Dream Team Virtual Sports - Sports Deck 2017 Thread

A 60+ from Norman would be nice !

Hows everyone tracking this round so far?

Im having a very up and down round with players in my team like SMat (17), Yates (28), Lamb (15), but balanced by big scorers Gallen (91), Hess (89), and McCullough (81).

Only thing Im gutted about is not having faith in Siro but at least I still own him, it sounds like many traded him this week....

Gives my 624/12 with (C)am, Mannering, RTS, JDB, Kaufusi still to play.

Hoping I can crack 900 this week.

I'm similar to you R&T

McCullough, Gallen and Hess. Sironen on bench. Lamb and Cotric stinking it up.

564/11
Cam (c), FKaufusi, Et, JDB, SJ, RTS to come

Nice. Most (all serious players) will have Hess but I'm hoping the combination of the three: Gallen McCullough and Hess  might give us a leg up, or at least balance out the crap scores and put us on par with the top guys!

Funny that two of the most talked about trade outs, on this forum at least willows it. Sironen and Gallen I mean

Will be interesting to see how SJ goes with Foran. I understand DCE went better with Foran than without. But how much better can SJ really get? More attacking stats I guess... Make or break for the warriors too I reckon. They desperately need a momentum swings d I hope Foran will be the catalyst for that.

Where's that gorgeous man @Paceys Best at?

Think you should get me this week good sir. You got a 70 odd point lead with Faufusi and RTS to come vs my SJ and ET. Having to play Cotric and SMat this week has killed me but I can still make a run for it!

Hey mate. I was lucky enough to have McCullough and Hess who have made the difference. Hoping for a reasonable score to make some ground on these leaders.

If only I could loop hole Captain Cam I have Vice sitting on PG13

When ET was benched, I almost panic traded him to Vaughan, but instead kept him as NRP and played Jacks instead.

Cost me 69 points and a shit load of cash (but I saved a trade I guess, and I can now conitnue more easdily with my plan to bring in Taumalolo this week)

Got my eye on Taumalolo also this week and maybe Ponga as well.

What's a good score this week? I got 833.

That is a good score looking around the leagues. You beat me by 1, 832.

I got 891 and while I think that will be a respectable score in relation to the top 100 I think there will be a number of people who comfortably crack 900 this week. Some massive scorers and I suspect they will all have decent ownership.

The last two games weren't great for me. Vaughn, who I don't have killed it and despite Cam, Mannering, and JDB putting up respectable scores they weren't what I had hoped.

I got 838.

Bottled it by playing Jacks over ET when ET was benched. Also had Sironen as NPRs.

Just fixing those 2 up would have seen me clear 900.

On the plus side one would expect most serious players would have had several of the failures such as RTS, Kaufusi, Smat, Yates etc.... and perhaps a low scoring C too. I was pretty happy to get just shy of 100 out of my two Cs this week.

Im a bit gutted I went for Norman over Vaughn, Vaughn really does look like a beast this year. I think he is gonna be a must have. Trouble is he is increasing in value so fast that it will be tough to bring him in...

Im considering downgrading Smat to get Slater and seeing if that generates enough cash to get Vaughn this week or next.

Nice score R&T arent you already in the top 10, think a score like that will hold you in good stead.

Cheers mate, yeah was 9th, and just looked as I am typing and see I am now 6th, so a little surprised to be honest.

That being said, I don't know if you guys had looked at the top ranked players prior to this round, but there were quite a few who no the surface probably aren't that clued on. Their starting players had gone well but their benches were stacked with no-names, so one would think they'll drop off the pace quite quickly, and that seems to have happened this week.

One fullah, currently in 2nd nailed it with 1029 this week, rising 152 places so things can change quickly.

Overall I am closer to 1st than last week so thats always good 30 points out by the looks!

I thought 837 was good.

Whether you're a Brother, a Wookie on Endor or you Shizzle your Nizzle - you're my bitch this week.

Nice work R&T.

Rocks and diamonds for old OSM this week but I still managed to crack the top 100 and the other good news is that I have reached the pinnacle of positions for an immature mind - 69th.

VSDT opened before fantasy ,so they get their BEs first

I have just noticed that unlike fantasy - VSDT credits people with a score of 0 if they are an unused sub.
Certainly that is the case for Young Tonumaipea who was given a 0 in round 1 when he didn't actually take the field. I have manually fixed up Young T in my spreadsheet (which for ease of coding treats a 0 as DNP) as well as Jackson Hastings - who got a legitimate 0 in his 9 minutes this weekend.
There may be other errors though
