Forward Bench Strategy

PowerMan · February 23, 2011, 09:00:51 PM

at the moment tossing up between having 2 gold coast rookies (Prestia & Matera) along with Richardson... or having 1 gold coast rookie (Prestia/Matera) with Richardson & Callinan.

Which would be the better opition?

Prestia, Richardson and Callinan - providing like most you have Mzungu in your mid.

Having the two means extra coverage required for rnd1. A good rule of thumb when trying to spread the coverage across all teams is to have only one player from one team per line if possible.

This is true, though pretty sure Richo will start rd 1 atm, meaning you would have coverage for rd 1, because usually you only assign 1 emergency for fwd backup. This strategy shouldn't disadvantage you, the main concern is that you have 130k sitting on the bench when there is possibly a player that is 90k that will earn the same average.

my fwd line has mzungu and richardson on the field, with prestia matera and callinan on the bench, nd i think its a winner

i actually just changed my team so i only have richardson stating with mzungu, matera and prestia on the bench with callinan in the mids. I downgraded lids to coad and upgraded krak to sylvia.
