First things first.
The Eliminator.
I got so amazingly lucky this week. 1954 - and made it though.
Mind you, the efforts of McIntosh, Shaw, Macdonald and my favorite, Captain Franklin, tried their darnest to sink me, while on the other side, we saw smashing efforts by Hille, Osborne and Murphy, I managed to squeek through by 50 odd points because he wore a Jake King donut in the backline.
*phew*
Now, you may have seen me say - McIntosh. OUCH.
but what to do... Sadly, I'm feeling that the answer to that is: Something crazy.
So here's the plan.
I'm going to field Kruezer... and downgrade McIntosh.
However, there is method to this madness... my final upgrade that I really needed to do was Jack. (Yes, I still have Jack on the field! How am I in the eliminator?? :D)
By downgrading McIntosh (Ave: 70), and fielding Kruezer (Ave: 50), I'll be able to upgrade Jack (Ave: 62) to Gablett (Ave: 117).
This would net me an extra 35 points per week, but also sure up my Captain...
Yeah, crazy... like a FOX!
So, if you're in the Eliminator this week, give us a shout out! There's only 1000 of us left!
im stil in the eliminator, and have some bloke ranked 16000 overall this week :) In terms of your trades you reckon Gablett is still worth it at half a million?

You want to know the scary thing about Gablett.
Over the past 5 weeks, his *average* works out to a salary of roughly 503k.
While I wouldn't say he's a bargain to get into, he's definitely a powerhouse that I think will be neccessary to take the eliminator out with... :) maybe. :D

yeah good point, but i dont think his *average* will be getting any better given it is virtually super human now.... :)
