Discussion 2024 Round 4: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Miller is a Steele]

15/1571
Heeney 165
Yeo 130
Ryan 111
Serong 94
Grundy 93
Jackson 91
Williams 81
Roberts 80
Jordon 57

Libba and Sanders tonight.

Heeney bonkers again! Didn’t really feel like a 165 game but he did his best work in the key moments so that would’ve played a part. Yeo’s an absolute beast. Similar game to last week but he was rewarded SC wise this time around as his teammates were competent. Ryan was looking like posting a huge score but he only managed the 6 points from halfway through the third. Thought this was a good matchup for him so wanted more. Serong didn’t seem to get into the game. Was always expecting a down score against Carlton though. Grundy had moments but against Williams he needs to do better. Definitely getting close to being traded.

Jackson was also poor in what I thought was a good matchup. Not quite expensive enough to trade I think and no one really stands out as a big value premium option to me. Williams goes very hot and cold in games but an 81 is a good result. Roberts had a big last quarter to boost his score. Jordon was poor against WC today and is very likely to be traded this week alongside Billings.

17/1808
Libba 155
Sanders 82

Green, Flanders, Bonner, D’Ambrosio, and Cadman tomorrow.

Libba with an outstanding response to his early season scores. Averaging 115 and all is good now . Seriously considered trading and if I did I would be SO dirty right now. Felt like it was worth more than a 155 but clearances have no impact on SC scores so I understand. Was actually going to be my captain but I was never passing up Gawn’s 129. Fielded Sanders over Reid which only lost me 9 points so happy with that. Played well again (other than when he went the wrong way lol).

2005/18 C (Heeney)
Libba, Bont, Darcey & Dempsey taking care of business tonight 💪

On track for a massive score! Well done!

 

[Zoku Pops]

Young to Stewart absolutely flying.

- 70 points, 1 trade and 100k

 

[FlatTrackBully]

18/1843 Heeney

Probably about par so far, bit annoyed with Fyfe and Sharp on the bench and fielding McKercher and Jordan for them. Realistically it's really only 50 points lost as I was never going to field Sharp but was 50/50 on Fyfe and Jordon but chose based on matchup and role. At least I own and will have nice cash gen.

Whitfield, Massimo, Daicos and Steele to come.

 

[Bombers2win]

17/1800 Bont C Proj 2282 wouldn’t mind a 2300, Touk, Flanders, Steele Daicos and yet another new rookie defender this time it’s Brown to go.

[Herbie66]

16/1774 Sheezel

Flanders
Cadman
.
King , Steele
Daicos
D'Ambrosio

Wonder how much Clark will be after Round 23 , might be viable then to trade out.

Fingers crossed Sharp , Reid , Sanders , Williams , Roberts follow up with another decent score next game they play to fully maximise the cash growth.

My bench cash generation is already a massive problem , unlikely there will be any viable bubble boys next round in any case so might have to get creative and do a few sideways trades to generate some dollars

 

[Ricky Bobby]

On track for a massive score! Well done!

Im not there yet, but very happy with progress so far 👍

 

[randomcliche]

Young to Bramble. Bramble to Young!
I'm not too proud.

Young > Pink > Bramble
And Powell this round over Darcy.
See you at the bar.

 

[Ben's Beasts]

17/1755 (Gawn)

Bont excellent, Darcy great despite the low TOG, Khamis a bit of a letdown this round.

Touk, Flanders, Steele, NWM and Massimo to come.

 

[Leroy]

17/1776 English C

Gambled Butters VC on English and... lost 2 points, because that's how we Supercoach

 

[Ricky Bobby]

I've done this. Have a bonus trade now. Daicos to Whitfield if I feel like going on tilt lol

Clever play. Must admit, I needed to read this a few times to appreciate what you were saying…. Next level stuff 👍

 

[Connoisseur]

12/1214
Played: M Gawn, H Sheezel, C McKercher, Z Butters (VC), I Heeney, J Jordon, M Roberts, B Grundy, H Reid, H Young, N Fyfe, Z Williams
Yet to play:
Saturday: T Stewart, M Bontempelli, O Dempsey, R Sanders and S Darcy
Sunday: T Miller, T Green, J Steele (C),N Daicos and M D’Ambrosio

Updated Sexton replacement from T Brown to H Thomas to move Sanders onfield as was not confident in Brown or Draper. Considered Sharp as well and congrats to those that started him or traded in. Heeney unlucky again to miss out on captaincy duties and have decided not to bank Butters and take the gamble on Steele hopefully scoring close to 140+.

17/1678
Yet to play: T Miller, T Green, J Steele (C), N Daicos and M D’Ambrosio

Excellent debut by Darcy but a tad disappointing by Stewart. Considered Clark and Yeo but own both in a keeper league and felt Yeo was in the start or forget basket. Houston and Ryan both considered as well but was concerned about overpaying for any of them and Stewart was the one that was unlucky to miss out at the start in favour of Daicos. Should be fine in the long run. Stewart, Jordon and McKercher the only players under 80 and hopefully the final five can keep that going. Farewelling Jordon on the bye with Comben the early favourite to run a forward line of Heeney, Fyfe, Comben, Reid, Dempsey and Darcy. Keep cycling players through the non Heeney spots and leave it to last.

 

[Amazing Bombers]

17/1826(Gawn)
Flanders, Berry, Steele, Mass and Daicos to come.

Can't complain about the rookies at all aside from Mckercher being a bit quiet but a few letdowns in Stewart(77), Powell(74) and Dawson(99) to a lesser extent but being off the ground for a long period of time in the last quarter didn't help things.

Team starting to take shape just hoping some good rookies come up to help with upgrade season

 

[dicksilverman]

17/1714. Still have Green (C), Flanders, Naicos, Massimo and Brown from the Tigers to come. 2300 would be a dream after a tough start.

 

[wolfbunny]

Billings > Darcy ✅
Jordon > Dempsey ✅
Sharp on bench 😩
16 / 1707 Gawn and still to play
Naicos, Massimo, Green, Miller, Steele and Flanders to come
🤞🤞🤞

 

[tso]

16/1688 Gawn VC

Massimo, Naicos, Green, Rowell, Flanders, King tp

 

[Rowsus]

Rowsus: 17/1,558 - C to play - Green (C), Flanders, Briggs, Marshall, D'Ambrosio to come.
Very skilfully avoided: Heeney (165), Rozee (152), Bontempelli (141), to burn my VC on Serong. Green better go 130+!!!

Wife: 15/1,558 - Petracca - Sicily, D'Ambrosio, Daicos, Brown T, Marshall, Flanders, Cadman to come.

 

[Old Big 'Ead]

17/1711 Gawn

Pretty disappointing day really. Jordon's score, then Reid on the bench, and traded Fyfe out. Sub par scores from premiums in Ryan, Serong and Jackson.

Good last minute trade in Bramble to Mannagh to get Clark's score. Used boost for Bramble this round.

Rookies in Darcy, Dempsey, Roberts, and Sanders all stood up well.

Green, Flanders, Steele, Naicos, and Massimo to play
