    So, round one is nearly complete, and the cockles of my heart have been warmed but an upset victory over the Hawks.

    Slightly less warming though, was the 2000ish score that I'll be opening the season with. With a bit of luck though, I might crack 2100. Feels a little low, but I guess there have been a bunch of trash rookies and Hannebury stinking it up, so maybe that par? I dunno- can't seem to see anyone's scores anymore.

    To remedy that, hit us up with your scores in the comments below! :D

      2194 so pretty happy with that. Got SPP and Butler on the field but Hampton and Barrett poor, A few under performing premiums so hopefully they step up this week.

      Happy with 2314, including Pickett's dismal 28 which as it turns out was better than Swallow's 0.

      Round 2 will start with the Tiges vs Magpies on Thursday night, so once again there won't be much time to adapt to Round 2 selections before deciding whether to trade the likes of Butler, Nankervis and WHE into your team (assuming they are named on Wednesday).

      Geelong, NM, Melb, Carlton, Port and Freo play Sunday so here's hoping that Stewart, Parffit, Thurlow, Turner, Simpkin, Hibberd, MacCreadie, Picket and Eddy make the 22 and don't get named on the 7 man extended benches

      2nds news from the weekend for those interested

      2252 and ranked 6929, which is a reasonable start considering I was carrying Hannebery. Copped Smith's injury too (though at least not on field) and ended up trading in Cameron to loophole Butler, which saved me from Eddy's 30 but also cost me Houston's 72 worth of cash generation.

      I'm considering keeping Smith and Cameron (even if they don't play) for loophole purposes considering how poorly some of these rookies are scoring. Would be handy to loophole Butler, Eddy and Pickett and also Otten, Stewart and Hampton. Won't work every week but could help gain a few points or avoid a few 30s! Good idea or will it inhibit cash generation too much?

      Happy with 2165. Slightly less than @Jason but we can only get better (perhaps).

      2153. Can't really hate on the rookies so it's only really Hannebery who let me down.

      I'm toying with Treloar and 200k rookie out for Gawn and cheaper rookie. Allows Nank to become F4.

      2109 with a doughnut because of Swallow and a wedding :( I did have a trade obviously and left 200k in the kitty just in case, but didnt see it until to late. An extra 100 would have seen me in the top 5000ish but now 30.000 thousand and season over. Bring on the leagues.

      Season not over mate.
      A number of top 100 from last yr came from 30-40k after early rounds.

      Spot on. I was in the top 2000 after Rd 2 last year and ended up outside the top 12000, where you are in the rankings early doesn't mean much at all

      Last year after round one I was ranked 81,834 and finished 4,326. I made a decent amount of bad trades as well so better coaching would have seen a pretty good ranking.
