2016 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 49

Got my public league final wrapped up.
L2 I should lose. Need Cartwright to score 85 for me to win. Don't see it happening but that try assist will help at least!

I am actually very lucky with this matchup- completely out of trades and Tauks goes down last week. The only active other player I have is Matt Parcell, who seems to be starting this week. Could very easily have had 16 players (Would have suited the style with which I somehow limped in through all my semis a player down). Best of luck to you bud, should be a good matchup with plenty of unique players! I too sense a Rabbitohs victory here...

Well done mate on your L6 win. Figured I was a bit behind so changed up Mannering for Bodene to create an extra POD. That went well...

Great match up between me and BourbonBrothers in the L5 final. He needed Taupau to score 73 to win, 72 to tie. At the moment he's on 71. All our other Sunday players are the same, so it's all down to that update...

Looks like I'm 8 points clear of SI overall

I needed 120 points from both JTrbo and Mansour to win my h2h grand final league and I did it and it's only my 2nd year playing fantasy!!!

WOOO!!

Well, the wheels sure fell off my season. Only had 6 players score above 41 this week. Disgraceful.
Looking forward to doing much better next year.

Haha yeah it's a tight one and didn't expect to even be in with a shot.
Cuts me a bit seeing JTrbo with his big score on the bench but that's the way the cookie crumbles sometimes.
Well played anyways, funny how we can start with 2 completely different teams at start of year and finish with the same team minus one.
Would love to have made some late trades but ran out early so happy to have made it to the end in one piece.

Looks like I will finish at 40th place overall and look a good shot to win the $200 voucher winning Sharks overall.
Would never have guessed I would have got here after the start I had, has definitely been a roller coaster

I was shocked man- I saw that Parcell had to make 41 for me to win (he only made 27 btw), so I couldn't work out why I suddenly beat you by 58 points, then I saw you had dumped Manners. Thought you had it in the bag when Ryan James went huge tbh, should have iced me by 14 but for tinkering. Good battle though mate, my final lucky escape to complete the theme of my finals series.

A solid 904 points pre-updates..

Not bad with Captain Hayne

Would've still beaten both grandfinalist at my work place

I think I even gained some spots on the overall ladder

830 pre-updates. Going to finish my 3rd year of Fantasy ranked at 1531 which is way down on my 398 from last year. I don't know where it all went so wrong really, you throw so much effort into it only to end up with nothing. It's a lot like life I guess.

Oh well I'll get back to the triple digit finish next year.

Taupau updated to 73.

Actually, looking back, Taupau's 73 leaves us level on 915. Don't know what happens now. Bourbon was top of the league ladder before playoffs but I have more overall points.

Congrats to filth on winning L2

If my phone is correct I think I've won the eliminator.  25th overall, not a bad year.

Ladies and Gentleman it has been a pleasure this year. Finished 650th overall and finished round 26 with a very undramtic 872. My last two trades this year were a disaster...Hayne and SKD, but that's all part of the fun.

Look forward to catching up with you all for the 2017 pre season debates...so I guess I'll see you all tomorrow

fucking great year mate! I scraped into the top 1000 and just inside the top 32 so kept my place in L2 for next year! Not a 1000 in sight but consistent 900s towards the back end got me there! Into NFL fantasy for me now

Looks like L5 has gone to Bourbon. Also the bridesmaid in the Roosters group - second there so miss out on the vouchers. Should have picked a dumber club.

But first in the Fanatics group, and 21st overall after being about 9,000th in my first go last year. Onwards and upwards...

Jumped 200 ranks in the last round to crack the top 1000. Best finish i have had so far

Finished rank 599, slightly down on last year which is disappointing.  Won both my work overall and head to head league though which is nice.

Will be nice now to watch the finals and not think about fantasy the whole time while watching haha.

+1.

Contemplating taking a year off from Fantasy next year and just going back to enjoying watching the footy without any Fantasy drama thrown in each and every week.
