Re: Rivalries & Bets
i imagine that they will be. He will probably go out and post a ton next week just to rub it in.
At least its not hard to dump a failed midpricer
FYI - PK scored 2292

Re: Rivalries & Bets
How'd you go FB?
2332 for me, from a quick glance at your team I will assume you did better than that.

Re: Rivalries & Bets
Go awwnnn!!!
I know this is a melbourne cup style event PK, but i'm pulling the whip out and going for home! Have you got the fat lady's number.
Only about 11-12 differences in the side...most on the bench.
If i just trade when you trade (trades being my normal weakness), it will come down to luck on injuries and captaincy choice...a far cry from your 99% win likelihood. I might start a policy of copying your trades 1 week later. This stops me from losing out on a trade strategy and leaves it to luck...your new player's play well in their first week giving you the edge...or...if they play bad/average, then I jump on board the week later and get the adv. Over time I reduce the 11-12 differences to hopefully close to nil.
Currently, I'm leaning ever slightly towards your side with luck to play a big part.
Pendles v Goodes
Tapscott v Curnow
Coad v Stanley
Dal Santo v Montagna
Cotchin v Young Roo
Higgins v Pav
Knights v Petrie
Sylvia v Broughton
Prestia v Atley
Heppell v Harris
Z Smith v Savage
Derrickz v B Mcauley
ACtually screwed up somewhere...who is matching up on Otten?
22 v 23 trades
4587 pts 4544

Re: Rivalries & Bets
2410 for me. Up to 38th overall. Cant believe we are both top 100. Pretty sick contest. I think the rankings are probably a bit deceptive at the moment tho - i think we will know a lot more after the multi-round byes.
YSCC now has 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th ranked leagues

Re: Rivalries & Bets
Bizarre comment. Wouldn't you prefer it to come down to skill? If not, and you think I am more "skillful", then I don't understand the reasoning behind taking the bet in the first place, if all you were going to do was copy my team.

Re: Rivalries & Bets
I'm in a cash league with you, sitting 2nd behind yourself, but i think around 200 pts behind. You're going really well, but i think you are spot on, until we have a couple of these multi bye rounds we wont really know where everyone is

Re: Rivalries & Bets
Just shows how tight it is atm...
...I scored 2304 this week and yet am about 32,000th overall!
...thanks in part to Selwood and Waite in round 1, and Shaw being subbed off at HT this week.
Trading is certainly going to be the key.

Re: Rivalries & Bets
He was subbed off late in the third quarter.
There's been a fair few unlucky coaches thus far.

Re: Rivalries & Bets
I had 3 players that were a sub/subbed this week. Toy, Kraks and Lower. Guess i was just lucky most teams have Lower/Kraks. These subs are going to burn everyone at some point.

Re: Rivalries & Bets
It sucks that it has already though.
Just about every team has a full bench. If we knew the subs on Friday everyone would have score significantly better this week.

Re: Rivalries & Bets
It is more about this contest being a match race. You need to focus on all your league games...and maybe you want overall points win. I'm just focused on beating you and want the best strategy to do that. I don't care about overall points as soon as we made the bet.
Obv I hve had a lucky start from the perspective of your bad luck with Brown/Roo..you must be bottom of all your SCE leagues...cant imagine you being higher than bottom 3.
Bringing in Swan for Selwood broke SC rule 1, but in a match play scenario just took away your best advantage. If I didnt slot him in this week, I would have had Goddard captain...means i'd still be behind making no ground with no Swan as a captain's choice.
As for the bizarro comment..that strat is a real possibility in the event i go up an early lead. Would make it very hard for you to make easy inroads to catch up if i reduce all key differences copying trades.

PK is very much YSCC, not SCE. He was YSCC before his great 2nd finish a couple of years ago.
BTW - i love the way u are messing with his head haha

Re: Rivalries & Bets
The Vandemon/BlueGibbs2011 has a habit of blowing his trades early - he's already used 2 trades in a very sideways action just to keep up early.
Its like sprinting for the finish in the Melbourne Cup just after jumping out of the gates!!

Re: Rivalries & Bets
Wasn't complaining as such...as FBD said, just about everyone had Lower and Krackouer starting...
...just highlighting how a couple of random events can make such a massive diffrence in the rankings.
That to me says that a LOT of teams are extremely similar, and trading will be a vital element moreso this year than most.

YSCC
Yeah, I've got to get my 500 worth of entertainment (teasing) before he just bitch slaps me!
He is safe as houses...i'm already considering 2 trades next week to bring Harris back in...plus I go on holiday in the states for 3 weeks!
I think by week 6, he should be solid!
Note to self...see a therapist about this desire to trade!

Re: Rivalries & Bets
2 unique leagues in top 10 > 4 leagues with the same guys scattered across each.
SCE ftw.

Re: Rivalries & Bets
This makes absolutely no sense. Any single unique yscc league is ranked higher than sce. clutching at straws there mate.
There is a fair bit of difference across the yscc leagues. The 2nd overall league is a public league made up mainly of members who post on the great yscc forums.

Re: Rivalries & Bets
I don't see how that matters as we still have the top spot...
And higher than any SCE league as Donk mentioned.
