The Community Grand Play Offs Qualification – Week 2

Here is the latest results from qualification in my American styled Community Grand Playoffs competition. With two weeks gone, next week is your final chance to stake your claim as one of the 256 qualifiers to the First Round Proper. 

There has been a Alexis Sanchez propelled shake up to the standings this week, with last week’s leader SomewhatPleasing falling back to 64th seed whilst KumarMaverick786 moves clear of the pack with a total of 145 points in two weeks after his second consecutive haul of over 70 points.

The key 256th seed is held by joaocfrodrigues who sits on 90 points, and has nine points on the bench under the points on the bench tiebreaker.  There are 50 people within ten points of his seeding so it all very much still to play for. Meanwhile, milestone seedings that should help your progression into later rounds are as follows:

  • 16th – Az 121 points, 17 benched.
  • 32nd – EFCDave1982 117 points, 19 benched.
  • 64th – SomewhatPleasing 111 points, 6 benched.
  • 128th – sid07 102 points, 14 benched.

In a spot of Mod watching d1sable, Jonty, Andy85wsm, TorresMagic and Spencer are all tightly tucked together in qualification spots on scores between 94 and 99.  However Ryan is falling behind on 80 and will need a big score to overcome the 48 managers between him and the 256th seed.

You can view the full seedings in this list here and if you click on the Cann Table tab you can see how tightly packed the rankings still are with one week left to play.

Good luck to all of you in this final week of qualifying, by Sunday night we’ll be saying goodbye to 80 managers so get your captaincy choice right and don’t be one of them.

FPL is a simple game made complicated by double gameweek planners.

    I have no option but to play my bench boost this week to try and qualify.

    Krul and Mbemba will have to keep a clean sheet away to Citeh and keep the Kun (c) players out.

    I am an optimist.!

      I feel quite vulnerable... can't afford another poor GW.

    1 point off not qualifying... dear god this week will be tense.

    5 points safe at the moment, but having already taken a hit, it will be nerve wracking.

    Phew I was worried after a pretty poor GW7 but still 6 points above the drop zone, thought I'd have lost more of my 9 point cushion!

    This has made my mind up about taking a hit this week though, too risky.

    Uh-oh I slipped just outside the qualifying points 🙁

    I need big points....

      I'll take being 6 points within the top 256 after taking a -8 last week.

      Oooooh, on the outside looking in on bench differential. It's all to play for this weekend and I might not even use a transfer. Hmmm.

      Cheers for the update and the tables, Balders. I am hoping to break my streak of never having made it past qualifying for any of these community tournaments.

      Tough week for my team. 1st to 64th ho hum. No Alexis had been a concern for the previous couple of weeks but injuries have prioritised other moves. Last week's wasn't an injury, just addressing the weakest link, Chadli to Pedro (C) and that went well.

      Thanks again Balders for all the hard work.

      Good luck to all this gameweek
