It will be very close. Early days but I am currently projected to win by 15 (1973-1958). Draper has hurt him big time.

I will be trading Docherty as the 51 from Rivers (E) is slightly below par.

Have $552,300 so JJ, Weller and K. Simpson are the early candidates. Leaning towards Simpson as I feel Carlton will feed him the ball at every opportunity - ala Gibbs last week.

Nice!

That makes sense re Kade.

I suspect you’re all over the various machinations, but neutralizing a POD (if you’re ahead) or bringing in a volatile player (maybe Lukosius?) when you have a fraction more info could be worth considering. Given Doc locks out tonight, you should have one more game of scores, and tomorrow’s selections, to go off, although it might be a little early to be focusing mainly on your opponent unless you have few PODs remaining tomorrow!

Massive effort @Beast_Mode to win the RDT Eliminator. I never thought it actually was possible to win it, but here we have someone who has done it!!!

I finished 94th in the end. It was a little bit of a horror round where I ended up leaving the C on Macrae and I also was a rare Cripps owner in this format (needed a cheap mid at the time....). Glad I could hang onto a top 100 finish!

That’s an amazing effort @Beast_Mode, congratulations!!

I suspect you must have had a very consistent season to have achieved it. Well done.

2nd overall!!!!

And of course, the 13th and final eliminator scalp.

What a year and it's only fitting that I ended with my highest score of the season (2003). Thank you for all your kind words. I have played this format since its inception and never imagined I would ever win any money!

Credit to Rids, one of the most dominate seasons I have ever seen from an overall perspective.

For those interested I can attach my trade history and final team, there were some blunders early!

Thank you @Darkie. That certainly contributed, although I also got very lucky with my opponent draw - particularly in rounds nearing the end. I progressed with the lowest score on two occasions (final 32 and final 16 if I remember correctly).

Congrats @Beast_Mode. Huge effort. I also finished 2nd about 3-4 years ago (and haven't come close since).
Its a sweet feeling, and instant cred when the subject of fantasy sports arises with mates.
