Dropped from 35th to 54th with 2301. Now 189 points from the lead after starting the round within 107 points.

Happy with that considering it felt like a clunky round for me.

The dream remains alive for at least 1 more week.

Apologies to those that 🤮 at my first world problems (been there).
I was wondering if anyone had a table of past winners round by round rankings? How far back is too far back historically?
I was also thinking that 40 trades would make it less relevant to have a good starting team.

I dont have a very extensive archive, but this may be of some help.
Winners rankings - Round by round across the page..

I hope your supposition is right, I've still got 30,000 teams to get past.

2241 Heeney

A bit low for a Heeney captain team, missed out with a lot of points on the bench and premiums misfiring.

There were whispers of Flanders moving to half back during the week but I didn't want to spread any rumours without a trustworthy source. Team sheets pretty much confirmed this with Budarick going out and Swallow being the sub. Unlucky if you had Will Powell as well, had to play more accountable without Budarick. Would've been better to get him over Whitfield this week but wanted to see the role and see if he could score in it. Pretty impressive as it's probably the first time he's played that role before, becomes a must get for me now. For anyone worried about that role and would prefer him in that mid/fwd split I wouldn't. Much better being behind the ball than being stuck on a flank although his ceiling is probably limited without the CBA's. Annoying Whitfield sat on the bench for pretty much a quarter, could've been a big one if not for that and some pretty bad turnovers. Gold Coast rookies look like some players, might have to early on one as much as it goes against the rules but not a whole lot of downgrade options.

Tag dropped off Daicos during the second, probably happy as an owner as I was expecting a 60-70 going into the game. Wouldn't be upset as a non owner either. Funny how this score came in a tagged game where the poor score came in a non tagged game. Never liked the Massimo pick, stuck on a wing no good and benched for the last 10 during crunch time. Has to go this week if not next barring any Williams news.

Gotta trade hard now and make some moves, some great scores on here, well done everyone who's up there near the top.
Well done and thanks for the analysis of Flanders, already have him in this format, looking at bringing him in AFLF. I noticed that Lukosious also had a role change and seems to be the man with the kick in (and kicking) duties. He's awkwardly priced, but there's not much to choose from in the forwards.

Yeah that was interesting that he stayed down back there as well, he moved there a few weeks ago. Not sure if that’s going to stick but we’ll see.

Looked very wing to me - should get it (and I believe he just hits the cutoff, which said 3/6 games I think?)
Definitely a wing role and leaning more to the defensive side (although he did snag a goal as well). Massive tank and work rate (92%TOG). 8 marks (a few of which were intercept) and 77% disp eff.
