719 points for round one as it turns out, so not as dire as I'd thought.

Highest scoring CWer.

See Age has got on the Scotty Moore bandwagon too; he's a steal at $172k.

In SC I got 1197 or something like that. If only...

Yeah fair play, pipped me by 4

Very happy with a few pickups (Moore, Smith were absolute steals, Buchannan looks like a gun) but there are a few that have to go. Forgot Parker wasn't kicking anymore so that leaves him a bit overpriced imo. Not sure what I was thinking with Teo for that money either. Still probably one big earner light on my bench.

Worked for him last week... I'd back against my team every week if I thought it would give them a win.

Stupid Thursday games.

Tell me about it. Going to the pub to put my pub tips in on Thursday feels so wrong. Especially since there's no other **** there.

Going home on Thursday now feels like going home on Friday so today feels like an extra day of work

Week 2

Results a bit more disparate this week with late-comers Biased Indian and Somerset announcing their arrival with a full-house, while Ausage, Brumby and Mister Wright bottomed out with just four winners (the latter two tippers paying the price for getting their homework in late). Johnners meanwhile was a total no-show this week (drinking on his roof?)

Somerset 8.1
Biased Indian 8.1
Uvelocity 7
Howardj 7
Prince EWS 7
Morgeib 6
Alternative 6
Cornonis 5
Burgey 5
Ausage 4
Mister Wright 4
Brumby 4
Johnners 4 (non-submit)



Overall Standings

Alternative retains his lead, albeit a slender one over Howardj and Uvelocity who are positioned nicely

Somerset and Biased Indian off-set their late start with a stellar round, catapulting them to within touching distance of the lead

Some familiar names at the bottom of the table unfortunately, with Burgey, Ausage and Mister Wright needing to lift their games to avoid another long, cold Winter in the basement

Another Thursday night game this week (the grand final rematch no less!) so be sure to set your alarms!


Alternative 13.1
Howardj 13
Uvelocity 12
Somerset 11.1
Biased Indian 11.1
Prince 11
Coronis 10
Morgeib 10
Johnners 10
Brumby 9
Ausage 9
Burgey 9
Mister Wright 8
