[7/11]

991 in the end. Can’t complain with that round. Saw a few teams with 50-100 more than me which is outstanding for round 1. Hopefully we can all continue on our merry way in round 2.

 

[Jim's Dim Sims]

893. Don't think that's going to be very good.

 

[Diabolical]

820. The only way is up!

 

[Herbie66]

1030 by the looks

probably should pull out now , if I start expecting too much I will dissapoint myself

 

[Pookus McFly]

955 but pretty disappointed. Arrow didn't get his expected second stint and my sneaky POD Tapine had an absolute howler. Nobody else really on the chopping block though I may mull over Radley

 

[Herbie66]

Final side was:-

Smith , Hodgson (R)
Fifita , Papalii , Lane (R)
Trobojevic , Arrow , Murray , Gillett (R) , Burr (R)
Morgan
Moses
Marsters , Holland , Bateman , Nicoll-Klokstad
Moylan

Others
Host , Nikora , Keighran , Brown , Garrick , Sivo , Ravalawa , Simonsson

 

[IDIG]

913 for me. My second lowest scorer Tedesco was my skipper so plenty of room for improvement I hope!

Balls of steel. No Ponga Cook Taupau or Teddy.

I guess that is the beauty of knowing next to nothing , I don't have any allegiance or attachments to any players or pre-conceived ideas.

The more I think about it , the worse I will become.

 

[Melmo]

Finished the week on 963 which I think is alright. I'm glad to have three backrowers (Nikora, Capewell and Bateman) in my CTW so hopefully I'll see some consistent scores in that position unlike in previous seasons. Disappointed in Teddy, Cleary, Arrow and Ponga but not angry enough to be making any rage trades this week, as all of them can easily bounce back. Also a tad disappointed in myself as I'm a Cowboys fan and yet I still ignored picking up lolo, but he'll come in soon enough.

 

[IDIG]

Still not open

 

[Herbie66]

I have gained 39 points on my score from last night , mostly from the last game by the looks so not sure if that is the reason it is not open yet , do they re-watch all the games to check scores ?

Smashing it mate. That’ll be right up there this week I would imagine.

Pretty much beginners luck , it will all come crashing down quickly ?.

I like the fact that I don't know 98% of the players.

@Connoisseur posted some great info and some good people offering advice helped.

 

[7/11]

I lost 21 points unfortunately from the updates. Still 970 though which I can’t complain about. Garner updating to 80 points really hurts.

 

[Herbie66]

back down to 1045 now.

I think 22 of my players scores changed , getting frustrating now , hope it is not this long every week.

 

[Connoisseur]

Finally open and ranks are in.

Scored 1010 and ranked 7326.
Captain: J Trbojevic
Playing 17:
Only 5 players below 50: N Cleary, M Sivo, CNK, M Taupau and K Holland.
50-70: A Fifta, J Arrow, E Marsters, C Gutherson, J Bateman, M Moylan
70+: J Friend, S Lane, M Morgan, C Murray

Bench: J Tatola, J Host, B Nikora, A Keighran, D Brown, R Garrick, M Ravalawa, C Allan.

Only change to RD1 lineup for RD2 will be B Nikora for the last reserve spot instead of M Sivo.

Currently plan not to trade as I assume prices change RD3 so will have another look at my options. If Garner fires again I likely trade Tatola or Allan out for him and trade Tolman to free up the cash necessary.

 

[Herbie66]

1045

ranked 3,147th out of 125,504 entrants

hopefully all my 25 play again , and will probably just stick with the same 17 this week.

 

[Herbie66]

what should we be looking at as a bench mark average for our players per position ?
