NRL GRID

Have any of you lads and ladies played it?
I’ve been racking my brain trying to come up with some good low scores but **** it’s hard especially without looking back on rosters.
 
Yeah people are loving this game atm. I just gave it a go and sucked, but we should share our scores!

Problem for me is it’s only back to 1998, I remember more obscure players from before then than after haha.
 
Loving the game. Got 28 yesterday with the Knights and Johns theme. Was too 50 for a while and then dropped out. I reckon some (not all) cheat playing it though. That’s the only bad thing it’s so easy to look up the answers and go back to it.
 
So how does it work when you get a red cell? You retry it but then it only gives you so many reds before you fail totally? I’m confused lol.

Realising I don’t know too many obscure answers.
This is probably one of the first ones I’ve been able to finish, and get some surprisingly rare answers.

It features a Knights category too.
 
I can never finish them either. It’s quite sad really. 😂 Did think I was going to get there on today’s one but got the Storm jersey muddled up for a Cowboys one. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Got away with it for Tariq Sims too lol.
 
Yehh I struggle with the “played for x and y”.
I don’t know too many other teams rosters very well, especially over the years.

I don’t really understand what’s allowed and not allowed.
Can I try to improve on answers?
 
Just to record that I actually finished one!

Hadn't seen this before...I did an early one with the ability to draw on a lot of Knights knowledge and insight....but looking at the scores of others though, I've still got a long way to go :oops: (EDIT - can anybody explain to me what the number in the middle of each of the 9 squares represents...I'm guessing it is the total number of players who qualify for that square category?)

Usually I can’t even complete it, let alone get a good score 😂 Here’s mine from the other day, having the Knights in there definitely helps:

I must admit, I've lost a bit of interest in doing the NRL Grid in recent weeks, but I do take an interest and pretty much ONLY do it if the Knights are involved ... but as good as I can do (I've gotten a couple of 0.00 individual scores), there are ones that just don't have scores in the unicorn or wizard catagories. I forget what it was now a month or so ago, something like a Knights player who'd scored 100+ points in a season during their career. The most abstract, least obvious player still scored a 5 or a 6. And I went through EVERY NRL season's records and compared every one of those 100+ points players who'd ever laced on a boot for Newcastle.

Maybe I've not quite understood the game, but the way I've been thinking it is, is: Before you choose your player, the boxes have 3 numbers. A number next to a down arrow that I've taken to be the lowest score possible from that box's catagories, another number next to an upward arrow that, conversely, I've taken as meaning the highest score possible (apart from 'wrong' which gets you 100 points!), and the main number that I'm confident is the amount of players eligible to be a correct answer in that box.
