Through the high's and lows, this roller coaster won't be stopping until round 26.
For new posters to the site welcome and for returning people (I know you are just here for the free rep vote on every comment haha)
This will be the second year of winging this blog, but will continue to update this multiple times a week.
Will also give my thoughts on my team, why I traded/captained who along with how the previous week played out.
Not everything will make sense, there will be risk and some gambles but essentially the end result will be to finish as high up the ladder as possible.
About myself, I am just an average early 30s kiwi bloke who lives in Sydney and follows the Sharks.
Last year I finished 34th and won the sharks supporters league and have a decent track record starting from(174th in my first year in 2012) or as high as league 2 in The old sportal leagues.
The only blip being 2015 (When real life got involved and fantasy took a back burner)
So would like to think I know what I am doing but every year I learn something new too.
I watch every game, do my homework and more recently have enjoyed the odd punt on the real $$ fantasy sites with a few good wins.
So sit back and relax and hopefully this year will get some luck and not give everyone such a huge head start
Like a daytime sitcom all I can guarantee is there will be drama, though there may be some gems of advice throughout the pages too though simply stopping by and commenting is great too
I also welcome comments and advice or any questions, so feel free to jump in here and post letting me know what you think.
Just remember that no matter how bad you start you can always recover if you put the effort in.
You only need to see how last year played out to see not to give up after round 1

Starting 2017 team
Bye Planning with current team
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Starting team average estimates
775 Low score based on slight increase/role change/return from injury estimate
875 Medium based on predicted score
975 High based on above expectations
Round 1 estimates
Smith 60-70 x2 captain Mcinnes 55-65 (175/190/205)
Fifita 60-70 Kaufusi 30-40 (90/100/110)
Debelin 60-70 Surgess 55-65 Taylor 50-60 Kromwich 40-50 Smat 35-45 Sironen 30-40 (270/300/330)
Lamb 40-50 Elgey 30-40 (70/80/90)
Talakai 30-40 Idris 30-40 (60/80/100)
Gutherson 40-50 Hayne 35-45 RTS 35-45 (110/125/140)
The above shows you how important the captain is and how you live and die by his score.
Based on the above scores, I feel Par would be 800+
