Game Day 2025 Round 15 Discussion

[DenieD]

Baz, Martin and Holmes carrying over $3.4 mil between them combining for only 250 points this week. YUCK!

 

[RavensFever]

I kept dunkley and finally he delivers along with zorko also shout out to new recruit Luke jackson, my score also includes 3 spuds in zerrett, Clarke and zac Johnson that will be replace as have 10 premos and C to be decided

 

[Phar Ace]

He's been averaging 81% Tog for the last 5 weeks, he's on 95% Tog tonight

That's not predictable that's just plain annoying. Let us traders wallow in peace

My theory was simple in holding Dunks - he was going to Baz most of the time, and that dragged him to the ball more.

 

[danster168]

Damn Dunkley. 5 weeks of trash and now this out of nowhere.

Oh well at least Holmes returned to the norm. owners kissed with his back pocket junk in recent weeks

 

[LOLchie Schultz]

Could make some serious ground on those that Captained Smith.

 

[Phar Ace]

Lohmann 80 stings...cash gen reset again now.

Fluked holding him, just didn't have enough $$ on him

All the top teams will be in same situation but yeah it looks bad and I'll add miers and zerrett to that equation

 

[TheKev]

Sheldon to Dunkers in a few weeks looks tasty

 

[LOLchie Schultz]

The 34k Lohmann made tonight will go to good use next week

 

[LOLchie Schultz]

Lohmann 80 stings...cash gen reset again now.

If 80 stings, wait until you find out he finished with 84

 

[Shaunn]

19 premos this week and meant to be a strong round for me but ive missed out on Serong, Jackson and C on Smith while all my premos so far are way unders, week is looking grim.

 

[squashface]

Pray for me today.

My grand master plan was hold Merrett because surely Bradley couldn’t keep him off ball for long.

And trade Zorko for R16 bye relief.

Goodnight.

 

[LOLchie Schultz]

646/6vc

Only had Smith running around tonight. I traded Zorko (BE+1) for Cheezels before the bounce and was content with his score up until that last 6 points with 4 seconds left, oh well. Kept Lohmann but moved him to the bench and took Mays 74, happy with 34k though.

One man's trash is another man's treasure - a couple of tasty match ups after the bye - nice underpriced premo territory

Bit of media now on how brain dead it is to play him on the wing and in pockets so hopefully post-bye he finds his way back to the footy.

 

[Sonny Hayes]

I think you're my favourite person on this forum.

The level of conviction you have that you're uniquely hard done by almost makes me believe it's true! One has to admire the sheer disregard required to ignore that everyone on here has the same team and has made the same moves. It takes a lot of confidence to post such frequent long rants to people going through the exact same thing.

The Iceman might just be that bad at this game, that he has transcended fantasy and is actually the person that curses players to bad scores when he trades them in.

Thank you for this compliment, clearly the rest of the comment is just more praising of myself so I will just skip over the rest

 

[dplggr47]

I traded Washcroft and he made his BE

 

[JADED]

I traded Washcroft and he made his BE

Not quite
B.E 113, Score 108.
You win.

The write up is great (how many people do you have on the SC board, there is some serious effort in these posts).

My only concern with the Supercoach cross-posting (other than my distaste for seeing supercoach references and scoring generally) is that the statistics about scores and price etc may confuse novice players on this board if they can't immediately tell the difference between the SC stuff and (real) Fantasy. Talks about trade targets etc can also be a bit confusing given the SC bubble and the limited trades make considerations different.

Maybe there is a middle ground where we copy and paste the weekend summary / jokes about players, but exclude all the gameplay chat?

Scythe will get our mob thru the byes this coming week anyway and could have a go at adding in some Fantasy content this week or just write a broader general 'the week that was' bit and then the board here will know its own prime targets amongst those mentioned (and not).

What might vary a little is the targets and whether the juice is worth the squeeze in format A vs B. Fantasy 100% use it or lose it and the price movements are immediate (5-rd cycle, with them subbing in the priced at score for the other first 4 weeks then 3, then ..., something like that from memory., but going back a way)
Plus Tim Taranto can kick 14,000 floaters off the side of the boot in fantasy and it's all gravy, rucks are gauges on pure HO vs HTA etc.

 

[gutsroy]

Disclaimer: no shade on Taranto, was just one I remember used to do better in Fantasy than SC.

 

[bettingonbetts]

Already frustrated at this week.
My opponent had Serong VC and Ryan as uniques, ffs.
And my uniques in Martin and Holmes are dogshit
Need a massive score from Dale (C) to make up for it
He still has Levi but I assume he’s probably traded him and it will change at some point.
NWM and Sinclair also need to go bananas for me

My rank is just stagnant at 400. I’m not making any movement these byes and it’s frustrating

 

[Stoo79]

400 not bad! I went from 4k to 7k but have only been a League 8 level player the last few seasons.

Not fantastic but a lot of bullets dodged already for my 513/5, plus Lohmann to come on from the bench.

-Traded out Zerrett for Dale
-Baz my only Cat, and only VC too
-Got rid of Lashcroft - would’ve been mad seeing Lohmann score more
-Didn’t bring in Johnson, purely as too many on the bye next week
-Jackson and Zorko making up for Baz, Martin and Clarke

Gonna be plenty of other bullets to dodge but for now it’s a win. And having not had Dunkley this year it didn’t bother me seeing him score.

Next up is seeing whether JHF plays, if not then Darcy to come in instead. And thinking Dale C

 

[4tune8]

3/453 Jacko, still wondering whether I should take Clarke's 66 over FOS?

I reckon all you guys are playing this game arse about, the key here is not to have any premos then you don't get disappointed with poor scores. My team is a sackful of potato's, so I'm rarely upset when they put up shit scores.

 

[Barrybran]

8/988 C

Rough night. Dunkley drops a 120 after trading him, Smith drops a 90 as captain after passing on Brayshaw's 104, and Holmes and Miers were subpar.

 

[Gumby2Hurley]

496/5 21 this week + Johnson as M9. Excluding Clarke's 66 and Keeler is my other rookie on field. Unsure on who the C.

Rozz... Dale.. Sincs...xerri? if Bont was a brownlow contender no doubt he goes 120+
