This forum needs a bit more love at the moment I think.

This sucks Chewie
You should have considered a long shower instead.

Yeah sorry for your loss Chewie. Who were you planning to captain? Provided it’s not my captain or a player I own, I’ll deathride the shit out of them

Why stop there? You should be able to captain people you don't own.

Why not? but you can only spend them on trading out people who then go on a tear

A valid argument to not own Cleary or Hynes if I could still bag the captain points

I've written a complaint to Fantasy NRL that app won't let me buy IPap at his original price as I was so close to starting season with him instead of DFifi

Luke or Obi-wan would have probably been able to use their Jedi mind tricks to fix it. "This is not the captain you're looking for..."
I just don't have those kind of powers...
I've just got to learn to fit into the looping and seriousness of the game approach, i never learn.
So, ill try again. Serves u right Chewie, u stuffed it and deserve no captaincy points this week ! Don't come to me for sympathy a hairy behemoth !

Tbh I kind of like it the way it is, where fantasy you can loop reserves but not VC/C, and in Supercoach you can loop VC/C but not reserves.
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be

Maybe introduce the EPL free hit chip, where you can mass trade in players you don't own for a week get their scores and then revert to your real team the next week!
I could use it to trade in a bunch of guys who then get rested like I usually do

You should be able to captain your entire squad for double points, but "super-captain" one player for quadruple points.

Yeah it's a punt for sure. Always more fun to cheer on your fantasy player when they're in the team you support. (I realise this is not good fantasy strategy)

If we are talking bad captaincy stories
I captained Hammer one round last year (or maybe 2020)
I set him as captain as I was checking whether or not the captaincy stats updated in real time or not. But then forgot to change it back before lock out.
Don't think it cost me too many points.

Imagine... there were a lot of coin flips (at the time) and I chose the wrong one for each one to start the year. If I got them all the other way around, there would be a lot of saved trades that I spent trying to fix it and a lot higher rank with points gained
Mahoney v Cook
Crichton v Papali'i/Haas
Walters v Ming
Billy Smith v Tago

Harris was going to be my captain. He was part of the trades, hence the need for a rollback. It's all good though, it would be worse if it happened to someone like Mulvy or DarkKnight who are in with a shotrobelgordo wrote:Yeah sorry for your loss Chewie. Who were you planning to captain?

A good idea but doubt Failhub would invest in programming required to make it work. EPL is free to play but with over 9 million team accounts and big sponsors I'm sure no issues making game enhancing chips

Apologies Beth, if my threesome get a room jibe is unwarranted.
But the last few pages is way better than Avo talk surely ?
