Cardigan? I’m looking at him depending on how restings play out

He'd be my pick if I had a trade left.

DarkKnight wrote:Well gotta put this one down as a bad round as have dropped from 3rd to 5th. Only 20 points from 3rd so hopefully with two trades left I can get back up there. Losing Cook, Aitken and Fifita for a half hurt my team the most against those around me.

On a positive note I think I have snuck home in the eliminator final to go with Lord of the Byes.

Hopefully Fifita is good to go and lets reduce these covid iso rules by Friday so I can have Cook.

Lovefool

Updates to come but looks like wk2 was tougher in the Mixer than last week.

I followed up 556 with only 380, but only dropped from 56th to 57th

Bigger rank fall in the FOG, 1st down to 3rd - EasyTiger in the top 10 overall and Camo having me covered too

It should fix itself within the next hour or so. It sometimes takes a little while to recognize that an 18th man zero is actually a DNP

Cheers, this is what happened. I’d never seen it before. I lose enough points with poor decisions, need to make sure I get these ones!

Broncos are a entirely different side with Reynolds, Carrigan & Cobbo. they could put a score on the dragons quite easily

Reminder that this is a thing.

I was out most of Saturday so scored a 0 for Cook but still managed to scrape 335 thanks to Upton's 59. Wish I'd had the guts to captain her over Iz!

The team is cooked. Haas has clocked out. A bunch of them just not putting in the small effort areas. Can see it being close and maybe a POD like Cobbo or Oates racks up a 50+

Down to 39.  I'd play Gagai.

Jeez I'm glad I listened to this, solid advice as always mate.

Only had to play him these last two weeks, but Gagai has just about been my best buy of the season - hell of a pod.

Well I'm ranked 1036 too, so one of us is lying

Some good scores well done. I had 6 red dots the carnage has hit me hard this week and I had no trades left scored 779 with 15 so around 110 under par. No Cook, Aitken, Booth, Kennedy, Mbye or Matamua. C Hynes was underwhelming 56, Cotter, 43, Lolo 39, Munster, 24, Teddy 37, Angus 37. Also not having Douiehi has really hurt me. Rank dropped from 576 to 889.

In the Bundy Mixer I scored 409 and had a big rank rise from 425 to 100 rank. Up to 4th in the fanatics league.

984 all out, me.

You’re 30 points off the lead for the top monthly score.

Bit annoyed I didn’t see that McInnes is under HOK when Cook was ruled out as he was starting but happy I swerved to Tonegato C (supposedly due update to 56)

With the 2 grand finalists playing each other (Roosters v Dragons) might be a good chance to swerve. In finals after this week it’ll be interesting to see the Cleary v Hynes split

I had no idea that McInnes was available under HOK as well - so settled for Robson.
Some of the player positions are bizarre - iPap at MID despite pretty well always playing edge, same for Amber Hall.
I was considering rolling the dice on a Captain Doueihi in the halves instead of Hynes, but then discovered he's WFB.

Fifita only playing 48 mins was a terrible result for me in Overall & I probably lose the Fanatics SC final by 4 points due to it, but it has played in my favour for the Mixer I think.

Thanks, I hadn’t noticed but I knew I was having a good month. I updated to 996 and that’s a round rank of 64. I’ll have to see if it’s enough after lockout.

897 from my 16. Managed to move from 28th to 25th. I'll be sweating on Cook and Fifita and anyone else who might be rested. Any chance Barnett back? He's listed as rd25.. I'm 104 points clear of 2nd in the Cowboys league, so in with a chance even if I'm short, which is likely. I hope I have at least 15 players to give myself a shot.

888 takes me back from 22nd to 24th. Expected more of a fall after the Storm/Roosters game, so happy enough. Hopefully Cook and Fifita find their way in this week. My goal was to maintain a top 100 finish, hopefully there's no way I can drop 76 spots even with a couple short........

Yeah I probably would've gone Robson anyway but only saw McInnes is HOK last night. He's not even DPP in Fantasy this season, listed as a MID, so it's really bizarre for him to have a position he hasn't played since 2020.

But like you said, there are many strange position calls, especially on the NRLW side.
