Discussion 2024 Round 8: Teams & In Game Discussion

[bluesbrothers]

I'm a Ryan owner but these kick out points are ridiculous. +4 for every short kick to the pocket.

SC is supposed to try and represent the most important/best player on the ground. Unfortunately with the kick-in rule, it skews this, if the team you are against kicks at goal poorly. Not just Ryan that benefits from this. Prob needs to be changed a little, as the fact a player can score 100 from just kick-ins just doesn't seem right.

Dammit Ryan! You were supposed to stay a bit quiet until I brought you in next week!!

100%. Also believe HTA needs a look. Makes no sense when you see two ruckman at the top of each team list. How can two HTA score more than a goal. But CD need to tell us if they tinker with the scoring.

Definitely agree with the comments around kick ins, I think CD mentioned something in an interview this week about creating a new stat category for them which SC could then choose to score different if they wish.
Disagree about HTA but what I think is probably more the issue hit outs to disadvantage and negative points for those.

Ryan has been best on ground though?

 

[Shannon]

Ryan 170

200 possible

 

[Monya Meow Meow]

Ryan has smashed his B/E

Clean win out of the centre twice could lead to an easy mark for a forward and two goals. If a forward takes a mark and goals, is that 10 points if uncontested and 12 points if contested?

A ruck could be getting smashed by his opponent ruckman but still score over a 100 because of HTA, to me that is wrong when looking at who influenced the most in winning a game of football but just my opinion.

Ryan captain in keeper league, probably the only shining light this round

 

[bluesbrothers]

I seriously have to question whether Yze deserves to be a senior coach with the way they have approached Luke Ryan today. How you don't man him up is beyond incomprehensible.

But a HTA is a hit out that leads directly to a clearance, so unlikely he gets to 100 if he’s getting smashed by the other ruckman? Yes you can have a scenario where both are getting HTA.. but if a player gets to 100 primarily from HTA then he isn’t getting smashed by his opponent.

Jackson not really taking advantage of the lack of Darcy at the moment. Was hoping he’d find his way to 90+ but had a couple of stints on the bench to keep him from going hard.

 

[GrainFedBeef]

48% of coaches with Fyfe, 93% on the field.

Most obvious solution would involve Fyfe to Garcia or swapping out Rogers, Fyfe to mids and Garcia in.

Will be interesting to see the short term impact. Fyfe on 8 points, on the bench, 7mins to go.

 

[Slammer]

Sharp to get his BE

 

[Shannon]

195 now Luke Ryan, can he get 200? 🤞

 

[Zim^zuM]

Who to field at D8 out of Massimo, clohesy and graham

 

[Maccas marvels]

Luke Ryan only in 30.9% of top 1% of teams… this is a great leveller this week.

 

[bluesbrothers]

Has anyone actually taught Jackson when to jump for the ball. Ruck, mark contest, makes no difference. He always seems to jump 3 sec before he needs to.
