Good evening all, Hope you had a great Easter weekend and haven't indulged in too much chocolate (unlike HeavyMen who no doubt will have eaten enough chocolate to sink the Titanic). To score 3054 this week you needed (pending final checking and approval by SuperCoachSuperStar, SFB, DoggyODFL, etc.) Goddard - STK - $584,700 - 147 Deledio - RIC - $568,700 - 145 Rance - RIC - $456,800 - 127 Burgoyne - HAW - $433,200 - 121 Firrito - KAN - $372,000 - 116 Dempsey - ESS - $273,800 - 111 Lake - WBD - $286,900 - 110 Selwood - WCE - $445,800 - 155 Bastinac - KAN - $377,200 - 151 Watson - ESS - $574,600 - 149 Shuey - WCE - $513,000 - 127 Anthony - KAN - $383,200 - 125 Masten - WCE - $310,600 - 124 Sandilands - FRE - $600,500 - 149 Giles - GWS - $126,700 - 100 Hawkins - GEE - $377,300 - 318 (c) Harvey - KAN - $548,000 - 137 Monfries - ESS - $451,500 - 136 Whitecross - HAW - $375,000 - 133 Waite - CAR - $423,300 - 133 Cornes - GWS - $378,300 - 121 Edwards - KAN - $376,600 - 119 bench of $94,700 no-namers with $4,700 in the bank. The original TOTR scored 3149 but was almost $1.7m over the $10m budget. players that got the chop were (for the loss of 95 points): Hurn - WCE - $446,000 - 117 Houli - RIC - $483,700 - 115 Judd - CAR - $626,400 - 150 Murphy - CAR - $639,900 - 147 Ablett - GCS - $689,000 - 143 McEvoy - STK - $548,800 - 117 Cloke - COL - $529,800 - 122 Special mention to Courtenay Dempsey from Essendon who is the ONLY player to make a repeat appearance from the round 1 TOTR. (just proves once again that it's no good chasing last weeks points). I had three players make the team (Deledio, Lake and Giles). Add Ablett to the list to make 4. Meanwhile, this week's highest scoring team (Hogans Heroes - 2510) had 9 players make the list (if you include the players cut to get in under-budget). And finally, a little treat for those of you who have read to the end! In my local footy on the weekend the coach was giving the seniors (I play in the reserves team) a real spray at half time in the rooms. Anyway, he threw his clipboard down on the ground that hard that he dislocated his finger! He didn't flinch and continued the spray for another couple of sentences before holding his hand out to the side and saying 'can someone fix this' before continuing on with the serve! Eventually a player and then a trainer tried to put it back in with no success. His last words to the players at half time before they ran out on to the ground and before he went off to hospital was 'you better be 10 goals in front by the time I get back'. We won by 11 goals... Well, take care and good luck with your team in the first round of head 2 head. The Silverback
Come on Silverback - the Titanic? Never, possibly a small fishing boats worth would be more factual! Alas only Lids & Giles for me (Ablett & Murphy) & sadly no Mummy on your list - because he DIDN"T play!!!
crikey Silverback, I was cringing in the penultimate paragraph. Oh my, only approx 1000 off the ultimate team, such is the fate of a dud supercoach
I've got it up to 3063: Goddard - STK - $584,700 - 147 Deledio - RIC - $568,700 - 145 Rance - RIC - $456,800 - 127 Burgoyne - HAW - $433,200 - 121 Firrito - KAN - $372,000 - 116 Dempsey - ESS - $273,800 - 111 Geary - STK - $213,000 - 100 Selwood - WCE - $445,800 - 155 Bastinac - KAN - $377,200 - 151 Watson - ESS - $574,600 - 149 Judd - CAR - $626,400 - 150 Kennedy - SYD - $520,900 - 139 Masten - WCE - $310,600 - 124 Sandilands - FRE - $600,500 - 149 Giles - GWS - $126,700 - 100 Hawkins - GEE - $377,300 - 318 (c) Harvey - KAN - $548,000 - 137 Monfries - ESS - $451,500 - 136 Whitecross - HAW - $375,000 - 133 Waite - CAR - $423,300 - 133 Cornes - GWS - $378,300 - 121 Stanley - STK - $176,200 - 101 $94,700 players on the bench with $27,900 remaining
oh well, there you have it... looks like I'm no good at this caper anymore! All the best to SuperCoachSuperStar for the rest of the year as there's no point me publishing incorrect information each week. The King is dead, long live The King! kind regards, The Silverback
Interesting Team SuperStar - my version also came out at 3063 but a slight variation with LAKE,BRIAN and BATCHELOR,JAKE instead of Firrito and Geary - however at an additional $7500, therefore Silverback is on the money with the latest comment. well done. Team of the Round http://teamoftheround.blogspot.com.au/2012/04/supercoach-team-of-round-2_11.html Also calculated a practical team with bench at 3041+ 503 bench. Practical Team of the Round with bench. http://teamoftheround.blogspot.com.au/2012/04/bench-of-round-2.html
Its not an easy job SB easier to takes someones (ie your) initial hardwork and tinker rather than doing it all from scratch - all gets confusing. My effor this week was coming up well short... then duh captain is *2 lol
