Toast 2015 SuperCoach "Nailed it" thread

I saw a lot of people trading in Oxley after Round 2.

Not many teams started with Gregson or Krakour, who, albeit slow starters or not selected, will IMO be two of the better rookies (certainly ahead of McGrath and Lamb which most people had one of)

Krak not being named and Gregson starting as sub would have worried people.

I took Sinclair as my final mid over Gregson and Anderson as he was not named sub. Happy with that choice.

Anderson had more hype than Gregson, but given Geelongs shocking start Gregson is going to be given every chance, but no one would have picked that.

Gregson i though Lic McCarthy he reminded me of him.

 

[FAILTOSUCCEED]

Bravo if you took Gregson. Would still be a good get if can manage to bring him for someone like Anderson me thinks.

Rookies one of the few things I'm happy with. Kept the faith with Gregson, Miller and Cripps. Got Krak in this week which will possibly allow me to get a 5th premium mid next week in Barlow , Johnson or Parker.

Disagree. There was a lot of hype about Gregson preseason. SJ, Jelwood and Bartel all gave him massive wraps in different interviews.

My point, however, was that the rookies weren't all as easy as they appeared. These two were overlooked by most, for the reasons you highlighted, but still overlooked. Quite a few overlooked Oxley too.

Saad, Heeney, CEY, Clarke, Hogan were locks for most of the preseason. McIntosh became a lock due to being the first rookie selected and locked in the side before other teams were announced. Salem and Vandenberg were too cheap given their NAB to overlook for most.

not starting with Goodes, KK and Anderson

Sometimes I like to look at everyone else succeeding in SC Life... I have no other reason to be here...

 

[Captain Harley]

So... The closest I've come to the carnage is Gray pulling out this week.
Playing around with all my different options today, I settle on Heeney as my scorer (as emergency for the vc loophole).
Couple of minutes before the game I say bugger it, and put the E on Vandenberg... #notevenupset

McIntosh bench (full stop)

Salem bench (loopholed in)

Vandenberg (loopholed in)

NAILED IT.

 

[PACatter]

Hogan on field, Vandenberg loopholed, McIntosh benched.

Edit: Cripps on field. ad infinitum

Make sure to re-quote when Bonts only scores a 60.

Make sure to re-quote when Bonts only scores a 60.

Or when he's a late out and I cop a Fwd doughnut.

 

[Amazing Bombers]

Not trading out Cripps.

 

[Lums23]

Not trading out Cripps.

That's barely nailing it. Just common sense

 

[Amazing Bombers]

Given he was one of the most traded out players not common sense enough.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Holding onto Miller who is doing well atm.
Was always holding on Cripps. Very happy with his score.

 

[jprockbelly]

Bravo if you took Gregson.

Had him round 1 when he was named. Apparently Scott loves him.

 

[Juddy88]

Cheers to those that convinced me to keep Cripps. And also to keep Griffen.

I award you all one internets.

 

[jjsmitty8]

Wines to Hannebery, quite happy.

Good POD, has started the year well!
