The day has arrived. Its time to draw back the curtain on your team. The product of all your analysis, re-analysis and in the end over-analysis over these last 6 weeks.
My boys, The Maulers, had their guernsey presentation last night at Crown. It was a very muted affair with a lot of water being drunk as I droned on about the need to focus, the pride they need to take in the jumper, the players who have gone before them, and the burning desire for success that I expected all of them to have.
I think we’ve answered every question related to team selection possible but I’m sure there will be more to come today. Post ‘em in here.
Oh, and one last thing before tonight….GO YOU MIGHTY BLUE BOYS!!!!

Carrazzo is the only one I’d question there, Scratcher. If he plays a tagging role it will negatively affect his numbers. And Lord knows the Blues have enough midfielders.

I feel I need to take a break from here today, every time I do I make a change and then think was that right thing and then I’ll read something and my mind changes again… good side selected though it’ll be on like Donkey Kong tonight!!
Footy is back, what a great day of the year! If you truly want to see grown men excited then this is the day.

Team is all sorted (barring injuries of course).
Stuck on my 4th fwd though. Still deciding between Roberts for Richmond and Hitchcock for Port. I know Roberts is playing tonight so I’m swinging towards him more. Does anyone have a preference and which one do you feel will play more?
Good luck everyone!

Neither should really be on your field, Cam. I still think the only starting spot a rookie should be playing in is in your midfield. Having said that, if you’re team is locked down then I’d pick Pods.

in that case then should i downgrade cooney to say masten or dangerfield to upgrade the forwards? i think my team is fairly settled but i wanna make sure my team can be as good as it can be…
Like or Dislike:

OK there’s a few things you could do here, Cam. Let me put 2 options to you:
1) downgrade to Mitch Robinson – yes its a risk because he’s been a little inconsistent in the past but his preseason was great and he looks set for a big one. That then gives you ~$210k to upgrade your last forward spot which should buy you something nice. (I don’t know about Dangerfield tho’ – certainly didn’t impress me in the NAB series).
2) go another rook in the midfield. Yes this is probably even riskier but you’ve got to have a crack sometimes to separate yourself from the pack. Trengove or Scully are going to play all year (if you haven’t already got him though I’d take T over S). You’ll get a higher value gain on a midfielder than a rookie forward given the amount of possessions they are more likely to get which sets you up better for the future. And you’ll be able to pick up an even better forward with the extra $ you pick up from the middle downgrade. Does this make sense?

Motts what are your thoughts on Ben Nason at Tigerland? Cheap @ 90 odd k and he got named for his debut tonight, though there are a few peeps who think he wont stick in the seniors for that long. Still, I cant see Hardwick dropping him after one game unless he’s shocking…could be a good cashcow ahead of Rd 4?

emg: maguire, nason
mid: ablett (c), selwood, harvey, ball, trengrove, martin

fwd: riewoldt, o’keefe, gray, hall, dangerfield, ziebell, rockliff
emg: gumbleton, podsiably
i’ll admit it’s probably a risky team (and subject to change a little with teams announced later today). my main concerns are rockliff/pods/gumbleton as a playing rookie in the fwd and hunt/ladson as two roughies in the backline. i *think* i’m happy with my midfield and ruck selections.
mcveigh is there to swap for trengrove/martin after his suspension.

DAMN, both my forward bench players -Pods & Rockliff are named as emergencies…think I might have to draft in R. Roberts after all. Or Andrew Moore whose been named for Port, #9 in the draft. Does anybody have any mail on Moore? I’m fairly sure he is from the Eastern Ranges.

OK, final selection dilema:
Trengrove from Melb, or Morabitto from Freo?
Otherwise team looks settled with only L Franklin not actually scoring.

should probably go with trengrove as he as been selected and will play every game baring injury.
