Anyone else still in eliminator?

got beaten i'm out i lost by around 60 pts

No, I'm out. I lost the week before 1155-1156.

Still in, won by 30. Nearly lost to a retro Cartwright performance

Think I’ve just about got the upper hand on paper

the guy i played has a great squad but he has tino who'll miss 3 games he scored 1089

I'm still in the Eliminator and can easily just trade Cogger to Cleary this week.

Only downer is that I'll only have 2 trades left after that, but I pretty much have to do it.

My team - $146k and 2 trades left:

I should be fine this week, as my opponent has way too many Dolphins in his backline (Hammer VTW Lem Isaako Niko) and has no cover for them (he also has Kini, Pauga and Munro, none of whom are named this week)

that looks like a comfortable win for you.
l'm finding it impossible to loop cleary (vc) & hynes (c) as they are both the in last 2 games & in my case all my 14-17 would have played already. SJ is the perfect vc this week but then you have to decide who to cap between cleary & hynes & that's tough this week.

What are you views?

I've got the captaincy firmly locked on Cleary, with Hynes as a backup option in case of late fuckery (I doubt it but you never know).

I have the VC on Grant because I think the Raiders will put up more of a fight than the Knights will, but honestly it doesn't really matter because I think Cleary is easily number one this week.

I’m still in the eliminator too. Have 16 trades and a couple of trade boosts left, so hoping that holds me in good stead.

Did two cash outs last week so have the money to go Cogger to Cleary and Tino to Fifita this week.

gun shopping feels good. Cleary, latrell and fifita in for gutho, cogger and carty.

Will roll out

Grant
AFB, Jtap, Haas
Hoop, JDB, Preston, Fifi, Harris
Hynes, SJ, Cleary
Manu, Holmes
Mitch, Garrick, Bula

Robson 18th man

That's a very nice team. I really want to go Gutho to Trell this week too, but I would only have one trade left if I did, so I can't really justify it.

That's a great looking team. What are you going to do next week when AFB, Harris and SJ are on the bye? I have the same 3 Warriors and trying to work out how to cover for them is not easy.

Thanks, had to reverse the mitchell trade so looking for an alternative to Gutho and kept Carty instead of harriss.

Think I might bring in Marzhew for Guth now or maybe Dedwards as his price is tempting and surely with cleary back he can start smashing some of those early season scores again.

What's your overall rank? Time for a big finish.
And WL finally traded Cleary in. Has a new captain.

Would you trade Preston to average 2RF, only have 10k ITB. AE is Schuster or KHaas 38

Eliminator matchup:
Me - 674 + Edwards + Cleary C + Hynes + Garrick (AE as above)
Opponent: 721 + Cleary + Hynes C + Nikora
