Round 20 Discussion- 4 more rounds of pain

[Maurice Mitchell]

2502. Rose about 70 places to 1355. Needed 144 from Macrae to win my money league. Phew! Off to the Prelim.

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

In to the top 1,000!!!

991

 

[TheRednWhite]

Cruel game
Nailed the Crae C
Still only just got 2400 and dropped 300+ spots
It's the same story every week, 1-2 spuds just drag my score down. This week it was Sicily and Cripps, plus Taranto disappointing.
Would have been ok if my other premos made up for it but guys like Zerrett and Gaff just had terrible second halves when I needed then to go 130ish.
Still just outside top 10k, like I've been for 10+ weeks!!

Happens to most.

I had all the bolded and still managed over 2.5k

 

[samFFC]

2,411
Slide a smidge to 3.5k

2487. Up 400 places and won both QFs. Thank you Captain Macrae! Was a little worried when Grundy went big.

Sicily a waste of space. He's gone when lockout is lifted. Salem not a lot better.

Greene was a great in!

 

[samFFC]

In my home league, my wife (who is top 1k) had Gaff and Macrae unique against Yeo, with a 136 point disadvantage.

It was looking good at first with Yeo struggling but with his quick finish she needed 147 from Macrae to win (as was lower on the ladder).

Incredible - just pipped for the win!

She managed 2,560 to move to 773.

must have been the inferior premos I had like Sheppard and Clark, though serviceable they are still a fair way behind Whit. Amazing how you scored 100 more than me, must have had some premos going big? No treloar also hurts me, EVERY. SINGLE. WEEK.

 

[Neale4brownlow]

2544. Through to semis so I might just do a double downgrade this week.

Weakest links are cripps/stewart/smith/ziebell so its at the point where I might make my team worse by trading.

With a double downgrade this week out of the way it'll allow 2x Sideways on premos next week ahead of a final.

 

[Rion]

2542 and rose a couple of hundred spots. Feel like the end of the season is always a bit of a drag overall wise because it's just so hard to make up ground even with good scores.

Doing alright in my leagues though so there's that I suppose. Team fully finished so I guarantee whoever I trade out this week will gun it (Salem vs Neale vs Danger currently).

Considering getting rid of Telly... can someone convince me otherwise? 85 odd average over the last month...

dropped him two weeks ago and it hasn't haunted me yet.

Been in Bali, log on to check my scores. Lost my 1 v 4 final by one point. Scored 2533. Wowwww

Yeah but you went to Bali. You win easy

 

[StickyMick]

Yeah but you went to Bali. You win easy

If winning is your girlfriend making you eat vegan the whole time, plus getting Bali belly second day then we need to re-assess the definition of winning

And, I might add: If I captained anyone other than Macrae; I lose. My opponent was ripped off.

If captain Macrae didn't give away that last minute free kick then I would have won. Shouldn't have looked at the game log. Feel sick

Shit free kick too...

It's just so typical of me that the two players that I trade out score 126 and 135. It happens every single week now... Cripps got 141 after I traded him, Bont 128 and Yeo 120 all after the byes.

Can you provide this information before lock out next week....

What comes first, lockout over or Christmas?

 

[Beau_Waters for PM]

If Horse had his way fantasy wouldn’t exist.
