Re: H.sun supercoach

Do we get trades this week and if so will Riewoldts price drop?
First year i have done this so not sure how it works.

You get 20 trades a season and a max of 2 a week.

Roo will only drop about $5k due to his massive first 2 games.

Re: H.sun supercoach

Well I have him! His price should be decent with the Essendon low score. Considering your scoring power, I might keep the advice to myself next time though!

Hehe -- it's good that we have some decent Supercoaches in here though (with yourself our genuine superstar, our 'Gablett' I guess!). Iron sharpens iron, so we all make each other better, I think.

Riewoldt, Tippett and Dangerfield.

Ouch.


How do you change someone from one position to another?

Re: H.sun supercoach

Hey RJ, who are the forwards doing well? Pav looks like the obvious one for me -- already have ROK, Brown, Harvey, and Betts. Really spewing that Nick's gone down from a Supercoach perspective, actually -- I was all settled on my forwardline, and now I have to waste a trade on a lower scoring player and have leftover money (which I hate).

That little bloke running rings around us today looks a decent forward option.

I'm almost tempted to just leave Roo in and play Rockliff and Pods for as long as I can and wait for him to come back and save myself a trade.

He is out for a very long time.

Also, why does Gia not score better in Supercoach? It's always a curious one for me -- he makes so many assists, and gets a bit of the pill, but he rarely breaks 100. I was hoping that this was a year he would (as he's had his best pre-season in a while) but just doesn't look like ever being a big scorer.

He is a funny one. I was considering him too this year but his poor SC conversion put me off. I think it's partly due to his role. Delivering the ball inside 50 means you're a lot more prone to ineffective kicks/clangers than someone playing off HBF for instance. It's also a reason I avoided Bobby.

You need a wingman.

If you have say Tippett who is a ruck/forward, you need another ruck/forward in the other position. Say you have Lobbe who is also a R/F in rucks and Tippett in the forwards, you can swap them,

Re: H.sun supercoach

Bock and Dangerfield really are bad luck, the double whammy is that their price drops because of the low score that comes with an injury. Do you have good defensive cover? I have Maguire as my 8th defender and could probably carry an injury in the area for a couple of weeks.

You can package in a Roo and Dangerfield/Bock trade. Make some money on the Roo trade and upgrade one of the Crows.

My defensive cover is pretty good (McGuire and Silvagni), so I might look to just hold on Bock, although then both will have to play next week, as I'm covering for Hurn also.

How bad is Dangerfield's injury?

Cyril is somewhat undervalued isn't he. Chapman is the other tempting one (a lot more expensive) but he could twang a hammy any moment too.

Bobby put me off for the same reason but I just had a gut feel that Gia would be the main beneficiary of Hally's presence, both in racking up the assists but also perhaps getting among the goals a bit more as a goalsneak. Hasn't worked out that way yet, but he seems to be getting closer. I thought he scored better today than he did.

Re: H.sun supercoach

2016 for myself.

Dangerfield injured didn't help, although Pods scoring 102 was a nice little boost, good to see Barry also with a healthy return.

Yep.

Didak. Goodes and Buddy aren't bad options either.

Yep, and listening to Richo who had a similar injury, might be hard for Roo to come back anywhere near his best for the rest of the season, hammy's that bad can haunt a player for quite a while.

I am not normally one to gloat or be happy when players get injured, but if he comes back and is nowhere near his best for the second half of the season, makes the Saints a much poorer side.....

Buddy + Didak -- I know it shouldn't be personal, but I just can't see myself having Buddy or Didak in my side. Buddy getting owned by Lakey (but still scoring decently, I see) probably makes my decision easier.

Goodes -- had him initially (before Round 1), then went with Browny and ROK, so may well be an option.

Thanks so much RJ! One of the scores I'm most interested in every round is our 'average score' for the leagues I play in, and where it sits relative to everyone else's. If we can get the WOOF leagues up there, it would be a testament to our relative football knowledge, which I think stacks up against any other group of people out there.

2450 isnt a bad score

That's a great score any week and a stunning score this week.

Re: H.sun supercoach

Amazing! Great anytime one breaks 2400. Well done!

Re: H.sun supercoach

Great score. Whats been your score for the first 2 rounds?

Disaster this week for me, after having 2 great weeks of over 2400 just got over the 2000 mark this time.
