Round 1 Progressive Scores

[Baggers2012]

1496 / 13, Gazza as C

Rohan the only sub 80 score, Pav & JPK dissapointed a little.

[Ringo]

Seem to be lagging behind most with number played but currently 986/8.

Rohan disappointed with 47 and McVeighs 82 a little disappointing as well.  Remaining 6 all 100+

So I've stuffed up both loopholes - Beams VC and Langdon.

So effectively 1000/9 with C still to come lol. Thinking Danger is the only other possibility at this stage.

Can't believe this has happened! If only I had gone with my gut decision!

[Hawks_1976]

1552/13(C).

That's about as good as I've heard or seen so far.

Happiest selection so far is Swallow - 135.

Mitchell, Suckling, McDonald, Liberatore, Tyson, Michie, Dangerfield, Gunston, Caddy to come.

Optimistically hoping for a 2350 but would happily take 2250 for R1.

Still debating whether to start Michie or Dunstan. I think Dunstan may win more contested possessions = better SC score? Unsure.

How have you stuffed up? Can't you just get a non-playing player onto the field and give them the C? Have both your ruck rookies already had their games? And if you want Langdon too (although I don't think it's worth a non-playing back rookie), you could get a non-playing back onto the field and give them the C!

Looks like there's going to be some massive scores after Round 1.

I'm currently 9/1369 (captain has played) which on paper sounds good, but can't help but feel it's pretty average given that 90% of people (especially on here) will be +/- 70 points.

What do you think will win it this round? 2700+?

Isnt remotely average but surely there is a mistake or typo here. :o

I have already chosen Derickx as my emergency in rucks (quite awhile ago) so even if I do chuck Currie on field I won't receive Nic Nat'z score. Same down back as I did have a non playing player until I got convinced otherwise who had the C on him, so I immediately traded to Clurey and stuck him on the bench. So now I risk losing any cash generation by picking another rookie defender over McDonald/Webster which I don't want to do. The last avenue I had was to use Crouch in the mids but apparently he'll get up for this weeks game. So now, I have to choose a captain.. Only players that I see being good enough for that is Dangerfield/Libba.

Might not be worth the risk but if you have two non-playing rookies in the ruck line (which is quite possible given the solid chance that no ruck rookies will play this week), you can still loophole. If you have two emergencies in one line and only one of them plays, you get that score. So, despite Derickx being emergency in rucks, you can also put NicNat on your bench as emergency and then put the C on the other non-playing rook! Unless, of course, all your other emergencies have already played.

Don't think I can find any way for you to get Langdon's score though :(

Didn't know I could do that LH, because I thought having the two emergencies in one line automatically determined that the lowest score gets chosen so a zero would count for Derickx?

Hahah nah man I don't think so either. There could be hope however if McDonald gets named an emergency after today's revelation.

Yeah wato you're right! Lowest score counts so it means Derickx 0 would count instead of NicNat's

I'm 99% sure the lowest score of a playing player counts, not just the lowest score. Because Derickx didn't play at all, you'd get the other score!

Alright cheers mate, might have to double check that because if it fails I'm up shower creek.

Yeah, definitely see if you can get some confirmation. I'd hate to accidentally screw you over but I'm practically certain that's how it works!

[RaisyDaisy]

I think LaHug is right here

If both emergencies had played than yes you get the lowest score, but considering Derickx didn't even play I am pretty sure you wil get NicNat's score if you bench him and put the E on him too

The E on Derickx is void as he didn't play

I also don't want to say this 100% right and stuff you up, but pretty sure its right

Cheers RD,

Think all this effort will be in vein anyway as Currie looks like being named and playing. Ffs this just isn't my week.
