    Famous DT Coaches Thread 2012

    It might be best to invoke the mercy rule and officially remove me from this thread. Tonight I somehow managed to lose track of time and didn't update any of my teams before lockout! In DT I have about nine donuts with the likes of Swan, Heppell and Malceski still on the bench. On the plus...

    There'll be no inside info for you, pal. I'm hunting you down in sportsbet. :) I made one trade in DT this week, bringing in Zorko. I had to decide between Smith and Treloar to trade out, and inevitably settled on the latter. I've been quite literally on fire with my Giants-related...

    Very true. I guess it comes down to whether those upgrades are going to net you as many points as the zeros you'd cover. And the answer is probably yes. Come on O... get back out there!

    Famous DT Coaches Thread 2012

    One thing I've been giving a bit of thought to over the last couple of weeks is what to do with my rucks heading into the byes. With Big O and Redden MIA recently, there's obviously a big chance a lot of coaches will be facing donuts when their starting rucks have the bye. For my DT it'll be...

    Tongue was firmly in cheek :) I'm going ok though: up to 25th with decent amount of trades and team looking solid. Just got to work out how to play the byes. But enough of derailing the thread with silly SC, we're here to discuss the much more noble game of DT!

    Good luck footylover18... you're really well placed! I made two more trades last week, both pretty straightforward- OUT: Ellis, Shiel IN: Heppell, Horsley Heppell and Shiel were partly influenced by the bye. I only had two Rd 12 bye backs in Malceski and Clarke, so Heppell seemed a...

    I did. I went OUT: Ablett, Dempsey. IN: Treloar, Deledio. I am well aware I am blitzing through my trades, but there is a method to my madness. Sort of. It's actually more of a league-focussed strategy. I'm in a couple of very strong cash leagues and I'm trying to notch up as many wins as...

    I'll settle down soon. Maybe. After I trade GAJ :) I liked Bax's trades this week. I'm considering how to best get Treloar into my side. FWIW my SC team (which is based on my DT before I screwed it with my Tom Effing Lynch obsession) would have gone close to taking overall this week if I'd...

    It was a stroke of something, probably not genius though! Oh well... I guess I always had to grow up, get a job, a haircut and a real ruckman one day. Fortunately the Fyfe injury gave me a flimsy excuse to do another double trade. OUT: Fyfe, Redden. IN: Clancee Pearce, Kreuzer. Obviously...

    I picked him hoping he could provide a serviceable 70+ average over the first half of the season, before a making minor upgrade to a fallen premium. I obviously regret trading him out now because he may have secured an extended run in the starting side, but it's still hard to say whether it...

    I made two trades this week- Out: C Howard and T Lynch, In: P Hanley and T Couch. The decision to flick Howard was pretty simple: I figured there wasn't much point carrying a speculative mid-pricer through several weeks of injury. I learnt that lesson with Paul Medhurst a couple of years ago...

    Close... 1993 . Crap though, yeah. Although I had three players start or end as sub, one go off injured and had three hundreds and a 90 on my bench so there's maybe some scope for improvement.

    Famous DT Coaches Thread 2012

    Haha, probably fair enough too! :) I do realise the ruck set-up is insanely risky. I actually think Giles and Redden can both average 70+ and have good job security. Although even taking that into account - I'm going to have to rely on luck for them to both play through until a time when I...

    Here's my starting side for this year: I'll post something about my selections tomorrow when I figure out what the hell I was thinking. Hope you've all made a promising start... cheers!

    I'd be happy to have another crack this year. I need the free advice.
