SuperCoach 2016: Vents & Regrets Thread

[MightyMark]

Starting with all of Michael Barlow, Matthew Boyd, Jimmy Bartel, Scott Pendlebury and Joel Selwood as well as trading Hartley out for Brand prior to round 1.

Not startin Weitering, Merrett and Johaniessen, Pittard and Franklin, all who were firmly in my side in the week leading up to Round 1.

I dont regret Jelwood, averaging 104 as a 550K player, could be worse.

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

Rockly, B.Crouch, Barlow (Biggest spud of them all) and more importantly not backing my own judgement, my pre Nab team was far better than that one I have now

+1.

I wanna hold Sam Gray but after doing some research damn it's not looking good.

Running a a disposal efficiency average of just 57% over the four rounds.

His best score so far was a 99 in RD 1.. He had 37 disposals ? What is he doing....

He's priced at $421,00 has dropped 60k and has a BE of 119 this week

He's a mid/fwd has kicked just two points.

Averaging 23 disposals with just over a 57% disposal efficiency and no scoreboard impact.

Sam bloody Gray you are a spud and I regret picking you.

Heath Shaw. Should still be a top defender so was a safe pick, but in hindsight, 600k was a lot to spend on a defender for the output he could potentially produce. Would have had far better team balance at this point if i didn't start him.

You have to spend money mate.

I went Shaw, Rance, Laird +rookies in the backline. My reasoning? Can't trust DEF so get the safest available.

If you don't buy Shaw you go and buy some mid priced junk like Sherridan or Lonergan and you're desperately trying to trade them out.

 

[gcsunsfc]

Cant get my bench right
Rd2 adams 139 on the pine
rd3 weitering 129
rd4 tippa 106
Whilst ofcourse getting a 50 on the field

exactly the same. Cost us a few hundred points!

Didn't buy Shaw and didn't have any midpricer junk like Sheridan or Lonergan, just because its Shaw doesn't mean he is the safest or best option especially at his original price.
Could of gone Rance-Houli-Gibson-JJ-Laird which I basically did after trading Barlow > Gibson in round 2...plenty of safe options in defence without going to midprice junk.

Only regrets for me this season so far, Barlow/SGray. Barlow is already out and Gray will probably be turned into Zorko/Danger/Fyfe/Mitchell next week.

 

[jjsmitty8]

I regret my first and only 2 trades of the year. Barlow to JJ and McCarthy to Papley. I would have been SLIGHTLY better off not doing it, I take comfort in knowing I didn't completely screw it.

 

[Glorin]

Get stuffed McGovern. You ponce around for the first 4 rounds looking like your arm could drop off at any stage and the screen was going to brought out on the ground. Then you come out and do what I knew you could do as my d4 and light things up the week after I get rid of you.
I am sorry I lost faith but that sort of score after we have parted really hurts and makes me think I was nothing to you. I made a mistake in letting you go but remember I did start you over lots of others, it was you that let me down first. I am sure we can get through this, but the pain is still raw. I need time, maybe rd 1 next year, as long as you spud up at the end of the year and start off at a nice price!

 

[Sprout]

Sam Gray putting forward a strong case for the worst decision ever.

 

[superfraser]

Chad Wingard can eat. a. dick.

I have no one to blame but myself.

I read Mark Robinson's top 50 - mistake. And then continued on to the additional reading, regarding Robinson's top 50, where he mentioned having a chat with Ken Hinkley, and Ken Hinkley suggested that Wingard should be considered in the top 4 players in the league by the end of this year, Fyfe, GAJ, Danger and Wingard.
At this point in time, Wingard would be lucky to be considered in the top 4 players in the Port Adelaide forward line.

Why did I listen to Mark Robinson's made up story about talking to Ken Hinkley? Why did I even give myself the opportunity to read his made up story?

I still don't have Aaron Hall. I assume I'd be greater than 400 points, and $200K (counting price rises/drops) better off had I started with Aaron Hall. If anyone wants to rub salt into my wounds, do the math. I can't stomach doing it myself.

Chad Wingard, eat. a. dick.

You will not be traded out of my team unless you get a long term injury, instead, you'll be subjected to internet tirades until you prove yourself a worthy pick.

 

[Captain Harley]

Sam Jacobs and Tom McDonald are vying for my worst pick- it's somewhat of a blue ribbon event.

 

[Mitchell54]

Birchall... You absolute spud. Is 55 all you can do?!? only guy that I have and my opponent doesn't thats scored below 100.

He's not gonna get traded out

1. I'll be too busy trading out rookies etc.
2. Patience my young padawan.
3. Hawthorn are about to enter a relatively easy patch

But seriously. Turn It Up Birchall!!

 

[DaveyBoy123]

2 weeks ago during the "Let's get rid of Rocky" trade session, I was one of those that went against the flow by bringing in R.Gray over Parker.

I've never had any Gray in any of my teams ever. I get the feeling of "I've got a bad feeling about this" with R.Gray and S.Gray. Not sure why? mmm...

Don't have any of those players in my team although i did have B.Crouch and Barlow. Traded them out now. Birchall can't be far from that list.
Whats the deal with 'B'? Birchall, Brad, Barlow, Bartel have all spudded it up. B.Crouch a bit harsh because of injury but he didn't score too well.

Barlow very stiff not to make the starting 18.

 

[adammania9]

Going to BigFooty to assist myself in picking a team.

Whoever told me Robinson averaged 120+ in games without Beams last year. **** you.
**** you Michael Barlow.
**** you Josh Gibson. (Scored 59 after brining him in for Boyd - 100+, lesson learnt)
**** you Dayne Zorko for being suspended in round one and forcing me not to pick you and missing out on a 143.
**** Jade Gresham and Josh Dunkley for falling out of their sides,
And **** Devon Smith. What was I thinking?
