2015 SuperCoach Regrets/Vent Thread

[Flandersss]

Not trading Oxley>Rance 2 weeks ago when Rance was 10k cheaper.

+1.

Had to trade Saad because of this.

 

[Krujan]

+1.

Had to trade Saad because of this.

Same here, I needed $ for GAJ but still had just enough $ to do Ox>Rance for Rd15 but chose to save that trade. It was an oversight on my part as I didn't realise that Rance had such a low B/E. He's gone up 60k this week, so that ship has well and truly sailed.

 

[Vapor]

I never had the money or trades available to get Goldstein. Every week there were more pressing issues to take care of.

I'm really paying for it now, may as well not be playing

 

[Pavlovs Cat]

Ablett, Wines, Bartel, Rockliff, Sloane. Cursed in midfield this year.

Bartels only a forward.

 

[Hairy Lager]

Lets play a game, name the players in your side that haven't been injured.
Nutnut and Shaw are massive standouts for me, anyone else?

EDIT: Make that haven't missed a game al year.

Injured as in missed games? Or just injured enough to be out of form for a significant amount of time?

Players that haven't missed a game all season, Shaw and Nutnut COULD go through this season without missing a game, that would turn the world on its head.

Hmmm, guys I've had from the start that haven't missed a game for me:
Shaw
Dusty
Goldy
Fyfe
Beams

I'd be fairly confident that 4 of those 5 will play 22 games.

Theres 2 that had question marks over there heads at the start of the season,
Shaw, Hibberd, Fyfe, Nutnut, Martin, Franklin and Swan for me out of 14 premos selected to start the season.

 

[NinjaSwan]

Shaw
Hibberd
Newnes
Fyfe
Pendles
Goldy
NicNat
Dusty

8 premos that I started with have played every game for me, I got Kieren Jack round 2 so I guess you could add him in there as well.

 

[Thuggee_Cult]

I just caught up on this thread as I haven't been on it for a couple of months. Awesome reading

Since we are at the pointy end of the year pre finals here's my list:

Round 1
Starting with these spuds:
- Griffen over Jack Steven due to bye structure. Never again - **** Griffen & **** the byes.
- Lamb over Lonie
- Will Minson: where do I start?

Not starting with
Robbie Gray - my secret shame!
Todd Goldstein

Round 3
GAJ > Jordan Lewis. Bald champ to balding campaigner. Should have gone to Gray.

Round 11
Bringing in Dumont over Boston due to bye structure. Again, **** the bye rounds.

I have no regrets starting R1 with Bartel and GAJ, nor bringing Rocky and Sloane in when they were dirt cheap.

I'll no doubt be in here again at some time soon

 

[MightyMark]

Bartels only a forward.

Let him have his rant, you know you've been hurting too

Where are all those that said NutNut was injury prone now.

 

[Hoges64]

My question marks weren't over his injury history, but more towards his scoring ability. For the first 9 rounds or so I was super happy with my decision of Maric over NutNut, but they've both swung their form in the opposite directions and he's killing me now.

Yeah wasnt too happy with Nutnut output early on, although his 90ppg wasn't terrible.

 

[stevebbb]

Decided to bring in Motlop as F7 because I expected Lambert and/or Steele to not be playing regularly
Now they're both playing and I can't loophole, so I'm stuck with a ~120 score from Motlop on the bench

Ffs

 

[KingLonie]

Mumford > Stef Martin instead of Goldy.
Getting in Houli instead of Rance last week. Only early, but lost a league game because of it

 

[Werewolf]

Traded Motlop out half an hour before the game today, and he has a blinder. Bloody typical

 

[DV2000]

In the pre-season when I was building my team I had to decide between Goldstein and Jacobs. I chose Jacobs, mainly because of his superior "hitouts to advantage" numbers in 2014, because there was a change in SC scoring that aparently would benefit ruckman who got more hitouts to advantage, instead of just hitouts. I thought that paying the extra $50,000 for Jacobs would be the best option, as he would continue on with his 2014 form in being the best SC ruckman in the game and score me ~115 points a game.

Since the beginning of the season, Jacobs has lost 120k of value, and is averaging about 101 per game. On the other hand, Goldstein has increased in value by about 90k (by the end of this round he'll have shot up by around 110k), and will be averaging about 124.

So overall, that one decision has so far lost me $210,000 of cash, and left me with 23 points less every single game. This sort of s*** makes me hate SuperCoach sometimes!!!

I did the exact same thing. I know how you're feeling, Steven has been a top 10 midfielder and has made ten of thousands of dollars, while Griffen has been an average SC player and has lost quite a bit of cash. Oh, and Steven was about $50,000 cheaper than Griffo at the beginning of the season

It's cost you 50k not 210k, how much Goldy and Jacobs and has gone up or down in price is irrelevant because you're not trading them out.

Hey look big bootaaaaah, he grabbed his post from 24 hours ago and copy/pasted it. Talk about lazy.

A case of déjà vu.

But that's not supercoaches fault.....that's yours

how the f*** would you be able to predict that this situation would play out before the season had even started? If anything, you would put your money on Jacobs averaging higher than Goldstein. That's just common sense. Jacobs averaged 115 in 2014, whereas goldy was going at much less. Jacobs also got more hitouts to advantage than goldy in 2014. Please explain.

I started with Jacobs and traded him round 2 when I saw he was playing shit.

May as well copy/paste the whole convo.

lol at least asho81 takes the time to rephrase his comments.

well....it sorta is relevant. What if I wanted to trade in Goldy? And what if I wanted to trade out Jacobs to get him?

Ow snap.

P.s. Soz bout the Swans tonight.
