Discussion 2021 Round 2: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Dazza]

The game this year with the new rules, just ping pongs from one end to the other, not much contested ball going on

 

[Gruffles]

Did he play much forward?

I mean technically they did win clearances 40-35.

To me he just looked knackered from trying to get around the ground.
Last year with the shorter quarters is when he needed the bulk muscle.
This year is the year he would be better off with last years frame.
The poor bugger has done things the opposite way to optimal.

 

[BomberSam]

Just confirming, if I traded Danger to Dusty before the round starts and trade Dusty to Danger now, do I get my trade back?

Nope, you would lose both trades to the best of my understanding. I wouldn't do that.

EDIT: Sounds like I'm wrong. I must be thinking of a different game. Sorry for any confusion.

 

[BomberArmy]

Will take the 365 from Grundy (VC) and Howe tonight.. 👍

 

[Game of Sloanes]

I just did it myself, it definitely works.

 

[Grundogging]

4/532 - Howe, Doc, Cripps and Grundy VC locked in.

Cripps is a real issue now - looks well off the pace and in need of some hard work on the training track. Luckily for him (perhaps unluckily for me) I have Rowell to shift as well, or he (Cripps) would be squarely on the chopping block next week.

Doch is a bit of a concern as well with two fairly vanilla outings in a row but I'll just have to ride that out as well.

 

[Peter56]

Supercoach has already given me Grundy's 270 C Score because I have the C on Dangerfield.

My bad, must be thinking of a different game.

 

[Game of Sloanes]

My bad, must be thinking of a different game.

All good, it's a pretty daunting thing to try for yourself without actually knowing the outcome, I made a second account just to make sure haha

 

[Rockydunlop]

Tonight’s game re-iterated the need to give your underperforming players another chance. Nice work Grundy. Now it’s your turn Dom Tyson.

Once this game started you lose the trade, as you can’t reverse it

Well player sir Can't be messing around with a man's Supercoach team!

 

[Wheedus]

Must have changed this year. Normally you can’t undo trades once the round starts

 

[7/11]

352/2 (VC Grundy)

Cripps score aside, I'm happy to put last week's captaincy woes behind me and be able to lock in Grundy's 135.

 

[Drew]

Grundy good, Howe good, Paddy Cripps 🤮

 

[Peter56]

Fully Scaled.
I hope

That's what I always thought. I'm going to stay out of it now to prevent any more confusion on my behalf

 

[Professor]

2/240 Walsh and Grundy.

Lucky I removed the other 6 Blues from my team before round 1. 😉

Yeah starting him over Dusty super costly. Everything in the preseason suggested that he was a bad pick. Unfortunately I eventually went with what I thought was the % play given his history.

Will probably hold, but Cripps > Taranto/Clark/Young will be tempting.

 

[Dazza]

Cripps Slipps out of my team next week
