. That seems the norm around here and a few mates outside of here have left?

About average I am feeling for the week again. But quietly moved up the rankings into the Top 2000 at the moment.

872/12(c) with K. Mann, C. Randall, R. Papenhyuzen, K. Ponga, and B. Best.

Would have liked Taulau or Youngs scores inside my 17 but happy so far this week.

Im hoping that with 9 trades in the bank I can make some big moves late.

783/13c with Pearce, Ponga, Pap, and Randall to go. Seems a bit below par, but happy enough.

Bit disappointed with my Havili trade in. I was even the one commenting how much faith Ricky Stuart had in Starling. I did think Havili would get more of a run in the forwards, but I guess I overlooked Batemans return and also couldn't foresee CHN joining the Raiders. Anyway something to learn from!

TU - Randall
TD - Mann

I never considered Randall or Mann. Having now considered it for about two seconds, going with SuperMann all day.

Fucking hell this year is tough

775/11 - J. Paulo, Mann, Pappy, Ponga, C. Smith & Randall to play. If those rumours of C. Smith out are true I have Young's 58 to sub in so not stressed about that.
Having Young & Luai in my npr's scoring 50+ is great for the cash & atm both are playable in my 17. I might go no trades in round 13 although I have the cash to go Mann to DCE which is very tempting but that would mean getting rid of my man Mann who I love having in my team.

I’m fully prepared for Randall to be a dud trade. Got the feeling

Really wish I had jumped on Starling but oh well

Problem is so many teams are getting 1000 every week that its hard to make consistent ranking gains.

I was hovering around the 1000 mark, then round 7 I scored 965 and jumped into the top 100.
1000+ every week since then and can't crack the top 50 (Might do it this week partially depends on how Randall goes and how many of the top teams have him in their 17, or if they are many loops to be added in current rankings)

Yeah it's tough gaining ranks up top it seems like the only way is to have
1. an outstanding Captaincy choice
2. Avoid the injury of the week
3. Have a perfect round where all your players score well

This week I don't have 1 and 3 (Lomax) and will have to do with an on par score yet again.

I agree about the high scores re rank & it seems you have to score 1050+ to gain any meaningful ground in the ranks.

Caught the end of news segment, Did I just hear Best is out? Something to do with visiting his mum and covid protocol. Wasn’t that a few weeks ago?

818 with Ponga, Pappy, Moses, Randall to go. Well off the pace it seems.

After catching up on all the unread pages I noted Bethany B getting a bit of criticism for so called "moaning". It wasn't that bad & didn't last long but I'm siding with Bethany B because this is a forum where you can vent for as long as you want imo. The so called "moaning" doesn't worry me because I live with someone who has dementia & the moaning starts from when they get up until they go to bed haha.

I think most people are expecting a 50 from him which is definitely not out of the question.

I wouldn't be surprised if he gets 35-40 and I hope there isn't seventeen pages of people freaking out if he does.

What’s everyone’s worst trade out for the year ? Obviously koroisau looks one now, Mann at a time he exploded and Robson a few weeks ago

879 + RFM, Ponga, Best and Moses. Really could be anything between 1000-1100
