Where’s the 2020 thread. This year has sucked balls and this forum is dead. I’ve had two shower years in a row compounded by me making dumb starting selections and trading in guys out of form or injury prone.

Greene flower off
Hannebery flower off
Blakely flower off
Crisp you flowering spastic
Sicily oh boyttt where do I start
Jayden Short and Old man Henderson is in my team? What is going onnnnnnn

I need to get back to where I was 4/5 years running. Starts with my starting selections. Flower mid pricers honestly. Guns and rookies.
Good cheap premise this coming year. Would like to get some discussion going.

For me I’m thinking of starting

DEF: Lloyd, Docherty, ZWill
MID: Titch, Fyfe, Macrae, Dunkley, Cripps (only if he gets help) otherwise Yeo
RUC: Grundy, Gawn
FWD: Heeney, Dev Smith

Let’s get some chatter up hey, and don’t give me the its 6 months away bullshower, I’ve been planning for weeks lmao ! What are you all thinking ?

from round 9 onwards he has missed one game and averaged 102. Thats a fantastic pick up, was just a bad starter.

Depends if you're going for League or overall. Pretty decent for league but holding him while he kept missing games earlier in the year was a hit on points

Not that I have any runs on the board of late with SC that would warrant paying any attention to me
I've always felt that Guns & Rooks is the way to go, I can build decent starting teams in SC (have been number 1 in early rounds)
after that i'm quite adept at flowering them up better than most lately.  :-\

New plan for 2020, build a starting team then tag the shower out of blokes like RD, Holz and the likes of Wato
(hoping he can get back to his lofty heights of the past)
I'm not going to win jack shower but i'm fed up with finishing in or around the 4k mark occasionally much worse.  :P

spot on grazz,  simple game   1. GnR    2. No high priced rookies  3. No Sideways trades,   4. Limit trades so you have min 4+ at finals.  5. Must use Captain loophole,   6.  Cannot afford to have number 4 or lower ruck, possibly even no 3 ruck.  costs you 400+ points each season.

good examples nz,  the question is would your season have been destroyed by not having walsh.   when it comes to cash generation better value and less risk with a low priced rookie who is playing.    rookies is all about who is getting a game.    I missed out on the three richmond rookies in first half of the season and it cost me big time and left me scrambling for good value upgrades rather than best prem option.

I reckon you would have a huge disadvantage without walsh. Rules are nice and they work most the time but there are guys outside of these rules and there where very good signs walsh was an exception to the rule.


trade hard trade early is still my number 1 rule for a good ranking. I started the season poorly but made agressive moves and picked up cheap cover once you get a lead over most of the comp you just need to hold on. Much harder making up ground on complete teams with a better complete teams then it is to get a lead with a complete team over incomplete teams.

Post by: Goosey on August 24, 2019, 02:48:19 PM
I really dislike picking a full GNR team, because too many poor scoring rookies set you back early. I like to find value low/mid-pricers that help eliminate the inevitable 30-40 point scores from basement priced rookies.

This year I started the likes of B.Smith, Z.Williams, J.Ridley, B.Crouch, Libba, Walsh, Cousins, Worpel, D.Moore, L.McCarthy.

R1 I was at 10,980, R2 1,320 and by R11 I was down to 416. Currently at 866, this has been by far my best season ever. Definitely need a bit of luck with injuries, but I was also more conservative with my trades early. I usually come out of the byes with not many trades left but this year not trading so hard early kept me in good stead.

Out of those listed above, I still have Smith, Crouch and Worpel (bad move trading Williams when he got injured!).

One thing to note is that I did not manage to "complete" my team, still having Duursma at M8 (and Answerth in DEF for effective DPP) and looping other bench players. I think racing to complete your team is maybe a bit overrated?

Starting with Grundy and Gawn, not paying top dollar for the high end mids, and fielding as few basement rookies as possible has been a good formula this year.

I will definitely be trying to deploy the same strategy next year.

In addition to the above I'll add that some mid pricers can be worth their weight in gold.
Of the teams that finish top 1k this year I bet a fair proportion had BSmith and BCrouch.
I had neither and was rightfully peeved off by how well they went over the duration. Both of them have played every game as well.

had both nz,  kept crouch all season and traded smith rd14 for stewart.  smith avg'd 93.6 for rest of the season.   in effect a wasted trade.    could have done with trade to upgrade logue later on.   my trading was poor this season.

I screwed myself not trading hard early this year. Last year, I did really well but the biggest mistake was Billings. I held him for too long but, when I did trade him, he came good (and oh so good). This year, I told myself I wouldn't make the mistake of trading right before someone came good again... What I should have done is learnt from the first mistake and traded straight away. I held Greene and Brayshaw through all the crap, finally trading Greene just before he started dominating and Brayshaw before his last three games (93 avg over last three but traded to Bont for 110 so at least ended ahead on that one).

Basically, I learnt nothing... but I vow to not make the same mistake a third time!

The guys over at SC Talk have already put together a handy guide to 2020 projected prices.  ;D

https://supercoachtalk.com/supercoach-2020-estimated-prices/

Having a look through, my 2020 side looks like this at the moment.

DEF: J. Lloyd, Z. Williams, S. Docherty, D. Houston, rookie, rookie (rookie, rookie)

The guys over at SC Talk have already put together a handy guide to 2020 projected prices.  ;D

https://supercoachtalk.com/supercoach-2020-estimated-prices/

Having a look through, my 2020 side looks like this at the moment.

DEF: J. Lloyd, Z. Williams, S. Docherty, D. Houston, rookie, rookie (rookie, rookie)
MID: J. Macrae, L. Neale, T. Mitchell, D. Martin, C. Ward, rookie, rookie, rookie (H. Bennell, rookie, rookie)
RUC: B. Grundy, M. Gawn (D. Cameron)
FWD: T. Kelly, C. Daniel, D. Smith, Q. Narkle, I. Rankine, C. Cockatoo (rookie, rookie)

Dusty should be forward eligible just fyi

And Caleb definitely isn't fwd anymore - will be def

Post by: SilverLion on August 30, 2019, 02:13:32 PM
DEF: Lloyd, Docherty
MID: Macrae, Mitchell, Neale, Fyfe, Ward
RUC: Grawndy
FWD: Danger, Martin (pending fwd status)

Only reason I wouldn't be starting any of these guys is if they're injured (Or if Danger/Martin don't get fwd).

Not set on starting Lloyd yet

I started him this year which was great, but after the bye he went 98.5 so I'm not sure I will start him priced at 108

May look at him as an upgrade target next year

Def: Laird/Zwilliams, Ryan, Docherty, doedee,             options: H Clark
Mid: Neale Macrae Oliver Fyfe/Taranto Mitchell rook rook
Ruc: Grundy, Gawn,  hopefully Fort.
Fwd:, Heeney, dev smith,  Dangerfield ??

Whitfield Hurn LLoyd too expensive to start,  upgrade targets along with T Stewart,
My mid options for consistency over Cripps/Bont.   Dunkley a definite option for M3/4
Just too hard to not have both Grundy and Gawn.    100K and 300 points difference between R Marshall and Grundy/Gawn over the year so is a Unique option for consideration if chasing cash.
Smith for value, heeney for consistency and then look at what m/f options are available.


Time to start researching National Draft and rookies for next year

Just fyi guys, Whitfield will almost certainly be M/F instead of D next year. Probably too expensive to start but likely going to end up one of the top forwards along with Danger.

Things obviously change but I can't imagine Whitfield, Danger, and Martin won't be 3 of the top 6 forwards by year's end.

Shocking year again, but always enjoy and never give up.

DEF  Z Williams, Docherty, Sydney Stack

MID  Dangerfield,  Neale,  Titchell ( if he comes up ),  P Cripps,  and Marlion Pickett as a rookie

Ruck Gawn,  Grundy if he stays at Collingwood but not if he transfers and has to learn a new game plan

FOR  Dusty, Whitfield, and perhaps Dunkley if he retains M/F

This year well and truly stuffed up by going POD in defence with H Andrews, H Hartlett and Connor Blakely and getting stuck with them

???

Anyone know what Naish will be priced at? If Ellis goes to the Suns, he's a real chance for that hybrid wing/half back flank position and should score well in it. Hoping still rookie priced...

His avg. is 72.5 from 2 games so it would be based on that with a 30% discount because of only 2 games ?

Yep

13-14 prems plus a few mid pricers as well? No chance

trade hard trade early is still my number 1 rule for a good ranking. I started the season poorly but made agressive moves and picked up cheap cover once you get a lead over most of the comp you just need to hold on. Much harder making up ground on complete teams with a better complete teams then it is to get a lead with a complete team over incomplete teams.

I screwed myself not trading hard early this year. Last year, I did really well but the biggest mistake was Billings. I held him for too long but, when I did trade him, he came good (and oh so good). This year, I told myself I wouldn't make the mistake of trading right before someone came good again... What I should have done is learnt from the first mistake and traded straight away. I held Greene and Brayshaw through all the crap, finally trading Greene just before he started dominating and Brayshaw before his last three games (93 avg over last three but traded to Bont for 110 so at least ended ahead on that one).

Basically, I learnt nothing... but I vow to not make the same mistake a third time!

Dunno man, I traded out Mundy and Dunkley after rd 2
Mundy smashed it for the next 7 rounds, Dunkley took a while until he was put back into the guts and then went boonta

Because the above happened Im probably going to hold a bit more

For the price of Grundy alone you can have NicNat AND Jacobs.

Surely they can average 90 each, while Grundy and Gawn go 120 each. That 700K could net you more than 60 points elsewhere.

I like the theory meow,  in practice I have found it is just too hard to use the extra cash well and take the losses of second rate ruck scores.
