Teams SC 2015 - My team (During NAB)

[Stickers32]

He'll average 90 and he's priced at 65. Seems like a bargain to me.

I'd prefer to pay for someone who will avg 120 especially in the mids.. Taking no risks

I wouldn't pick Van Berlo, not likely to score very high at all IMO. There will be 120K rookies that score more than him.

Why do people think this? I'm curious. Van Berlo will apparently be just another midfielder, and not tagger. He has the talent to earn.
Why are some people not choosing him? What reasons are there?
Cheers!!!

Only averaged more than 80 twice in his career, once way back in 2008 with 84 and 2012 with 87. Not exactly enticing.

He's not a keeper. He's just a solid, consistent scorer.

That seems like before he was tagging surely? For such a supreme runner they are low scores. Do you know when he was made to tag?
Thnx for reply too mate!

 

[dread and might]

Not necessarily. I just made the team below with 500k still in the bank. Several undervalued premiums & potential premiums. Along with a few super-premiums to take advantage of C/VC scores.

For argument sake, lets say all the non rookie selections work out, at least up until Rd 6 & you're ranked top 1-3k with this side. Well you have 500k to make 2 early rookie upgrades without having to downgrade. #WINNING

On the negative side if 2-3 of the undervalued premo's and or mid pricers don't look like working out, you have the cash to upgrade them to proven super premo's, no real harm done.

Basically it gives you the option of taking a few risks initially, but with a safety net incase the risks dont work out. Better than putting all your eggs in a similar side except of maybe 1 more premium which is neither here nor there.

It's irrelevant when he was made to tag (I wasn't actually aware he did tag) because his scores have been consistent over his career. A year to year average breakdown looks like this:

27
61
77
84
78
79
87
76
66

Spend 120k less on a rookie and you'll get similar scores.

The most he has ever averaged is 90. Coming back from a year off, potentially playing in a different position, might not reach his peak again this year.

And the other thing is, if he averages 90 your gonna be trading him out anyway, less risk making coin with a couple of rookies.

Rich is guaranteed to play. Off the backline with his accuracy? Just might be worth the risk, one I will take ATM!

 

[Jiska]

Is it stupid to start with 280K spare?

I'm likely to start with 100k spare at this point (unless I swap Heeney or Anderson to Newton, which I'll do if either aren't selected Round 1)

 

[Noobz0r]

Moved over for my first season on Supercoach from Dream team, so unsure exactly how this team looks. Advice welcome!

B: Smith, Hodge, Ibbotson, Rohan, Edwards, Hamling (Goddard, Saad)

M: Fyfe, Beams, Lewis, Dangerfield, Wines, Martin, Newton, Anderson (Vandenberg, Laverde, Freeman)

R: Goldstein, Lobbe (Naismith)

F: Gray, Deledio, Zorko, Clarke, Saad, Steele (Krakeour, Lambert)

For those of you who are having trouble deciding between premiums/which guns to pick - ask yourself this: will the premium i'm picking finish in the Top 10 for their position come seasons end? If the answer is no, don't pick them.

He is not a consistent high possession winner regardless of the role.

Easier said than done predicting the top 10 in each position from year to year. As noted plenty of times on this forum, the midfield top 10 in particular changes dramatically each year.

 

[MarchingOnTogether]

Fairly content with this team. Granted no midfield SUPERstar. I was once told playing supercoach without lil Gaz was like facing Shoaib Akhtar without a box. But I just cant bring myself to spend the money. #picktheaccountant

Rucks could be an issue, but I think Giles is well ahead of Belly and Zac Smith could be a great money earner. Rooks will be retweaked at the team naming for round 1.

Well there goes the theory that people who are good with numbers are also good at SC.

I always go for value, except the one exception is you need at least 2 of the top midfielders as c/vc. Even if they are overvalued missing the double points captancy bonus will kill you. Plus somehow you will have to find a way to trade in Ablett, Rocky, Fyfe, Selwood and Pendles during the year. Trust me you're playing Russian roulette with 5 of the 6 chambers loaded. Will only work if Sidebottom AND Gray both go 120-130 ave before the byes. Also one of your 2 biggest spends (Gray) is overvalued - check Port's start to the year.

Just don't do it

 

[MotlopMagic]

I'm reasonably happy with this team. My main POD is having only 4 midfield premiums and Trent McKenzie in the back line. Any thoughts?

Couldn't agree more, the top 10 usually has 6 or 7 new faces in it every year.

GAZ, Pendles and Selwood have been the most consistent in history.

The above 3 were the only 3 from the top 10 mids in 13' to remain in 14', so thats 7 new faces, and previous years paint pretty much the same picture.

This is a massive supercoach misconception, which really has no substantial bearing on your season.

how do i post my team

If you're using Mac, it's Command+Control+4. Select the area you want to print screen, then it'll be on your desktop. Minimise the window, grab it off the desktop and drop it in the text box then you can either leave it as a link, or choose "view full thumbnail".

If you don't use Mac, then I actually can't remember how to print screen lol.

 

[Lums23]

IN - Gray, Martin, Salem, Cripps
OUT - Ziebell, Mitchell, Cameron, Rich

Backs - Heath Shaw, Brodie Smith, Jack Newnes, Taylor Hunt, Jamie MacMillan, Nathan Brown (Shaun Edwards, Joel Hamling)

Mids - Gary Ablett, Scott Pendlebury, Matt Priddis, Patrick Dangerfield, Jack Steven, Nathan Van Berlo, Ben Newton, Patrick Cripps (Jed Anderson, Nathan Freeman, Trent Dumont)

Rucks - Todd Goldstein, Nic Naitanui (Sam Durdin)

Forwards - Robbie Gray, Dustin Martin, Dane Swan, Christian Salem, Mitch Clark, Jesse Hogan (Jack Steele, Nathan Krakouer)

Thoughts now?

I honestly think Durdin is about as likely to play this year as Mason Cox. There are much better ways to spend that 40k

 

[Daniels]

Here come more "Ablett-less" versions

Interesting!

 

[Lums23]

I struggle to see why you would go Rich over Wells, even if you do want someone in that price range. Hasn't averaged much below 90 for most of his career, and has been over 100 a few times too
