Herald Sun SuperCoach 2008

Wallet better but Bowden back into the backline to get me some cheap points.

that fool ain't no midfielder!

I thought that was the Richmond plan this year?

Cause kicking it around the backline has brought them nothing but grief, they were going to try changing things up... namely by screwing Bowden out of cheap SC/DT points...

 

[Spartan]

u probably thought stanton and bowden were keepers all year? but u have traded them after 1 game.. probably shlda waited until after rnd 2 if anythink..
look for bowden to get 150 and stanton 100.. king 60 and houli 70

yeah but if that happens i will just trade them back next week.

duh.

Bad Round for me:
Goodes: 49
Johnstone: 46
Dyson: 33
Hall: 54
Gram: 56

 

[Mick_15]

Is it to ealry to even be contemplating trades like this?

B.Hall to J.Porpliza
T.Tuck or Bird or Palmer to J.Geary
N.Brown to L.Franklin

???

give it another week. prices wont go up until after the round 3 week. if u wait another week, hall, brown or one of the rookie mids could pull out a massive score and the players u want to change to might fail and score lowly. wait at least another week. if they have at least played 2 games u can work out what their break even will b and whether it will b worthwhile trading or not. imo the only trades that should be made r for long term injuries eg lucas or if u can upgrade a mid range player to a gun

yes

However, next round... maybe not...

If Geary gets named for a 3rd and is still caning it, while any of the following occurs
Tuck gets dropped.
Bird puts on a stunning 10 performance and gets dropped
Palmer still hasn't been named for the third game.

Then yes, it's definitely worth it.

Your other two, it's too early to tell.

 

[beautime]

Argh only got 1800

Questions

Lecras and Lucas in my forward are injured. I have gamble and rioli as emergencies will they both score in place?

Jesse Smith is injured, should I get rid of him. Because my emergencies are Sphanger and Proud.

Will Barlow play?

Thanks

lucas out: gun in
smith out: s d thompson in (looks the goods, very efficient, nice long kick)

barlow should play, he tore it up in the ressys game last week and got a bog. roos would b mad not 2 play him. think bird might give way for barlow

 

[Mick_15]

yes

cheers guys.

Walsey big fan of your program to by the way the price change bit is a big help.

Yeah being a saint supporter i would also love to get geary in, i had him in and changed to tuck at the last minute, kicking myself!
If he gets 70+ again i think i'll get him in.

If hall puts in another shocker i may also get ride of him for a cheaper option expected to rise eg: Porp

I think i'll definitely wait to see what N.Brown can produce for me.


Two trades to save money before the price changes is ok isn't it?
The way i see my team, i have 14 players on the feild i plan on keeping so i have a couple of trades up my sleeve

 

[Harmonic_9]

Who should i start out of Houli and Dyson??? They both should play but i wasn't to convinced with Dyson's 33 last week.

houli douli looked the goods. racked up 25 touches and scored a rising star nomination. he also dropped down back and played as a sweeper. dont rate dyson and a score of 33 is retrospective of my decision. keep houli on the ground and next week look at trading down to the best rookie thats played 2 games eg geary, jack etc

I'm getting rid of Dyson. He's a jabroni. When a midfielder scores 33 with his dominating it doesn't make me feel all warm and fuzzy.

You gotta remember, generally speaking, your upgrades cost 2 trades.

So 14 keepers = 8 non-keepers (16 trades) = 4 trades spare (for injury or for money savings.)

Having said that, there is certainly a point in which 2 trades before round 2 can be beneficial.

But yeah, it's all fun and games and team management from here on in.

If only there was a decent team management website that one could use.

that fool ain't no midfielder!

Have a look what he did against Carlton in rd. 1 last year...problem being now, also look at what he did against North last year!

Not convinced it's a "new role" at all...besides, he got enough of it this week, just an uncharacteristic 77% efficiency hurt.

(Having said all that, I think I'm going to out him...think I've decided on a solid master plan )

I know!! *cough*http://www.xalia.com.au/TooSerious.php*cough*

But then, I've used a lot of the team management sites out there, and I find that most of them leave a rash *cough*http://www.xalia.com.au/TooSerious.php*cough*

Some of them don't even buy you a drink first!!!

What is a poor supercoach like me meant to do?? *cough*http://www.xalia.com.au/TooSerious.php*cough*

lol, you idiot Walsey.

now make yourself useful and give me an opinion.

i've decided my team sucks and im using 4 trades early and then sitting back and letting the good times roll.

2 trades will be to get rookies in for non performing mid range players and 2 trades to upgrade to premiums.

do i want till next week and start this week?

waiting a week gives me more confidence but also leaves me vunerable to the price hikes.

There sure are a lot of first gamers playing this week.

Perhaps those guys might be wise to look at picking up *after* they have played 2 games...

Well I guess being ranked #12 currently you know what you're talking about.

ok i'm sold.

i'll wait.

 

[Jezzza]

With Masten, Proud, Hansen been named that's all of my squad of 30 getting a game in the 1st 2 rounds. Saves me having to trade Hartlett out this week at least don't think he will last to long though.

My biggest problem this week is who out of Gamble or Rioli on the field & who to have as an emergency. Similar in defense 2 of Proud, Hansen & Thompson on the field the other will be an emergency. Also tempted to put Masten on the field instead of Houli who got a lot of it last week but use of the ball let him down. Decisions decisions.....

 

[eugene_tomas]

wat do guys think of
cale morton?
masten?
clint bartram?
or any others suggestions? etc..

who knows why i got grigg but hes been omitted.. my only regret

 

[Stanton_Legend]

so i have lecras, should he be traded now? if so, who do i get - nathan thompson? dew?

 

[foxy_dal]

Hmm who to start out of

S.Thompson/Proud

Rioli/Tippet/Gamble

I have gone with Proud and Rioli with Gamble emergency.
