Trying to do some calcs at the moment to assign values to players to run a 'Supercoach' style competition. I'll post up values as I make progress. Should be interesting to see who the top players are by value and whether this would be different to the expected. I'll include reserves games but weight scores at (initially) 70%
Hmmm. Relatively tricky to do this. First draft: Code: Benny Read $577,322.33 Ginger Furball $493,746.92 Ed Ames $491,336.96 Bobby Blunder $434,685.12 Heath Davis $434,091.67 Siege Morgan $386,448.12 James McDougal $378,561.63 Lucas Schaw $370,415.30 Aaron Hunt $366,457.04 Ben Manera $364,006.60 Sam Bakkum $357,004.43 Rob Cribb $356,158.43 Gareth Weaver $353,496.68 Samuel Yates $343,284.91 John Heads $342,886.30 Jason Denton $336,760.01 Jake Howe $330,765.39 Eddie Morris $323,068.74 Regan Hutchinson $320,850.01 Aaron O'Neill $319,799.38 Geraint Martyn $311,111.37 Cobra Classified $297,511.96 Dion Alessi $294,609.15 Callum Laing $275,858.95 Chuck Faldo $272,456.39 Morgan Burridge $264,978.26 Sam Graham $258,202.03 Okoudou Gbagbo $255,752.45 Bruce Force $250,761.56 Simon Laing $250,367.32 Andrew James $249,472.66 Steve Cambridge $245,910.26 Marcuss Deane $238,697.51 Brett Gemmell $238,196.01 Leumas Himann $237,347.50 Ben Herd $236,601.17 Tom Delonge $231,884.01 Jonty Rhodes $229,700.31 Shane Masters $226,833.54 Os du Toit $225,793.30 Sam Verigotta $224,200.91 Matt Dorn $223,345.18 Michael Chung $223,203.69 Damien Taylor $216,919.17 Ivan Ryabovol $216,283.67 Chris Raftery $212,716.72 Zinzan Brumby $204,411.02 Donald Boland $196,983.23 Chris Warrington $194,457.20 Dirk Diggler $193,498.18 Alan Izett $191,258.61 Chad Dyer $190,562.24 Gunner Shriram $185,858.17 Wes Welker $181,007.58 Alistair Son $176,875.35 Mate Perry $176,798.28 Niru Gurupur $174,573.80 Simon Humble $172,739.75 League Lover $170,735.34 Clayton Evans $170,615.74 Geoff Smith $170,350.05 James Hughes $170,202.56 Matthew Scoble $167,291.63 Ben Hornby $160,552.52 Zac MacDonald $159,965.95 Sam Green $155,348.02 Daniel Speirs $149,867.92 Dave Eggman $144,349.56 Jordan Logan $140,358.49 Ben Taylor $137,628.09 JD Hurricane $134,533.80 Jonny Ridd $132,606.35 Jono Chewie $131,507.25 Luke Pilgrim $130,066.82 Chris Devonshire $128,704.13 Dan Wayne $127,607.25 Luke Popovic $122,995.51 Choco Man $122,478.85 Ben Jacobs $120,595.10 Double Dong $118,723.03 Michael Edwards $113,022.88 Herr Burger $111,563.01 Paddy Orr $109,195.35 Ben Storer $107,702.38 John Anraad $105,264.88 Jack Dempsey $103,233.63 Kelvin Fung $102,010.09 DJ Edwards $100,796.13 Tom Clough $100,476.22 However, this assumes a "didn't play" equals a zero which isn't right. Also, this is only for SRC games at the moment, doesn't include reserves.
Looks fairly good, a few that seem a bit off but that's probably due to the aforementioned 'didn't play' thingo.
Yeah, those who got injured are hit. So, Cribb, myself, yourself for example would all be too low. Those players usually get a double hit, as if you were injured in-game then you cop a low score followed by a zero.

Hmmm. Now penalising those who often play ~20 minute games for the prems. Might have to combine into a weekly score, but this may overvalue reserves points.
Well, they should be because they score massive points in reserves. I can adjust that down by decreasing the 70% weighting for reserves, but they'll still be reasonably high up.
Well yeah I get that. Just I find it amusing that the 4th and 7th most valuable players haven't posted all season nor signed contracts
Are the values meant to be related to point scoring or is it a effectively a measure of how valuable each player is?
So, you'd have to select 15, plus a sub for each of prop, hooker, lock, back row, half back, first five, wing, centre and full back (9 subs) for 24 players in total. Perhaps $5m to spend. So, you have to pick not only the players which will score highly, but those you think have some value to be released in them. For example: Code: 1. Clayton Evans $204,941 2. Alan Izett $191,259 3. Jonty Rhodes $229,700 4. Heath Davis $437,494 5. Donald Boland $196,983 6. JD Hurricane $258,295 7. Charlie Downes $212,341 8. Zinzan Brumby $212,774 9. Rob Cribb $391,952 10. Chad Dyer $216,276 11. Jordan Logan $144,454 12. Gunner Shriram $220,034 13. Geoff Smith $231,540 14. Matt Dorn $223,345 15. Sticky Phlegm $219,375 Prop Sub: Isaac Dipper $99,999 Hooker Sub: Soft Steel $99,999 Lock Sub: James Torres $99,999 Back Row Sub: Pretzel Spark $206,648 Half Back Sub: Luke Pilgrim $137,216 First Five Sub: Matt Scoble $176,220 Wing Sub: Chris Warrington $194,457 Centre Sub: Haydos Bots $99,999 Full Back: Ether Starris $175,829 Total: $4,881,129
Ah! But think of all that locked up value in your player. Which is why I've picked you in my indicative line-up. AFL supercoach lets you pick a utility player in any of their available positions, even if they don't play there. I think I would allow you to select players in a position if they had, say >20% of their rego allocated to that position (just to set some criteria around it).
