Sportsdeck VSDT 2022 part 1

Really don't think I 100% need to trade this week unless it's sideways-ish trades for R17 numbers.

Tempting to trade Haas and/or Tohu though..

Edit: Talked myself into doing Tohu - Barnett. Watch him bust out an 80 in the homecoming game now lol

A bit frustrating that we can see our eliminator opponents.
I'll make my two trades that are best for my team in the long run I suppose but would like to know who to counter as reserves.

I gather that was a typo as I can NOT see mine.

Yeah, can was supposed to be can't.

I emailed them twice through the week re Eliminator, no response.

Thanks.

I would go Fermor. He's more consistent and has outscored Tago the past 3 weeks.

I got a reply and can see mine now.

Urgh my one is gonna be close. Basically if the Panthers go well, I'll go well. Already losing cuz I benched Koula, but will see how things go

Still can’t see my eliminator opponent

Same here.

Just now have seen my Eliminator opponent at half time of the 3rd game.
What a load of shit.

It's really shit that eliminator opponents only came up after 3 games. I'm lucky my opponent isn't great but for those with closer contests where a trade can make the difference it's not a good look.

Luckily for me my eliminator opponent matched me in having Koula outside the 17.

I have a 117 point lead, having played 3 extra players.

Projections have me winning, but she has some boom/bust guys like Cobbo/Savage in his 17 who will likely decide the fixture.
If I have a big lead after today's games I can swap Nofo out of my team and play Savage myself as insurance

Shite my eliminator opponent has a very good chance of beating me...he is 74 pts ahead of me with 1 more player played. However projections has me beating him by 12 pts so it could be really close. I may have to use my last trade boost to get Cook which he has but with the players he has left Cook is the most dangerous so it's a tactical move to eliminate the edge he has with Cook.

WL if you think you are still a chance at placing overall don't spend a trade just to try and get an eliminator win.

Bringing Cook in might be a good move anyway, so don't rule it out straight away

I still have no eliminator opponent - wahhhhhhhh! What’s the email to contact them?  

24pts behind but 3 more to play. Should get through the round

Thanks for the advice bro & it is a very good point but I'd actually planned to get Cook before I looked at my eliminator opponent so it's just a coincidence he has Cook too.
