    Big win for Captain Danger this week.

    Small loss for those of us that benched Nank for the Greenwood score

    Huge loss for those who held onto Sandilands.

    Where did you rate this week?
     
?

What score did your SC team achieve in Round 15 ??

      Nice work @anthak ....that's fantastic!!!

      I managed to move up 36 spots to 57. Pretty chuffed with that. Never been so high and excited just to be thereabouts.

      Not sure mate, still about 600 points from 1st which is tough to make up, but only 80 pts from 10th now :cool:

      Gawn dropped about $15k more than expected, and Witts didn't go up by about $5k as much as expected. So I've got just enough for the trade, thanks for the heads up TTH.
      Anyway, I've turned my attention to a different trade option this week now, still considering it all.

      2426 was good for 8/8 league wins and moved me up a huge 92 spots into #200 overall! At this rate I'll win it easily haha.

      But seriously, you & @bosco are real chances this year! Go you good TS warriors!! ;)

      If Pendles and Adams produced scores even close to what we expected today it would've been 2500+ but I guess most up top would own those 2.

      I've been fairly tight lipped about my POD's so far because I wanted to keep them that way but it's probably now safe to reveal one - I made the genius move of S Selwood -> R Gray last week for his immaculately timed BOG 146! The SC gods then swiftly dealt me his massive 45 this week to even the score. I don't think many (if any) will be too keen to jump on board with me to ride the Robbie Gray roller coaster now! I still think he'll provide some big scores on the run home though.

      Gonna be an exciting finish to the season!

      He's clearly injured / very sore / lacking confidence in the stability of his shoulder. Rocky at his best is a ferocious ball hunting and tackling beast. He's been a shadow of that for the last month.

      I've been a regular Rocky owner in previous seasons but have stayed away this year. I was at the game today and he just doesn't look right.

      I'm amazed you've been holding him this whole time and your still steadily moving up at the pointy end of the rankings.

      I'm assuming you started the year with him? Or did you get him in just after his bye?

      Either way, if you'd ditched him as soon as he busted his shoulder or grabbed another premium mid over Rocky you'd be right there mate!

      Your call but I'd cut my losses now and flick him for whichever mid you don't have that you think will finish off the season the best.

      Cheers

      I jumped on Robbie too, was thinking how awesome to get him so cheap and now 190 over 2...rats. What's with pricing this round? Gawn, rocky, sloane and co all dropped by a sh!t ton more than expected?? But Robbie went up to the dollar. Joel selwood will be tasty in a few weeks if there has been a late change to the magic number.

      Haha. Shows you how underpriced he was relative to the scores he was pumping out when he can drop a 45 bomb and stil go up in price!

      Robbie was my best scoring player last week and my worst this week = Definition of a roller coaster!

      Despite Port naming him on the ball the last few weeks he's playing as an undersized FF this season so I'm expecting much more of the same.

      Started the season with Joel so his early KO score and late out this week has been a massive disadvantage to me

      I actually brought him in in the leadup to round 5, when he was almost his most expensive all season at $626k.
      He scored a 100 on debut for me and then had the two 140s but got injured and i decided to hold him.

      Im inclined to continue to hold him. He is a POD for me at present and if he goes back to scoring 140s and 170s that would be a big advantage for me. His ceiling is too high to consider dropping him i reckon.

      Thanks for the insights though.

      I plan to bring in Ducky in a couple of weeks so maybe Rocky could be the one to use for that. At this stage it'll be Scooter unless i have bigger issues at that time (like Rocky haha)

      I think its just that too many players needed to go up more than expected and the $$ had to come from somewhere.

      As a very happy and quite biased Richmond supporter, I must say that Gray played against the best back six in the league. Grimes has now demolished Betts, Garlett and Gray, as well as doing some other decent jobs. Expect Gray to bounce back vs West Coast and North over the next two weeks

      Well 2451 for me with 2/2 league wins and weekly top score in my league. Had a little bit of luck in who i fielded this week or how i managed to field them. Moved Strnadica (who became my Capt after VC Danger tore up 196) on field while GC game was happening as Lynch was tearing it up so i got his 126 forced me to move Ryder to the rucks. With that Ryder scores 125 and i have a toss up whether on the Sunday to play Sandi or Grundy....i play Grundy and its happy days especially that i won by 53 and Sandi would have cost me the win and the 2400+

      2200 this week and dropped 1498 places to 7340 overall. Lucky to avoid more heartache as I swapped Sandi for Martin. Won 6/8 leagues which is OK with such a low score.
