NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 38 - Nice try, but no cigar

I hope ET takes it down but a bit early to say it's "locked up" when he's nine points ahead of second and it's pretty easy to trade from Grant to Robson. Second has Hynes as well so it's probably down to that.

Rev's in there as well with his poddy team

Fanatics for the top three spots

Webster just said CNK will be stood down next week

Well Fantasy wasn't great to me this week, felt like I was just hanging on by max trading, going to take a tiny step back and make sure I'm making the right trades

Only 794 for me this week, was floating around 1400 which I was happy with, but now I'm 2520

I have Haas/CNK/Walsh/E Katoa/Alamoti/Hammer/Miller all in my 17 this week - At least two of those are probable trade outs


Is what it is, hopefully a nice big cow comes along this week

RTS to Fullback I guess

Somehow made ground with an 856 despite carrying Host and Katoa. Must be some carnage out there. Score of 6969  (pray for no updates!) and a rank of 1785

DWZ at FB can't rush out of line on defence like did for Storm try

Great work EasyTiger! You're leading the monthly too, and that means dollars or merch. I'm 11th in that, and can see Booze and Beth in top 20 too.

Revs sitting at 5th for the month ! Kfc ? lol

I was wondering who that was lmao, I forget most people's team names in here if they aren't the same as their forum name. You got me in the L7 H2H as well

883 pending, looks like I gained a few ranks to 128 even with Katoa and CNK in the last game but let’s see tomorrow. Still lost ground in the FOG though so fanatics are flying

Coates in boats ?

How do u view the point total for each month ? It shows the rankings, but no separate point total


Edit: oopsy, its clear now

Sorry man was talking about Katoa, my bad for not explaining who I was referring to

Ah all good mate, yeah if Katoa is only out for one round I probably hold for a bit - will have a big BE though, we'll see what TLW throws up.

910 despite 6 players sub-40.

Enough to move up to 124 overall. Not enough to win my L5 H2H

nice

969 to go with my earlier post of having 6969 points coming in to today. Strange times!

Thanks, all for the congrats posts, it's much appreciated.

The community here should all feel like they own a piece of helping someone get to rank one for however long it lasts (might only be an hour) - I've learnt a heck of a lot from the collective brilliant minds here - so chalk this one up to all the positive mentoring, reflections on lessons learned, groupthink with just a tiny little easytiger twist (and a dose of good fortune)

Good night!

Keep anything hot, away from my ring please

Rectangle crushing it, BL Soylent.

Strong showing from L5 this week.

894 even with CNK, Katoa, Ford and Carty.

Takes me from 2666 to 1548, continuing my upward trajectory

R1 - 20812
R2 - 20945
R3 - 7774
R4 - 3878
R5 - 3496
R6 - 3069
R7 - 2666
R8 - 1548

921 with the up/down dates to come

Funny how a great round always leaves you wanting more… rueing the not doing Katoa to Manu, especially as now I have CNK to deal with as well.

so yeah maybe my best round rank in 2-3 seasons but was on a flyer before those two HIAs.

On a non-fantasy note, missed the Dragons due to an extra u10 soccer training session but the result looks like one I should watch later at least.

Fanatics carving up.

More than halved my overall rank this week, only managed a 20% rank rise in the FOG
