Silly question; when tonights game starts, will we no longer have the unlimited trades option?

With a rolling lock out you can bring a non player onto the field and put the C on them.
eg Danger goes big 150+ if Rowe is not named then I name him as second Ruck and put C on him.

Need to do sums though before final decision.
Eg Danger as Vice Captain 300 points + 0 for Rowe = 300
Ablett as Captain say 240 points and Berger as 2nd Ruck say 80 points = 320pts so change not worth it.

Hope that explains it a little better but to use the loophole you need to be sure it is for your benefit as explained above,

Yeah I understand how the loophole works, but to do it in this split round 1 your guessing who wont play the following week.

Using your example of Rowe, who's to say he or all your other rookies wont be named? then the only way out of it is to deliberately pick another player who isn't named next week. Is it worth deliberately picking a non starter next week for the loophole?

We can still freely trade next week though

yes but if you want your VC's score next week you will have to effectively start the season with a player who will not play round 1 (and it can't be crouch as hes already played!)

Thank you

Thanks ST, didn't think of that! Can anyone confirm when hthe last lockout is? I remember it being posted somewhere here but cannot find it. I also cannot find it on the SC website.

Many thanks in advance

you can still put the VC on cox or danger anyway. if the loophole doesnt allow you to work, its all good. you put the C on GAJ and take his score anyway. nothing lost.
some players that the loophole may work with are rowe, currie, daw. prob no others really as the rest of your rookies bench you would want to be playing rd 1. the rucks is prob the only exception area.....

Thanks Captain! Do you know if I can use the Ablett VC, Pendles as back up? I cannot find anything that confirms/denies this, most seem to be using this weekends games...

Yes, there is a rolling lockout for every game of the year, including round 1, so you can do ablett then put pendles if you have that 0 scorer.
