Discussion 2024 Round 4: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Maccas marvels]

I couldn't split Heeney and Grundy for Capt, so took the cowards way out and Captained Bont. 😊

Good idea though…either way you would be cursing if you chose the wrong option of the two

 

[Feerits Elf]

Why would you trade someone out just to take another score? particularly if it isn’t to get a captaincy score?

Because the bloke I traded out instead of Fyfe isn't playing this week

 

[HimothyTaranto]

Can there please, just be one game, that Heeney doesn't go 150 in.

 

[Miller is a Steele]

Darn. Had to bench one of McKercher, Roberts, Sanders and Reid. Reluctantly benched Reid. At least it will punish those who traded him.

 

[Vicwood]

Jordan.....won't even make his BE.

 

[doc ron]

Jordan and Grundy gone for me next week.

 

[Herbie66]

Hasn't gone 150 all season (yet)

 

[Maccas marvels]

Roberts a nice goal! We needed that with most having him on field!

 

[Blue Bloods]

Trades this week

Billing to Darcy
Wines to Flanders
Jordon to Martin.

Then thought I would save the boost and do Jordon to Martin next week should make the same cash. Going to cost me 80-90 points and won’t be able to do that trade next week because of the money difference now. And Grundy sucking as VC sometimes just better turning the game off.

Very interesting, it's mind boggling to me how they can manage to score each player on the fly in almost real time with so many scoring and penalty variations. I've always wondered how many people are sitting in the room watching each game.

Well I am not 100% sure about the exact methodology he applied but as I understand it, he accessed the data that is used to create heat maps (which also includes a clock and where a player is on the ground) which in turn is derived from the locators all players wear. Then he watched the game and matched the act that took place at a specific time against the SC score that was allocated to it. That is how he worked out a specific act in defence is usually worth more than the same act in the midfield.

On the day I think CD have several people scoring. One calls the game like a race caller and the others load the data. Then they review each quarter break.

That is my understanding of it.

I put my hand up, I traded Reid….but turned him into Green so sits comfortably for now…

 

[Vicwood]

Ried on field is nice. Small wins...

 

[HimothyTaranto]

Hasn't gone 150 all season (yet)

🤓👆

 

[Herbie66]

Round 5 & 12 Bye wonder what a Grundy/Heeney trade out package could buy 🤔

Best 18 for Round 5 & 6.

see what Marshall is projected to be going into Round 7

wait and see what Darcy (Fremantle) looks like on return

 

[MarkM]

Question for those in the know. Is it not a contested possession if you break a tackle before disposing of the ball? Reid done it several times, and not one has been counted as contested. Seems ridiculous if this is the case.

Contested / uncontested possession is all about how you got the ball. A contested possession is one where you "won" the ball, by either intercepting it from the other team or by getting it when it is in dispute (i.e. loose ball get, marking contest).

 

[Old Big 'Ead]

36 point difference between fantasy and CD. Has he been that influential?

47 point difference now! 5 clangers... Hayden Young would be spewing

 

[Under The Dome]

Going Grundy over Heeney as VC 😳
Time to perm VC/C Heeney.

 

[Maccas marvels]

How many posters in this game? I count 6
wonder what the record is ….

 

[Connoisseur]

Fell a few grand short of Windhager and Jordon to Flanders and Yeo.

Jordon down to Comben next round to bank some cash.

 

[Juzzo]

Reid on the bench. His likely ton has me trading out Fyfe to get his score

Also frees up the funds for a straight swap of Grundy to English next week

Who's your donut?
