Dragons were woeful.  Particularly their right edge defence.  Roosters were making breaks at will down that side.
And dragons had pretty much no possession with which to get decent attacking stats

That sucks

My Aitken and Milne centres combo backfired

At least SST and JDB raked up a good score

Highs and lows this round

Guilty of buying a Dugan as well.  Maubbs owner as well.  And Aitken today.  Also played Guth.

Wonder if Sir T Winfield still reads these threads

If he does it would be awesome if he joined us again next year; whether as the man himself, or under another name.

I don't think he'll be back. The face he deleted his account not just abandoned it makes me think hes pretty serious about not wanting to come back

Thank fuck I got Nofo over Dugan. Dragons are awful.

Stop it KFP

971 with surgess to go. Don't know if that wins me the elim or not :s

864 with Surgess, Fifita and Barba. Should hit the 1000 based on averages, but looking at other scores this round, Barba due a single digit score I reckon.

So i am on 751 with S. Burgess, P. Gallen, A. Fifita, C. Walker and B. Barba left to play. Averages have me hitting 1000+ which I would be ecstatic to hit.

Smashing my H2H opponent this week despite, Hayne, Milne & Aitken.
Hopefully we'll see some Hayne magic the next 2 rounds.

I need to take out the fantasy trophy at work this year

Appreciate the kind words MF and SI! Back then and now. Bren too.

Have indeed been following along most weeks. Avoided during the bye rounds with all the captain cheat talk, but otherwise still a good place for a laugh and valuable info.

As for fantasy, I managed consecutive career-highs the other week with a 944 followed by 1038, then a nice 802 last week.. Aitken may have shot my chances at another 1k this week.

I was eliminated from my main H2H 14-team league Week 1, but chilling with a bye this week in a rando 16-team league, so I'm still following along closely and will be back next year.

Know he didn't play the whole game but surprised to see Milne stink it up so badly...really got exploited by his old team

Aitken's tackle count for the past 4 games has been 13, 13, 17, and 11...step it up son!

Oh wow, that's a nice surprise!  Awesome to have you back mate

Thanks mate! I didn't think anyone would notice me gone, didn't bank on you getting that notification haha.

I almost signed back up after your words, but the shitshow of a cesspool it turned into from the likes of DogStew et al. confirmed that it was a waste of time to continue pointing out that attempting to manipulate your score is cheating, regardless of whether loads of people do it. But fuck it, I know I'll still make the best C choice every week and smoke the pretenders

Regardless of the notification we would have noticed you gone pretty quickly mate.

With what happened, there are quite a few others around here and the FB pages that don't approve of the Loophole.   I know there were a couple of lads who got stuck in about it.  With StuDogg in particular, the bloke has been a stalwart on Sportal/Fanatics for longer than most of us (at least 6 or 7 years now).  Having worked with him in putting the Leagues together a few times over the years he is a genuinely good bloke and is very passionate about his sport and Fantasy.  

He's also a Kiwi, so we make certain allowances for the bloke 

From memory I didn't say all that much the first time, but when you come back after deleting your account in a tanty and then claim that people doing something the software is obviously designed to allow and is promoted by the lone scout are cheats..... you're quite frankly just being rude and begging to be ridiculed. Honestly, you could have just came back and said "yeah I'm still around, I'm sticking to my guns and intend to beat people my way".

Milne's score got tripled in updates. #winning

Obviously the forum shat itself for everyone else as well?
