To be fair, most of us were put off by the Richmond rookie circus.

After Lloyd, I never considered any more tigers. Miles was a good one that came along too late.
 
No but it was Rocky vs GC with no Ablett....... Seriously considered him as capt.

Always bank the 130+ captain score. I did it with Goldstein this week, happy with that.

One Nick Riewoldt, bought him at 570K when he was top for forwards because my fwd line needed a major band aid. Spudded it up for the next 10 weeks so I traded him at 330k. Scores improve...179 one week back up to 430k, oh the pain! Cost me Rockliff and a needed trade.
 
I'm annoyed that I invested so much time and many nights into the wee hrs overanalysing my squad, only to watch my trades fail and struggle to put up 2200+ scores week in week out.

A very disappointed SC year. Trying my best to stay interested.

About eight rounds ago accidentally messed up the emergencies when using the loophole (new to SC as opposed to DT)

Missed out on a Minson score, which cost me a game.

This mess up means I haven't locked up a top 4 spot, so am now having to waste both time and possibly trades debating what to do as opposed to having had top 4 locked up two weeks ago.

Its a cash league with a relatively significant amount of money on the line, and all the money is in the prelims, so this one mistake might cost me $$$ which could be annoying.

Pretty much this entire season, I am lucky in a few of the Noob leagues from work I sit on top, but they all suck and have no idea how to play this game, but In a few others with some serious players, Ive been found it. It shows a big difference.

I don't know how much luck plays apart in this game, but I did everything right with the rookie selections early on, I just had a few not go my way. Ive also taken the root of playing more POD players this year like: Mundy, N Jones, Priddis which sometimes pays off but other times Ive been burnt. I have already decided I am going to take a different path next season.

Trading out Griff instead of Cooney when both were injured. Thought Griff would cop the tag. Forgot about the fact that Cooney has been a spud all year.

Your regret should pre-date all those things.
Your real regret is letting your doggies rose tinted glasses cloud your supercoach judgement, which led you to even consider cooney in the first place.
Can't play favourites in a numbers game!

Going into round 10 I traded in Minson @509k.

Unfortunately the other two Rucks that I strongly considered were Goldy @469k and Lobbe @443k. If only I had one of them instead!!

Absolutely true, but I've covered that general regret many a time over. This one was a far more specific regret. :D

My man Lobbe. Has been quietly busting out 100's all year round. Started slowly but has had some huuuge scores including 2 X 140's and about 4 or 5 120 +
