Ruckmen scoring low! Perhaps it's not a good idea to outlay 600k+ for Jacobs etc

Nicnat + Bellcho. May trade a fwd to Berger but not overly concerned

[eaglesman]

I went mummy Nic nat ... Belly f4 ...

I know I will be bleeding cash with mummy however .... All I can hope is he gets back to his usual tackling self in coming weeks

Went Ryder and Maric

Ryder was impacted by having to ruck 90% of the game. Should be a higher scorer once Lobbe comes back in.
Maric was solid and expect his scores to improve.

I've always found Ryder to score worse when he played alongside Bellchambers. Can't imagine playing alongside Lobbe would cause the reverse.

goldy maric

bigger probs in mid pricers in mids and backline

[tbagrocks]

Yeah actually very happy with the NicNat and Belly combo as it is

Watching the live scoring, the rucks are only getting +3 or +4 for a HOTA. Bellchambers had 15 HOTA on the weekend which should have given him 75 points from hitouts alone. We have been deceived!

Yeah I noticed that as well, If they said it was going to be +4 for HOTA and 0 for a normal hit out I would have picked Luey and Belly!

Absolutely! They said 5 points, so an extra 4 is one more than they were getting last year. Rucks are now officially dead in supercoach.

Goldy and Minson, did well enough for me

[meow meow]

On the weekend Mummy had a huge 17 HOTA amongst his 36.

Last year: 36 + 34 = 70
What he was meant to score under the new rules: 85
What they gave him instead: 68

His 98 point game should have been a 115 game. That's what I paid for.

I still dont understand why the scores are so low? Nic Nat and Maric are my rucks and I thought they both had 100+ games easily, where are they actually losing points?

[meow meow]

NN only had 9/38. Last year it would have been 56 points. This year it was meant to be 45 points. This year it was actually 36 points.

Maric only had 4/33 which is really quite pathetic. He scored most of his points from possessions, most of which were contested.

[meow meow]

Goldy had 12, which should have netted him 60 points but he would have been given only 48, which fits perfectly with my example in the earlier post, give or take a few points. Should have been a 110-112 point game instead of 100.

So we are all saying the rucks are getting stung and we shouldnt be spending money on them, I think you still need to spend the big $$ because if you have junk rucks you will be getting incredibly putrid scores rather than 90-100 for quality rucks.

Nic Nat

9/38 = 36
14 cont poss = 42, 1 uncont = 1
4 K, 11 HB @ 60% = 3*3, 5*1 = 16
1 goal = 6 points
3 clangers = -15
2 tackles = 6
Total = 92 points

Who needs CD!?

Last year it would have been a 112 point game
