Yes I noticed mate and a very nice score for the week you are right in the hunt in 6th. 93 points from the lead is sfa to catch. Keep up the good work White Lightning

Yep what a bastard.....I ended up 4th for the week with my 1172 but couldn't even play what-if's with my captain to run that score down!

Yeah unlucky anyone that scored high 1100's as on other weeks it would of been a weekly winner. I had a feeling someone would smash over 1200. Congrats to him, 1230 is a score to be proud of.

That said its all very tight up the top now. 10 teams probably still in it I'd say.

GL to you 3? all in the top ten and the hunt! Going to be a fun run home seeing how you all do!

Yea you were right mate fair play caught first up and his 300 point lead in no time!

Ponga being out and Turbo have helped me last few rounds for sure

Just need to get the timing right on my next trade ins and make some good captains choices

GL to all the fanatics going for it

Some big scores this week. Pacey's 1076 and my 1087 not enough to secure victory in H2H. This weeks league average was in excess of 1065. League 1 jumped up into 2nd place on the ladder so we now occupy both 1 & 2.

You blokes up the top need to keep doing what you're doing so we pull off a clean sweep.


On a side not, got through my eliminator. What looked close eatrly in the week, poor chump couldn't even crack the ton.

Yeah, good going with those leagues. Don't loose interest anyone as we need the scores to keep ticking over.
As good going you3 in the top 6. Reckon one of you might take it out.
I scored 1071 and won eliminator by a whopping 9 points. Cool, still alive.

My team (after bringing in Fifita this week)

Cook Smith
Haas Fifita Klemmer
Taumalolo JTrbojevic Murray Matterson
Ponga Pearce
Bateman Burns
Tedesco TTrbojevic Munster RTS

18th Man Twal
Nikora ended up in 2RF, so unless I rejig things I can't play him and Bateman in my centres

5 trades left, any thing I should be looking at for the run home?

Looks good. Until Nikora shows something like he did 1st half of season he's not worth playing for now in the centres anyway.

You said a while back you were just focussing on the Eliminator, is that still the case? My suggestions would be depedent on what you are aiming for.

In any case with 5 trades left I'd be bringing in Ma'u and DCE.

Anyone got the BE for TTurbo vs Ponga this week please? Also for Cleary and Norman please

TTurbo BE 20. Ponga BE 98. Cleary BE 57. Norman BE 35.

Thank you mate

Really backing myself into a corner with regards to reserves. Which 2 would you play out of Matterson, Twal, Murray and Tevaga? Next week will be even worse with Munster back cuz I might want to play 4 WFB if I get TTrbo this week for CNK/To'o

Play Matterson, and Tev I think

Got done a couple rounds ago in eliminator - ended up with too many players missing in the same round to put up a good fight and played against someone with a full squad. Ended up having to play Havili for his 7 the week Hodgson came back, and had Pearce and Morgan combine for 37.

Now I have nothing specific to play for, just put a decent team out each week to keep the league rankings high. Maybe try and jag a weekly.

For Welshy and anyone else that wants them

In eliminator I'm playing someone who's ranked 24. I'm ranked over 600 (but on the improve).
Edwards saved me last week. If him and Burns can score well I might have a chance ..... maybe.

Captain Haas for me this week, can't argue with a 71. Solid 142 start to the round!

I'm up against Uncle chop chop and it's going to be close. It's going to be someone having an off day or a HIA which will decide it.

Only because I want the league to do well and have an excuse if I get beat , @Milchy you have a R on Munster
