SUPERCOACH 2013

[Rfc4Ever]

Just went Goodes to Ibbotson myself. Issue with the rucks having Cox, Nicholls and Simpson. Cannot play all three unfortunately.

And then Ibbotson repays you with a filthy score...and Nicholls gets injured...

I already had a win for this week so didn't bother trading but my defence is in need for some bolstering for next week seeing as I have both Goodes and Hanley benched.

 

[SfB_AkA._DeLiCiOuS]

Been a tough week for a few people, got a player starting as sub plus my bench players were used because of 2 late changes.
Also had an injury mid game.

 

[Rfc4Ever]

Time to get rid of Goodes - might keep Hanley if he is going to miss more than another week.

Also considering getting rid of Maric probably for Goldstein.

Nice score for Round 18 BTW Bullus.

Cheers Skillz, closing in on the mystical top 100, sit 155 at the moment but still some ground to make up. The fight for the top prize is pretty intense, this one will go down to the wire - not too many trades left at the top.

 

[WesternTiger]

Murdered by Buddy and Roughie today! ;D

 

[Tiger Ghost]

Tough week once again, burnt 2 trades this week, punted Nicholls for the cash and bought Hanley back into my backline.
1 trade left which will be mid/forward Harvey/Bartel then i'm done and what will be will be.


How did we play this game with 24 trades in previous years? With so many late outs, rested and subs the game is becoming tougher......i just hope they dont go the same way as dream team

It used to be 20 trades before last year.

All out of trades now, just hoping for the injury gods to be kind. Up to 133 in the rankings, scaling the top 100 is like approaching the summit of Everest.

I still have 3 left and 100k - trying to sneak a league win.

Will have to wait and see.

3 trades is very handy at this stage, plan on any this week? It's do or die now, looks like I might be meeting you next week if you manage a win.

Hehe...not sure yet. Will size up my opposition this week first!

ive got two left and two semis to play. reckon i will use them both this week.

Injury update makes for depressing reading -

Hartlett - suspended 2 weeks
Heppell - likely stress fractures (season)
Hanley - hip flexor (test)
Henderson - knee (season)

Cox - reprimand
Cotchin - test
Scott Thompson - test
Ibbotson - available

Big trouble for most I would have thought, those with trades are in a plum position (unfortunately i am not one of them).

 

[newyorktiger]

I have a dilemma for my work comp. I need the 2 trades to upgrade if I make the GF however I'm scraping the barrel this week. Hopefully the opponent is average.

 

[Scoop]

It's been a horrible second half of the year for me. Gone from top 800 to top 8000.

Blown right out.

 

[bullus_hit]

Confirmed outs-

Ibbotson
Hartlett
Heppell
Thompson
Nicholls

Test - Hanley (looks promising)
Kreuzer (50/50)
Cotchin (likely)

Big game this week Bullus - I have you in the PRE league prelim.

Supercoach Gold has you pipping me by 1 point!

Should be close!

 

[Tiger Ghost]

Lewis a late out for me is a killer, only had McCaffer as cover

 

[Brodders17]

2 Prelims. 1 trade left. I have hung onto it tho if Hanley or Cotch are late outs I will prob use it.
Walker out is a pain tho I have Staker as an emergency

So far my 2 games are tight. I need a big one from skipper GAblett tomorrow. And no more late outs.

 

[Rfc4Ever]

Bad luck Bullus, went down to the wire.

Thought my trade Clisby to Birchall ruined it for me but I have tried to trade with both risks ala Dixon and smarts when you look at my depth on the bench.
