Motts Movers R6, 2012 – The Rucks

by Motts on May 8, 2012

Premiums

Dean Cox ($542,600, 103.17, 106) – Bounced back from an 82 with a more much respectable 141 that would’ve got more than a few coaches over the line in the last game of the round.

Jarryd Roughead ($520,300, 102.60, 100 ) – Went for 120 on the weekend. You’d have to say that this would be the week to get him in judging by that 100 BE.

Midpricers

Never did I think these 3 blokes would all make the one Movers post.

Will Minson ($487,300, 95.83, 54) – Has the best 3 round average over the last 3 of all playing rucks – 101, 132, 109. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Ben Hudson ($493,400, 102.20, 74 ) – Has only missed the ton once in 5 games. Someone tell me why he retired again?

Ivan Maric ($451,900, 99.17, 42) – Here’s this year’s scores for Big Ivan: 97, 68, 94, 104, 103, 129. If you’d started the year with him and McIntosh as your 2 starters you’d be over the moon.

Value Picks

Brent Renouf ($275,200, 70.33, -3)Scored 100 on the weekend but seriously, don’t even think about it.

OK everyone other than Matteo needs to steer clear of Renouf. Matteo, you’re allowed to get him.

In this case, I believe that means “Point of Disaster”

Was so close to putting Willy Minson in my team to partner up with Giles, but couldn’t look at my team without feeling sick with him there. Quite harsh on my behalf.

I instead put Mumford. I know there is a lot of “what if’s” in supercoach but I can not stop pondering where I could be if I went with big Willy instead of “Sausage King”. Oh super coach, you can be a cruel game sometimes.

i’m a big fan of roughy. I will be moving him to the ruck soon when I cash in Redden or the big o. (if they get any more game time).

I will attempt to back fill roughy with a DPP forward player such as dangerfield if money allows.

That will depend if I can get ablett back in. 391K in bank.

Not sure if it’s good or bad news for Giles owners but with Brogan going down, GWS have upgraded youngster A. Phillips to their senior list and he’s set to make his debut this w/end against the Suns.

He did look tired against the Blues, Scatts and who on earth knows what Sheedy is thinking anyway. Cameron scores 5 goals and gets rested the next week, they might rest him but we’ve just got to wait.

55 Chino, 1 more week maybe!

I’m actually looking at keeping him though, he has been the back bone to my ruck division with all the premiem rucks going down this season.

Catta ..I was hoping giles could be there till the round 11 bye ? The ruck department have been very ordinary so far ..

I hope your on the money Scatts, he’s a mature age rookie & has that extra bulk about him. I’d be surprised if Sheeds was to rest the big fella, I’m with you about r11……if he’s still playing well, he stays if he’s starting to drop off…he’s being upgraded!

Catta , maybe giles could be keeper if he stays on the park and consistently breaks the 90 to 100 mark .
Talking about rucks Catta , im kicking myself now that i didn’t take my own advice from the start of the season and get in big hamish mac .

Yeah I’m sure there are many of us that had HMac in one of our pre season teams mate!

Giles will be like Z Smith last year, get ready for a lot of 60-70s

I’d trade him next week, but he’s my only ruck getting a game

I did a “Bob” a few years back Motts, and went with Will Minson, was a very regrettable decision. Looks like he’s finally coming good.

Bob (vb.) – to consider yourself without peer when it comes to picking undervalued SuperCoach talent leading you to include players in your team that no rational person would ever choose (eg Folau, Israel).

Hi. I am new to sc this year and still confused as to the dpp ruling. As mentioned earlier in this thread about moving roughead to rucks from fwd. do I need a dpp fwd in rucks in order to move roughy from fwd to rucks. If so who is a good dpp player to be able to switched roughy with

No, you can trade a Ruck out, move Roughead into the vacant slot and then backfill with a Forward. It’s an new innovation this year.

Just trade the ruck you want to get of, then on the trade screen hit the ‘S’ next to Roughy to switch him into the rucks, and trade in a forward.

Gotta trade out McEvoy.

Sandi’s injury issues scare me.
Big H’s scoring potential scares me if and when Goldy returns to the team
Can Hudson sustain these scores?
Thinking of bringing in the giant mullet, maybe

Just really perplexed. There seems alot of potential but very little inconsistency plus injury issues as well.

Hmmmm……
