The Endgame - Round 23 Preview/Discussion

[ubeaut]

Gray basically killed everyone who took him as a late season POD. Likely opportunity loss was 300+ points for many I reckon.

Gray is a gun but needs more mid time to be worth it. The older he gets and the more young midfielders that come in the less time he gets in the guts. Plus he's so damn dangerous around goal
He had a streak of good games with Rocky and Wines out at various times but it was always going to end
I haven't picked him for years now, not worth the headache of will he won't he play midfield

Nice to hit an all time PB when it counts for absolutely ****ing nothing

Thank **** that's over. Love you all

 

[Brick Loosener]

2360

Cunnington and Sheed can get ****ed.

 

[gcsunsfc]

2836 - beat my previous best by 100 points
Hoping it can get me from 330 to <250

Won my two hardest leagues that were ranked 14th and 47th coming into this week

Just seen I was bundled out of all my crap leagues last week - the Suns league (ranked 12k), public league (ranked 7k) and a SCS league (ranked 3.3k)

 

[ubeaut]

2790 damn u Heeney, Boak and Merrett

Could have been 2900+ if I'd used my last 2 trades better

 

[mochacinolatte]

Scored 2446.

Ranked 20k probably.

See you poo heads in Feburary.

Sayonara.


Edit Ranked 16.5k

 

[Glorin]

What could have been. My highest ever score missed by a schoolboy error....

2827 would have still lost my cashie GF.

 

[Gavin Excell]

2701 and dropped 200 spots ffs

 

[Phoenix_9]

Shocking final round, resulting in 2605, will definitely slide in the rankings, hope I cling onto top 200... Edit: Slipped to 257th..

Did finish up with one unused trade. Sloane, was the only real one I was considering trading this week, but he did alright and it wouldn't have made much difference, there weren't really any options at his price. In hindsight, shipping Billings, Heeney or Goldy off would have been ideal...

Either way, still a positive season, you need a lot to go right to win this game!

About 50 years left to win the 50k!...

 

[vast]

Yepp.
He was cheap though. Very cheap, fit, and likely to play a lot of midfield. Sucked so many in as a cheap POD.
At just 30 its not as though he was washed up.
As it turned out not a single top 10 mob had Gray going into today, despite him being a fairly common pick. That shows just how toxic he was late season. A tradeout in the last month to ANYONE would have meant huge points.

We have no control on dipsticks like Hinkley and how/where they play them.

 

[gcsunsfc]

Dreading how much I dropped in overall

My season was ruined not by injuries but by 5 or 6 players completely losing form, in the last 4-5 weeks

That's the risk with those sub-premos though
Sheed, B Crouch etc.. really had very good seasons in total but always that risk of relying on them.

In that category I had Weller who shat the bed for a few weeks but came good late.

 

[the_chad]

Cheers for the year all, personally checked out a few weeks back but it was fun while it lasted

 

[Snarls Barkley]

176th overall. Wrapped with that. My previous highest was 341st in 2017 and haven't been top 1k apart from that.

0 league wins. Less happy with that. But at least I wasn't in any cash leagues this year

 

[gcsunsfc]

2729, won all 3 leagues. not the best ranked year, but still pretty good! see y'all next season.

You win the Suns league?

 

[Armitage2Riewoldt]

5 scores of 3000.

Well I'll be.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Finished the season 39th overall, dropped 24 spots.

Disappointing to fall away in the last 5 weeks after peaking
At 7th overall, 5 weeks ago.

Still, can’t complain finishing 39th overall.

 

[nameless]

Ranked 1,959 in the end.

My best year.
Round 1 was ranked 60,000 and blew out to 10,000 after terrible bye rounds.

Excuse me? See you next season? No one even saw you THIS season sir.

 

[Gavin Excell]

5 scores of 3000.

Well I'll be.

Weekly winner a tidy 3038

 

[gcsunsfc]

Two good years in a row.
Some stupid decisions cost me a top 100 finish.
- Trading Rocky in Rd 5
- Trading Buddy in the week he got injured
- Trading Dunkley out in Rd 4-5

Oh well - here's to the 50k next year.

 

[vanders]

I ended up with 2484 and won Bigfooty Div 8
