Supercoach 2012.

Sanga pointing out that Parker will only end up playing 6 of the next 16 games and 2 of those possibly backing up from origin so may not be worth getting him back altogether till after origin.

Didn't play last year so I was wondering about this - is it better to be picking non Origin players because of this?

Still a few minor adjustments going through too - Widdop up to 58 which I'm happy with.

1143...should be top 1000 with that

Should be pretty high mate. I'm in 5 pretty high scoring leagues (including some of the SC Talk leagues) and only one person can top that........and only by a point.

What time does the lockout usually stop?

Last yr it was like 2pm sydney time. Now it is close to 4pm

Depends if you're playing for a high overall score or playing for league glory.

If you just want to take out your leagues then don't worry too much about about non-origin players because you will have byes on those weeks.

If you want a big overall score at the end you'll have to plan for the origin period and soak up some trades.

If you have him Swap Burgess into the backrow in the trade window when outing Parker and trade Parker for Smith

Excellent Idea but I still want to get rid of Bromwich

Great idea.

Now i think i'll get rid of Taumalolo for Williams.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

That' a really good idea!

 

[gronkathon]

You still cna with one trade left, with the left over money you might even be able to afford Graham (if you don't have him already) or maybe even a Hannant now Thaiday is back to the backrow either way plenty of good options.

Personally I am busy covering injuries alone so am stuck with Zeb still this week which is a little dissapointing.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

I think I'm going to swap Parker for Hindy and then wait a week and see if Cam Smith's price drops. Also because I think some of my front rowers prices might go up and make it a bit more economical.

I was thinking that getting a number of Kiwis/Poms would help with Origin time, guys like Graham/Matteo would be good picks to cover Parker now.

I think my plan of attack will be Tedesco & Parker out for Slater & Graham or Matteo in, moving Burgess to the second row if I go with Graham.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

I think getting both in your side regardless is always a good idea. I usually get Mateo at 5/8.

Another 1000 for me, need to sack Soward he has been dragging me down.

They changed it again to 1146

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Well you've jumped this guy by a point then haha

 

[gronkathon]

My strategy this year is all about the head to head.

The long term injury to Parker and the range of good performers that would allow me to trade in over the next two weeks might mean he is gone for good from my side until I cash in my cash cows

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Yeah I'm all about bragging rights over my mates so I don't worry a whole lot about origin.

I have a bad habit of leaving myself with minimal trades by the end so I'm going to tread carefully this season...........I also said this last season but only left myself with 3 trades going into the finals. Lost my the GF in my main league by 2 points after the mother of all score adjustments stripped Hayne of 20 points .

 

[Mr Saab]

440pm and it is still locked out. They better improve their lockout times cause we have an Anzac day game on Weds April 25 and that will mean it will be open for less than a day before it is locked again.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Yeah it's getting pretty annoying. All the other Fantasy comps were done ages ago.

 

[carlosthedwarf]

Unlocked now. 1035 gets me just under a 14k ranking.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Finally.....

Ranking at 11,988..........off to a slow start yet again. Not as bad as last year though.
