Got a random question? Ask it here.

I'd go Bartel and Hayes in a week or two if money is an issue. They will both be a far bit cheaper (Bartel significantly) and they are absolute premiums.

If cash was absolutely no problem I'd probably get Ablett and Montagna.

Thanks mate. 4 trades left and I need to get Cox out and maybe Foley out so money might be needed.

Couple of things.

1) How long is Brennan out for?

2) If you take the kick when the opposition kicks it out on the full, do you still get 3 points for the kick?

1) Ankle sprain - 1 week at most I would say.

2) Yes but you don't get a free for and there is no free against whoever kicked it out. That's why it is so good having someone like Goddard or NG Brown (when playing!) - whenever the ball goes out on the full they do their hardest running to get the kick.

If you raise your middle finger at the DT Gods, does this directly affect your captaincy scores?

Does it also cause injuries to your team?

Yes on both counts. Sometimes it can also cost you a league game even if you score really well.

Not something I would recommend even if you're a seasoned DTer.

 

[LemmingMaster]

Thanks Skank, it explains my captaincy average of 45 for the last two weeks.

Something to learn for next year, I may have to keep my finger firmly tucked into my pocket.

Are there any forward rookies likely to get a game this week?

Lewis Johnston

Tim Ruffles is another option, if the Dockers keep going down the youth path.
He would have to come in this week, I would check the team sheets to see if he gets a game this week.

 

[muzz777]

Cool, cheers I'll keep an eye out for them.

 

[dick dastardly]

I have a question in regards to when to use your trades in the finals.

If, for example, I finish in the top 4 in my league, have no injury concerns for the whole 4 weeks of the finals, have 4 trades left, and have enough cash in the bank to upgrade any mid-range player to a premium player, at what stage of the finals should I trade?

Do I use 2 trades before the first week to try and get the week's rest, and then another 2 before the Prelim or wait until the Grand Final? Or 1 trade before each week of the finals? Or.....?

Sorry if this question has been asked somewhere else but what are people's thoughts on this?

 

[LemmingMaster]

If you're attempting to win the finals, then just trade as the injuries arrive. If possible keep one trade for the final, but if you get hit with two injuries in the semi, that may mean you lose, then use both trades.

There would be nothing worse losing in the semi, all because you wanted a trade for the final.

Have I woken up hallicinating this morning?

My SC opponent this week has four emergencies - 2 x backs, 1 x ruck and 1 x forward.


I realise it's not DT but thought three emergencies was the norm.

Can you show a screenshot of it?

 

[Jan Juc]

Sure. I'm going to come across as a '**** but what's the easiest way to do it?

His bench reads:

Maguire
Urquhart
Hartlett
Sidebottom
Pyke
Browne
Reid
Thompson

 

[Jan Juc]

No idea if this works....

[Walesy]

wow man, I wonder how they did that! what a perk that would be!

 

[Jan Juc]

For future reference, can somebody give me a quick step-by-step on putting pics in your posts?

Obviously that link works but would prefer to know how to do it properly.

Cheers.

certainly mate. when making a post, there is this button.

Simply insert the link to your picture in the popup, and you're off!

Have you uploaded the image to a site like photobucket? I think you then get the link from there...Thats how I do it anyway.

 

[Jan Juc]

Yep - post no. 241 in this thread has a link to Photobucket where the screen dump of my SC opposition team (four selected emergencies) currently resides.

I pre-apologised for being a '**** - I think I'm copying the wrong link type (?) into the box --- IMG? http? etc.

 

[senrulzisback]

Just copy IMG, and put that into your post, no need to write or do anything else.

Haha that's crazy. Should email VS about it.

I should, but really can't be arsed. It'll have no impact on a league win ($100 league entry in this case).

VS's general apathy with the whole DT/SC zero-player-score fiasco has left a bit of a foul taste in my mouth. Prior to this year, their server issues year after year added to this.

Yet I still come back for more.
