Gone with Gits as captain"last home game, two straight running centers and revenge over the rebels", was tempted to play safe with Messam or even Lambie against the lions the same as ash

Alexander, Robinson, (white)
Moore, (Ged Robinson)
Sharpe, Bekker, (Al Campbell)
Fritz, Thomson, Messam, (Lam)
Stannard, (Pretorius)

The squad is in. Looking to go Beale as captain, though I am considering Lambie.

Alexander, JC JvR (Oost)
Moore (Robinson)
Bekker, FvdM (Pyle)
Higgers, Burger, Todd (Strauss)
Phipps (Pretorious)
Gits, Beale (C), Cooper (R. Ebersohn)
Lambie, David Smith, Fruean (Poki)

Fairly happy with that lineup.

Gits seems to have been a good option so far mate!

Messam has averaged 49 the last 5 weeks. I put him as captain and he makes 10


At least Moore, McCabe and Giteau scoring well.

He's gone up to 33 now - should be doing pretty well!

Hench you seem to always be going off too early. The general routine is that live scores are the straight forward stats; trys, runs, goals, lineouts, offloads, line-breaks etc. It's not until later that tackles, pilfers etc are added. If you're checking your fantasy team live, forwards, especially back-rowers, scores will always be much lower because of this. Just give it some time

late posting this, but i didn't have time last night. got rid of kepu/digby and brought in stannard as a replacement to phipps (who so far has scored really well...)

JC JvR, afoa
moore
kimlin, sharpe
messam, higgers, burger
stannard
beale, carter (C), cruden
mccabe, sbw, lambie

on 188 so far after the 2 games. i'll take that.

I know. But the worse off you think you are going the better you'll feel when you get the updates next morning :lmao:

 

[Gooch]

Regretting my choice of Gits as captain, thought he would really have a huge one.

JC JvR, Blauww (Strauss)
Ged (SFinger)
Wykes, Sharpe (Al Campbell)
Messam, Vito, Thomson (Lam)
Stannard (Sarel)
Gits [c], Beale, Doppies (Piutau)
SBW, Poki, JP Pietersen (Payne)

 

[Shiggins]

Dam saffy made 29 tackles 2 line breaks 5 runs 5 tackle busts a try and a lo take
Mcabe and teialata I'm happy with so far


Go the force!!!!

 

[hench]

Glad I chose McCabe over SBW for my final trade. :thumb

Indeed! Well done sir!

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Bloody trust SBW to get injured after bringing him off the bench. How about Saffy what was it 74pts? or around that? what an effort.

 

[dudebudstud]

I really wish I had bought Saffy two weeks ago, but instead i went with Lam

Otherwise a good round - 524 points, and up 14 spots to 58 in the league

To the following: David Pocock, Patrick Lambie, Jarred Saffy, Quade Cooper (C), Kurtley Beale. Thankyou for carrying my team over the 400 mark. Special mention also to Phipps and Mealamu.

Pocock and Quade saved my bacon too this week.

 

[Hawko]

Last game of the regular season and last chance to pick the odd performer (like Saffy last week) who will come up trumps for you. Next week its only four teams to choose from, complete wildcards every week and people's teams will look very alike.

I like Saffy again this week, Strauss from the Cheetahs and I think the Tahs front row will have another big one against the Brumbies. Gone right off Stannard as he scored just 2 points last week (sorry for suggesting him Greg). Reckon the Force backs might score highly this week against the Rebel turnstiles. Ranger's injured so I need two outside backs, so is SBW. Finding reliable, high-scoring outside backs who don't get injured is not easy.

 

[AkRiD]

Being the last round of the season and with unlimited transfers for the finals I am electing to go with a bit of a Force flavour for this week.

I'll be bringing in Sam Wykes, David Pocock and Matt Hodgson, I'll hold out 'till tomorrow morning to make the changes, just in case.

The squad should be looking a little something like this....

Alexander, Oost (JC JvR)
Moore (Ged Robinson)
Bekker, Wykes (Pyle)
Pocock, Hodgson, Todd (Strauss)
Sarel Pretorious (Phipps) <-- may switch this around
Gits, Beale, Cooper (R. Ebersohn)
Fruean, Lambie, David Smith (Poki)

Had a thought about Stannard, but noticed Ripia on the bench for the Force so he may not be getting a full game in.
All in all, that's a fairly solid lineup and hopefully mixing it up a bit will pay dividends.

 

[Newb]

locked in my squad a little earlier than usual this week. but with the team postings that are out already i'm not too concerned. just outside the top 20 in the G&GR league and just looking to get a good run to finish up the year inside that group. can't wait to spend 4 hours messing with my team each week during the finals.... unlimited transfers are dangerous for me.

strauss, afoa
moore
bekker, kimlin
saffy, burger, messam
stannard
beale, carter, cruden
lambie, guildford, mccabe

have higgers and sarel on my bench and still mulling over bringing them into the starters.

best of luck to everyone the rest of the way. especially meeks. go get 'em!

 

[hench]

Wykes is actually a smart pick as he should see more work with Sharpe out.

Strauss, Franks
Moore
Elstadt, Wykes
Messam, Vito, Thomson
Pretorius
Cooper, Beale, Fourie
Lambie, McCabe, Pietersen
