NRLCEO 2012 - The GH Cup

Can't believe the Dynamites are in turmoil, the Dugans walking out is a disgrace.

It is with great regret that the board of "Smokin Aces" has terminated the inaugural CEO of our club. Understandably he is too distraught to make any comments at the moment. The decision is based on the lack of knowledge with the drafting system and more so the club does not have logo and Jersey in place. A replacement has not been found, as the season has yet to kick off. The board will look to find a replacement in the coming weeks, preferably before the season kick off

On a lighter note, I would like to introduce the first ever 'Smokin Aces" squad.

Coach: KGB

Peter Wallace
Ben Barbar
Ben Hannant
Jamal Idris
Daly Cherry-Evans
Greg Eastwood
Aaron Payne
Trent Merrin
Joel Reddy
Wes Naiqama

Chris Sandow
Nathan Merritt
Shaun Fensom
Terry Campese
Shaun Kenny-Dowell
Ryan Hinchcliffe
Beau Ryan
Brice Gibbs

Plenty of Work Horse forwards.

That was the idea. Stats based forwards to produce consistent tries, 2 main dominant halves with only fill in back ups and outside backs that aren't necessarily that good, and try scorers, but more importantly play for decent teams.

I went into the round planning to choose Hayne, but at the last moment decided to get Dugan.
When I realised what I'd done to Dugan's Dynamites I cracked up

Raidersrawesome · Post by **Raidersrawesome** » February 8, 2012, 9:35 pm

I couldn't risk him as 1st pick , I was aiming for him as my 3rd.

SirMcSquid · Post by **SirMcSquid** » February 8, 2012, 10:01 pm

Yeah fair enough. It's difficult to plan a team if you don't get the kickers you want at the start.

SirMcSquid · Post by **SirMcSquid** » February 8, 2012, 10:02 pm

There's a lot of good sides, should be a close comp.!

Looks alright Jason, I was trying to get Croker but it wouldn't draft him for some reason.

Might have had too many kickers or centres

I reckon this side will jag a couple of wins, especially around origin time.

How many terminations can we make in a season, i think I have some discipline issues in my squad.

SirMcSquid · Post by **SirMcSquid** » February 10, 2012, 2:25 pm

Haha
There's 50 in the other comp. so I reckon it'd be the same in this one.
I think NQR said he can raise it if need be.

Raidersrawesome · Post by **Raidersrawesome** » February 10, 2012, 2:27 pm

Yeah it's 50 , but send NQR a paper brown bag and he can change

89 Raiders have finally announced their team for round 1. Coach Furner is looking to get a few early round wins in to avoid being sacked. He has been coach since 89 and hasn't one a premiership since 1994. Heads will roll if he doesn't get an early win against the lowly The Rivers as his son David is anxiously waiting in the wings to take over the role.

I know, I got lucky with this team. Still have Hayne and some others on the sidelines as well.
Optimistic HDB will get promoted.

Wait a minute... if we're doing promotion/relegation. I could possibly field 2 teams in the championship next season if my B side goes up and the A side goes down... Not that the A side will go down mind you

Is it too early for trash talking?

Or do I just sit tight till the round ends.. 83 points with a couple of games to go..

Raidersrawesome · Post by **Raidersrawesome** » March 4, 2012, 9:52 am

Trash away but anything is possible , you might get it served back double if your team dies at the death. : )

Presuming 105 isn't a bad score to start the season?

Great score.
