2019 NRL Supercoach fantasy thread part 1

Yeah I was thinking about CHN a few weeks ago when I realised he was available at CTR and got the starting spot from Rd 3.

He's been subbed a couple of times though and with guys like Martin and RFM in and out of the team, I didn't trust CHN enough to bring him in.

Obviously wishing I did now, but feels too much like chasing last week's score.

+ the family member already having him and trying to avoid too many matching players, but that's irrelevant to you guys

There are so many better options.

Hard to fins space for all the CTR guns.

I'll probably end up running guys like Bateman and Nikora as my 2rf Starter guns.

SC is the reverse, i want CTR's who can play in 2rf, not 2rf who can play CTR!

I was thinking about putting Nikora in the SR so I can fill my CTRs with..

Bateman, CNK, Croker & Leulia

In all seriousness though, I'm thinking about Croker in a few weeks. Keep Nikora at CTR, but stack it with 3 Raiders.

Starting to get cold feet on Arey...

Nikora, Bateman, Marsters and Mitchell will probably be my 4 CTWs for the run home. Will pick up Mitchell after origin.

Rapana on the bench?

My CTR's atm are Mitchell, Gutherson, CNK and Oates. Might swap oates for masters after round 12.

I don't love the 2rf options, so will stick with Murray, Nikora and bateman. Jturbo for long term bench spot.

I keep flipping between chn and marsters. Going to be one of those weeks for me.

Nice post on nrlsctalk on chn -

If you take out the first 2 rounds where he came off the bench
he is averaging 45.4 in pure base, 12.4 in offloads and 4 points per game in TB’s
Has had 2 HIA’s in the 5 games he has started too. Promising signs when you dig a little deeper.

2 HIA's in 5 games is a bit worrying

I say bring in Martsters. A proper CTW gun, a better Croker. CHN to me is good for a draft team but I couldn't spend money on him.

Yea sticking with Marsters. C is on Bateman.

Put the C on cook, so happy with that outcome.

Traded Capwell to AFB, by swapping burgess to backrow.

Traded Johnson to Arey.

So happy with outcome so far!

Most of my trades now will be for round 12. Lots of good options for round 12.

For me that includes, AFB, Kpow, JFH, Moses, Tolo, Walker

Did anyone else get an email about attending a forum for Supercoach quality improvement etc? If only NRL Fantasy did the same....

The UI for supercoach is so much better than fantasy, it's really just a nicer place to be.

For afl, the fantasy UI is almost unusable. No exaggeration it's completely dog$hit. So bad that I don't even really want to play on it and my rank is far better on fantasy. Supercoach is miles ahead from that perspective for me.

OMG the AFL Fantasy UI is a complete disgrace. I thought I was the only one who struggled because I'm not really that into AFL, I just like fantasy sports.... but dear god that app and website is complete poop. Borderline unusable.

If you finished in top 1k last season. Look out for an email from SC and you'll be able to claim a keyring with your rank

Kicking myself. First round I don't captain Cook and he gets 100 lol

I don't perma capitain cook. Its strategic for me each week, can't really rely on base stats for SC big scores.

I went Munster last week, Cook the week before that, ponga, tedesco etc.

And don't worry I was VERY worried about Cooks scores at 50 mins, he was sitting on about 30.

Yeah gonna be tough for me the next few weeks not having Cook. Really hoping he's rested for the Friday night game after origin.

Was feeling pretty good about not getting him yet when he was like 33 after 60 mins, but that changed fast.

Have a bad feeling that Teddy's gonna smash 100+ vs. us too and not get much cheaper for next week.
