Eliminator - In or Out?

[stkildathunda]

Still in after close 70 point win. Playing Koudelka's Kings this week.
Overall Ranking 4139 vs 39000. Should have them covered hopefully

 

[HibSam]

Still in thanks to Brad Sewell's huge last quarter and getting me over the line by 4 points!

Somehow I'm versing someone who avg 80odd points less then me this week, which is great considering my huge form slump of late. I'm starting to base my trades around eliminator now, screw the leagues ...

 

[Decipher]

I decided against trading players out due to injury and went down to someone with a poor team who just happened to have 22 playing players.

Didak, Ablett, Houlihan, Broughton, Raines, Higgins and I know there was one or two more at the time.

Went down by like 40 points was abit devo but thats not my aim this year.
Overall rankings and work league so im not upset that I am out. Nobody remembers how well you do in the elim unless you win it. However if you end up ranked in top 100 you end up being abit more well known so lets see how things shape up in the 2nd half of the season.

So had is pretty easy so far... Last week had me a bit scared but ended up getting on top of him on the sunday... This week looks like another easy one versing someone whos ranked 40k so shouldnt be to bad! And it hasnt really got to the real deal yet whoever stated that, it really starts getting hard in the top 2000 and this is premium upgrade time so everyones team will only be getting stronger

 

[Jeremias]

In.

Caught a lucky break last week scoring 1700 and still winning with ease.

Hoping for an improvement on that effort or else I won't be in for too much longer.

 

[Ausyid]

Still going strong. Not sure for how long though.

 

[cuzz is back]

still in

and hopeing to win the whole comp

my dreamteam name is cuzz is back overall ranking 27

 

[JustForFun]

Still in it. Surprised to in the top half after only scoring 1882.
On paper I have the next one won too (against: All Good Things rank 16k v me rank 3k) but paper doesn't mean squat. Have been scoring poorly lately after reasonable start so may not be back next week.

 

[Beau_Waters for PM]

Out in Round 8 with my lowest score for the year.

 

[True Blue Saint]

Still in it...

Hoping to win it as well.

Team name is Jolly Wunderkinds and ranking is 118th (overall, not weekly/eliminator ranking)

 

[foschini]

In, but not for long.

Had a good laugh when I saw the stats of my opponent, McLeod's Brownlow. As penance for my lowly 1733 last week (I scraped a win) I have drawn the team with Eliminator Ranking of - 1.

His overall ranking is 49 against my 11,000 or so, so let's just say that I'll need a good one.

PS My weekly eliminator ranking isn't actually last (7286th). When will they make it so that you actually play the exact mirror ranked person. Woudn't that make the eliminator fairer?

 

[SM]

Mate I speak for a lot of us when I say a surprise win against them would be greatly appreciated.

 

[Pie Legend]

Out in round 7 with a respectable score (for that round) of 1950.

Wasn't (still am not!) happy!

 

[bloodpumpsRnB]

Still in comfortably. I'm playing someone who is 18,000 odd, which is good considering all the other opponents people are getting. His midfield is the only thing letting him down, with Murphy being his only consistant performer. Shouldn't have to worry with a ranking of 108.

 

[bigburger]

In though this is the team I'm vsing this week even though I got over 5k higher in eliminator rankings . Not fair.

[WhippingCupcakes]

Still in. Opponent's team is slightly better ranked but i reckon i can beat him.

Got very lucky in round 3. Had a draw but lucky for me i was higher ranker so i won, aww yeah.

 

[Virgil]

Still in it. Not expecting to win this week though.

 

[BluesMan]

Still In. Stoked really, Might be my last this week thou! Versing a guy called bulldog breed. Good team, we avg the same should a ripper match!

 

[SELFCONFESDAFLNERD]

Still in and have an OK opponent this week who is ranked 63,000 overall. Although, i think their current team warrants a much better rank, scored 1946 last round. I still have Lucas & Hodge on my bench and might cop my first zero of the season if Higgins is a late withdrawal and Lucas/Yarran aren't late inclusions.

Our teams match-up like this (they are on the left).........

Goddard v Cornes
Lockyer v Purgoyne
Bock v Adcock
Gilbert v McPhee
Ryder v Broughton

(We both have Fisher and Suban, i have no cover wheras they have Grima)

Bartel v Swan
Mitchell v Gibbs
Judd v Cornes
Winderlich v Bruce
Sherman v Mackay
Zaharakis v Rich

(Both have no cover)

Mac v Jolly

(Both have Cox, i have potential cover if Pyke is a late inclusion)

Aker v Pav
Monfries v Franklin
Alw. Davey v Gia
Nahas v Higgins
Jetta v Lynch
Dowler (Trade?) v Lucas (Hoping for late inclusion)

(They have no cover, i have both Yarran and Wright selected as emergencies. We both have SJ)

If i can scrape through this round i'll be confident for next round with Hodge returning (IMO he will) and the possibility of two substantial upgrades and Lucas returning.

 

[Plugger35]

Still in it.

Only just scraped through last week by around 20 points, after winning all my previous matches pretty comfortably. Reasonably confident of getting through this week, providing there are no major disasters.

 

[sabre_ac]

Out when we both scored 1905...Couldn't believe it.
