However, have been trading heavily and with my few planned trades expect to have 12/17/12/17 for the other byes, so will drop back, BUT they should be quality players and other than bringing Smith back in for Round 20 and maybe Tommy Turbo should have final 17 set by Round 16.

Yeah, just noticed you up there, that is tremendous. If you can your final team together that early then the byes hit is worth it.

Naaaaaw

Seems to be less of us having shockers this year, and a few that started bad making up good ground early. Yes, wonderful bunch of posters!

I'm starting to think at that price JBrom is a trade in when considering he plays the next 5 games straight.

I'm still looking at Gurgess. If he has half decent game next will be looking at Elliot>Gurgess and get a DPP back in 2RF

Amazing that we could have both at the same price as one of them in 2015 (including CPI of course).

Weird round, ended up dropping back to 47th overall after only scoring 691 for the round, but am marginally closer to #1 in terms of overall points. Just under 250 points down now.

Speaking off #1, congrats @Honey Badger.

Yes Honey Badger you are the man. Well done mate.

Also congrats to all the others on here that are in the top 50. You guys deserve a special mention as well.

I dropped outside the 5k for the first time this year

Will bounce back next week

Happy to see the fanatics leading the charge in the standings though

Top work, Honeybadger. Guy in second has an amazing squad though, worth over 10m already, stacked full of PODs and if he has the trades can easily bring in Smith/Fifita whenever he wants...problem for him is choosing the right 17 from 24 green dots every week.

I agree he has a very strong team

Well done mate, what an amazing effort! How are things shaping up for the rest of the byes?

Not going to chase bye points so will prob drop down the rankings a bit but if i can come out of the byes still in touch with a strong team and a bit of depth then hopefully finish well. Long way to go!

Thinking I might go Graham to Taupau and Wallace to JBrom next week. Fifita will need to wait til rd19 now (if at all)

Kelly 25

Well done everyone in the two digit rankings.
An extra well done to the fella at #1. (insert thumbs up emoticon thing here)

Wonderful community here.
I don't ask many questions as the decisions are mine but viewing what you all have to say has helped me heaps.
It's helped me get to my best ever ranking of 419. for me.
Burnt trades and round 15 and 19 will hurt but a solid team and confident of good overall result (yeah, just cursed myself. )

Damn, guys. Those updates stink. I really thought Dylan Walker was owed a 2nd LB and perhaps an extra TB. He didn't go up at all. And Whitehead really has to go.

This week was supposed to be my week where I made up a lot more ground. Ended up only scoring 670. Way too many scores in the 30s or below. What a disappointment

Silly to trade Whithead to Fifita?

Just catching up on this round.

Ended up with 754 for the round and up to a rank of 1,083 which I'm pretty stoked with.

However I think I'm most happy with the fact that (1) BJ finally made his b/e and (2) Elliot made his despite the bulldogs stinking the place out.

Well done on some great scores and rankings fellas.

700 flat for me, and ranking not worth posting, fell just out of the top 1500.

This week;

Bodene - Anyone
Niko - Munster/Lolohea

Fucking nice Croker update too.

I'm surprised Croker updated from 28 to 37 but as an owner I'll take it.
