Discussion 2024: AFL RDT Dream Team Discussion [SCS RDT Group code is 291973]

[NT.Thunder]

I don't think so provided you have ways of improving your team around them. I get why you want to be aggressive though given your good rank. we only have so many trades in this format and many (me included!) likely will burn through the majority in the next month....i expect doedee misses this week but probably plays the rest (just guessing) and walters could be fine after his bye.

I think the risk of not trading is that we are given another 4 in the future and those coaches who have been sensible don't get a much benefit at the pointy end.

I am trading Doedee really as I am being aggressive to try and catch up (currently 74th) but in many circumstances I would hold even if he missed. I am taking the go hard or go home approach which may cost me when trades are low

Yeah I've been really undecided in my trades this season, not getting much research time with the new job. Yr right though, saving trades and finding everyone gets another 4 in the future is frustrating.

Had Macrae as my VC last night

Will gladly bank his 114 as my captain's score this week.

I'm with you on Macrae although I may find myself curled up in the foetal position watching Gawn tonight who many will have VC, extra concerned as I don't have him

 

[Beast_Mode]

Needs to be asked Gawn's 97, do we take the VC and run?

I had that 97 locked away... right until 2 mins before the bounce last night, when I thought stuff it... So I went Neale.

Very happy with the 117, but I'd usually lock away that 97.

Yep had the same dilemma, banked the 97. Well done

 

[Bomber18]

Think I’ll be eliminated this round... no Doedee really hurt in the end.

I will need Grundy to beat Cogs + A.Corr + 6 pts. Theoretically possible but seems fairly unlikely.... Need Grundy to go nuts!

 

[Connoisseur]

I've always wanted to do this-

18/1491

Yet to play: B Grundy, A Brayshaw, J Kelly and I Rankine

What do you think par will be?

Usually about 100 more than whatever I score in this format!

Looking at projections across my leagues I think around 1700, but there are a few teams that will go really large.

Eliminated by 62 pts

1837 saw me survive another week of the eliminator. I would love to see this concept in Supercoach next year!

 

[Weedys Crop]

Ranked 3rd overall , now the random nail biting unknown of the byes has commenced .

 

[Shannon]

Still 2nd overall - amazing.

Leader has skipped away to a good lead now.

 

[Blaze]

Wow 2nd and third on here well.done guys.... I'm up to 42nd and dreaming of getting to top 10!

 

[NT.Thunder]

Just back from another weekend camping away - managed 1740, dropped to 39th overall so struggling to hold ground let a lone make any.
Won Eliminator, think I'll just throw caution to the wiond and trade my way as far as I can in the Eliminator. I'll bring in Macrae this week as a bit of a sideways as I'm bleeding points here.
nice work those still right up at the pointy end @Shannon @Weedys Crop - very excited for you guys.

How many trades does everyone have left?

 

[madmunza]

How many trades does everyone have left?

Lets just say not enough, gonna be tough to fill a full team this year

 

[Herbie66]

How many trades does everyone have left?

After today will have 6

and still require at least 4 upgrades

 

[mfchamp]

Ah right, I have 12 with 4 upgrades left, have 2 trades left this week after getting Vandermeer to Duncan so may as well go for it

 

[Beast_Mode]

9 with 4 upgrades left after this round. Likely going to have to roll with Serong as my M8 until the end
