Three quick points for you Chels:
- Given that initial SC prices are set based on last year's average, what we should generally all be looking for is players who can outperform last year's average. Most teams that were poor in 2014 will likely remain so - so if there's a significant disadvantage to playing in a weak team, it should be priced in to a large degree. If you decide that a player's team is important, perhaps focus on the teams you think will lift their ladder position, rather than those you think will simply end up in a high position. Similarly in relation to spread - perhaps the question should be whether/how the spread changes.
- The draw is an obvious issue to consider - especially as this changes from year to year, and therefore is less likely to be priced in.
- See the link below. For me, the lesson is that if you are looking for someone to score 120+ - noting that you shouldn't expect that from more than about two or three players - you should very likely pick Ablett, and then focus on your expected top four teams. I don't know that this would necessarily hold with a lower cutoff, say 110, but for M1, M2, etc, the top ranked teams should be your second port of call after Ablett.

I found it difficult as well. I think you go to the team page and then click on the SC GOLD option on the top right. I think that then prompts you to sign up.
As I said, it took me a wile to figure it out and now I'm not exactly sure how I did it, so I hope I have pointed you in the right direction
If that doesn't work, try the player research page and there might be a link there.

I had a dream overnight that Joel Selwood scored 55 and 52 in the first two matches of the season. I was whinging to somebody about picking him and checked his score for the third match of the season (surely I should have traded him out) and he was the 3rd ranked player in the 3rd quarter.
a) This is disturbing and a clear indication I think about Supercoach too much.
b) I don't believe Selwood scoring so poorly twice in a row is possible, although I have had other sporting related dreams become true. I once had a dream that I was in the mounting yard discussing my surprise at a long shot winning the Emirates Stakes, although no horses name was mentioned. It was in 2007 and Tears I Cry won at $61 (I backed another long shot in reality so it was quite irritating).

I had a nightmare once that I was at 1993 Grand Final and Carlton would pick Mark Athorn and Tim Powell in the team, leave Kouta and Peter Dean out and then start Athorn on Michael Long at opening bounce. I tried to pinch myself I was still asleep but sadly I was awake and the nightmare was happening.

Sometimes your subconscious brain can assemble various bits of information from different sources and present it in a logical format as a dream. It can also manifest as a hunch or educated guess. These can sometimes be quite accurate and so I think it is always worthwhile to think about whether there is any sound reasoning or facts behind the dream or hunch.
For this reason I thought I would have a quick look at SC Gold to see if it was projecting low scores for Selwood in the first few rounds. As it turns out, the projections look quite good so I guess this wasn't the source. It did get me to thinking however about the accuracy of the SC Gold weekly projections and whether they are any good or not. I seem to remember Rowsus a while ago making some comment about them not being very good but I can't remember exactly what he said. I would be interested to know whether anyone uses the SC Gold weekly projections and whether they have found them to be reliable or not. If you don't use SC Gold, then what do you use?
I may also copy this post to the Questions for Rowsus thread as I'm sure he will have some thoughts on this matter.

Any body else see this in the Herald Sun? Some guy has produced a championship ring for himself for winning his SuperCoach league.

Been hard to miss him, he has been trying to flog his $99 ring in a number of SC places.
I won't be buying it based on what I consider deceptive advertising:
- Less than a day of creating the website he posted on BF that "He saw an advert for the ring on facebook and bought it immediately". I later simply asked him on BF if he was the owner of the website and despite logging in he has not bothered to answer.
- He created an account on here, started a new thread about how he had bought the ring and just had to show us.... Never bothered to actually engage us on SC issues. Thread was deleted.
- Created a twitter account and spammed over 100 footy players with the same identical tweet.
- The website has no contact details. No phone number. No address. No names. Not even an email address. I only found out his name by doing a Whois search of the web address.
As far as I am concerned if that is the way he wishes to conduct business then there is no way I can trust the product.
Each to their own, but caveat emptor!

Some hilarious insights are told about how they make changes and why.

Obviously these scores aren't considered when setting prices so any huge difference in average is worth some consideration when selecting a player. Ziebell and Wingard are the only two players that have altered my views somewhat by their finals scores.
I wish taggers could be picked as defenders (usually more defensive than rebounding defenders). Really liked Langford's finals series and definitely would have picked him in a def spot but not interested in him as a mid.
