Grand Final score of 2211 was respectable but not enough to get me across the line in the league that counted. Finished runner-up in my main league winning $100 and won the other two Grand Finals.

Overall finished 1787 which I think is quite good considering it’s only my second year playing (and first year actually knowing what I was doing). So all in all a good year.

(As an aside, I finished 1499 overall in SC in my first year playing)

Thanks Ben and guys for the comments. I decided against trading this week (especially with Pearce not playing). Probably a wise decision in the end as I really need to save my trades.

Yes dlow75, going for a league win. It’s a work comp with $500 up for grabs, so fingers crossed.

This week I scored 2135 including a 0 from Cox, so that’s a fair effort I reckon. Moves me up to 11,561 overall.

lets just hope pearce doesnt suffer from that hamstring injury he sustained in round 12s game against geelong. im having faith in chad to come back firing and save myself the trade. slotted in steele for an upgrade when he peaks and the rest are going towards non chad cornes injuries :)

Tough decisions with only 5 trades left

You in a similar position to my team. It all depends on if you are trying to finish in the highest possible position or win the league.

I’m assuming that with an over all ranking of 15,493 winning your league would be you focus for the rest of the season.

Your team looks very strong so you should make the finals pretty easily.

As Ben mentioned trades are going to be like gold comming to the end of the season so you should not make any trades and even cop a couple of zeros along the way and save them up for the finals.

With 6 weeks to the finals and if you make the Grand final another 4 weeks there is possibly 10 weeks to go.

Recommendation that you dont make any trades unless you have a long term injury. With 10 weeks to go most of us will cop a couple of injuries along the way.

Good luck
