ELIMINATOR 2023

Yeah that small walking carpet Cookie Monster might aswell head back to his trashcan now after those comments about overall rank vs Eliminator glory.

Snatch has already lost my vote for the softcock award, so I'll be keeping an eye of the rest of you for a replacement nom nomination. Rob and I are a team, so of course we're gonna shake hands and go back to fucking up the fan favs after our match-up.

My next victim UKJC will be busy trying to loop Cruyff and Madonna into his team for their 1 goal in 4 games while I've already claimed the bracket championship trophy. Toughest bracket too no less with names like Booze and Rob.

ROUND 23 RESULTS

A silly, silly scoring week where the lowest score was 1076 and a guy who scored 1159 lost.

Scores may be big but the field has got small enough that its easier to type the results than do pics...



BRANDON AND SANDON BRACKET

Bish's Beasts (17) 1162 - 1159 Awana Mafia (33)
NRLFF Super Duper Steelers (9) 1114 - 1162 Winnie's Blues (25)

For the second year in a row, UKJC is going deep into the draw. WT continues a brilliant rookie eliminator tournament campaign, beating some loser.


MING AND JING BRACKET

Green Schist Hooligans (5) 1146 - 1196 Captain-Role Model-Aardvark (12)
Gus Gould's House of Pleasure (13) 1129 - 1153 Reanimated Freaks (4)

Aardvark managed the highest of all the high scores, nearly 1200! He was also the first underdog to win in this bracket since the qualifiers. And there was no happy finish at the House of Pleasure (ytsb).


NUTCHER AND EUTCHER BRACKET

NRLFF - Easy Tiger (3) 1141 - 1125 Faringdon-Swirl (46)
Pacey's Best (54) 1188 - 1153 Me O My Yes Boy (6)

ET now the highest remaining seed in the draw. He will play the lowest in the bracket final, after Pacey's monster score kept the underdog dream alive.


iKATOA AND eKATOA BRACKET

CNKo de Mayo (7) 1186 - 1076 Pretty Pretty Pretty Good (10)
NRLFF - Liddle Schoupp of Horrors (18) 1180 - 1091 NRLFF - Rhinooooo (2)

Last years champ The Dark Knight falls to Enchanted Glossy Flamingo. He is the next course for the Cookie Monster, who gobbled up a Rhino this week.

Ah Pacey's Best - we meet again.

It was an honour to lose to you in the SC league final last year.

I wish you all the best for the week ahead and hope you eclipse my scoring...


















in SuperCoach...















and in VSDT...



But in NRL Fantasy, with all due respect, I hope to beat you by an unprecedented margin

PS > Your team looks fantastic, and I think this will go down to the wire

Hey Easytiger,
Did I do that last year in Supercoach? I don't remember what I had for breakfast this morning let alone last year's Supercoach final. Because it's you, if I lose this, it wouldn't be so bad, but if you don't mind, I would like to go a little further.
Seriously mate, the best of luck to you and may the best team win.

Would love to engage in a bit of pre match shit talking but I'm not sure @robertneville is a real person and no one wants to get owned by a bot

Decent start for me jagging a try from Garrick. Match-up looks to be:

Garrick 50
Ramien
Murray
IPap
Bula/VTW

vs

Dedwards 37
Bateman
Lemuelu
Manu
Munster

If the latter could all shit the bed this week, that'd be great

A bot cannot own a person. Bots are computer programs designed to perform specific tasks and do not have the capability to own or possess anything, including people or animals. Ownership is a legal and social concept that applies to individuals or entities, not to artificial intelligence or bots.

Best of luck in our matchup.

Well that was a bad decision to bring in Matterson this week.

My bank account details are as follows

Aardvark Holdings Pty Ltd
etc etc

247 from my 5 all done. Got greedy playing VTW over Bula

160 from UKJC's 4. Munster needing 87 to steal the win. Not impossible, but pretty close to it.

I'll be cheering on Aardvark in the other QF as we both have Haas on the bye next week if we make it through, while Nev does not.

Easytiger to mop up the other 2 brackets for the final showdown.

My first time competing in the eliminator comes to an end.

Congratulations on your win @Aardvark

Good luck for the rest of the competition.

Yeah, he's gonna need it when he runs into the mouth from the south next week

Commiserations to UKJC though. One of the quiet achievers around here. Timezone a decent cover story, but definitely one of those hoarding the good oil.

What do I need? Top 20 in the FOG to get an invite?

Nah, no luck needed just use the usual passive aggressive approach

So confident I’m not even going to look at your team, I’ll just assume mine is better

Thanks!

Bit of bad luck for you covered my questionable decision making this week but relieved to find out you’re a real human being!!!

I'll help you out so you don't have to scroll down a few places.

Poor man's Drink Latrell vs Drinkwater

Poor man's Yeo Frizell vs Yeo

Poor man's Ramien Manu vs Ramien (didn't you trade him out the week before I traded him in? oooffstones.jpg)

Poor man's Haas' replacement vs Haas' replacement (Bula or DRussell if traded in cancelled)

Probably only 4 different. Not sure about Lemu's status. Looking forward to an all-Tigers final with whoa whoa Eaaasyboy

Easytiger was way too good for me, although I would have won if I brought in Drew Hutchinson instead of Ryan Matterson, ( but in what universe would that have happened ).

The best of luck for the rest of the tournament mate.

Congrats @WT Winfield, too good for me this week.
Best of luck to the final 4.

Thanks mate. You were really unlucky with Lemu and Munster was just one play away from running me down still.

Hopefully no more bad luck for your team and another strong finish is on the cards
