Round 1 Discussion (Dedicated to Jiska)

[Bollox]

Not in a good mood. Started on fire but went fishing yesterday, caught phukall, got home and immediately stuck the C on Oliver, then watched my whole round implode.
Stay away.

Got all my hopes on Captain Fyfe today .....oh & punchable

Cripps 126 ....meh
Macrae 132....meh

Fyfe ....going for a serious Captains score

Who was ur vc?

 

[go you pups]

Nah too unfair. I’m playing you H2H and it’s thunderstorms in Cairns for my player while yours plays under a roof. How’s the effectiveness and disposal efficiency of my player in the mud and rain going to be compared to your prima donna. If everyone was under a roof in the same conditions, maybe, but they’re not.

Tough t***ies imo

AFLF/RDT etc copes fine with this precedent/scenario you've presented, no reason why SC can't too

I'd imagine a scrappy wet day would produce more pressure acts/tackle numbers/contested ball etc anyway, so don't think it'd be too much of a problem. Maybe only if you've loaded your side with marking forward types.

I'm more so thinking of two average sides with poor skills going at it here. Not a high quality shootout where on average a goal is worth only half the value of a low scoring slugfest. Imo a goal is a goal and should be the same score.

I'd be one of them, cept i also have gawn, piggy etc. Reckon I'll scrape to 2050ish

I've gone Gawnstein ruck duo. I'll be pretty happy with 2050-2100 with Balta and screwshaw on field with C Gawn.

As critical as I am sometimes of the apparent lack of transparency regarding the SC scoring system, I agree with Jiska on this one. The example you refer to with AFLF and RDT is completely different. You get 3 points for a kick regardless of whether or not it hits a target or goes out on the full.

Having said that, though, We see examples every week that leave us scratching our heads as to how they come up with the scores they do. Just gives us something else to whinge about.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Stevens had to retire last year so yeah won't be too hard

So who's this guy ????

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Who was ur vc?

Bloody Gawn

 

[markm106]

Should have taken Cripps vc. Went Danger. 1569. Collins Cogs Whitfield Fyfe to go. Not the best start.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Except, I've been around these here parts year on year cowboy.

*In b4 I score a sub 1,800 next week*

It's true but what the heck!

 

[pincrusher]

So who's this guy ????

Jack Steven. Note without the S. Not Koby Stevens.

 

[vast]

Best part about the billings owners is they are gonna think they chose wisely after he beats up on a shit team rnd 1. Exactly what he did last year with a 130 against brissy, F1 nailed I told myself......

 

[nameless]

Hoping my biggest POD JSteele can repay the faith today.

Big year from him!

 

[vast]

Cmon Collins 80+ campaigner

 

[RobZombie]

i did the same but i'm ok with it...for now.
Crouch and Libba both looked good.

giving the C to Gawn is my only major regret so far.

Yeah most of this is just "round 1 happens". Giving Oliver the C ... heck.

 

[gutsroy]

Keen to see 2MP,, Ainsworth,Martin and co, and Steele for the Saimts.Scared to watch in terms of Billings.

 

[pincrusher]

Might have been mentioned already, but can't be bothered reading back through the pages from last nights game. Anyone notice McInerney's DT/ SC ratio? Must have had a LOT of HOTA.

Isn't it the middle of the night in your part of the world? Too excited to miss seeing Billings play??

 

[vast]

[Malotru]

Wilkie and Collins both with intercept marks in the first minute.
