Hi all. I'm running a league is for all those in the SCC Community who will be spending all or at least a large part of the footy season abroad. Playing SC from the far reaches of the globe comes with its own set of unique challenges and it's actually one of the reasons I've become so involved...

"Best looking 12 year old I've ever seen." - Careful Cactus?!!

Keen for thoughts on running without a "C" loophole bench player? Eg, If you ran with Witts at R3 for money making and Sandi Cover instead of the Strnadica and Nank combo, is a non-playing loophole at M11 instead worthwhile or not? It is clearly more complicated to implement the loophole...

Pretty safe I'd say and should score consistently. Not my cup of tea as I enjoy a risk or two but whatever floats your boat. Nice work.

If Martin stays as solo Ruck it could be a genius move so go for it I say.

Can some of you Cats supporters please expand a little on George Horlin-Smith? We're all salivating about JOM and Swallow but this bloke has had a great JLT and is only 234K which is basically a rookie price. What's his JS looking like? I noticed Scott Selwood isn't playing? Are they competing...

Hey @cactus I reckon' Bud is a solid pick at the price. He looks super fit after carrying a lot of niggles toward the end of last year and we've already seen him willing to throw his weight around which is a good sign that he's feeling fit and strong. In terms of SC relevance, I don't think you...

Also worth considering that Mills sat out half the game last weekend, and more importantly, McVeigh and Jack will come into the team as some point when fit. If you're picking Lloyd at this price you must think he's a keeper but his role is too questionable with those players coming back for mine.

Only 11 games and never as a solo ruck. For me, my team selections are all based on Role before anything else. Any Ruckman that gets picked as a solo ruck is relevant imo.

Fort Bondi reporting for duty. Bring it!

So I'm similar. The nominations for Best Ruck Options 2017 are: Gawn and Goldy Gawn and Sandi Grundy and Sandi Goldy and Sandi Hickey and Sandi And the winner is.... (drum roll) NANKILANDS!!! .....oh, wait no sorry....wrong envelope.

F#%! it, I'm doing it...#Nankilands here we come!

Titch. I can! Haha.

It seems to me that the risk with Sandi is that he goes down in the first 6 weeks. That's it. If he lasts 6 weeks then at worst you swap him out when he gets over the 500k mark, but at best, he ends up being a keeper that only cost 300k.

I agree, the mids usually earn us cash quickest. Last year we had the likes of Parish, Hopper, Oliver, Menegola, Blakely, Mathieson etc. But so far this year to my mind we've only got Powell-Pepper as a lock with Barrett, Wigg, and Brodie as possibles. Lloyd played well in JLT 1 but was on the...

M11 for me. Seems a better option this year than R3 for two reasons: 1.There seem to be a couple of genuine Ruck Rookies this year 2.Mid Rookies look to be hard to find so I don't feel like I'm leaving anyone out by sacrificing M11 for a loophole player.

Played well and bossed the midfield today but who were his opponents! Honestly, I know it's important to blood the kids but to just dump them in it with barely a senior player in sight just seems counterproductive. I like Bolton but not sure he made the right selection calls today.

Massive fan of Ramps too. His problem is he's so valuable in the one on one's that he'll never be the guy that regularly roams free like a Docherty. For me he's a similar SC prospect to Josh Gibson. He'll score big when the match ups allow but will have some low scoring games too when he's...

Mate he's an underrated player for sure. He's rapidly becoming one of our best distributors which is why he spent a fair bit of time across half back last year and gained the defence eligibility. He's an outside player with decent leg speed. He had a great year last year for us and I'd expect...
