Discussion 2024 Round 9: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Professor]

3/268 vc Walsh not taken yet.

 

[Old Big 'Ead]

2/230

Walsh and Gawn

 

[Miller is a Steele]

2/230
Walsh 119
Gawn VC 111

Walsh good. Would’ve liked a bit more given how well he went in that first quarter but his disposal can let him down a bit. Gawn not great with the VC.

Ryan, Serong, Heeney, Houston, Grundy, Jackson, and Roberts tomorrow night.

 

[Bombers2win]

2/198 bit of a damned if you do damned if you don’t feel to it to start the round with bringing Clarry in and VCing Gawn. Giving Bont the Cpt role now, surely he’s due for 180+ 🤞

 

[MagpiePotato]

@MagpiePotato look away now 🤣
Gawn scaled upto 111

Haha, i was actually expecting them to find his free against and take him down to 96. It is pure sorcery. As said before you simply cannot convince me some players don't get treated differently to others.... It's almost making me prefer the AFL fantasy format as it isn't ambiguous and no stats rely on someones opinion... and this is from someone who has finished top 500 the last 2 years in SC. (doing terrible this year though).

 

[Vicwood]

So looks like it is happening Gawn still only on 2 FA's, CD are just going to blatantly ignore the FA the umpire paid against Gawn for punching a hitout out of bounds for deliberate.

Let it go........

 

[Vicwood]

Well another week another failed VC. Noooooooooo. Its becomming frustrating.

Great game but the Magoo"s at it again.

Q1 Curnow goals but May gets a hand on it. 20 replays from 3 different angles all showing a clear touch, but somehow 80s video technolgy being used .showing more grain than China. Just pathetic.

Q4 Van Rooyan taclke in the Fwd pocket deemed as dangerious, well that will do me. Was a text book taclke ....perfect, But Nah the Magoo's strike again.

Change of name to BontPotato or GawnPotato should get you closer to top 500. 😉

 

[Connoisseur]

3/317
Played: M Gawn (VC), C Oliver (new recruit) and S Walsh
Yet to play:
Friday: T Stewart, Z Butters, L Jackson (new recruit), N Fyfe, H Young , B Grundy and I Heeney
Saturday: J Steele, D Wilson, N Martin, T Green, M Bontempelli (C), S Darcy, H Sheezel, S Clohesy and T Miller
Sunday: N Daicos, H Reid and I Rankine

Was all set to go Dunkley and a week early on J Hayes whilst waiting a week on Oliver. Then after Graham was omitted (as I was intending to play him onfield) decided to go a week early on Oliver and then noticed I could afford L Jackson and for some reason included him after giving little consideration so far. Maybe I should have focused on my NRL SC trades instead.

Solid start and can hopefully build on it during the double header tonight with seven players involved.

 

[NT.Thunder]

Trust me, it's not worth trying to predict or understand scaling when it comes to SC.

The SCS Rant! thread is your friend. Go there and be calmed.

 

[Zimmer]

3/268 vc Walsh not taken yet.

Awkward score.

 

[wolfbunny]

Popular score line for me of 2/230 Gawn and Walsh.
VC not used.
Windsor E with 73 sitting on the bench will probably be looped on later during the weekend.
The Sweet🍩in the first.
Jackson, Heeney, Ryan and maybe Roberts depending on final teams.

 

[Chumpion]

1/111 but most importantly no VC used on Gawn. Have the option of looping on Howes 54 but think I'll see how Clark goes tonight and then see from there. With Graham out I think I'll need to field one of Howes, Clark, Rogers, Jones or Garcia, so keen to see as many of them as an E as possible before locking it in as none of them are exactly safe!

 

[Monya Meow Meow]

Not sure how Gawn made it to 111 but I'll take it.
Too bad the VC was wasted on him, nervous times who to cap

 

[MagpiePotato]

I'd prefer Sexton over Thomas as a downgrade even on price difference

Thomas? Do you mean Jones? That is exactly what i am weighing up if so. I think in a perfect world (i.e playing the next 4 games in the 22 and not being sub) Sexton has a much higher ceiling potential than Jones.

Curnow kicked 2 goals last night.

Both in the 3rd quarter!

 

[donnybuang]

Along the lines of the Gawn insufficient attempt, why are players allowed to spoil a mark and punch it deliberately out of bounds, when they could spoil inbounds?

How much money is a 180k rookie really going to make, especially one as fringe as Sexton, much prefer Jones personally.
