Walker making 23 tackles (season high) and only missing 2... No one could have predicted that mate haha

Bummer mate, they looked good for a short while, then the real Rabbitohs turned up.

Oh man, I almost choked on my coffee - so good.

Here Beth, I will make you feel better, but only as long as you shut the fuck up and stop moaning about every dumb decision you make - YOU are at fault, not the player.

I have traded out Teddy, Papy, Aitken, Burton at different stages and regret every second of MY stupid decisions.

I am fairly new to Fantasy, so I never had high expectations, but I will learn from my mistakes.

Never trade out a gun (unless injured).

Same situation. Chose Ponga (Knights glasses on) over Teddy as he'd just bannered up. 
Kicking myself. Teddy has always been top 3 gun fullback.
I just chose the wrong gun to trade in.

As for Beth's rant - it's cool. If you can't lose your shit on a forum based around NR: and Fantasy in particular, where can you?
Call it therapy. 

Funnily enough I was actually going to go with Ponga until he bannered. I backed Ponga + the cash to do better than Teddy but once that gap closed I went with Teddy. Shows just how many 50/50 decisions there are that contribute to your ranking

End of round 10 I was ranked just outside 10k. Mid round 12 I'm ranked just outside top 3k

Hope a few got on in fantasy fantasy

He was pretty much just a voice for the team out there. Very minimal general play kicks, no goal kicking, no real physical involvement at all honestly. His foot must be cooked. If he comes out sluggish R14 then he's a sell.

Hastings will be a tough hold next week. His cash could go towards a solid rd 13 player.
I hear what you are saying, he's obviously playing injured. The week off might do him good, but if he does have another sluggish game rd 14 then he loses a stack of cash and you'll prob end up trading him anyway

What a shit rnd 629/13c probably loose more ranks after today. Picking the wrong cows have ruined my season currently got tass, people's and b smith and lee in my 18-21 while I had to play koala and illias in position 16-17. Will have the end this season with alot of mid range players and hope they go food to save my rank which will be hard with only 11 trades left

Anyone else looking at using Kennedy as a cashout for rnd 17 bye once he bottoms out. Also looking at Garner stats will get him also wouldn't of scored bad if it was for his negatives.

Kennedy definitely on my list mate. Good job security, plays better than his scores suggest and has previously averaged decent enough as a fullback

584/12C I think bad round for lot of people. Many have and played the common flops Hastings Scrit

I’m struggling with this decision too. I want to play 17 in round 13 which means he probably needs to go. But he plays every round after that and could get back to form. BUT if he puts up another shit score he tanks heaps of cash.

I think I’m going to sell, treat him as a cow and thank him for the $. He’s on the lower end of players I want to hold over bye/origin.

I can only hold four guns to play 17 and have Cleary, Angus, Teddy and possibly Hynes and Critta playing origin and Ipap bye R13.

But who would you trade of Cleary, Angus, Hynes, Teddy and iPap? I think you gotta play 16.

Critter and Hastings out is mighty tempting
Bit of money sitting there

Similar trajectory went from 2600 end of R9 to mid 300s live ranking now

Not even sure how, but this round having a stormer, 761 with Starling/IPap/Burton/Elliot left

Nofo is 557K

Been slowly clawing back ranks over the last month and a bit in an attempt to get into the top 10k, nothing amazing but that’s my goal.
And in one round it’s looking like I’ll be back to where I was in Round 6/7. Doesn’t seem to matter what I do I just don’t seem to have the fantasy touch.

You and me both

We just need our 17 players to score 100 each in a week and we'll be back up there!

I think so too. If Hynes doesn’t get selected I could maybe do 17 but that feels like a pipe dream.

Busy getting half cut tonight but see the recently instituted Beth pile on was happening. While not quite as boring as the Rabs v Beth micro feud it’s getting there. I think maybe a moratorium on replying to Beth’s dummy spits is required….let’s just treat them like the old Milford the magicians rants, all part of the entertainment.

Peace and love Ringo…..oh wait that’s not me

I said pretty much the same thing earlier Aardvark, must be the 'old heads' thinking the same thing.

The younguns still feel the need to prove their big-dick swinging cred.

Alot of the regulars have dropped off/created alts in the last 1-3 years, very noticeable, a shame.
