Discussion 2024 Round 8: Teams & In Game Discussion

His forward craft is so poor. Stands way to far away from where the contest is going to be, doesn't really lead, and almost always jumps at the wrong time. More than anything he is just out of form.

Felt he was dropping easy marks last week as well, didn’t look right.

Is Cooper Simpson playing?

So devo’d that he is playing ahead of Fyfe, he has choked up with the emotion of of it! 🤣
Not looking worthy SC score wise, as a down grade target so far today!

Simpson's 1st touch is an OOTF

 

[Tamuhawk]

Luke Ryan is an SC cheat code. 🥲

 

[Under The Dome]

Ridiculous to have a defender ton up in a half

Luke Ryan is an SC cheat code. 🥲

He pretty much is, I'm just glad I had it installed early in the season

Anyone not have Ryan?

Started Sheezel, Daicos and Young instead of Ryan and traded into Stewart over Ryan in RD4 as a Windhager replacement. Grabbed N Martin in RD5 so only one spot left with Graham/Clohesy occupying it and ideally the last spot to upgrade. Largely depends on the upgrades I make in between and the cash gen, as to whether I pay up for Ryan chasing the lost points.

Ryan has Saints in two rounds... Need him in that round at the latest

Probably get his BE at this point.

I thought bringing Green in this week couldn't be topped for providing frustration. Well Luke Ryan, you have proved me wrong. Not owning him is absolutely destroying me this week. His ratio is beyond ridiculous for how little contested ball he has, but there is no denying his game is perfectly suited to SC. Of course the player I kept instead of trading in Ryan (Young), clearly doesn't know how to run more than 3 min before needing a 10 min rest.

Thought my season was turning the last couple of weeks. Was happy that this week was the right week to bring Green in, was happy to hold Fyfe a bit longer after his spike game, was happy to trade Steele based on the information that was available and based on his previous history with injuries - was just happy in general.

But it's a game and means very little when you compare it to today we having to put our family dog down who's been with us for over 12 years - that's sad.

My sincere condolences NT, hope you get another puppy soon, having that floppy eared little soul stumbling their way around your house can really help to ease the pain of the loss of your beloved family member.

 

[Amazing Bombers]

Well done to anyone who kept Sharp, got rid of him as a part of a boost to bring in Green. I can't complain too much though given some of the luck suffered by other coaches this round with Yeo, Fyfe and Williams. Being a Ryan owner is making up for some of my other low scorers as well.

Young's still scoring pretty well though, considering.

Has a defender ever double tonned?

 

[Zimmer]

Baker has become a butcher.
