With Siro as my 17th man, HTF/Fui as 18th/19th and Talau/Randall red dots does that seem worth it?

I’d hold your trade, your bound to need it for one of the last 2 rounds.

Could whoever has religiously downvoted Rabbits21 posts today please send me a PM explaining why.  It will remain confidential but would like to get to the bottom of it.  Downvoting friendly/positive/congratulatory posts is a terrible look, and, quite frankly, childish and deadset pissweak.  

Tracking it takes time so would rather you just let me know so it can potentially be sorted.

The thumbs up/thumbs down is there to give feedback, not to systematically create negativity and pick on someone.  If you don't agree with a post or it upsets you, no problem, give it a downvote.  But when someone contributes positively to the Forum such as Rabbits has tonight with posting updates and congratulating people for their success, only to cop a downvote for each post, then that is just really bad form, and again, pissweak.

That gets all the hate... Why is it the same user time and time again? The Internet isn't a safe place anymore... Maybe for his/her own good, a small hiatus would should be implemented.

I blocked weeks ago so you'll find in your investigation I haven't downvoted in a while. I liked the updates downdates posts but apart from that just seems to annoy other users.

Hopefully they do the right thing like you have and put on block as well. If someone is that annoyed by another poster then that would seem the logical thing.

3 rounds left is a bit risky but 2 or 1 might be leaving it late to get a points boost.

I've also got 1 left. I'm holding it until there is a red dot in my 17 even if that means the last week

Imagine someone like Cleary, Carrigan, McInnes being rest in the last week and instead of taking a 0 you can trade in a guy that should score 50 with a much higher ceiling. I don't think I can find a 50 point upgrade to my 17 with 3 weeks to go

Well the upgrade is only worth the difference between your 18th man and whoever you bring in (assuming your 18th man works positionally) So 50 points is the upper end of what the trade is worth.

I'm out of trades, so its irrelevant for me, but if Cleary Carrigan or McInnes get rested I can replace them with BSiro or Luke Brooks so not a terrible replacement

Just looking over my team and who might get a week off, I don't own too many that you would expect get a week off.. 12 of my top 17 are actually in bottom 8 sides Three Titans players in my final side is not something I expected.

It's only Tedesco, Cleary, Moses, Ponga and Pearce who will be playing finals football. Given the jostling for positions it might not be until the last round that any of those get a freshen up, if at all.

Obviously Ponga ~may~ miss this week, if he does I'll just #ridewithHTF

3 trades for me and that could be more dangerous as I have more options. Not having Ponga would be massive too if he has a rest.

Lucy on the cull but don't have any funds to get anyone better. I'll see how much Moses is at lockout.

In fact MTB is only around 40 points behind that dude who runs the OTL fantasy community who is sitting in 4th for overall. Those 40 points could easily be made up.

Cheers mate.

The top 15 or so have really bunched up in the last week or two. Anything could happen. Seems to be a good variety in players owned too

Yeah well done MTB. Killing it.

Just noticed teams in the top 10 have a 1000 average per round, absolutely mental

Wonder how it'll affect pricing next year with scores being massive each week post 6-again. I imagine they introduce set restart as negative stat if it is kept but I don't think it'd make that much difference

Cotter could be worth a punt as 17th man over Siro.

A season high 1125 for the round was a bit below par, lost about 20 spots. I guess not having the C on Haas, McInnes, Teddy or Ponga contributed to that. Not owning Mofo (who finally got some TBs by the stats people) or Peachey didn't help either.
Lucy, SCrichton, and Siro (for Yeo) my low scoring players.

1160 with a 19 average at CTR will never happen again haha

Nice bounce back mate.
