Supercoach DRAFT - Discussion thread

[danger_to_walker]

Drafting tomorrow, have pick 5 in a 14 team league. I'm assuming Goldy, Fyfe, GAJ and Danger to be off the board by my pick. If one of Fyfe/GAJ/Goldy slips through I'll take them, otherwise planning on taking Heater. Rocky tempting me though. Hoping Dusty is available for my second, then will work on mids.

Last year I took Gray and Goldy with my first 2 picks (picked last in an 8 man league) and got a bit lucky with Rance, set me up perfectly. So many mids that go 105+.

Just finished a 6-team draft. Very happy with the midfield, satisfied with the backline, worried about the forward line.

B: K Simpson, S Docherty, M Williams, D Rampe, B Smith
M: S Pendlebury, D Hannebery, C Ward, J Selwood, M Bontempelli, T Rockliff, P Cripps
R: N Naitanui
F: S Higgins, J Westhoff, M Robinson, B Harvey, J Billings

INT: D Beams, T Liberatore, B Grundy, T Lynch (GC)

First round went: Goldstein - Dangerfield - Fyfe - Ablett - Pendlebury - Mundy

Hi I'm playing draft for the first time. Hoping some one can help with a question. We have four on the bench as emergencies what happens if you have 2 or 3 outs in your side. Do you get the three lowest scores from your bench or do you only get the lowest score and 2 donuts.

Auto-sub only works for 1 player. If you have 3 donuts in your starting team, the lowest score on your bench will sub in and you will still have 2 donuts

The remaining players on your Floating Bench don't score, unless your league has activated the "Auto Emergency" option - in which case you'll get the lowest scoring emergency's score above 0 to replace any player on your starting line-up who doesn't play (irrespective of position).

So it's a good idea to keep an eye on things and not rely on auto-emergency.

Surprised Mundy went so high, Danger is a far better option
Trade one of those mids for a gun fwd asap.
I would have played with bigger squads if you only have 6 players in the league. Far too many guns left in free agency.

 

[anditsadraw69]

any tips for a 14 man league?

 

[Jas_epi421]

I have the #1 pick in a 8 team draft any advice? Trade or Keep etc

Forward line looks ok to me. Midfield is a winner.

Stef @ Pick 2 ahead of GAJ, Fyfe, Danger, Pendles

 

[danger_to_walker]

what was your 1st pick number

Yeah pick 5. Shaw and Deledio were my first 2 picks. Rucks flew off the board early, got Tippett quite late in the piece.

 

[danger_to_walker]

Stef @ Pick 2 ahead of GAJ, Fyfe, Danger, Pendles

Yeah, everyone seems to panic with rucks, Gawn in the first round as well.

 

[Krujan]

I picked up Stef with my 6th-7th rounder last year. Crazy because he was coming off a 112 season just like this year..was 600k+ from memory, but everyone avoided him because we all thought that he would be splitting ruck time with Leuey or playing forward. Worked out well for me though.

BTW you really need a Username change.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

BTW you really need a Username change.

Why? Clangerfield can still hit Tex up with a goal assist in round 8.

 

[Kadog]

When's our draft order going to be set?

It is

 

[Athomas]

Gawn was pick 1 in my league last night. I had Pick 7 and got Goldy lol.


Quite a competitive league too, I always lose in prelims. No idea how the above happened this year hahaha.

gawn at pick 1 inherently makes your league uncompetitive lol

It's a biased Dees supporter, but he made the GF last year. Those pesky Dees seem to dominate come finals time coincidentally.. lol
