Bunch of mates and i are doing Supercoach Pro for the 1st time. Anyone have words of wisdom in regards to Pro ??. I believe that rookie selection will make or brake teams MORE in Pro than Supercoach. I know trades are unlimited but if someone else has gun rookies then you can only watch through green glasses. (
I'm no expert on it mate, I asked here and got no response, hence I am responding to you I have ended up with a squad I am very happy with using this order of selection; Ruck, Back, Fwd, Mid, Back, Fwd, Mid, Back, Mid, Fwd - For the team on the park And for reserves I went Ruck, Mid, Mid, Back, Fwd. The reasoning I used was so few goods rucks, I wanted to be at the front of that queue. Backs and Fwds next as genuine point generators are harder to find there than in the mid. My team fwiw is; Adcock, Enright, Fisher Watson, D Swallow, Montagna Cox Pavlich, L Adams, NRoo Bench is Butler, Ward, S Selwood, J Griffin and Crameri. I found the pre draft composer less useful than you would think, other than to remove the injured players near the top so I didn't accidentally grab one under pressure. The only other real thing is to take time, 60 seconds is a butt load longer than you think, and at one point 1/2 way through there was a player available I really wanted and I grabbed him, then went back to my order, so even that is only a guide... Hope you have fun and we both do well!
Interesting list. Now you have a good point re ruckman. Yeah I figured re injury. So with your order of selection, (since my draft is in two weeks time on 31st March), I should put in top 4 as best rucks, then 4 best backs, so on. Thanks heaps for your feedback, now i feel a lot more confident, and have a plan!
Hey Gerardic and Lenh, Here at TS we created our own SC Draft style competition, the ORFFL. Check it out http://tooserious.net/forum/afl-group2/orffl-forum13 I'm not sure of the specifics of SC Pro, but if you looks in the Draft thread, it should give you some idea about how coaches went about picking a side, and in what order. Cheers Hornsy
Thanks Hornsy, I looked there originally but couldn't see any sort of strategy discussion, however revisiting now I cn see tactics being used in the actual draft process. Joined this site well past the date that became relevant, hopefully forum growth will mean two leagues can run next year as the idea really appeals to me, good luck with the Savages!
Do it! Great fun. Yeah, there's not a lot of strategy being discussed, as everyone keeps those cards pretty close to the chest. Bear in mind that the ORFFL is a keeper league, and I'm going to make a wild assumption that SC Pro is a one year only thing.
