in my initial SC side after considering him, is my first win of the season. Gone after 1 game.

I'm not, but is anyone planning to loop Naicos on the DEF bench this week given his poor score last week?

I'll be looping Pink with Howes

I was considering him this week

Saves me a boost and a future trade

Love you longtime Fagan

Rank 99k. There's a few of them, haha

Great cause, absolute abomination of a guernsey.

 

[Hawk88]

I know its for a good cause and all but....yuck

Hopefully. Started about 110k after week 1 last year too, and was still 92k after Rd 11, but managed to get to 32k by the end. Going to be the same this year I reckon.

Although, played SC about a decade ago and had 4 finishes inside 4k overall back when I played (highest 220). So, I'm guessing it's a combination of me being rubbish these days and it being too easy with the amount of trades and info available?

 

[TempletonTheRat]

what's with the purple - is Cadbury sponsoring the game?

More people play it now than back then too. To even finish top 1000 you need so much luck

To be honest, I think there's way less these days. I remember it being north of 300k playing a decade ago. I think there's only 170k so far this season.

EDIT: Peaked at 401k in 2011. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AFL_SuperCoach

Wow that is surprising to me......maybe because of the sub rule and byes lots of players dropped off

True! They're definitely a nuisance getting worse with R0 nonsense. Although, back then once first bounce happened on a Friday night you were locked out of making any changes to your team until things opened on a Monday or Tuesday.

 

[Changa10]

Surely not. Was one of their better players last game.

As was J Lyons!

I guess the sub rule some people couldn't be stuffed checking the subs each game .
And people lost interest for whatever reason spending time with their families kids etc.

The game has been made harder to play for the casual Coach .....you've got to stay on top of late outs, AFL coach shenanigans, looping ect .....most casual players could not be bothered putting in the time required

I think that's balanced by the plethora of podcasts and youtube video's that give the casuals a huge leg up.

That's why the best rookies have huge ownership for example.

I remember attending GWS match sim in their first yr when there was almost no intel around about it back then. Big leg up at the time, now it's all public knowledge.
