Yep, another poor year, but not too poor? Actually, a pretty midling year, but I did feel like I was in control of my season, despite a horrid start. This bad start, was my worst start to NRL Supercoach ever. Here are some highlights/lowlights:
- Gameweek 3, I achieved my worst ever round position that I can recall, that week ranking 104,581.
- This poor Gameweek 3 score gave me my worst ever Overall Season Rank, with my overall position dropping as low a 85,059, a new record I believe.
- By Gameweek 5, I had participated in 40 H2H match ups, winning only 4 of these. A 10% success rate is pretty poor by any standard.
- A solid to take from this, is that I turned it around after that, and started the long climb up the ladder. If there is a consulation to take from it all, it is that I achieved my highest Season Rank of the year in the last Gameweek of the season.
- Unfortunately, I did not make many major mistakes, other than ones that were luck / variance related. Example: Starting with Drinkwater at FLB, only to have him score 59 in Gameweek 1 ( I also captained him this round), and then in Round 2, he scored 1 point, and managed to get injured, as well a being suspended for 3 games. FML. Bad pick? Not really, as he ended up the second highest scoring FLB (6th overall) for the season, with an average score of 83.4, with only Ponga beating in the position with an average of 87.4. Seriously, that has to be seen as some kind of unlucky.
- I might need to start considering that I just plain suck at this game. Hell, I could not even win The inaugural UNLUCKY! League (not to be confused with The UNLUCKY! Cup, which is my $50 cash league) against a bunch of rookies, losing the GF by 5 points, seriously, FML. Looking at my previous Final Ranks for NRL Supercoach
- Just, Fuck.
So anyway, I am not going to list all the leagues and competitions I was in, as really, I don’t have much more to add than what I have already mentioned above. Sure, I got plenty of stuff I could whinge about, but there is no point, I just have to be better at this damn fantasy sport caper, if I wish to keep playing in cash leagues. Anyway, the below graphic sums up the leagues that I took part in:
For the record, and just to put down a marker in the sand and to help track my performance year on year, here is how I fared in the Groups that I took part in this year:
Damn, when I look at my yearly average NRL Supercoach final position below, I guess I did not do too bad. I might continue to track this using this table.

So, months have passed since the end of the season, and I have still not published this post, which shows the level of interest I had once I wrapped up for the season. Hell, I could not even be bothered to look over what I wrote months ago, so in the name of keeping this Season Review short, I might as well leave it there. I am keen for next season, to try and turn my Supercoach, and fantasy form around, and prevent the dreaded fantasy recession! Fuck it, if I need to add anything, UNLUCKY!, I can just edit the post later!
