    If the last two seasons are anything to go by 5 wont be enough!

    I've been thinking about my trades & looking to round 15 which I'm struggling & thinking I have 14 for round 12 before trades which is probably enough & bringing in a couple of round 15 players.

    Neillo wrote:Few questions.......

    Silly one to start with: When does the season finish? Am I right in saying that the H2H playoffs start in round 23 but the overall keeps going through to round 26

    Also....hoping someone can confirm here:
    According to the "help" section of the fantasy site (under "key dates"), we get an extra trade for the byes on rnds 12, 15 and 19 - not round 18
    I think I'd always assumed we'd get an extra trade for the big byes (i.e. rnd 18)

    Is the help section wrong or have I just been assuming wrong this whole time? Shocked
    (or.....most likely...I've misread something and will "gently" be pointed out the error of my mistake Wink  )

    Not sure if the first question was answered.

    So yes, Overall runs through to the last game of the last round.

    H2H format is customisable so you would need to check the settings of your particular Leagues. There should be an "ABOUT" tab there. Since FanHub took over, I think the default start round for Finals is actually Round 22, not 23, and finishes in Round 25.

    Looking around my Leagues for this round, it looks like 11 is about the average, with an average score of 300. Now clearly that score is not right, but the player numbers are.

    I am heading for a score of 614 from 15 players if everyone scores last week's number (or their avg if they DNP, and assuming 20 for Hughes). I've dropped off in the last month, 758th down to 1582nd, so I'd like to bounce right back up again... particularly considering I'm only 104 points behind 758th.

    might give Jarome Hughes a crack. he should get both big byes and that will more than likely be more points than Su'A can score from the one game he will get (tonight).

    its not that big of a deal and purely a cash out so just looking for whoever will pick up the most points over the big byes from basement price.

    i 100% give the cowboys a good chance of beating the dragons so maybe he can pick up some attacking points.

    on the other hand, the knights are going to be on the end of a terrible belting by a frustrated Eels team, i give Feeny between 5 and 15 points for the match Very Happy

    So the consensus here is that Radradra is a keeper right?
    Doing Ash Taylor to Semi wouldn't be regarded as sideways?

    I've decided to go Radradra over ET with round 15 in mind. Hopefully Semi carves up, scores 3 tries & ET misses a tonne of tackles.

    well we all seem pretty well set up for this round.

    hopefully there are a fair few people in the top 2000 ish that arent... ha

    i dont see how you can really have any more than 10 or 11 solid players for this week without your overall 17 being fairly weak.

    Hopefully my rank of 9,193 will improve markedly with this 17. Leaves me with 99k.

    I have about 17 Keepers, only need to get the 2 top fantasy guns in the halves, upgrade Parcell to Smith after Origin, and maybe upgrade one of the CTRs

    I bought Semi in purely for byes; I've never really owned him ever. Him and Mau actually never owned and bught both in last week which made the Monday night game pretty exciting. Semi was at the expense of Feeney though which could bite me on the arse.

    I don't think from Taylor is sideways. Infinitely better byes and one has peaked and the other has bottomed out. Taylor was only ever a cow to step to a keeper later; you have achieved that.
