I have no idea why I didn't set a forward emergency (thought I had) but it would have been nice to have activated Dean "the" Kent's random ton instead of Curnow's duck egg. That gives a walkover to...oh dear. Well, better hand over that Dyson...
Shut the gate! Poowong are actually on top of the ladder after 5 rounds. Albeit a 7-way tie for first place, but we're taking it.
what is the deal with the rolling lockout this weekend... does it lock with final teams on friday still?
I think it...should. In other news Sarah Island have actually scored the most points in these here five rounds despite our evident lack of winning. An congrats to Johnny @thokash for his sub 500 ranking in SC.
Walesy's mob having a series of strong performances which, combined with donuts from Marshall, Buddy and Davis, means the glamas have been dealt a salutory lesson about fantasy games.
Didn't know you cared about SC mate! 208th now but I missed the Richmond rookies which might hurt me long term. Also almost back on top of the ORFFL which is more important! Poowong doing a Freo or something?
Just need you to keep this narrative going mate, working well for Poowong thus far. The mighty Billy Longer was actually a late inclusion and so for the first time since I can't remember when, we might actually have a playing ruck this week!
Team is doing a good job of free falling now after such a great start. At least the Pyrite have the Pigs for company, who are in the same boat.
I’m back in it mate after a 5 year absence! After a dreadful 1800 r1 where i tried to loophole without remembering you have to select emgs i’m slowly climbing my way up the rankings. Bit of mid-price-madness hasn’t helped, but while gnr is tried and tested, mpm is always way more fun. And with 30 trades now, far too tempting!
"slowly climbing my way up the rankings" - I wonder where you would be with a non-slow climb. I am around 3750th and you are just ahead of me. And I did not have an 1800 to start with.
3749th or better perhaps? TBF, you have around 150 points on me which is a fairly significant margin.
Not sure where you're getting that info from to be honest. From what I can see you are second in the TS ORFFL overall rankings with only thokash ahead of you.
I am a a bit dumb, I was looking at the "points for" in the league, but now you raise the question I see that is for the last 4 rounds only, not the 6 rounds completed. That reconciles a few things in my mind anyway.
Jeez, may as well just quit SC proper if someone like Hornsy can just come back in, make all the noob mistakes and still be way higher than your own atrocious ranking. Good looking team Kash, did you do much correctional trading in early rounds? Nailed a lot of the top performers. With all the outs for Pyrite this week kinda worried the Wanderers might stumbled into their first win of the season.
Could say I'm getting a little tired of trying to be competitive with a 13 man team. But apparently it is character building.
I had to put Balta in the backline this week - never expected that at one point it looked like half his score was going to outscore Dow... Really disappointed in what he's put up this year given his preseason seemed so positive, a 60 average just matches last years output
