    So much like a normal Wests game?
     
  2. AVA T Delonge

    :laugh:
     
  3. Lukic L Popovic

    Yeah, pretty much tbh.

    Heavily consdering moving Monaghan to starting Hooker. Having him as my primary organiser. Playing Two of Wing, Rogers, Mclinden and Sutton in the halves and having Cunningham off the bench.

    I hav e a question though. Say I start with Monaghan as my primary organiser out of the No.9 and then sub on Cunningham or Wing into Hooker at different stages will I be able to then keep Monas as my organising half and have a creative and organsiational half or will the sim be not smart enough for that and keep whoever moves to Hooker as the organiser.

    I would expect this be crucial for a few teams who have running bench hookers like Wing and other guys.

    Guess I'll need...

    Barrett, ???, ???, Jennings, Gordon on creative side will have to look into more for the second row and forward though.

    Yeah, you can change your primary organiser at the time of any interchange.

    You'll name each of your interchanges as something like this:

    25,10,14,7,13,13

    That means that at the 25 minute mark, number 10 swaps positions with number 14, number 7 is your primary organiser, number 13 will go into the halves if one of them is playing the ball, and number 13 will go into dummy half if your hooker is playing the ball.

    So Monaghan would stay as #9 throughout the entire game, even when he was playing halfback.. so you'd just leave the primary organiser as 9 at every interchange if you wanted to leave it as Monaghan.

    Does the sim take into account fatigued defenders and increase the effectiveness of players like Wing btw? I hope so:p
     
  9. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Haha, yeah.

    Would Cronk-Moi Moi-Crocker-Gasnier-Gardner be any good?
     
  11. Lukic L Popovic

    Cronk kills it tbh, he's gonna have 0 creative and organziing
     
  12. Flack SA Flack

    Barrett, ???, Taylor, Jennings, Gordon will work a treat, IMO.

    Walsh, Stuart, Hoffman, Idris, Turner on the other side.
     
  13. Cribbage RG Cribb

    I would definitely swap Hoffman and Taylor. Taylor makes huge metres running wide, Hoffman's more of a hole-runner.
     
  14. Flack SA Flack

    Taylor showed a bit of skills and creativity in the back end of the year, I see Hoffman as more of a worker than that.
     
  15. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Yeah, second rowers don't actually create much on the creative side of the field though; they just run into holes created by the men inside them.
     
  16. Speirz DG Speirs

    5. James McManus
    4. Steven Bell
    12. Craig Fitzgibbon
    7. Ben Hornby
    10. Matthew Scott

    2. Jharal Yow Yeh
    3. Joel Monaghan
    11. Steve Simpson
    6. Jarrod Mullen
    8. Jeff Lima

    Looks decent for organising and attack, along with solid defence all over.
     
  17. Magic AJ Parker

    Justin Poore
    Scott Prince
    Anthony Watmough
    Colin Best
    Nathan Merritt

    Prince will be our chief organiser most likely yet he's a much more creative half than Wallace imo... kind of hard which side to put him on then...
     
  18. Benny BS Read

    Yeah toughie, I'd try and trade Wallace to a team who needs an organising half for a creative one.

    2. David Milne
    3. Adam Mogg
    11. Ashton Sims
    6. Michael Dobson
    8. Nick Kenny



    **** that is awesome, especially with Ashley Harrison and Josh Dugan chiming in on both sides.
     
  20. GYR DW Lewis

    I do rate your first side. The other one not so much.
