Things to look for in SC

The players you choose in DT are very different from those you want in your SC line up.

Accuracy has to be the biggest difference of all. SC based scoring system is indeed accuracy. Although the Super Coach site does not publish all scoring points or non scoring points there are still things worth taking into consideration.
*Where is the player on the ladder in SC ie: price/average
*What fundamentals has this player contributed to a game at the time of live scoring.
*A Clanger is going to get you nowhere.(a clanger is when you kick to the opposition)
*Hard Ball gets a plus
*Contested marks a plus
*Uncontested marks get you points but not many
*Goal kicked  = 8 a no brainer.
And the list goes on and on.

Strive to pick a gun in each position. Not just anyone but someone you truly feel and have researched will make a consistent effort and play 22 games. The rookie evlevations are somewhat left to be desired. Is it a team that NEEDS to play rookies? IE: hawks. or maybe bottom of the 2009 ladder with team over hauls.

Most of all before you choose any player in your team think about why you want them there. Do they have the stats to back them up?
There are so many aspects of the players to consider when choosing and  trading your DreamTeam/Super Coach. Thought I might mention a few that are not so  obvious.

*A lot of the players in the 200k-275k price range that  had an average of at least 60-75 last year may be prime picks for DTSC  scores of 90+ this year - if they are heading into their 3rd, 4th or 5th  year.

*Clubs such as Bombers, Richmond, Roos, WCE, Melb and Freo  have been forced to play rookies due to club overhauls, so picking your  rookies for first few rounds from these teams is a good idea if you  want to make money off them to trade later for guns.

*Rookies  that score big in the Nab Cup from Clubs that have better than average  players on their set 22 are less likely to play more than 10 games  unless a major player strikes injury early which in that case you can  trade for another 400k+ player.

*Players priced 380k+ with 2 or  more major injuries in their career are not likely to finish a season  and price will drop dramatically leaving you with a trade down effect.

*If  possible go for a cheap dual position player when choosing your ruck  emergencies(again from teams that are forced to play rookies due to Club  overhauls)

*Before making trades check if they are on the injury  list, I have seen so many people trade for a better player only to find  out later they are injured. (lol yes it happens)

*This may sound  silly but read the tabloids(yes New Idea and Womans Weekly lol).  Players who have wives or girlfriends in the spotlight may have added  stress on their minds before a game and you may want to put them in  emergency just for that week.

Food for thought

It's OK, just for a moment I thought she might be an Essendon / Poonee Monds person.

The Women's was in Carlton, so a mighty lot of people were born in Carlton!

You dang Pies, it might as well be a religion!
