Discussion 2023 Round 3: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Santoz]

So, on top of checking every match for late outs, adjusting VC and E loopholes all weekend, I now have to check each of my donuts to see if they are listed as an emergency, check which emergencies played state league matches and wait for sub announcements pre game... The amount of effort required to play this simple fantasy game is becoming ridiculous.

If SC aren't going to bring back Friday night lockouts, then the least they can do is bring in a sub rule, if your on field player is named the sub, then you get the emergency score instead.

Nope.

You want to do well, you need to be plugged in all weekend.

 

[Maccas marvels]

Are people holding Ridley

Yes…only because they are playing the saints whom give up points….

was considering bringing in Brennan Cox instead whom saves 60k and higher ceiling…
but that might have to wait…

 

[Leroy]

Where does it say Sexton is the sub?

Chesser named so will start with Constable on the ground and if he's the sub, I'll just have to take my chances with a full game from Chesser. Kicking myself for not sticking Wilmot on the ground. Was out on the turps yesterday evening so missed the drop of teams before the WB v Bris game started. Good move to those who played Wilmot.

Yeah I missed this one as well

Wilmot's 69 on the bench with the E needing an out to get him on field, of which Constable may or may not be.

Got Ginbey in the mids so will swap them for now. If Constable is sub he goes to the mid bench, if not he takes Wilmot's score in the backline.

Fingers crossed 🤞

Nope.

He's right though it is a bit ridiculous. Friday night lockouts, no captain loophole and hope for the best I reckon.

I tend to agree. Subs are bad enough for cash generation, but there is a points impact as well. We obviously don’t have to check all these things, but it does make it very time intensive if you don’t want to concede that edge.

So torn
Take the Neale vc 117 or go Clarry
Thinking safety but 17k overall not sure

Also
Gulden vs d Cameron in this week

D Cameron looks great
Ticks a lot of boxes *1 ruck so easier points
Good ceiling and month of No cox

Gulden
Looks a must have
Barely got out of first gear and going 110

Think both are must haves and I’ll get the other down the line

What would you guys do for both? Opinions appreciated

Take the 117 from Neale….

On Gulden vs Cameron- depends on team needs, Cameron gives greater team flexibility with ruck and fwd needs…

Cameron in my team and definately a POD for what it’s worth…

 

[THCLT]

Amazing recuperate powers from Stewart, going from a month out to returning after just the one week layoff.

Hopefully it's not all smoke and mirrors by Scott so we get a read on Bowes role and performance with Stewart in the side.

 

[Maccas marvels]

Hopefully it's a real debut and not a Connor Downie debut.

Already said he will be sub

 

[I am Cursed :(]

What do we think Grundy scores this week?

 

[Rowsus]

I'm going to risk Constable on field, to get Baker's 95.
Amazingly, my only players not locked after Saturday night are Ginbey, Chandler and Constable, so I just have to risk it, and cross my fingers and toes!

It will be interesting to see. Duncan is probably the only one that could change positions from the role he has this week.

Why would people be already thinking of trading Ridley? Scored 107 in round one, so it’s hardly been a disaster so far.

 

[Maccas marvels]

Have missed those points now. Well done to those who started him.

I will risk his early season scoring against his injury history…
could end up in front if he gets another concussion and misses multiple games….

 

[Drew]

Kept Chesser, hope he knocks out a good one.

Same, his breakeven is 23, so it’s completely possible he could lose money. From being priced at $123k 😂🥶

 

[GrainFedBeef]

Bruhn named in the C..........

 

[Lost In The Sky]

What a shame Ziebell & Sheezel don't have their DEF eligibility yet... would have been handy in dealing with Constable

 

[Maccas marvels]

Constable named an emergency too, so not a useful donut at this point in time. Could be the sub FYI. Gold Coast playing Sunday too won't help your cause.

Ouch, means may not get Wilmots score… do we just move Cowan on field and get his score to avert the potential of a sub score of 10-20 from Constable if he comes on?

 

[scarfaceclaw]

I just swapped my chesser trade to constable. Hopefully chesser beats his breakeven!

 

[Drew]

I have the option to loop Cowan & Chesser using him. 🤣

Wish me luck.

Geez if you pull that one off you deserve the points mate!

To be honest, playing that morning, will be of zero help. Teams name guys in the VFL and pull them all the time

The sometimes will not name the sub in the VFL team. annoying it is a home game.
