Round 8 in the books and I'm stoked to announce that I've managed to sneak back up to the top of the Ferner's Fantasy league standings after chipping away at both @bobily and @jamesb in the last two weeks.
I managed to get some good pay by picking Ben Donaldson, whereas many picked Carter Gordon at 10. That was pretty much the difference this week.
Quite a few players were caught out by the last minute Hotham injury, despite Chapman not scoring too many in the end.
@mikey_woa had the biggest shift this week scoring a very impressive 753 points. Captaining Fihaki was definitely a selection that paid dividends and has also meant he's now putting the heat on @bones for 8th position.
A really competitive round of games coming up which will likely spell yet more position changes prior to the next update. Goodluck everyone.

@Canes4life my co captains of Hotham and Jordan were going to do the business until that fucking last minute change. Boosters would've been a good difference maker this round.

Could have been onto something there, I originally had Hotham as my halfback as well. Felt like he was due a big game.

Another round of Super in the books and it's a fairly similar order to last week, @jamesb slipping down slightly to 4th, while @bobily and @kiwipie rise into positions 2 and 3 respectively.
@bobily went with an interesting but profitable strategy this week stacking his team with Fijian Drua and Force players which resulted in some good pay.
@kiwipie saw massive gains by picking the Chiefs triple threat of Tyrone Thompson, Dmac (captain) and arguably the most inform player in Super right now, Quinn Tupaea.

If only I'd gone for Taumoefolau instead of Carter for my 4th Chiefs player ....

Good call on Thompson, I had him in my side originally before I swapped him out last minute for George Bell. Lucky Bell ended in the points as well and the last Chief I added (Taumoefolau) scored plenty.
It's definitely a game of fine margins and decisions.
I started the week off poorly by picking three Brumbies players with a combined score of 30 points, lucky the rest of my weekend panned out okay.

Was out and missed most of the Blues/ Highlanders game, how did Lam get -1?

Round 10 in the books and there were some absolute howlers this week, with many player picks scoring in the single digits, and some scoring in the negatives. If you scored over 500 points this week, I think you should pat yourselves on the back.
@jamesb had the best round out of all Ferner's this week with 607 points. A superb effort. Sid Harvey and McKenzie brining home solid points for him. A good week sees @jamesb move up to 2nd position.
Overall, I'm still holding a slight lead at the top, but one bad selection can ruin that so the pressure is on.
An intriguing round ahead with the opening of Chch's new roofed stadium and Super round taking place in the Garden city. Make sure to keep close tabs on last minute changes and expect plenty of points on offer. It's going to be a doozy.
