I'm Over this Sub B*llshower with Supercoach!!
it has such an impact on overall scores each and every week.
You can't have a life an hour before every game starts each weekend just to ensure your player isn't given the green vest so your not at a disadvantage!!
Do you agree this should be fixed next year?
Double points for all playing Subs??

Double Points isn't going to happen, nor do I hope it does, but it would be nice if something was done but I agree unless you make sure you check teams all the time and have access to make changes etc it is a bit too much, but at the same time I don't think it's exactly hard to check your phone to see who the subs are, and if people are going to dedicate more time than others then they deserve an advantage, so its a double edged sword for me

Disagree it is part of the whole game and not picking players that are likely to get the vest. Yes I also picked up Acres this week as well!

Mr.Witt

In my opinion its all part of the game I agree its annoying ive had Crouch, Robertson, JKH and now Acres and it has made me go from say 2050 too now more like 1950 but its all part of the game we cant make it to easy.

with less and less clubs in rebuilding stage it's going to be next impossible to pick rookies that wont ever be a sub

This.

Certain players are more inclined to get the vest.

Plus, since SuperCoach scales all games to 3,300 points, a subbed player actually (minorly) increases the score of the other players. We don't complain about that

I'll be upset if they make this game any easier. We already get 30 trades and a rolling lockout FFS ::)

Makes it harder IMO

Hmm possibly. Maybe I'm just annoyed that I can't lock my team in on a Friday and not have to worry about it all weekend.

much prefer the one lock out myself

The more people have to access the supercoach app and website to change teams, trade etc the more exposure they receive for their advertising. HS dont give away $73k and a car for nothing, most if not all changes to the game benefit them.

It's not Acres being sub that has made me think this way..
Some people (including myself) do have the app that enables me to access Supercoach whenever I want but working wknds & not having the ability to check updates before every game as I'd like, then gives some advantage to the ppl with that time!

If they could some how work out a fair scoring system for green vest sub (even if you had a emergency that scored higher to take that score).. and returned to complete Lockout on a Friday night wouldn't that even out the competition completely??

GoLions

But what if a sub comes on early, dominates the game, gets the match winning goal and scores 100+? It'd be way too hard to implement something like this for players who start as sub.

Can't take their average, cause they could score higher than their average. Or it might be their first game.
Can't take emg if they score higher than your green-vested player, as you've made the decision to play 1 guy over the other at the start of the round.

And then if they DID to something about players who start as sub, you'd also have to do something about players who get red vested as well.

Elcapitano

Well what's ur thoughts? All I'm saying is i think something had to be done! u can't expected 300,000 Supercoach participants to be checking there phone 9 times a wknd within two hours of play just to ensure ur not disadvantaged!
Maybe if they just scrap the rolling lockout and returned to Full lockout on a Friday night then it evens out the game!
