Why do they make it so youre only suppose to open a milk carton at one end?

 

[1989]

I think they could leave it all the same for SuperCoach with 17 teams, as everyone is in the same boat at the start of the year. The only down side would be that you would be a lot less likely to select players, especially keepers, whose teams have the bye during SC finals time.

So you don't have to stand on your head to read the ingredients?

 

[Jack4814]

Mmm I meant on the left rather than the right or vice versa

Why do I have to open the Shapes box up on the right end, when I might just throw the box out anyway?

Next time you get milk, open it on the other side and see what happens. Maybe it's bad luck

My thought is that they my have 1 or 2 special bench players that can cover all positions on the ground

Stick with Sam Mitchell or drop him? He has lost 100k which makes finding a replacement DAM hard. I have 50k banked so can still only get a 500er thoughts?

Stick with him man, the only person I would trade for around that price is boomer, he is set for a huge price increas this week i think his BE is like under 10.

Ahh good to be back. Gotta say its been a long week

For SC scoring purposes, what is classed as a 'hitout to advantage'? Does the tap have to go directly to a teammate?

 

[Nikkisixx79]

Want to get pods in this week should I downgrade mayne or zieball?

To or into the path of a teammate enroute to a clearance.

Okay, thanks. So being a good ruckman is one thing, but he would need some good midfielders around him who can get the ball out of the centre?

Pretty much, but if you are a freak like Sandi geting 40-50 some days im sure you will have atleast 10-15 to advantage which = 30-45 (unweighted) points.

But then you look at the Hawks and Pies who have good mids but Hawks rove to opposition ruckmen, whilst Pies have 2 really good rucks who play around 55-60% game team thus reducing the efect they have on the game, leading to a lower SC score.

On the Richmond board we were discussing how to stop Sandi and some1 come up with a really funny, but good tactic of not playing a ruckman at all have 4 roving players in the middle and no ruck. Every time he goes for a boundry throw in just rove to him, but bump him all the time make him sore and scared of going for the ball without getting a dodge elbow. With the rule being you can not grab it out of the ruck this could almost work would free up to spots on the 22 to play running mids, or you just play with the 1 ruck and play him as a foward (Simmonds) and use him only occasionally.

My suggestion was play Jake King, get him to knock out Sandi and it would solve 2 problems, 1 king gone for the season and 2 Sandi gone for the match

I don't think you can knock someone out by reaching up and hitting them in the knee.

Yeah that was the delima I hade in the end. He could also try jump really really high and headbutt him in the nuts

 

[Billyc]

Thoughts:

Ellis to Schmidt; Riewoldt to Chapman

or

Riewoldt to Pods; Howlett/Martin to Ablett.

Annoying to pay top dollar for Ablett but I was wrong not to pick him in the first place. Should I just cough up?

 

[The Bear]

Pods or Rockliff as a permanent bench backup for the year?

 

[PHOOTEE]

Which 2 of these 4 should i have on the ground this week?

-Pods
-Peterson
-Rockliff
-Gumby

cheers guys

Probably Pods and Rockliff for mine, but I can't split em a heap.

My Question:

Is it worth blowing a trade to replace Hitchcock for Pods/Rockliff? Already used 16

And I thought I loved to trade!

Would never have noticed. Do you have an opinion on the topic though?

 

[russea]

Okay bit the bullet rockliff in, Hitchcock out
Now the questions continue
Who to start Jpod or Rocklobster

 

[Judd_Magic]

I reckon its an ok trade if you don't have any bench cover at all.

If you have Gumby then maybe hold off and wait for Hitchcock to come back.

That's what I was thinking though. Will he come back, and for how long?
