@jelejasof you voted for 51 points

@NQcrushers you only voted for 41 points

@Iron Mike you voted for 52 points

Let me know if you want to make any changes to your votes

For those voting over I'll probably just reduce your highest votes by 1 point until you get to 50 or less
If you under vote I'll just leave as is

I've just pm'd my now. Please let me know if I've cocked it up. It adds up to 50 anyway

I am tabulating votes now

There are 851 votes at the moment, but only 843 are counting

I have gone through and found a few typos but there are still some votes not being picked up by my macro, so if you see any typos in team names please let me know.

I am not calculating the combined team by hand, I have an excel macro to do it. For it to pick up your votes, the name has to match the spelling on the fantasy site.

Aiden/Aidan Tolman
Matthew/Matt Gillett were 2 common ones and a few others around as well.

@mattnz I know you are interested in this team, do you want to send updated votes after TLT?

Do you need any help? I'm back at 'work' today so I can throw some time at this

Will announce final results tonight

Team is looking fairly templatey as you'd expect

I don't want to encourage gaming the system but these are the undecided points at the moment.

We are heading very much towards a guns/cows team. Likely to be a bunch of cheapies in our playing 17

Looks like we will run with 2 of Taupau/Cleary/Tedesco - and whoever doesn't make it will be replaced by a cheapie

The other players just a touch outside selection are
Cook, SJ, Gillett, Tolman, Lane and Vaughan

@code delta The current selection criteria Ranta and I were following was going to rule TPJ out of selection. (Whether because of that rule, or because everyone else is scared of his hammies, noone else has voted for him anyway) Feel free to change your vote elsewhere if you wish.

I like Taupau / Tedesco. I think the cheapie halves (Keighran and Brown) will score better than the cheap backs.

I like Taupau/Cleary.

Watch Marty be the one who fails us haha.

I'm not going to like the cookie cutter that comes out of this. I'm worried for my own team now

I Like Taupau, because unless Ofa/Tolman/Vaughan pick up a bunch of votes, the next FRF in line is Host, and I am 100% not comfortable of running him as only 2 FRFs in the squad.

At the moment I don't want to tweak what the algorithm gives us though. There may have to be a captain's call if the votes throw up something funny.

Yes i certainly will. Still sorting out who i want for my own team then will vote soon.

The votes that have come in are much more varied than i expected. I had assumed that tlt would have made more similar teams but seems to have gone the other way.

I'm a little reluctant to actually lodge a vote as I don't have the same level of expertise as a lot of you guys. I mostly just lurk in these forums and steal all of my info from you (thanks for all your input guys). But I saw that Cleary is right on the edge and he was one of the first picked in my side, so thought I'd throw my opinion out there.

Thanks @Milchy. Reckon I'll leave him in for bragging rights down the track.

fixed by reducing Twal by one, but I'd be another one voting for including Taupau...
