Bumping this thread again.
First posted it 7 years ago, and I'm hoping to have the time to post some updated player tables as the season wears on.
Who knows? We might even get a huge sell push on a player like we did with Macrae at post #85.


One of the keys to this sort of thing working is to have honest, reasonable expectations for a player, before the season starts.
Part of that is setting a reasonable expected game count. Looking at 2024 and the players that averaged 100+, only 50% of them played every game. Another 25% missed 1 or 2 games, and the other 25% missed 3 or more games. It's no good just throwing most of the players in at 23/xxx. You usually need a good reason or history to say they will play all 23 games.
One of the good things about these tables, is that everyone starts with their own expectations. This can lead to one person having a player as "buy", and another person to have the same player as a potential "sell"!.

I'd be really happy for people to add in some (as many as you'd like to post!) expectations. When I make some tables i'll use the average of the expectations posted.
Brilliant write up Rowsus!!
I stopped playing for a few years in 2018 so missed reading this, and am so glad I have found it now. Requires discipline though, and while I feel I had a good understanding of these principles before reading this, it certainly throws it in your face and makes you realise some of the poor trading that I have committed over the last couple of years, and how it could be avoided. Ryan was probably a good example from last year. Unfortunately I did the exact opposite and traded him in at his bye, when, following these rules, people should have been selling him. Look forward to seeing the updates throughout the year.

I ask anyone interested in this thread to head on over to @Ironhawk 's interesting pre-season thread, and add in their opinions.

https://supercoachscores.com/threads/scs-predicted-averages-2025.5460/#post-1165471

You don't have to fill in every player if you don't want to. You can just do the relevant players, or the ones you are interested in.

The more people who take the time to do it, the better picture we will have, of what people are thinking!

Thanks in advance.

Max Holmes 21/79.8 (23/99.1)
Jordan Clark 23/82.5 (23/104.6)
Adam Cerra 19/108.3 (12/83.1)

Cerra has never had a full season. May just be stepping stone to R12 Bye. Holmes and Clark numbers support potential upside.
