2015 SuperCoach Regrets/Vent Thread

[Lums23]

Not starting with JPK and Jelwood.

They might be scoring shit, but they aren't injured and wouldn't be costing me trades or donuts on my bench

Glass half full and all that shit.

Dustin Martin has averaged more than both of them and has also played every game...

Dustin Martin has averaged more than both of them and has also played every game...

Hogan has scored more points per $ than all three and played all but one game. What's your point?

It's reasonable to expect more from players priced at $649,900 (Selwood) and $612,200 (JPK) right?

They've dropped more than $200K between them, and JPK is going to lose more value rapidly.

Retrospectively, I'd have loved for Selwood to be out for 4-6 weeks with a broken hand after Round 4 or whatever it was. Force the trade whilst he was still worth a lot of money.

He's now stuck, too cheap to trade out, and if he turns the corner, many teams will get on him and ride that, starting from a dirt cheap price.

Of course we should be expecting more, both those guys should be averaging in excess of 115, thats the expectation. But this year like every year sees players drop, Selwood the most puzzling seeing he has consistently finished up the top the last 5 years, hopefully this weekend was a sign of things to come.

Playing SuperCoach. I'm horse shit. Choose the wrong option every time. Changing my surname to Scott right now and going to sit the bench while Neeld goes upstairs to put on his headphones.

 

[hoddo]

In a round where most are struggling I was having my best round of the season with a projected score that had grown to 2465 until ....

Decided to play it safe and take Fyfe's 116 VC score so put non playing ruck Preuss(nth) on the ground as captain and moved Goldstein to the bench.
Waited for the SC site to upgrade after the North game to include Fyfe's extra 116 and Goldstein's 128. When it did update my score was much less than I expected. Checked my team and found I had carelessly failed to put the "E" on Goldstein ....128 points and a potentially high score down the drain

Be a good sport then and post all your choices here. At least you can help other avoid the carnage you suffer.

I've got to the point where I almost just leave Jacobs on the bench with the E permanently after I did the same early on in the year. At least I only missed out on one of Tbc's 70s

I'd rather either. They've played every game and scored more than the injured spuds I've had to trade out of my team; GAJ, Wines, Bartel, Rocky, Sloane. If I had Jelwood or JPK instead of any of those, I wouldn't be ranked 40k with 12 trades left.

It's the old glass half full or half empty question. Those with those two look at the glass half empty, I look at it half full. 90 points a game is better than 0 and a wasted trade.

Hindsight is brilliant. Clearly I would have started with Hannebery, Armitage, Mundy, Priddis, Ward, Sheild, Steven, Ebert, but in Feburary there was no way I would have taken them over any of those mentioned above.

I would have been doing the same thing except that I've hardly had a VC score worth keeping this season.

These "season" based numbers are nice but what is of most relevance is when someone entered your own team and what they average for you based on what they cost you at the time.
if thats rd1 or rd7 is the important factor to consider

 

[rocker_oz33]

MJ -3.
OUT for 8-10 weeks.
The kicker loses almost 50k in SC.
Just FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

The discussion was around Starting with JPK and Selwood, so, for this discussion, they're completely relevant. I totally get your point though.

Sorry mate. My Pavchat phone line went broke after I hung up on all those Freo supporters.

Loving my masterstroke of trading Oxley out yesterday based on rumours of him being a late OUT

 

[FAILTOSUCCEED]

Where do I begin this week.

Lewis, Newnes, CEY, JPK, Gray (C)... Had to play extra rookies on field.

Getting Rockliff in last week, then trading in Lewis... SIGH.

 

[Lums23]

Sidebottom in this week. Thought I'd be smart and get a pod that has been scoring well and was playing Melbourne, despite being nearly at his top price

[Tiges1229]

I played the loophole on Fyfe and went with Robbie Gray, should have taken Fyfes score

In the end that gamble cost me a win as i lost by 20 points

 

[rocker_oz33]

I only lost one game with Gray C choice also with mj -3 grrrrrrrrrrr.
In one of my games he traded OX to yeo.
I said at the time would be piss funny if Ox out scores him.
hehhehehehehehe.
