Double Emergency Question

[glynman90]

Ok, so I've got Montags as my VC and I've decided to keep his score so I've shifted my captain to Prestia and put Swallow on the bench and made him an emergency. The thing is that I've also got Harris on the bench in the mids as an emergency. Will the highest scorer out of those two count or what will happen?

Note: The reason I have two emergencies in my mids is because all my bench players in the forward line have a bye.

if u have 2 emergencies in same position u get the lowest scoring emergency players's score

[shents]

The lowest scoring emergency counts. I'd remove harris out of the two you've mentioned, and keep swallow as the emergency.

[glynman90]

The lowest? Are you kidding me? Why would it be the lowest?

[Prospector_1]

Its what the rule is. Make one of your rucks an emergency.

[C-Dogg]

its always been the lowest, with harris and swallow its a case of POTATA PATATO

[glynman90]

Ok thanks, I'm glad I asked.

[Prospector_1]

Of course, if 2 emergencies are required - ie there are 2 non-playing / not named blots on field - then you get both emergency scores.

There is a simple reason why you get the lowest. If you got the highest rhen you could exploit the ememrgency rule every week by putting someone on the field whos not playing, and setting 2 emergencies in the ine position. Then you would get the highest scoring emergency every week.

yea it means you need to choose otherwise if you were unsure who scored better you could make two emergencies and you would get the best makes sense that its the lowest
