This round was obviously high scoring due to 2 games going well into golden point, but still goes to show, if you aren't pushing 1000 every week at this point of the season, your team is just not good enough.
I've been knocking out near 1000s in the full rounds for weeks and literally haven't changed from being 30th-40th. My ambitions have reduced from getting in the top 10 to staying in the top 50.
Literally everybody in the top 50 has Smith, Fifita, Graham, Mannering, Merrin, SJ and Aitken in their squad, and on top of that would estimate Friend, James, Whitehead, Cleary, BJ, Croker, Ted are over 50% ownership, with Cartwright, Gallen, Munster and Barba not far off. Hard to find a POD who's going to score significantly more than them on average. (I guess Mansour did this week)
