The new code this year from VirtualSports still has a few bugs, judging from this story.
Just got a letter from a fantasy coach:
Hi Monty,
Recently I went into supercoach and found my forward line gone and duplicate selections of 3 key players in my squad. When I went to “remove” those duplicates and hit “Save my team”, the players value went back into my salary cap but the duplicates remained. I repeated this a number of times to get a monster salary cap, then changed the whole team and saved it and then it kept it.
See the attached screen shot – feel free to post if you like.
I post this not to embarrass VirtualSports, but to show that even the best of us sometimes has to deal with technology not doing what it’s supposed to!

Amatuer!

Not sure I like the All Guns Structure. Should trade in some rookies and use the money to name a stadium.

Are you serious? Check his stats in fanfooty, visit injury update and hand in your DT credentials.
I don’t mind people having cr@p opinions, but bagging others when you yourself have no clue is disgraceful behaviour.
Sharpen up, son, and learn to spell.

Peter G- I think if you look at the side he was being sarcastic

Thanks Nathan, valuable addition. I don’t think you understand the word irony, but keep trying.
And Pat, on second thoughts, you might be right. I was clearly a bit tetchy earlier this afternoon.
Apologies Shooter.

This is my team, and yeah I was surprised at the glitch, but if I keep it Virtual Sports won’t pay me for winning and then I’m out of my mates leagues (which I hold the raining premier title from last year so I don’t want to get booted out).
Dunno how it happened – I just took advantage!!

Awesome side.
The rest of us will have to rely on the more conventional methods and look for budget buys.
The weather forecast after Rd 3 is for *Raine-ing* cash in the backline.

Definitely too much money on the bench.

I was just playing around with my DT team and it happened to me, I had an extra $390,000. I didn’t save but. People will exploit this, but VirtualSports will stop it but still, it’s bad.

It’s funny to see how many people are easily fooled by a ridiculously obvious photoshop job, even MS Paint could do that. Come on people.

Pascoe, email me at spmunn76@gmail.com. I’ve got a league (Balls and All) going with guys from Big Footy and a couple from DT Talk.
I’ve got two spots left in total if anyone is interested. Should be a very competitive league.

Well then do it in photoshop nerds – like I’d waste my time with that.
This is a glitch (Supercoach today rectified it for me), get over it.

Why do people keep picking up on other people’s spelling? It’s a forum/chatroom, not an English exam.

I wonder if that has happened anywhere else in SC and the punters have just kept going with it? Quite an awesome advantage over the rest of us if it wasnt picked up?

That side is terrible, everyone knows you buy Luke Hodge as a back not a centre!
ShAME, SHAME, SHAME!
