Its so close you can taste it. Have you thought about a strategy yet? Maybe you’ve got a player or two in mind?
Throw your team in here and let the punters critique it.
Believe me, they know what they’re talking about.

Don’t know if I’m allowed to do this MR but I am anyway. I found this over at DTT. I thought it might amuse.
‘Twas the night before Dreamteam, when all through the house
Not a creature was clicking, not even a mouse;
The excel spread sheets were researched with care,
In hopes that Dream team would soon be there;
The coaches were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of 100’s danced in their heads;
And donuts in bye weeks, and the salary cap,
And big Sandi’s just racked up his 100th tap.
Dreaming of watching the fan footy scores,
seeing plus 3’s and plus 6’s and golden plus 4’s.
When suddenly outside a noise could be heard
I jumped up to peer out at what was that stirred.
The moon shone through on the new-fallen snow
gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below,
when, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
I saw visions; my car winning team did appear.
With a forgotten key forward, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
More rapid than Juddythe rest they did come,
and he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;
“Now, Cyril! Now, Jelwood! Now, Swanny and Barlow!
On, Luey! On Martin! On, Zaka and Trengove!
To the top of the list! To the top of the league!
Now dash away! Dash away! Take home that car!”
And then, in a twinkling, I saw my future again
my captain got injured, my cash cow got banned.
As I drew in my breath, and was turning around,
Saw the same old story, as last year coming around.
Petrie was layed up, something up with his arm,
andbuddy was rubbed out, he refused to disarm
A bundle of mid pricers stunk up my team,
Will I learn this time, From this foretold night dream?
Guns and rookies must be the only way,
Mid pricers will come at you don’t hear what they say.
If you think you can find the guy ripe to break out,
He’ll stink up and stuff you beginning the rout.
I woke that morning and Dream team was here,
I sat there all eager and cracked open a beer;
This time will be different, I’ll learn mistakes made
Who am I kidding, I already want to trade……..

I’ve missed you PA
Considering there are over 500 players overall to choose from that cuts it down a bit, especially for any first time punters or for time-poor people who just want to cut to the chase.
But wait, that’s not all. The numbers in brackets suggest a number of players to select from any given category. So, if you follow this, you’ll end up with a solid Guns n Rookies strategy with a few gap fillers to make your team flexible and affordable and still have the odd POD.

2. Do you need Coniglio and Wingard in the one team? Only if they are both brilliant in the NAB. Best to downgrade at least one for a cheaper rookie.
3. I think you need Giles in the ruck
4. Which Roo? Be very careful of JRoo in particular I do not fancy the Tigers draw for the first 10 which could spell trouble for forward scores.
5. I do not think Pattinson will play

Big punt there Jester with the both the old men limping around your forward line. Even with a good NAB Cup are they going to last the year.
Brown is tempting and I think having most of last year off would have done his body good. With the young Teddy Bears looking at a bit of a resurgence this year the kids might just put an extra spark in the Old Brown Dog’s legs. If he is fit he should get better service than has received over the last couple of years as well.
Personally I’m staying well away from the Llama though. Dodging strings and dodgy knees don’t bode well. Tough year ahead for the Saints too.

Cookie cutter
Meaning
Originally, a utensil for cutting shaped pieces out of dough. More recently, characterising a lack of originality.
Origin
The phrase ‘cookie cutter’, which is intended to epitomise a conformist attitude, lacking in originality, is of fairly recent American origin. An early example of its use in print comes from The Chicago Sunday Tribune, February 1922:
“There are always ‘cookie cutter’ tendencies among us. One of these this year is the caracul trimmed coat which every other woman in New York wears.”

I’d use some of that money you’ve got left to upgrade your ruck-
* Salary Cap + Kreuz= $574, 300 –> Nic Nat -$508, 800 = BAL $65, 500
* Salary Cap + Kreuz= $574, 300 –> Roughead $550, 000= BAL $24, 300
* Salary Cap + Kreuz= $574, 300 and downgrade Tomlinson in your defence, say + $40k = $614, 300 –> Goldstein or Sandilands

I like his ruck set up. The only one I’d really want to swap Kruez for is McEvoy.
There are too many question marks surrounding Massive/211/Nic Nat/Mummy/Goldstein & McIntosh to take the risk.
Trading out Tomlinson means losing his D/F DPP link with Smedts.
I’d be taking Beams before Steele.
Probably better options than Siera up back.

Priddis is a must have not POD. Like Gibbs he ALWAYS plays, in fact last year he did not miss a game & did not score below 80, that is SC gold. Expect him to average 110+ this year, on top of him being a great chance to play all 22 games. Lock

I never said that he was/wasn’t a must have in anyone’s team. I said that he is not in most midfield’s that I have read so far. Thus my comment about him being a p.o.d.
If you think he is a lock that’s your opinion and you are welcome to it.
My opinion is that Pendlebury/Ablett are locks with Swan/Murphy being not far behind and Dal being just behind them. Barlow becomes a lock if he fires up in the NAB.
I have Priddis/Judd/Boyd/Rockliff & Mitchell just behind Dal. All are premium’s, though none of them are ‘locks’ i.m.o.

my advice would be to trade early, so that you can upgrade your team asap, and reap the benefits earlier, even if it means you don;t maximise the amount of cash you get from your cash cows. there is no point saving your trades for the end of the year because by then everyone who started trading earlier will be averaging 100-200 points per round more than you
And like me, you sound reluctant to do sideways trades but pulling the trigger early can save you many more points than if you kept the trade for later. example Alan Didak last year,
as for your team I cant fault the premiums you have selected, they are all proven performers, however maybe try and get some really cheap midfield rookies so that you could turn squeeze another gun into your backline, or upgrade christensen to fyfe

Thanks zaharaharakis.
Last year had a trigger finger on trades and burned them early.
was waiting too see how Fyfe recovers from surgery.
The rookies I have chosen are pricey, and were chosen based on probabliity of being ready for rd 1. Am happy to revise. Looking forward to NAB cup to see how things pan out.
Mid rookies still considering Woodward(Hawks), Mitchell (Syd), Horsely(GC), Shiel (GWS).

Backline: Don’t rate Touey in a SC sense, I’d be downgrading him to a rookie… Astbury maybe? Lake is very risky, I’m waiting to see his NAB cup preformances. Karmichael is more than an interesting choice too… Best of luck with that.
Mids: Solid. I personally wouldn’t have Gaff (second year blues looming), downgrading him to a rookie would be a good move IMO. Tom Mitchell perhaps. Good luck with Bastinac. Can see how you’d justify it, will be a massive POD for you.
Rucks: Set and forget. Nice.
Forwards: Very Ballsy with Voldt, Brown and Winderlich… Would get rid of one of them, probably Jason… I also doubt Gunstons gametime and scoring potential… Maybe upgrade him with the cash you’ve got from downgrading Gaff… Or Downgrade him and upgrade Gaff.
Hope I helped, good luck mate.

jeeebus a late one for me, again. Least I got some housework done. Only started looking at my SC team at 1am. Where is that elusive “me time” hiding?? ok anyway my team is as follows (at this very early stage):
NEW-SAINTSATIONS
Backs: Deledio, Shaw, Fisher, Dochety, Mohr, Smedts, Darley.
Inter: Winmar/Redpath
MIds: G.Ablett-V/C, Goddard CAPT, Hodge, Montagna, Barlow, (Christensen-didn’t realise he was a fwd/c- yay! *SOLD*)
Inter: Sumner/K. Stevens
Rucks: Mumford, McEvoy
Inter: Giles, Stephensen
FWD: Franklin, R’OK, A.Walker, J. Brown, A. Siposs, Tomlinson, Zorko
Inter: Cameron, Walsh (hope he plays well this year, good luck to him!)
in the bank? $17, 600.
I think Siposs is expensive considering how many games he played last year, but I think he will improve greatly this year so I’m taking a punt!
g’night all -slightly weary!

I know there are too many midpricers in the midfield, but i dont know who to upgrade, im feeling this is boaks season, breakout is looming.
Also im thinking swapping mohr for docherty or lee spurr. Any thoughts?

I fell for that ‘Boak breakout year thing’ last year. This year I am a year wiser and am avoiding Boak, which means, that Boak will definitely have a break out season THIS YEAR.

Hey Stev, a few points:
- Seems to be a lot of mid-pricers. Maybe look at getting rid of two and putting in 1 premium and 1 rookie. i.e. Lake and Russell out for Delidio and a rookie. Too much $$ to be made from good rookies at the start of the year. We’ll get a clearer view as to who are the best rookie options when NAB Cup begins.
- I’m a big believer in set and forget rucks. For that you need premium ruckmen. HMac and Nic Nat are great players, but not proven SC guns. I’d look at trying to squeeze in Sandi or Mumford.
- Forwards are good, not sure on Didak but who knows how he’ll go. I like the multiple c/f players you have.
- Make sure you get J Giles in the ruck as a rookie. I think he’ll be one of the most picked players this year for good reason. Basement price and will be doing the majority of the ruck work for GWS.
Hope this helps!

As you can see, I’m leaving a bit in the bank for later use. I’m going all G’n'R, no mid pricers. And in the midfield I’m staying with the popular ones who will get me the points no matter what, and getting the POD’s when I see what they can do. Haven’t done much work into this team but thought I would get one up.
Thanks guys

You need 1 more defender & forward gun.
If you want to run the 1/3 ruck strategy then your premium should be more reliable than Mummy. Look @ Louie or McEvoy.
Jordan Roughead?? Am I missing something here?
Track Rowe’s, Morabito’s & Fyfe’s fitness
Is Winmar & Siera likely to play senior footy in the early rounds this year?
My gut says probably not, but, they may impress enough in the NAB Cup to warrant selection.
Have you factored byes into your team selection?

Yep. JPK has some pretty big wraps on him in swan land. A clearance king, suits our style of play. Not sure I’d have him this year though. At a pretty awkward price range where proven scores like Barlow and Hayes could be selected for a similar price. Can’t see him pushin to top 10-15 mids this year which is what you want for that price. My tip would be that he maintains his average this year, then goes bang next season

Fyfe’s shoulders worry me, as does his roll with Lyon at the helms. As for Pav, you always know he’s going to deliver. So durable. Should be back to playing as a key forward which spells big points in an improving Fremantle side. I’m going with Pav ATM.

There’s a lot of talk about Pav moving to more of a permanent forward role. Personally that rings big warning bells. Might kick a few extra goals but will lose a lot of points not being on the ball.
As long as Fyfe doesn’t have any hiccups from now until RD 1 and looks 100% in the NAB he’ll be in my starting line up and cranking the average up to 120.

I can see that my mids are not as strong as others but I don’t think that I have as many rookies as they do to then try and bridge the gaps to a premium. It will be easier to upgrade Lake, Bastinac, West, Brown and Winders to a premy rather than starting from pure rookie $$. I do expect the players mentioned above to score better than they did last year providing they stay healthy.
I will change this at least 5-10 times after NAB but until then there is little or no point.

Brandon Ellis is a great pick down back. A round 1 start is on the cards. Marty Clarke, Nathan Blee and Beau Wilkes all look solid. Keep an eye out on Tim Mohr.
As for the forward rookies, I’m a huge fan of Adam Treloar. He is all class. Zorko looks ripe for a round 1 start and Tommy Walsh could be a revalation up forward for the Swannies. Plenty of options, Stoney. Watch the NC closely.

Gutsy team, Nickroo! The biggest concern is that you only have one bonafide premium in your foward line (Buddy). You need to add 1 or more premiums into your forward line.
I would stay away from Dylan Grimes, the Tiges have earmarked him for a KPP role, which means low scores. I like Yarren has a unique pick.
Hmac and Sandi have durability clouds over them. Perhaps go for the Berger or McEvoy. Mids look solid, Basty my only concern. Could pay off though.

I wouldn’t get Ballantyne, Brown is probably better choice or anyone else. Apart from that some possible PODs with Bastinac and Sidebottom that have had the possibility to step it up to become good supercoach scorers. And definantly wouldn’t have Daw he is rookie listed and probably won’t play start of season and will only get games when either Goldstein, McIntosh get a season ending injury which is unlikely. Yes he is a good player but he isn’t on there list to even play at the moment. Also fyfe has injure concerns def an upgrade target of mine later in season best to go with Pav.

I initially tried to get a 10/10/10 balance in Prems, Mids & Rookies, but in the end I have tried to get balance in the bye rounds. I can cover the outs by using swingers, and a trade or two, by converting cash cows into guns. My concerns are Fyfe and Carazzo who are there for the swinging ability not nescessarily the best in their positions.
Any comments greatfully received.

Backline is full of injury concerns with Johncock, Grimes and Lake I would take one maybe two of them and upgrade the others to Broughton or Scotland. Choose which of them to keep when watching the NAB cup. I wouldn’t have Winderlich he’s hardly in the best 22 at Essendon let alone a good supercoach scorer. Maybe upgrade him to Brown who is having a massive preseason.

G’n'R stratergy with only Brown the concern. I count 14 players that will stay in my team throughout the year, and possible 1 more with Brown. That means I only need to upgrade 7 players to get the team I want.
Two defenders, three midfielders, and two/three forwards, which means I should use approximately 14-18 trades to do that leaving me with 6 trades to cover injuries and other problems that arise.

Chappy is getting old prob look at someone else. And get Franklin and get rid of Goodes. Goodes is always a good upgrade target midyear as he always has slow starts but finishes strong, if you keep him he will still get pretty good scores.
Also Patton is injured prob won’t play for at least half the year maybe go with Brown. Fyfe has injury concerns maybe go with the proven performer of Pav. Everything else is good.

HGL’s mind is changing on the porpoise despite the multiple burnings that he has received by foolishly placing too much faith in Adelaide ‘guns’ like Dangerfield & Tip Rat, not too mention Taylor bloody Walker.

Some thoughts line by line …
D: Is Lake the Adcock of 2012? Not sure.
M: I think there is better value than Boyd
R: Risky strategy esecially if Rowe’s injury drags on. Keep an eye on the injuries at Port, they may be forced to play a rookie ruck.
F: IF both Sbottom and Christensen fire you are laughing.

I’m not so sure about Zaharakis – his dodgy knees and interrupted preseason might affect his scoring. I think Sidebottom and even Dangerfield are better forward options at that price.

Your structure is sound enough, you’ll obviously tweak it after the NAB Cup/practice matches.
LIKE your def line & I have recently abandoned a 1/3 ruck strategy in favour of a more conservative 1/1/2–Louie/Kruezer/Giles/The Big O–my logic being that I (theoretically) will have 2 rucks available throughout the byes at all times.
You may want to consider your bye splits and whether this team conforms to your bye strategy.

Just negotiated lower performance targets at work due to super coach commitments.
Anyway, here is my initial team. Any comments would be appreciated. You may notice a trend that starts with D and ends in PP.
Backs – Goddard (mid), Deledio (Mid), Heppell, M. Johnson (Fwd) Guthrie, Docherty, Mohr, (S) J. Ferguson (Fwd), T. Curran (Fwd)
Mids – GAJ, Swan, Selwood, I. Smith, Christensen (Fwd), Coniglio, (S) D. Pfeiffer (Fwd), B. Harvey (Def)
Rucks – COX, Sandipants, (S) Rowe (Fwd), Big Oren
Forwards – Buddy, Fyfe (Mid), D.Martin (Mid), Butcher, Tomlinson (Def), Saad, Treloar (Mid) (S) Zorko (Mid), Smedts (def).
Obviously there is some work to do on the team. There is 52 days to go, so I will probably make about 495 changes. Any comments on the existing team would be appreciated.

Not Pav. Goodes is getting old, but can still pull out big scores but a little inconsistently. Fyfe is still young so we don’t know exactly how he is going to perform week in week out. He also has a bit of a shoulder injury. Johnson is a bit like Goodes. Getting a bit older. Can pull out huge scores but sometimes down in the 50-70 mark.
In my mind I would go Goodes or Fyfe.

Pavlova!
Personally steering clear of Swan premiums because of there finals run, (Collingwood, WB, Hawthorn and Geelong. Ouch!) so that rules Goodes out for me.
Fyfe’s shoulders are concerning, and until I see him play a few NAB cup games I’m steering clear.
Johnson barley ever plays 22 games and is mighty inconsistent… Ageing body doesn’t help the way he plays football either.
Pav is so consistent (averages of 111, 108,115, 110, 99, 99 and 105 over the last 7 years) and surely once again he’s going to average 100+.

then the doggies…he avg’s 131 against them.
goodes is a proven keeper/gun
everyone is hoping martin takes his game to new a level…in theory he may, but he may not…then you have to make a decision on whether to trade him or hold on and hope he finds form etc etc

Worries: Weak forward line. Went with untested ruck combo to reinforce mid and backs. Some double up in teams and possies which could be detrimental in bye rounds (but hoping to offload some money makers before then)

Get rid of Varcoe way too inconsistent. And I worry with Goldstein due to McIntosh return surely that will effect his scoring ability.

Thank guys.
My other option was McEvoy and and Kreuzer, with Big O and Witts on bench, but will have to subsidise in mid and backs.
Yea, I thought varcoe was a bit inconsisten, any suggestions…was thinking dids, but once again, price is a factor

Dids might be worth the risk just keep an eye on him in NAB and see whats Bucks does with him coz he may go for young blood and weed out Dids. Otherwise get J Brown should kill it with a full preseason under his belt.
And yep those rucks are good maybe Giles instead of Witts coz it seems like Giles will play most weeks.
Try get Goodes in your forward line and get rid of Harlett for Barlow you know Barlow can get some really good scores while Port are just hopeless.

Having Cooney and Lake in the same side is risky, but could pay off if both fire. I wouldnt take either to be honest.
Otherwise looks fairly well balanced. Good mix of premiums and rookies and well spread across the field.

Be gentle….Overriding “plan” for this year is versatility. Have blown too many trades too early in my last two years and then run out of ooompff at the gravy stroke. What I am after is a side that can be set and forgot for at least the first few weeks prior to tampering thus the plethora of DPP(the Chinese finger trap will also help. Rookies will be NAB dependant

You’ll need to put one of either Dochety/Goddard/Deledio/Burg into your mids so they can swap with your defence- you’ve got ‘em all in your defence. Or put two of these guys into your mids because then they can both swap. Or just BJ into your mids because he’s better than all of the rest of the other 3… haha
though I do like your midfield options! tasty! that said I haven’t looked into who’s having the byes and when for those players.

Not a bad team. I would probably take out Lake and trade him for Billie Smedts from Geelong. I would also trade Phil Davis, he has some shoulder problems which will hinder him. Sidebottm is a concern but it’s a risk you could be willing to take
Overall a pretty good team, just needs a little bit of tweaking

the game plan is a mixture of prems surrounded by rookies and blokes who I feel will be worth more then what they are now, either from coming back through injury whatever.

Rioli has bad hammies wouldn’t trust them. Chappy the same and getting old. Grimes also injury prone but probably the only one I would risk having in my team. The hammies constantly cause problems. Don’t know who Campbell is but Giles is sure to play most weeks.

Hows everybody going?
There are a few players i am considering and i would love to hear your thoughts on them if thats possible.
Kieran Jack- about 430k
Always loved him as a player, my favourite player outside of my beloved bombers. But very cheap and still young. I think he is suited to SC because of his contested possesions. I wonder if he will be used as a tagger or not, anyone hear any news on his role for this year?
Jason Winderlich- 302,000k
Cheap for a guy that used to average high 90′s, maybe the injury could stunt his scoring capabilities or maybe he could get back to his best?
Watson- 574,000k
Steve Johnson- 581,000k
Thanks guys, your help would be priceless!

G’day mate.
Haven’t heard much at all about Jack since last season. You’d have to watch NAB.
I’ve currently got Winderlich as well, thinking he’s a good pick up this year.
Watson might be a bit expensive and I think there’s better players around his price.
Stevie J is a good choice for your 2nd or 3rd Premium in your forward line.

Different Tactic here, so give me feed back.
Decided to load up on backs and forwards as they are less likely to have cash cows where as all the money is in the midfield. So have have only picked a couple of guns in midfield for captains roll and then just loaded up.

You could do with 1 more mid prem. Swan or Penders.
Alternatively, you may get Barlow instead and use the rest of your cash to upgrade Lake into Heater, Suckling or someone of that ilk.
If you can’t go prem, then look @ Grimes, who admittedly, has durability issues.

It seems like you have a set and forget midfield personally don’t like it. Yes thats where you get the most points but i think you should get two rookies in there and upgrade one ruck and one defender. Reason why is because midfield rookies can be the best rookies gaing the most points and increasing in price the fastest ie Curnow, Libba and a few others (Barlow). Whereas forward and back rookies don’t increase in price as fast or get those good scores.
My plan is to start with three rookies in midfield (yes probably a bit light) but after a couple rounds il jump on those rookies that are going to sky rocket and get me a good amount of money plus get me good scores 90+ points. Now there may not be any good midfield rookies but you never know.

Yeah you make some good points Jimbo , I do think 13 rookies are enough . plus i wanted to set my midfield up from the get go , and to sacrifice my ruck to get a jammed pack midfield is a price i willing to pay . It all could change before round 1 .

Backline full of injury concerns (Lake, Grimes and Drummond) especially Drummond. Dump one or two. Prob best risk might be Grimes but im not getting him.
Probably better choices out there besides Folau.
Also weak ruck setup but each to there own could work just fine.

It’s probably a bit too hard to have an informed opinion at this point – wait until the pre-season games start and we get to see how and where McDonald is used. Coniglio will play and play on the ball, but McDonald is much cheaper and has experience on his side. It really will depend on how the Giants use McDonald – if they are using him off the bench in short bursts or tucking him into a fwd/back pocket then go with Coniglio. If they are using him in a more productive role, go for him.

UPSIDE: When has played he’s scored over 90 in 17 of his 31 career games (yes he is captain after only 31 career games) and has a career average of 86.6.

G’day fellas, any feedback at all would be appreciated, bit unsure on a fair few areas.
Backs: Deledio, H Shaw, Carrazzo, Grimes, Malceski, Suban, Clarke (Morris, Schade)
Mids: Ablett (Capt), Swan (V/Capt), Mitchell, Selwood, Wingard, James McDonald (Shiel, T Mitchell)
Rucks: Sandi, Stephenson (Giles, Daw)
Forwards: Buddy, Martin, Robinson, McGlynn, Winderlich, Porplyzia, Saad (Walsh, A Hall)
Obviously taking a bit of a risk with Stephenson on the ground in the ruck, but he will play, and at 29, having been a gun in the VFL for a few years should score ok from the get-go. Willing to lose 50-60 points here to gain 150 from around the ground with more cash. Not sure about Malceski, Winderlich or the porpoise either.

Unless their name is Fyfe or Selwood or Dustin Martin or Tom Rockcliff or Scott Pendlebury. Essentially if a player is shit, don’t put them in your team in their second year (but I’m gonna go further now – if a player is shit, don’t EVER put them in your team, whether it’s their 2nd OR their 6th year) !!

Anyway – who are you talking about ? Smedts and Duigan ? Seriously ? Smedts at base price and injured all of last year and is an absolute gun. You must have meant only Duigan – fair enough, he might not dramatically improve, but I know a lot about football and I wouldn’t be saying Duigan is a certainty not to improve a lot from last year … you’re REALLY going out on a limb there. Even if Duigan stayed at his current level, he would still be OK – a safe if uninspired choice.

And if you’re thinking that David Swallow is not in the league of the aforementioned superstars (especially with the advantage of training and playing seniors an extra year in the AFL system) I think you’re wrong … I would agree that H. Bennell is a crap choice (but that’s not because he is a 2nd year player, it’s because he is a crap choice). I wouldn’t choose J Darling myself, but nor would I be surprised if he made me eat those words by the end of the season, and S Reid is just … OK … you’ve won me over BEAS – I should have looked at the WHOLE team before my drunken rant.
I SAID that good 2nd year players are fine, but Reid and Darling and Bennell ?? They’re not CRAP players, but give them some time, let’s say that second year MIDFIELDERS are fine (even if they are listed as forwards) – which is NOT an excuse to ask about Luke Tapscott as a back !!…

with all reports coming through it seems that sizzle needs to be considered. So in light of that I now have a dillema.
Dayne Beams or Cyril Rioli
further to that I am also tossing up between
Jobe Watson and Joel Selwood.
I feel that Watson was well on his way to a Brownlow last year till he did his hammies and his average was as good as any others till he did it but…well….Joelwood.
Come on SC world, give me a little advice here.

If only it was that easy. Love Sizzle and all advice points to a very good pre season and a lot of confidence in a good FULL year. Beams, allegedly, not one of Bucks’ favorites and still, IMO, has a bit to prove. So Cyril SO FAR…
Watson went berserk early last year until injury. IF he can get the injury management right I have seen nothing in the Bombers that would detract from him doing that again. Can Selwood cope with the captaincy AND the responsibility of being No 1 Mid? I figure there has to be an adjustment period for him to settle so Watson, then if injured, Selwood after a settling period? More growth in Watson as well (fiscally).

G’day punters… My 3rd SC season and after the previous two seasons I’m hoping to prove myself as a competitor. Rate my team and provide me with some advice as these days I’m struggling to find sound advice from people who know the game.
Deledio, Yarran, J Russell, Weller, Tambling, Hansen, Conca, M Clarke (sub) & Ellis (sub)
Abblett, Judd, Goddard, Watson, D Swallow, J McDonald, C Smith (sub) & E Kavanagh (sub)
Kreuzer, Giles, Derickx (sub) & Big O (sub)
Franklin, Martin, Watts, J Brown, Reid, Rohan, Porplyzia, Zorko (sub) & Smedts (sub)
I think at this stage my question I have to ask (other than any useful feedback) is whether I should replace Ellis with Sierakowski?
Thanks for any useful advice and good luck to all in 2012.

Ok first not to be mean, backline is worst i have seen, where are the stars lids is the only one?? keep tambling as he will go better this year he cant get any worse. Mids is alright but d.swallow? there is better options out there.
Rucks are weak you need a cox or sandi or mummy etc…
Forward i read the first 2 names and thought this is alright and then WATTS???? you dont mean that dud melbourne little boy jack watts do you ?
and reid is not a good sc scorer and porps is injury prone and then rohan yes he will be alright this year but he wont go up in price and will only average 60-80 this year there is better value out there,What i would do it swap porps and watts and get some one better around the 400k mark and downgrade rohan to a rookie who will make you more money and will average around the same as rohan 50-70 mark…… its all up to you big fella good luck 2012

No that’s not mean at all as I said it’s just what I need so thank you. My logic in picking the team I have is… I believe that the mid’s in the backline are all capable of increasing in value. I can understand that Watts is a gamble but he showed good signs towards the end of last year and he’s put a bit of size on over the past 12 months so it’s time he consistantly produced rather than just show glimmers of hope.

I want Sandi and mummy but both have the bye in rd12. Hello upgrade in rd 12 and I have used the money I saved by choosing HMac to be able to get my 4 prem mids. Im actually a crows fan and I know he good porpas can be…. but at this price its worth the punt hoping that his shoulder can last half a season for a decent price rise and be upgraded mid season.

I went with goddard in the middle to provide that DPP and i think tambling will prove something this year.
mids i went with players that will get me the ave 100 but can also shoot out high 100+. I was thinking franklin over riloi but then looked at hawks draw and it dont look good for buddy. and rioli is going to fire this year bar injury. didak is my main concern might just prove to be the risk that pays off or not. and goodes was just a little to high in price for me when rok will get the same score and lil cheaper cheers for help

Sick of the questions yet and want some actual feedback?
Looks really solid PA. Injury would be my biggest worry for your forward line. Brown is risky but he should stand up. Sizzle and The Llama I’m not so sure about. So they’ve changed Sizz’s running (and please, please Football Gods let that fix the problem) but I still think they will nurse him through at stages. The Llama’s knees are gone and his hammy was ripped apart. I think at his age, with those issues and the style of game he relies on his best has past him by.
Heard some talk about Shaw being injured for the start of the year too but not 100% on that one.

Thanks for the feedback Fishy,
- Brown just had bad luck last year and at his price I think he’s a steal.
- NRoo just has a higher scoring ceiling than most of the other gun fwds imo, a risk I’m willing to take.
-Sizzle has been flying so far this pre-season, get on.
- Haven’t heard anything about Heater thus far, guess we’ll just have to wait till the NAB.

Looks good mate. Notice no Brake in there – all reports I’ve seen say he hasn’t even made it back on the track so far which makes it hard to see him playing Rd 1.

Needs a bit work to be blunt mate.
First off get some genuine guns in your midfield. Always the best scorers so you want the best going.
Dump the following – Higgins (injuries burn coaches every year) Tippet (dud) Falou (wrong game) Dick (won’t play until later in then year if at all, worth keeping an eye on though) Dawson (MASSIVE dud – especially in SC terms).
Try losing some of your mid-price players (Rohan, Porplyzia, Watts, Kruezer, Davis, Dangerfield, Waters, Vince). Turn two or three of them into instant cash with taking a punt on rookies. With the extra coin you will be able to turn a few into true guns.
You’ll be loving the look of your team once you lose the middle-of-the-roaders, get in some kids (who are golden to watch grow and bring in the big coin through the year) and get in some superstars.

Any one considering looking at Jarrod Harrow (GCS) as their fourth defender. Has hit the 80 game barrier and turns 24 this year. This may be the year to knuckle down following a years holiday on the coast. His average dropped 10 points from the previous two years so an increase of 15 ppg will be 90+ average. Played all 22 games last year and although GCS have not recruited heavily they have been togther for a full season and two pre seasons.

No mid/fwd link, might come in handy during the byes. Like your MAR picks but I think you’ve missed one in Morris. Fyfe is ? imo, might be eased into it early and drop in value. Overall I think having a 5 gun midfield could mean you’ll might miss out on a couple of cash cows during the year.

Thanks mate.
I like Morris but he is injured atm and by all reports Ellis is in front of him. Agree on Fyfe but he’s too good to leave out on face value.
I don’t think the DPP will be that important early, moreso when downgrading to create the link.
Unlike previous years when all the value was with the rookie Mids, I think this year the spread is much more even with the compromised draft and the 5 premiums should set me up nicely early.

Absolutely smokin’ midfield. You’ve spent some big coin on the superstars where 4 of those 5 is more than enough to get you rolling. A haircut in the mids could bolster the backline. Ruck division seems a bit light on but the 1 and 3 set up seems to be popular.

Whilst I’m certainly no SC god, I think his strategy could well have merit. You could make the arguement that there are likely going to plenty of good rookies available outside of the mid only position, much the same as last year (Mzungu, Smith, Heppell, Poppy, Smith, etc). IF this comes to fruition (and the NAB cup should give an indication) AND you were to select the right ones, having a midfield pumping out potentially 800 points a week from the get go could see him sitting very pretty early on indeed. For what it’s worth, I’m considering a 5 premo midfield to start with as I think this could provide a nice balance with plenty of points early on and enough cash cows fattening up at the same time.
However, with the players selected, rd13 could be tricky as 4 of his keepers share a bye here, plus the standard backs and fwds to boot.

Don’t be too worried about them being on the rookie list K. Each club can upgrade a rookie to the senior list by the Wed before the first game if they have:
- a player on the veterans’ list and/or;
- a player they place on the long term injury list (must be for a minimum of 8 weeks.)
Horsley and Pfeiffer are likely to be upgraded and others in the mix are Gibson and Couch.

No that’s OK – That was just my way of providing a suggestion – kind of a rhetorical question (unless there really was a significant reason – which was always eminently possible … the money is for Swan or Pendlebury when they drop in price, for instance). If you don’t have a particular plan for the money, you are usually best of getting extra point scoring value on the field early on (if you want to get an Overall win). if you are going for a League win only, by all means keep that money aside and buy an extra Premium when their price drops (as it will after the Rokkies start rising in price).

Try and go for a guns and rookies approach. It means doing more homework on rookies but it pays off. Trying to find a whole team of mid pricers is way to risky and unrewarding.
You only have 1 true premium midfielder. Not nearly enough.
guns and rookies you can have as many as 12-13 premiuim players in your side along with some rookies that will get games and more importantly make some $$$$
1 premium back and 2 up forward.

I may be the only one but I cannot see the point in having $400k + sitting in the bank when doing a prelim supercoach side. That is $$ that should be used to change any of the mid pricers or one rookie to a premium. You only have 2 prems in the backline and 2 in the midfield and that will get you smashed from the get go in supercoach. By now you should be thinking to get close to your best side and be waiting on the NAB for refinements. It’s not just you Tomo but shitloads have been doing it. I guess I am of the philosophy that you put your best side on the park and you leave nothing in the change rooms. You have 10 mil. use it.

On the rookie list.
Avg 19 disposals & 5 tackles in the TAC cup last year, not bad numbers. Will probably spend more time in the SANFL
Wouldnt pick him up if doesnt get elevated.
Id say pfieffer is ahead of him at the moment.

In terms of looking at Pav I take more out of “spending more time in the forward line” than anything else. Will probably have a decent year but that doesn’t help the SC. But if he’s up and about enough to lose some weight and knock out some PBs that means that there could a few Doctors around him in for big years.

Hey Fishtopher,
Actually Pav is the one person for whom playing in the Fwd line instead of the middle actually helps his SC scores … he used to average about 110 points per season when he was a Fwd, which generally dropped by about 10 points per season when used in the middle. It was 2010 when he started the year fwd and was blitzing until Barlow got injured – Pav’s average dropped dramatically for the 2nd half of the year.

3 tigers in the backline is probably not a good idea.
Try and find a replacement rookie for either ellis or morris.
Pfieiffer is still on the rookie list, make sure he is elevated before rnd 1, port have said they will elevate a rookie before the start of the season but it is between about 5 players at the moment i think.
Rowe hurt his ac joint at training last week. Keep an eye on that.
Same with fyfe, had surgery in the off season, make sure he is good to go.
Kozi!!!!! Stupid bet, what ever it was! haha
Ive heard he is actually training well. Doesnt mean much for SC though

When you come up against someone with 3 of Ablett, Murphy, Swan and Pendlebury you will kick yourself!!
I’d advise downgrading some mid rangers like Dangerfield, Robinson, Sidebottom and Yarran to free up some cash for a few of the premium midfielders.

Just quietly, why is everyone seemingly not giving the ruck position the respect it deserves? With the sub-rule star ruckmen are having to spend more time on the field and are able to score enormously with the advantage of points for hit-outs (points that HAVE to go to one of the two ruckmen contesting) as well as contested marks and frees-for. As a result of this I personally am going with two premium ruckmen.
Everyone else’s thoughts??

Let’s call it the newly-instituted “Zac Smith” rule. Never in the past have so many 1st ruck/tandem ruck opportunities been given to so few mature age recruits (with apologies to Winston Churchill).
Someone like Giles was 2nd or 3rd out of ALL GWS players in DT points last year, and in that respect is therefore a better buy than most of their midfielders. If a rookie can average say 80 points instead of a premium ruck who will get 110 points, isn’t this is good or better, than giving up a midfielder who may score 120 points for a rookie who can average maybe 80, at best. Not to mention Rucks are generally less durable than midfielders, so less money/points are potentially being wasted if a Rookie Ruck goes down and your corrsponding Mid wouldn’t have gotten injured.

While I like your thought pattern here DamenS, I tend to think that 2 premium rucks are the way to go and rather than the extra premium midfielder.
I say this because the upgrade options afforded to us in the midfield are far greater than those in the ruck division and thus make it easier to upgrade those rookies in the mid. If you have 2 ruckmen scoring 100+ every week from the get go then the rookies (like a Giles or the big O) are merely warming the pine and making money and there in case they are needed.
Young ruckmen trouble me with their consistency where as a rookie mid maybe slightly more consistent and reach their peak price sooner also.

Yes, I agree and I have two premium rucks at the moment. However, the argument I mounted above was my best explication or answer as to why “is everyone seemingly not giving the ruck position the respect it deserves?”.
I prefer two premiums (at least at this stage – the preseason could change this), I was trying to provide the alternate argument for J Watt’s benefit (seeing as how he asked for it) – which is part of why the “dislike” pissed me off – I was getting a “dislike” for an argument I don’t fully subscribe to, but which was in response to a direct request – which made me think, Good Grief !

On that …. i’ve been thinking about Zac Smith. With Josh Fraser gone he’s their primary ruckmen, has a year’s experience under his belt, another pre-season too, just thinking he could be a handy R2 at a cheapish $423,700. Definitely not a lock in my team but not one of many with a line through them.

I’ve considered him too. He’s certainly WORTH considering, but I think $400,000 is a bit too rich for me (and to close too Kreuzer). He tired dramatically towards the end of last season, so – assuming that doesn;t happen again – he is underpriced for his potential and won’t have to share points with Fraser. Tempting.

It’s hard enough trying to find enough rookies that will guarentee you games so you would expect that someone like Giles would be a safe bet to play each week and seeing what Smith done last year it’s hard not to pick giles as your 2nd ruck. And if you go with two premium rucks (yes they will score well) but that’s $1 million already down the drain and then you’ve only got $9 mil to fit 28 players in your team and then your not going to be as strong all over the ground

Two problems I see. Round 11 bye has WCE and Kangas together therefore you have both Premium ruckmen gone. If it doesn’t bother you then thats fine.
Also forwards are a bit over the place. I wouldn’t have Krak, Walker, Harper or Butcher. But especially Krak overpriced, he won’t increase and he’ll score the occasional +100 but usually 80ish. Not worth it.

He says the Smedts will probably spend most of the time in the VFL and that Orren Stephenson will “need time to develop. Not this season” ??!!
What a clueless hack. So with Ottens gone and two of Geelong’s rucks currently injured, Stephenson will not be played this season ? He will be played in 3 season’s time when he has “developed” and is 32 years old ?? What an absolute stupid-head Mr Fantasy is – where DO they get these hacks ?

Thanks for the compliment sooz. I think it’s well-balanced in structure, the only changes I would make would be to a few rookies you have (although nobody’s rookies are locked in until we see some pre-season games anyway).
BACKS:
Lake is not yet training with the main group, so keep an eye on him in preseason – he might be significantly underdone.
Scotland is a bit older and struggled a bit with a tag late last season – I would think he might drop his average a little through spending a bit less time in the mids (especially with a bit more competition in the Blues midfield with Gibbs, maybe Lucas and Yarran given more time in there). Having said that, he seems pretty fit and consistent and there aren’t too many other defenders able to average over 100 – so he’s solid.
I’d probably prefer a mature ager over Tomlinson (Morris for the Tigers, Beau Wilkes for St Kilda etc.).
MIDS:
Like those Mids. Just make sure Pfeiffer gets lifted off Port’s rookie list (which he should do). I really rate Taylor Adams – great kid – I’m just concerned over how often he will play … GWS have a LOT of talent to fit in their team, and some GWS watchers have even suggested Treloar (despite his obvious talent) might struggle to get a regular game – and watch out for GWS rotating their young players in and out of the side. Swallow will be interesting now that he is Captain.
RUCKS:
Like those Rucks, but will Witts play ? Collingwood have a few good ruckmen at the moment – I know they rate Witts and he is SUPER big, but maybe Rowe or Derickx will get more games ?
FWDS:
Can’t criticise the Fwds either, except that I’m iffy on the job security of GWS’s young players – Check Treloar out in the preseason as he is very talented, but might not play consistently. I would think Haynes may not play too much – thin as a whip – I would think he might need some strengthening up to be ready for AFL games. How about a mature-ager like Saad instead. Also be aware (pretty hard to avoid) that Franklin, Martin and Rioli will all be out round 13 (which may mean Saad isn’t a good choice for you as he will be too – Tommy Walsh has the same byes as you Geelong and Collingwood players … maybe stick with Saad and just look to upgrade him before Round 13). Oh – and you know Rioli has been injury prone, but if the new running style works, he is a super player !
I also appreciate that your team (unlike a lot of them – including some of my potential teams) is VERY well-structured from a bye perspective. Can’t find too much fault with it really – Well Done !!

One little worry, both Sandilands and Mummy have the round 12 bye together therefore you lose both premiums. Also you have stephenson out that week too. Maybe go Sandi to Berger and keep Mummy as well. I think Sandi will miss a few weeks coz Lyon will rest him due to his huge importance for the team and the possiblity to make the finals.

You said something about ‘symbolic captain of the Blues’. I don’t get it myself but it may be because O is Orren Stephenson and he will play for the cats this year. Actually wait a minute. I do get it now and your play on words. Maybe those who dislike are just a little slower than me.

Your rucks are strong, but I would d/g 211 to bolster other areas, in particular the mids.
I prefer JB @ F5, rather than F4.
I’m not a fan of your def or mids. I see your logic with Pav & God, but I would prefer to use them in the Fwd/Def line and use the DPP links with guys like Docherty & Zorko.
I expect that you will seek to move Pav/God to those aforementioned lines as you upgrade rookies and move past the byes for the run home.
That said, your logic is sound enough, so, I might have to run some experiments to see if there is more value to your structure than I am giving it at present.

Backs – Goddard, Deledio and Shaw all solid premo choices that should all average above the 100 mark as well as all (with possibly the exception of Shaw) featuring a lot through the midfield. Newman and Heppell both risky but unique options that could set you apart from a lot of teams, both are very good though when it comes to SC scoring. Dont know how much you know about rookies so i’ll just skip that part as you’ll get a better idea throughout NAB.
Mids – Your three top end mids are all guns so there’s no problems there, i also like the addition of a chea Barlow. Once again i’ll skip the rookies, the structure you currently have is a very good one.
Rucks – Personally i prefer set and forget rucks but i do see the positives in a set up liek this and if all rookies get game time then by all means use the strategy.
Forwards – Its a fairly old forward line but still has a lot of scoring potential if they find their best form. We may see Goodes and especially Pav feature as more of permanent forwards in 2012 and that may end up lowering their SC scoring so i’d suggest only picking one at the most. Petrie would have been a very good pick if he was still DPP, but even without that he still offers value although he can be very inconsistent as a marking forward compared to say a M/F player. Martin a grea pick for the forward line and should be close to a lock. Brown coming back from injury is a good pick in my opinion due to his stellar pre-season form thus far, watch his NAB cup however.
Alll up its a good team with a good structure, though i would suggest looking closer at the byes.

Thanks Rustee everything you said I have thought of as well. Things will change but I like my set up. I think I might get L Brown into my mids to give me that m/d DPP, this was my set up last year which did really well IMO (having two rookies in the mids one with M/F DPP and D/F DPP).
Heppel may be a unique who could become a premium (probably not yet though). He did look very good last year with heaps of composure under pressure and with our midfield (Essendon) we need more skill in there and Heppel def has that. So I think he might get time in there. If not I need an Essendon player and he’s probably one of our best players. Newman has been training with the midfield group so we might see him there, if not he can still get 15-20 possies in the backline and score a solid 90-100 because of his long straight kicking.
Rucks im actually happy with since either Giles or Big O should get a game and will prob score around 80ish and thats a good score for a rookie. Plus you never know with Big O being pretty much number 1 ruck at Geelong he could get 100+. And Giles as well. Rowe offers R/F DPP and if Roughy can get back on the track midyear he could be very handy in my team.
Pav scores really well as a forward and I see Fremantle improving this year so he should go alright. Goodes has easy start and is always a keeper anyway even if he has his typical slow start. Franklin will be one of my first upgrade targets. Petrie is a lil worry but Kangas have pretty easy fixture with GWS and GC twice they should get in top 8 and he should kick some goals.
I am having a look at bye stratergy but I really can’t get my head around it besides the rucks where ill prob upgrade Big O to either Berger/Cox or Goldstein after there round 11 bye. My midfield will be thin round 12. And round 13 my backs will be thin. But if I drop two games its not too big of a worry (hopefully). Ill keep messing around for the next few weeks to get it perfect.
Thanks heaps for the good analysis Rustee.

My personal opinion is that a lot of people are over estimating the potential scoring of O and Giles as an R2. Zac Smith did well last year because of the fact that he had a midfield that could take possession off his ruckwork and he could get around well. GWS’s midfield couldn’t tie their own shoelaces compared to Ablett and Rischitelli. O has played ruck before and has the body for it but he will not get the game time that every hopes that he will and if he was that good of a ruckman capable of averaging 90-100+ then he would have been picked up years ago.

We’ll just have to see what the NAB games tell us about there potential. Ruckmen can score well though and these rookie rucks should score just as well as any other rookie in any other position besides probably midfielders.

Backs are a tough one due to the Rd 13 bye. I had Goddard, Lids & Scotland all but locked until I checked the byes. Saints, Richmond, Hawks and Carlton have the Rd 13 bye…therefore I’ve gone with Shaw instead of Scotland. I think a lot of people will have Bower too so there’s another problem but hopefully by Rd 13 he’ll be a decent upgrade option.
If you’ve locked in Goddard and Lids then the only set and forget prems you can really consider are Shaw, Enright or Broughton….and perhaps Adcock.

I have worry signs over Trengove, Waters, Grimes and Smith. They could be good PODS but not sure. I usually go with a couple worries at the start that have potential for injury but never in the same position. So I would keep one but dump the other of Waters and Grimes.
Could go West instead of Smith, or Kreuz or McIntosh.
Otherwise good team.

Armstrong and Lonergan your gonna get nothing out of them as they won’t rise in price and they’re score as well as a rookie. Downgrade one and upgrade the other. Waters is an injury concern IMO. Try get Goddard in defence or Fisher.
Rockliff overpriced get him when he drops in price. Pendles is also a little overpriced but is alright. Im not starting with him because he should drop 100K, you could get Murphy or someone a bit cheaper like S Thompson or A Swallow.
McCauely I don’t think will get a game, get Big O instead.
Brynes is a worry. If you can afford it get Brown or even risk Porps.

Christensen for Nikoski. He has more upside and will save you $48500.
Jarryd Roughead will have a slow start to the season. Roughead for Mumford and Witts for Giles if you have the additinal funds. You will be able to substitute Hamling in the rucks when you trade out Stephensen or Giles when they mature thus saving a trade. You should be able to trade in a premium forward if all goes to plan.

What do you guys think? As you can see I am going for a very cash cow team, with multiple stars in each position. Im not sure about the ruckman however, with Ivan Maric either going to work beautifully or terribly in my opinion. I just dont want Cox due to Natianui and Sandilands due to the emergence of Griffin, that may effect their points.

Looking pretty good klay! Here are my thoughts:
Nice Ruckman i think they will kill it this year.
Ruckman
Like your mids but i think there may be a better option than Rockliff (Selwood, Murphy). Then pick up Rockliff after he is dropped in price abit.
Goodes is getting on and i think he may have a inconsistent season this year, but then again he could rip it apart.
Not sure about Lake, old and might not even play, i think maybe downgrade to Bower to free up some cash.
Otherwise looking very nice, good work!
Hope that helps mate

The problem with midprice teams are that yeah you may get a good start but in the end every single one of them will need to be upgraded to be compeditive in the finals therefore you waste all your trades. Its good to start with 1-3 midprices that have the potential to be in the top 10 scorers of that position but not a whole team. Guns and rookies with 2 midprices is the way to go IMO. Also some rookies will score as good if not better than midpricers and they will get you lots of money.
Your forwards, rucks and mids are ok but your backline is hopeless.

I think my best tip is to write out a team you want to end with come finals. Then get as many of them as possible at the start then fill the rest of the team with rookies or midprices that are going to rise in value or have that slim chance of being a keeper (possible Brown and Barlow). This means the guns and rookie stratergy is the way to go IMO.
Plus make sure you have some double position players and really make sure you have the connecting link.

Goddard – Premium/DPP/Lock
Scotland – Premium/DPP/Lock (or Deledio)
Burgoyne – Up for this to be Silk’s best year
Waters – IF he stays fit. Rate his work ethic and bravery
Stratton – Unders. Rate him a LOT
Clarke – ?? Good run but can they have him AND Heath ??
Smedts – DPP, Seems to have the talent talked up by a lot
Docherty – DPP, From the Island. Could go easily but wil wait on NAB form
Wilkes – Mature age recruits did me well last year. Is he the right one?
Ablett – Premium/Lock
Murphy – A “risk” for me, first time but impressed me last year. Consistent
Thompson – Maybe become Boyd or Mitchell depending on the day
Barlow – Unders.
Hayes – Unders. Along with Barlow get me another prem late in the season
Zorko – DPP. Heard him mention a lot
Brown – DPP. Crows aquaintance is in love with him
Shiel – After reading the GWS post here tonight, was Mcdonald
L’Berger – My choice of premium. Expecting a big year from him
Stephenson – Same reason everyone else has him. has to get time
Giles – This years smith by all accounts again convinced by tonights post
Rowe – DPP, Cant afford another but must have one (Roughy Strats)
Franklin – Premium/lock
Martin – liked what he did last year expecting more of the same
Dangers – Can he burn me again?? Could be chopped
Hale – My Other Ruck. Expecting more time Fwd this year
J Brown – Cant have another one like last year. Unders?
Winderlich – A Bomber I know was raving (always arent they) Unders?
Porpoise – Unders IF he can play more than 6 up to 10 then

Looks ok mate but I reckon you could definitely strengthen it with a couple of tweaks.
You’ve gone top end a lot with your rookies. You could save a heap of money you could save by trimming Buntine, Smith (as with all waiting for NAB Cup, but haven’t heard their names mentioned in much GWS talk) Coniglio, Tyson, Haynes (kids that were picked up last year are going to be just as good for 50k+ less) Morabito (might be the worthy, check NAB) Longer (will struggle for game time IMO with LBurger and Hudson there now) Black (WHO?).
You’ll be surprised how much extra $$ you have and should get you enough to get Mitch Brown up to a gun.
As the season goes on if you’ve picked well those cheaper rookies will end up on the same value as the higher priced kids. So not only have you saved a bucket they will give you more cash to play with through the year.

Folau is gunna start at full forward for GWS, my questions are;
no1. Is he good enough to rake up 50+ points in a game like other viable rookies, I mean look at others who have made the transition from rugby. K. hunt was(is) shit
no2. Will GWS even be able to supply him the ball in that position? they don’t have anyone in the league of G.ablett, Swallow and Bock and gold coast still won very few matches, GWS will go winless. So how can their full forward have any hope of attaining the ball let alone any points?

Good side, except for Pendles… (here me out, haha)
I think at 700K he is a tad overpriced.
Maybe go with Swan or someone along those lines.
Pendlebury will begin the year with a big breakeven, hence his price will drop.
They play Hawthorn & Carlton in the first 3 rounds, who could potentially slow down his big scores, and by round 4 he could have dropped quite a bit, and making him a lot better looking (price wise)
Just my opinion….
Also, be wary of Cox’s ruck time now with Naitanui stepping up.
Fyfe – Rumors of a bad shoulder….

You need Goddard, Lids or Scotland in your mids to give you that DPP flexibility for during the season.
The way I look at it, if you are working towards the bye round and can manage to have either of these 3 players as your sixth best midfielder, you will be doing quite well!
Remember, these 3 guys are still going to belt out consistent tons every week.
I say keep one in the mids, doesnt matter who (goddard preferably becuase fisher is a good defensive pick)
Aim to make them your 6th best midfielder by mid year, and you will be IMO flying!

Overall, looking pretty good.
As a Hawk supporter I wouldn’t recommend Suckling. I loved what he did last year and would love even more for him to take another step this year. The problem is his game is a bit limited and predictable. I’m a bit worried that clubs might have worked him out by now and there could be a little bit of the 2nd (3rd) year blues coming.
The MID rookies might need rejigging (NAB Cup etc, etc) You want to get these ones right. Biggest Fattest Cows are always in the middle paddock.
I’m pretty dubious about Beams. Just doesn’t seem to give a shit generally and can see him being inconsistent over the years. There’s a bit of talk about the Pies leaning slightly towards Sidebottom ahead of Beams too.

Thanks for the food for thought Fish. I will look to the Nab cup (as I am sure we all will ) for the rookies, and I may not go to Sideass as I am not convinced he can improve a lot, his avg. actually dropped last year, but he could be worth a look still. Then again, Beams to Sideass would free up a bit of cash to allow me to be a bit more selective with the mid rookies, coz I agree with you about them.Ta again.

Please give me your thoughts on my first team idea.
I’ve got a theory and it’ll show in my team here,
Goodard, Deledio, Grimes, Lake, Clarke, Smedts, Morris, Brown, Bree.
Ablett, Swan, Rockliff, Selwood, Gibbs, Mitchell, McDonald, Shiel
Leuenberger, McEvoy, Rowe, Stephensen.
Franklin, Chapman, N.Riewoldt, Brown, Didak, Zorko, Treloar, Kerridge, Panos.
I’m happily sacrificing my Defence because last year only 4 players averaged above 100 out of 300 players and most of your points come from your midfield, normally I’d have a more even spread of rookies but with GWS having 14 Defenders available for upgrades and the most expensive being Davis ( 280k ) there are going to be plenty of rookies for the picking through the year. Just try making teams with this theory and give me your thoughts? What you think Motts?
I nearly forgot that this team most no more than 3 players out in each position during each bye

Fisher
Grimes (but i wouldnt have either to be honest)
Swan (pendlebury is to pricy imo, ur choice but)
Franklin (the better player and will get midfield time according the sun)
Brown (again his a mid price player that i dont really go for but at the price he is, it’s a quality purchase)
Zaharakas (i rate him, others probably wont)
Selwood (i think his under priced and due for a solid year since being made captain)

as a huge bombers supporter i am always going to say dyson heppell but supercoach wise, 2nd year players dont have as much an impact as they do in their first year so i am a bit hesitant in selecting him. greg broughton could be an option as long as he is played in the midfield which imo is unlikley this season. i think grant birchall is in that price range he could be an ok option for you

Broughton at $502K. Freo will have a big year if they stay fit which they all are at the moment. A full team frees up Broughton to get back to his running 100+ a week game.
A smokey that no-one is talking about is Bachar Houli. He was really good for the Tiges last year and if they can finally get on an upward arc then he should continue to improve as well. Haven’t got the bottle to pick him myself but if he did pay would a great POD.

Grimes has never played more than 14 games in a H&A season, having said that, he is now the newly appointed co-captain of the Melbourne football club, Grimes will be keen to lead by example and take his game to new heights. He is at this moment, injury free I believe.

Thoughts please.
Is there still value (strategically) for the Ruck/Fwd combo? Worked real well for me last year with Hale and Petrie but with no other good option (saying that Hale is a good, enough, one) to go with Hale (Rowe/Roughead being injured) and no others on offer am I better looking at another Mid/Fwd and another “specialist” ruck. L’Berger, Giles and Stephenson are the others selected.

Hi everyone, and all the best for a new SC season.
I’ve read through a lot of people’s teams, and before I post mine, comparatively it looks as though my mids are light on. Based on my mistakes last year, I’ve decided to avoid mid-pricers altogether (150,000-400,000 ish) and have decided on the following breakup of talent:
Def: 5 keepers/premiums, 4 rookies/upgrades
Mid: 3 keepers/premiums, 5 rookies/upgrades
Rucks: 2 keepers/premiums, 2 rookies/upgrades
Fwd: 5 keepers/premiums, 4 rookies/upgrades
As I said, the mids look light on, but there it seems there is so much more cash to be made on the mid rookies, and some midfield stars who I would pick first generally just look set for an early price drop. Also, I’m keen to avoid the big name rookies as I think they do not represent as good value as others.
I have given some consideration to the byes, but not my full attention as yet.
Anyway with that out of the way, here is my team at the moment:
Def: Goddard (M), Enright, Broughton, Adcock, Johncock, Morris, Bugg, Smedts (F), Wilkes
Mid: Ablett, J.Selwood, Barlow, K.Stevens, Docherty (D), T.Mitchell, Sheil, D.Smith (F)
Fwd: Franklin, Goodes (M), S.Johnson, D.Martin (M), Zaharakis (M), T.Walsh, Zorko, Treloar (M), Hampton (M)
Rucks: Leuenburger, McEvoy, Giles, Stephenson
$25,500 Banked.
My own question marks are the following:
Too big a reliance on rookies getting game time at once early on?
Not enough D/M DPP which served me quite well last year?
Midfield not strong enough early?
Be nice to have a good D/F in the forwards, but I can’t really find one yet.
Lack of a sacrificial mid pricer or two for an early one upgrade/one downgrade trade scenario between weeks 3 and 10? But, I’m keen to avoid the mid prices if possible.
Remedy:
Sacrifice Johncock for another D/M mid rookie, and upgrade Stevens to someone like Swallow, Boyd or Jobe, but I think I’d need a few other changes to free up the cash to make that happen.
So I’m keen to get some comments on the setup mainly, and any thought on personnel would be really welcomed too, but given this is all pre NAB there may be others who I haven’t given any consideration to that come into it (B. Lee etc)
Cheers!

No Deliddio amazes Bigruss. Reasons behind omitting him? Drop Johncock and Zaharakis in my opinion. Not convinced on Stevie J this year either, better value to be found. As you said you need 1 more prem midfield I think. Other then that Very solid mate.

Thanks for the feedback!
Deledio was in until I realized he shares the bye with God, and having Morris in there (who I think will go well at his price) leaves me quite short in that bye week. Hence he is out for now. Definatley would b an upgrade target down the track.
Was thinking Johncock to L.Brown, and Zaharakis to J.Brown leaving me around 650,000 to upgrade mids. So that’s definitely an option. But being a bomber, I’d love to have Zaha firing as a bit of a POD. Interesting Stevie J, he smashed out some massive scores last year after i traded him out (head in hands moment) so perhaps I’m letting that bother me! Not sure whose a better option though.

There are a few forward option Pav, Fyfe, Beans even Motts’ boy Mitch Robinson. Stevie is a star but I try to keep my team under 30 years of age bar a few exceptions. Zaharakis made the initial cut for TheRustyFishHooks but his dodgy knees keep me awake at night. JB has to be a lock at 400k he was very unlucky last year and the break has probably done his body ( bar his face ) the world of good. Deliddio is too good to pass up regardless of byes.

Definately think you need more “Unique Players” – This side is pretty much a mixture of the most commonly named here. Suspect everyone will be picking most of these blokes, pending NAB Cup form. Still reckon there is heaps of points out there from blokes that no one will have. So have a look around for some “Left Field Options” across your whole side buddy. And I tried the One Ruckman/3 Rookies last year. And it doesn’t work. definately need a 2nd ruckman.

MID: Ablett, Swan, Pendlebury, Barlow, Judd, Selwood, Hayes, Coniglio, Mitchell, Treloar, Morabito, Shiel, T.Mitchell etc.
RUCK: Cox, Leunberger, Mumford, Sandilands, Big O, Giles, Rowe, Witts etc…

YAY! Lets all be spying hangouts and pick the same side!
In a month after the NAB Cup – The names will change. And then everyone will be logging in and picking the same blokes again.

Don’t worry everyone gets the thumbs down, there are lurkers here who have nothing better to do.
That said there are a few common players who should be a lock. They are tried and tested- non negotiable.

If your not worried about Sizzle’s hammys then for most of the year having both is no different than having Franky and Martin or Robinson. Just don’t have too many guns in your FWDs (or any other line) with the bye in the same week.
The other thing to consider though is Hawthorn’s run through the SC finals. They play the Weagles and Swans in the last two weeks so will go in full strength there. However they play Port in RD 20 and the Giants in RD 21. Massive chance to rest one or both for those games.

Need a break and the team won’t be changing much until next weekend anyway.
Would anyone be interested in joining a golf style SC league? In other words lowest score wins. Would need some rules. Have to pick a full squad with all players named to play RD1. No more than $20k in the bank. If a player hasn’t played for six weeks he has to be traded to someone who is named to play that week. Can talk about anything else we might need. Might have to monitor the finals ourselves.
Could be some good shits & giggles and a chance to bag Zac Dawson even more if he actually has a good game.
Let me know if anyones keen and I’ll set the league up.

Thanks for your feedback. Fair enough re pav, goodes and chappy. Yes, they are getting into their 30s but they are still playing great footy imo. Chappy will hopefully be back to his best this year – and the others are proven performers. For me, the only prems I pick for r1 are proven performers.
I wouldn’t pay too much attention to my rooks just yet as they’ll prob change during the NAB cup but treloar and Hampton are highly rated gws rooks, Magner and Lee are mature rooks who have been potentially touted as being upgraded. Don’t know a lot about Magner other than he’s impressing at melb, and Lee was a star mid in the WAFL and is poised to take one senior spot freed up by the gumby/prismall LTIs

As an avid Cat’s man I would recommend staying away from Chappy. I would pick Stevie J instead:
“He racked up a 199, a 162 and a 155 last season – and his poorest effort was a 70, which is still respectable for a forward. When the Cats play interstate sides at home, start rubbing your hands together”

Still says a fair bit about how Lyon sees him though.
He is never going to play the whole time in the middle so when he is down back, if he is going to be a good SC option, he needs to play with freedom. First signs point back to that shutdown role which shut down his scoring last year.

Hey guys – jumped on board SC halfway through last season and got absolutely hooked. This will be my first full season, so I’m doing my best to set up a solid team from the get go – last year I had the benefit of 20+ trades over 11 weeks, so it was a little more forgiving. Anyhow, here’s the team as it stands:
Back: Goddard B, Scotland H, Broughton G, Lake B, Clarke M, Mohr T, Smedts B (Morris S, Brown L)
Mid: Ablett G, Murphy M, Priddis M, Deledio B, Hayes L, Mitchell T (Zorko D, Shiel D)
Ruck: McEvoy B, Maric I (Giles J, Stephenson O)
Forward: Franklin L, Johnson S, Rioli C, Sidebottom S, Brown J, Pfeiffer D, Treloar A (Kennedy A, Rowe S)
Focusing on the Head-to-Head comp rather than an overall win, and figured my best bet would be to minimise the damage in two of the byes, and take a fall in one. Rounds 11 and 12 should be managable with subs, but I’ll get thumped in Round 13. Two wins and a loss vs. three questionable results seems like a fair trade. Rookies are still fluid and will be finalised during/after the NAB Cup.
Thoughts on my first starting team?

Solid team, just concerned about Lake, I know a lot of people have him in their teams, but I don’t know if the fire is there anymore for him, with the injuries and being in and out of the team last year, has it taken a toll on him mentally? Maybe I am reading into it too much but I don’t want to risk it. Other than that I think you know your problems (byes) and are willing to take a hit so go for it!

Not bad in the early stages….. the big one that stands out to me is Maric in the ruck….. would reconsider that one. Also, Id warn against having Brown dog, Johnno and Delicious in the same forward line as it’s a lot of risk to carry…. but won’t say it’s a definite no-no as they may manage to stay healty and unsuspended…..

Fair points – how would you guys recommend working them in? Does dropping Lake to another Rookie leave me too light on in the back line, even if doing so would allow me to upgrade Maric to a genuine mid-priced Ruckman?
Rioli’s been one that I’ve agonised over – and I’m still not 100%. Is there a better/cheaper option that might help in upgrading Maric even further?

I’d move Goddard into your backline and remove Newman, but its up to you who you decide to replace for him. I say this because it’s easier for a midfielder to rack up 100 than it is for a back, and goddard will rack up that 100. My suggestion for midfield if you can afford him would be Jelwood.
Why don’t you have Dids? I rate him highly.
Again you’re using really expensive players in your mid to get links between the forward, middle and back, just use rookies. Fyfe should be in ya forward not mid.
Dangerfield is a decent POD, but i’d take someone like Zaha over him.
Hope that helped and all the best for your SC team

It’s a very good team. I have maybe 4 or 5 different players, but not ones where I can say “Oh he’s so much better than yours”. We’re all guessing at this stage, and (especially with the bench players) we all need to wait for the preseason games. At this stage, see how Zorko goes (rehab group – might be able to pick him up later), Redpath and Witts would be my greatest concerns … we’ll need to wait until we see them play though to be sure.

he is only 23 and has been unlucky with injury, he has been injured in every season but 1 that he has played in. so to average over 75 for the last 3 seasons is pretty good! i think he was a top 5 draft pick, he has a deadly left foot and great footy smarts. he will have a better season this yr. he should average 85-88ish and for the price he is that would be very good!

He played 16 and just four the season before that. He’s priced at just under $500,000 so you need him to become a premium as he’s just about already priced as one. When you look at other prems such as SP_10, Swan, GAJ, Murph, Jelwood, Judd, Boyd and co, there all likely to avg 120′s or higher and have a history of not missing games. Hartlett may breakout this season but that’s a massive risk and his history suggests he’ll be on your pine for a good portion the season.

You need to keep a keen eye on the NAB cup, your rookies are all over the place.
Burgoyne is past his best.
You need at least a couple of “premium” midfielders, nicky dal,swan,pendles,gablett etc
Try and go for guns & rookies, its a proven way to win supercoach, trying to find the next big thing in midpricers is far to hard.
You have far to much money in the bank, use it to upgrade hodge & gibbs maybe.

Would definitely consider knocking out one of your midfielders for a rookie, as midfield rookies often have a decent price rise throughout the year. Someone like zorko, k stevens, d shiel.
Then upgrade one of your defenders to a premium

Just worked out Buddy’s avg against his first 5 opponents for the year…83.4…Maybe not the certain starter I thought he was.
Im thinking maybe go with Martin & upgrade a rook to franky after a few games and hopefully a cheaper price…

I would be interested in using that theory when you apply it to Delidio and his newly strained hamstring. Coming off little nab cup (they will rest it for at least 2 weeks) and then coming up against those teams you have mentioned, would you be better off getting him in round 6-8? #justathought #puttingitoutthere

What are peoples thoughts on Hartlett and Sloane, at the minute i have both, Hartlett ($499k) s a 21 year old entering his 4th season. Last year he averaged 93 while being injured. Sloane ($478k) is also a 21 year old entering his 4th season (he only played 1 game in his first season) he averaged 88 last year. I Think both we average 100+ next year. I’m predicting they will be the new “redrock” from last year, Redden and Rockliff together averaged 107 after averaging 81 the yearr before. I believe and hope they can do the same

Totally, it has allowed me to have 15ish premiums ( including JBrown & LHayes ) to start the season with that extra cash Angusegg! Even if your rookie ruck on the ground each week gets 50-60 SC points, the upgrade with your extra $$$$ to another premium in the guts instead of a potential mid-pricer… may get you an extra 70-80!
IMO, it’s worth the punt!

Hey SCT coaches,
A mate of mine put a suggestion to me today that I hadn’t heard before, I’d be curious to see what a few of you think?
He’s idea this season is to pick Swan or Pendles in the middle with the rest of his mids being all rookies(including the bench)……..his starting backs, forwards & rucks to be all premiums ( rookies on the bench ). Then when it gets to the multiple bye rounds, start to cash in & upgrade his rookies in the mids & avoid as many zero’s as possible.
I thought it to be a very different concept but had potential, I’m sure SCT coaches will be able to find some holes in his suggestion though!

Balance my Grasshopper – It has been done before (actually even up to an all-rookie mid), but is too extreme. Fwd and Back premiums don’t score as much as the Mids (missing points), and the Fwd Premiums tend to fall a lot in price at times (far more than the Mid Premiums), which is an opportunity missed to secure a bargain. It’s a great theory and an interesting concept. So is Communism …

PS. – Did you pick the irony in me stating more “balance” is required and then saying Communism (the balance of wealth) doesn’t work – well different balances I guess – an all mid-price team would likely fail so that’s probably “communism” – cheap mids would be closer to a sausage dog raping a rottweiler covered with mustard – it could work, but it wouldn’t be a pleasant ride …

Ive had to select 3 midpricers because of $$$
Lake,Brown & Ballantyne.
Would be fun upgrading all those mids!
As far as I can tell it leaves the door open to upgrade to the best premium midfielders available at your time of trade, because you have non locked in from the start so any that might dip in value or get injured etc won’t be a problem.

Here is my latest version before NAB …
B: Goddard, Lids, Shaw, Birch, Grimes, M.Clarke, Bugg (Brown, Wilkes)
M: Swan, Ablett, Selwood, K.Stevens, K. Horsley, S.Clifton (D.Sheil, S.Gibson)
R: Sandi, HMac (Big O, Giles)
F: Buddy, Fyfe, Rioli, Zaha, J.Brown, Pfieffer, Saad (Treloar, Hampton)
Thoughts:
Trying to fit in as many mid-rooks as possible; JBrown and Grimes will be premiums IF they stay on the park; Selwood adn Sandi are cheap; HMac has an easy start to the season and will be ripe to upgrade before byes.
What do you think?

There has been a fair bit of talk about the bye strategy of different supercoaches ie throwing a round or evenly spreadying the pain throughout the 3 rounds. What does everyone think about throwing a position per round.
IE round 11 have mainly forwards with byes, rnd 12 midfielders and then round 13 defenders. You could load up in each position and select some mpp’s to assist with coverage for each position. The positions that are at full strength would then have higher scores than if you spread the players with byes out over the multiple poitions because all your guns would be playing rather than lower scoring bench players.
a flaw may be that you dont have enough mpp to cover and you suffer a fair few 0′s just wondering what peoples thoughts were

The byes are a killer this year.
My concern with this strategy is the donuts. It may leave you weak for all three bye rounds.
I am considering being weak in one (maybe two) weeks and winning the other(s).

Hey guys,
This is just my team i quickly threw together, im thinkin my back and mid have too many premiums and rookies and not enough bargins…but otherwise let me know your thoughts, may need some work:
Def: Scotland, Deledio, Shaw, OBrien, Lake, Buntine, Tomlinson (Docherty,Ellis)
Mid: Pendlebury, Judd, Watson, Pavlich, Martin, Coniglio (Tyson, T.Mitchell)
Rck: Warnock, Longer (Giles, Witts)
Fwd: Stokes, Betts, Clake, Watts, OhAilpin, Patton, Walsh (Hamling, McInnes)
Still got 27K in my pocket, any suggestions???

Patton won’t be playing til May I believe. Longer is a long term ruck option for my dearly loved Lions, he will only slot in if Hudson or Leuy go down. OhAilpin as well is a bit iffy he may do well but I would be worried about his ball supply into the forward line. Docherty may not get much game time this year either, good player but hes coming off a hip injury so they won’t rush him into the team at all, that and he is a rookie.
I like your Midfield, looks very strong with a good choice of rookies, Pav is looking trimmed down and I think it will be a big year for him.
I agree with Jester, considering other options for the players he listed.

HGL, i’m also torn at the moment with young shuey.

I think playing last year injury/illness free has given him great confidence and with the lessons learned from the intensity of finals he will take his game to another level. My only worry is whether oppositions pay him more respect with a tag.

Awkwardly priced at $293,500 for what he has demonstrated thus far. Yes, wraps on him are good but not enough to be a gun in 2012. From what we’ve learnt over the years, unless he becomes a keeper (which would be a highly specualtive suggestion at the moment) you are better off picking a sub $170 rookie who will give you a greater price rise.

A couple of notes though – From what i have heard Morabito isn’t a likely starter from round 1. I would probably downgrade him and use the cash to upgrade conners. Also a few question marks over Kruezers ability to score well enough (coming from a blues supporter), thus I wont be opting for him this year, but he is certainly looking the goods so far this pre-season so could be a handy player. + docherty & zorko are both injured and are unlikely to feature early on..Defenitely downgrade targets though

Averaged about 108 last year against the teams Hawthorn plays in the first 7 rounds. If he does that again, then yes his price will drop, but so will 90% of the top end.
With the extra time around the ball he has massive potential to up those numbers.
You could save some money and use it elsewhere but it could also end up costing you 3 or 4 games early on. BIG RISK.

Yeah, reckon you’ve gone a bit hard on the MIDS there. Don’t forget the best value rookie will be the MIDS as well. You can def afford to offload one of the guns to a rookie which will give you 400k+ to spend as well as the coin you’ll make when you milk them down the track.
Personally I’d use the cash to upgrade HMac. Will have a good year but will have to share too many points with Goldy to be your number 1 ruck.
Should have a bit of cash left over to work on the FWDs too. Piss Gray off (over-rated, lazy & will struggle to have points up for grabs in the Port rabble) and upgrade the him to a gun.

I have two points of discussion here:
1) What do people think of Bob Murphy as a unique option down in the backline? Played well in the NAB cup, is a quality user of the ball and the ball will be spending a fair bit of time in WB defence.
2) I am thinking of going a 3:5 ratio of guns to rookies in my midfield. Is it too much to have Pendles, Ablett and Swan all in the same midfield? Or would I be better going with 2 of them and then a cheaper option in the likes of Mitchell, Swallow, Selwood etc?
Thanks.

Bob did well last year but would use him a third or fourth defender. Possible upgrade.
Pick Ablett and Swan. Pendles price is going to come down. He will be ripe to pick around the time of the byes as an upgrade.Then take your pick of the other options Mitchell, Swallow, Selwood, Murphy, Judd, Boyd etc.

No – of course not – player’s prices don’t change at all until after Rnd 3 has been played.
Yes – of course they are (but only after Rnd 3) … but not all players … obviously rookie priced players who are playing will go up and the higher a player’s price is at the start of the season the more “drag” there will be on their prices.

A bit (the highest starting prices are higher), but not too much – last year saw the introduction of Gold Coast (a huge amount of Rookies) which meant the Premiums fell by a lot last year compared to any other year prior. This year will be a bit worse (as there are the GWS rookies, but also some of the GC boys will still be rising in price too and the Premiums’ prices are higher to start with). As the rookies rise in price, the Premiums will drop.

So would it be a good move to not buy the top end stars at the start, cop a few round losses (which we wont even be playing first few rounds), build your team up with lots of rookies and mid-pricers that will move up in price, meaning you will have a lot more cash to upgrade to players that will have moved down in price?

That’s a theory – and a very sound one if you are trying to win a League – but it is harsh on trades and you may give up too much of a lead if you are chasing overall (though Cotchin was a good value pick for me last year and I planned to trade him up to Gablett once he had had his bye and before Cotch had his – worked very nicely) !

Yeah Catta – that’s why I’m putting 22 Ultra Premiums in my team from the start this year …
Ollie – absolutely, if you want the League win … but I always go for overall, so for me, I never have any money left in the bank at the start (need your best team out on the field from the start and rely on your trading from then on).

Sorry guys, I actually thought league matches started from round1!
In saying that Ollie, I’m with DS. From R1 I’m going for my best possible score, nothing worst than chasing your tail from R1 as it’s a long season.
My pre-season aim is to pick 14-15 premiums, 2-3 mid prices & the rest in rookies (cash cows), I’ll be using the 3 multi bye rounds to the fullest in trades to cash in & upgrade to try & avoid as many donuts as possible. I used this stratagy last year & I was very comfortably positioned in R14, but then the wheels fell off due to some injuries & I made some average trades that cost me 100′s of positions on the overall ladder which I struggled to make up by season’s end

I am considering Tony Armstrong to put in my backline is he a good pick and is he going to get games and score highly?, if so who do I take out or is my backline good as it is?
Also Tommy Walsh for my forward line is he a good pick and is he going to get games and score highly?, if so who do I take out or is my forward line good as it is?
Also could I get some opinions and information on how these guys are going and if they are going to get games and are good picks? Buntine, Darley, Shiel (heard he is in a moon boot is this true? and is he going to be ready to play Round 1? Tom Mitchell (heard he is injured as well is he going to get a go Round 1 if he is fit?

Rucks are SC point machines, why is everyone so keen to save some cash and fill it with rooks, there is a reason mumford, cox and berger are so expensive, check the scores! i’m sticking with 2 prem rucks this season, and you having none makes me quick to dislike your team, sorry.

Soft socks, the logic of running a 1/3 or 0/4 Ruck premium/rookie strategy is to allow yourself an opportunity to bolster other areas whilst still maintaining Ruck scoring until you can upgrade. This year there are a couple of tasty options, but, a 0/4 strategy is very risky indeed.
I started with a 1/3 strategy, but have gone for a 1-1-2 strategy, the second 1 being a mid-pricer that I am expecting to become a prem this year.

Good to see some love for +cock, although, I haven’t got him–too injury prone.
Bolton is a better player than HGL has ever given him credit for, but, I still think that there is better value in the marketplace.
I have Brown dog and recognise the risk/reward element. Deano raised a good point last week about what points the big fella needs to score in order to provide value as a selection. You might find it worth your while giving it a bo peep.
Watts is a choice that intrigues me, he will improve this year, both through age & Clark’s presence–unless of course, Clark/Jurrah takes points off Watts. Interesting choice.
The thing with those last two & Rohan is, would you be better off keeping 1, then using the other two to go prem/rook?
Ditto for Bolton/Hayes.

Massive is not the ‘must have’ ruck of years gone by. Doesn’t mean that he and 211 wont churn out the scores, but, generally means that we think that we can get similar scores from cheaper rucks such as Louie & Macca which gives us more for other area of the field.

rod , sorry mate too much risk in having 7 rookies to relied on in your back line it will cause you too many headaches for ya , plus rookie backs wont grow as fast as rookie mids , so I would only have 4 guns in the midfield and the rest would be rookies and I would streanghen my backline by bringing in a ..eg enright , delidio, broughton , adcock or a birchal ..
going by the swans they are not going to rush mitchell into the team , so he wont play the first few rounds , maybe a latter down grade down the track.

I was just saying we love you and “friends don’t let friends make mistakes”. Hasn’t Drummond (who has spent all preseason in Rehab group and is currently re-injured if I’m not mistaken) played about 12 of a possible 256 games throughout his career ? Why will this one be better – especially given his limited preseason ?
As for the bionic man – is this his third, fourth or 15th knee reconstruction he is up for ?
Both are great players – IF their bodies hold up … they haven’t in the past and they are not young players so they have had plenty of opportunities. Do yourself a favour and file them with Shaun Higgins in the “not for me” category.
Robbie Gray fans better be very religious and not miss any prayer sessions to whatever God they believe in through the season too … Hartlett, Grimes … the list goes on.

LOL – I know what you are saying, but don’t take it personally. It is STILL valuable as it IS a valid form of feedback, even if it is not fully extrapolated into a cogent argument or explanation … if I worried about the number of “dislikes” I got (secretly I kind of like them – It means I’ve hit a nerve and therefore may be at an important juncture between what I believe and what the public believes – at worst I’ve made them think, at best I have a unique thought which could be of value in Supercoach).
Don’t think that because heaps of people like Justin Bieber they therefore REALLY think he is better than Jeff Buckley (well actually probably most people do, but most people are idiots – both of which RUIN my argument, but never be concerned about being in the minority when you are sure you are right – unless you are always delusional, and then be VERY paranoid about it) !
Are there any questions you still have which have only been “liked” or “disliked” ? I’ll do my best to tell you what I think and why, and I’m sure other people will join in (there’s a core group here who are pretty darn good really) … ?

Yeah i do actually Damo, currently my mid rooks look like: Neale, Gibson, Coniglio and Clifton. If i drop Coniglio down to Mcdonald or Sam J reid. I can upgrade Heppell to scotland in my backline, giving me:
Goddard, Lids, Shaw and Scotland. Opposed to what i have now with Heppell a D4…
Question being; should i drop Coniglio and upgrade heppell

Good rookies, but personally Id drop Coniglio (not based on his NAB performances thus far – he WILL be good and will consistently play – just based on his price). I would certainly look at Reid or McDonald (I think McDonald has a higher point ceiling, but may require more breaks than Reid – Reid has also been injury prone in the past though). The problem with Scotland is he shares the break with Lids and Goddard – that’s 3 premiums out round 13 + the lower prices players who share that bye. How are you going for rnd 12 backs apart from Shaw ? Enright is consistent. If you are going for a league win, don’t worry – even if you got a couple loses during the bye rounds you should be fine if your team is strong otherwise (and could be better off during the finals). If you are going for overall, Rnd 13 backs will be a problem for everyone, but they must be considered.

would you suggest Birchall or heppell? not looking at Byes just estimated averages for 2012.

Out of those two, Birchall – he is a lot more mature and the Hawks look like they are continuing with their short passing game from the backline so far. Heppell is still a bit of an unknown quantity – he could be GREAT value if he pulled a Nathan Fyfe, went into the midfield and blitzed – and he has put on a lot of muscle from last year – but why gamble ? It may pay off, but the odds are against it. I’d go with Birchall where you largely know what you’ll get (barring injury, unforseen events, 15th drug strike and all the usual waivers) …

Easy one. I’m a Richmond supporter
J Brown. He is a dead cert champion when not injured, and has had his first full preseason in ages. J Roo is great, but have you SEEN Richmond’s first 5-6 games ? That is a Hellish start to a season ! I don’t think J ROO will go DOWN in price (he’s certainly talented and underpriced), but I’d be looking to pick him up a bit later than The J Dog (wait – they’re both J- Dogs) … the Brown snake ??

okay, need some thoughts. changes to premium choices, or rookie choices, or the use of my one ruck money would be great.
instead of going extra in midfield i went one extra down fwd and struggling badly up back. i saw this as okay as there is a less difference between premium and rookies in backs compared to other lines. and as there are lots of moneys to be made in mid rookies and a fair few up back to upgrade later.
still 29 days till lockout, so this will change 10000000 times still. so tear this to pieces for me boys and teach me a thing or two!

im VERY happy with my fwds and mids and i think that mummy will be up for a big one. i like what iv been hearing about most of the rookies and i think it will be a huge year for some of them making ridiculous amounts of cash real quick!

I accept that Burgoyne, Lake, Hayes, N Roo and Brown are risks, but at full fitness they are proven guns. Will assess the Hayes, Lake selections after NAB Cup, but Burgoyne looked all class in the first NAB cup and N Roo and Brown are just too cheap to pass up.

Very solid Nickooo.
Barlow’s a risk with leg already flaring up but on the other hand everyone is jumping off him now so if he does pay off he will be a great POD.
Sandi’s another one. That’s a lot of coin and if you read up a bit on this “turf toe” they reckon it can linger for years. I think Freo will be nursing him through the year especially with Griffin being as good as he was in 211′s absence.
Pattison won’t play.

I’ve got Fyfe at the moment and no Goodesy but he looked very, very good last night.
He’s notorious for starting off slowly but looked sharp and has a nice run at the start of the year too.
If I had to pick one I’d go Fyfe because he will spend 90% of his time around the ball, but I’ve just tweaked my team and got Goodes in there as well.

Any thoughts people?
@ Big Sexy – spotted you poked your head up for a bit there. With your Catspertise where do you see Guthrie headed this year. Is he in the best 22? If he plays will he get much midfield time? Is he one they might look at to take up the Pink Pig’s role?

so i decided to go a different strategy, i usually go GnR’s but with hers i’ll go all out but the mids.
i know i’ll sound retarded, but just wait a sec, there are plenty and i mean PLENTY of very very decent mids out there. even if 6 (inc. the bench) of the mids average 60-70 (which i reckon they will) thats a jump of about 200-300K, swap em over and yeh, you got yourself an all Premium line up by round 10-13.

I think that it depends on wether or not there is a good influx of midfield rookies or not. I base it on which lines have the least amount of good rookies on it and build up those lines as much as you can. If you break it down you still have about the same amount of premiums in the team as a whole as you would if you did the team normally.
In the end it is a test to see what happens for this year and not any years previous and will be dependable on the talent available.You just have to hope that you don’t get too far behind by the time you want to start trading in premium midfielders. If you want to approach it differently then exclude a different line (fwds, backs) and then gauge the difference. Me personally I am sticking with this.

i reckon it’d work, as Juddy said “If you break it down you still have about the same amount of premiums in the team as a whole as you would if you did the team normally”
it does make sense in a way, instead of all your premiums/rookies spread out they are all in their place.
“You just have to hope that you don’t get too far behind by the time you want to start trading in premium midfielders”
i reckon at worst you’d be in the same position as everyone else, the rookies would have all jumped up in price (hopefully) and maybe in a better position because you’d be able to swap in a full premium squad earlier than others.
well good luck to you’s either way.

Looks pretty risky to me.
You might have the same amount of premiums but the midfield premiums are always going to be the biggest scorers. If you are just going for a league it MIGHT pay off but you will be definitely be giving up wins in the first half of the year and if things don’t go exactly to plan in the second half (and they never do) you might cost yourself a spot in the finals at all.
I also think you’ll end up burning a couple of trades. Eight rookies in one line is going to be pretty hard to get right. What happens if two get rested and two more can’t maintain their spot. Donut City is not a nice place!
Having said all of that, it’s good to see people getting away from the cookie cutter teams and having a crack. Risks that pay are what will get you ahead of the herd.

I am not going for league with this team as it is my “wifes” team and she doesn’t give a shit. (she doesn’t even know about it) It is simply a test side to see what would happen. I do realize that the mids are the biggest scorers but they are also the more heavily weighted ‘pure premium’ based line with 39 players over 500k. The Backs only have 11 and the Forwards have 15. By taking most of the top players in the other lines and having the right rookies in the right spots it my just be different enough.

Hmmmm. I’m in a bit of a pickle. I originally had Heppell as my D5 and with my current side I had rookies picked but no-one over the price of Pfiffer and Cooyou (126k). In light of recent NAB cup outings I am toying with the idea of ditching Heppell for Grimes and giving myself an extra 70k to upgrade some rookies prior to the season starting because players like Wingard are looking bloody good in a weak team.
So……
T/Up- Keep Heppell and be smart about who you can get
T/Dn- Get Grimes and use extra cash to help get Wingard etc.
or just hold fire till NAB finishes and see what happens.

I’ve got pretty much the same conundrum Juddy but looking at Broughton down to Heppell.
Wingard is the real tempter. He should get more game time than rooks from stronger teams (Morabito, Lucas, Stevens) with Port looking to rebuild and unlike kids at GWS he will have an experienced midfield around who have the size to protect him and also take the better defensive mids.

I would go the second choice (just) but find someone other than Hargrave. Maybe Stratton, Dempsey, Connors or Davis if you are determined to go low/midpriced or keep an eye out for rookie, (Bugg, Darley) and use the cash elsewhere.

I have been having a look at my team and im considering going with the 1 premium 3 rookie stratergy in the ruck. im looking at going with Burger, BIG O, Giles and im seriously considering Redden from Port Adelaide. I saw a bit of him on the weekend and with Ports low ruck stocks thought he could be in with a shot. Although Im concerned Lobbe will come back in.
Thoughts anyone.

Brown is $397900 is Supercoach… is he now too much of a risk knowing that his playing style isn’t going to change. If he is cleared for Round 1 – how long before he cops another blow to the face ruling him out for the season? If you drop Brown who else would you be looking at getting in?

That’s a bit more realistic.
Personally don’t trust Hurn. Stiffy will be reliable enough but not sure about top ten and I can’t see how Sidebottom is going to get enough points off Pentleberry, Swan, Daisy, Ball and Beams to make top ten either.
Gotta take a punt somewhere though eh. Good luck mate.

hi guys, i’ve done supercoach once before (a couple of years ago) so its been a while since i’ve made a team. I’ve decided on Guns and Rookies this season. I’ve made a team so far that i think is pretty good. My team has 17 Rookies (under $200k) and 13 Guns (Over $550k) i just wanted your opinion on whether this is a good GnR ratio? i’ve got a bit of a plan on what i’ll do with what rookies later in the season but i just need some help on the starting team, any help would be much appreciated.

J Hombsch who plays for the Giants only a rookie but i think sheedy pulled some strings to get him there… what do people think about him…
Mitch Clark for the Dee’s what are peoples thoughts on him, breakout year or not worth the money?

hombsch- you could get other rookies for that price who are probably better and have better job security.
clark- changing clubs, should be number 1 fwd so worth a punt IMO, thinking of maybe having him in my team. or you could trade him and another player, get a premium forward and a rookie.
hope that helps

you have to many mid pricers in there.
Get rid of Johncock, warnock, griffen and waite and swap them for some prems and rookies also dont no about having folau but that could pay off and also get goddard in the defense. as for the rookies i would reconsider dick and crozier there are alot better choices out there but its a good start.

I heard that they were going to implement this as part of Supercoach itself … of course it could only be approximate (so many variations and adjustments to Supercoach scoring rather than DT which is straightforward). If this doesn’t get implemented, I can recommend the Herald Sun website, which does updates each quarter, and are reasonably accurate.

Opening up my team for comment/criticism. Slightly different approach to some in that I am loading up my forward line and running with extra midfield rookies to harvest cash from. Really is slim pickings in rookies for other positions when compared to the mids. I have several DPP’s in the forwards that can move to the mids under the new rule (if required) when I upgrade my rookie mids. Couple of smokies in there too.
Backs: Scotland, Deledio, Shaw, Broughton, Hargrave, Buntine, Ellis (Mohr, Smedts)
Mids: Ablett, Selwood, Sloane, Coniglio, Neale, Magner (Shiel, Mcdonald)
Rucks: Mumford, Giles (Redden, Stephensen)
Forwards: Franklin, Goodes, Fyfe, Martin, Sidebottom, Christensen, Motlop (Saad, Weedon)
Cash: $66,600
Obvious comments are no Goddard (eventual upgrade target for backline), no Pendles/Swan (will aim for one as an upgrade target), and Mummy as R1 (as I have the cash to go Cox). Plan is that Cox’ price will drop and I will pick him up on a cycle low.

Interesting move with the Mid rookies, could pay off and make you a load of cash. There are probably enough rookie options in FWD and DEF to encourage you to downgrade at least one from Broughton/Hargrave and Sidebottom/Christensen to rookies. Get another premium ruck with your spare change.

Might want to rethink that Mitchell having schockers bit.
His lowest score last year was 85. Out of the top 12 Mids from last year (and that probably means the whole league, but I can’t be arsed going quiet that far) only two players (Pendlebury and Priddis) had higher scoring worst games.

Nope – not yet. I’d be holding him back too given his game relies partially on pace and endurance running and it was his first ever hamstring injury. It’s just the preseason – no use taking a risk of worsening the injury.

Rucks: Cox, Mumford (Giles, Stephenson).

How does that look? Not too many mid-pricers in there?

I had McDonald in my team but then took him out last night because I’m not sure that he will play alot of games in a row and that he will be a candidate for the sub. This all means he will take ~ twice as long to cash in. I personally like the look of Chadly Wingard from PA.
Also Champion Data have confirmed that if the ball hits his walking stick it doesn’t count as a stat

Surely the 12 year olds will be more likely to get the vest. I think McDonald’s experience will be too important to them to be sitting on the pine. I am starting to worry about him being tagged out of games though. Bateman (who IMO is close to finished as a footballer and has none of the run he used to) almost completely shut him out in the first half on the weekend.
Wingard is really starting to grow on me too. JS is looking pretty good and with an experienced (if a bit sh@t) midfield around him he won’t cop a hard tag and will be up against the 4th or 5th best midfielders.
Has anyone watched the Port games? What are his disposal effieciency and skills like?
Might have to speak to the board and squeeze the extra 70k to get him in.

Needs a bit of work Mr Vaughn.
You might have read people talking about the Guns & Rookies strategy. Basically you need to try and avoid mid-price players (O’Brien, Jones, Clark etc.) as they will only be getting you average scores and not make you any cash. If you offload a few of them to rookies you will have a heap of cash to upgrade some of those mid-pricers into genuine guns who will get you the big 120+ scores. These rookies (if you pick the right ones) also make you the most money so as the season goes on you can trade them off at $300k+++ for the next batch of rookies who are getting a crack mid season. That extra cash buys you extra guns.
You also need players who are going to be your captain week to week. Look at the very top end (Ablett, Pendlebury etc.) because with the double points the captain gets you want to maximise that.
Read through a few more threads and you’ll get the picture. Good luck mate.

First time I’ve seen Daisy get a guernsey. Has smashed it so far this year and could be a good POD but can he get enough points off Swan and Pendles to become a premium?

Mmmmmmm doubt it. As far as SC goes the only real forward key position players that are considered premiums are Buddy and Cloke. It has taken those guys years to get there so there would be better options than Butcher. He may do well this season but not SC well.

Why do you think there should be a maximum number of players from one team ? Apart from the bye situation, but even then, if you have Franklin and you want Rioli rather than Dustin Martin (for example), then why not ? You are just replacing one person with a Round 13 bye for a different person with a Round 13 bye. If you think Rioli will score more than Martin then why not choose him ?
This also goes for Birchall or Sam Mitchell – Why would having Rioli and Franklin in your forward line mean you shouldn’t pick Birchall in your backline or Sam Mitchell in your midfield ?

Hey Catta, I’d go Broughton, as his points ceiling is much higher. Barlow and Mundy are still recovering from their injuries and we all know that if Broughton gets placed into the Midfield, he becomes an Ultra Premium. If he stays in defence most of the time he still manages a consistent average of 90 – no real downside there !

Cheers DS, the mind can somewhat be clouded when considering one of your own teams players, hence the poll! Ross Lyon does seem to be playing Broughton in a midfield role in the few games I’ve seen, which is making me lean towards him too!

Hi guys,
Im really struggling on deciding my fouth premium midfielder.
Currently my midfield consists of
ABLETT, SELWOOD(joel), MONTAGNA, ???, SMITH(devon), NEALE, (MAGNER, GIBSON)
Im thinking of Rockliff or Priddis. Priddis for the consistent 115 or do i go rockliff for the consistent 105 with the once a month 160.
Money is not an issue in this case so any other suggestions would be great.

Good Start I reckon mate.
Couple of things I reckon
DEF: Mohr looks the traditional full back, maybe swap him for someone who will be running the ball out like Darley. And not sure how Marty Clarke will go early on, looked ok-ish, but might be someone around the 100k mark that will score more and give you an extra 70k in the sky rocket.
MID: Keep an eye on Deledio’s hammy.
RUC: Macintosh a good POD, but reckon you need a proper premium here.
FOR: Very Handy
At the end of the day though knackers, go with your gut, and just make sure your rookies are playing round 1! But I would be far from shattered if someone gave me this team

yeah mate, never put more than 3 or 4 players (especially in the same position) of the same side in your team (even if it’s someone like collingwood), this will prevent trading when byes come around and its also always bad to put all your eggs in one basket because every team has a bad week!
good luck mate
If you do do this, make sure a couple of them are rookies because if you trade them when byes come around you will hopefully make money off them. 2 birds one stone

my premium:mid:rookie ratio is as follows. what are your thoughts? any opinions will be of great help
12:3:15
the mid pricers i’ve gotten are players who are possibly able to score 100+ points and have in the past been premiums. having that extra couple of mid pricers also allows me to have better premiums through out my team.
ie: Fyfe instead of Pavlich and Deledio instead of Newman, etc.
thanks for your help

Your underselling the possibilities of the rookies they can make you $200-$250K easily (not $130K) if you hold on to them long enough and get the right ones. Good rookies can get to $300K pretty easily over 7-9 rounds. When you say you need to trade four rookies for one premium that is wrong. Most likely you’ll use two/three rookies either one/two downgrade and one upgrade to get that premium. Hopefully you only need two rookies to get a premium not four.
Midpricers are alright but they can be a waste if you get the wrong one. If you strike it well ie Fyfe then your laughing but its a big risk to choose the right one as usually rookies can score similar to that midpricer and the rookie costs roughly $200K less. What im saying is the rookies have alot more upside then midpricers. Midpricers have job security but usually they are midprice for a reason.
Everyone has a different opinon on stratergies mine personally is the GnR but im contemplating a couple midpricers (Lake/Hargrave and Porps) as these have proven to be premium (in the best forward/backs) in the past and barring injury can regain that premium status.
With GnR stratergy you can start with 14 premiums usually max therefore you need another 8 premiums with my thoughts of two rookies to get one premimum then you only need to use 16 trades. Now thats if everything goes well (premium has dropped in price and rookie is at his ceiling), otherwise maybe another 4 more trades therefore 20 trades to get full premium side with 4 left for injuries and other stuff. Last year I had 22 premiums and even one on the bench in the mids, other people were able to have a premium on the bench in each position as well. So in saying all this you need to get the right rookies and milk them for every penny by waiting till they can’t reach there break even and then sell them. Wait for premium to bottom out at some point during the year and get them.

Thanks for the explanation Jimbo. I really appreciate it… Like I mentioned before still pretty new at this, and wasn’t sure about the GnR strategy and your explanation makes sense. Helps a newbie like me make sense of it all.
Do rookies usually make that much though? I was just flipping through a few stats from last year, Heppell started the season at $153,600 and finished at $357,700 (I can’t remember if it was any higher during the year…) but he won rising star last year, and really only netted 200k. So is it common for rookies to really make you $200-250k? or is it really a guessing game of luck of who ends up panning out and who flops…
As for midpricers, I’m thinking exactly as you are of guys that kinda are at budget prices at the moment, like Lake, Hargraves, Hayes to name three…
So what I’m thinking is $693,700 for Lake, Hargraves plus Ellis and about $80k to play with at another position… Or do you go Shaw + Smedts + Bugg for $773,100…
If Lake and Hargraves jump to say 400k (dunno if that’s realistic) each and Ellis jumps to say 250k, they’d be worth $1.050mil…
Shaw is worth $546,700 at the moment (that’s pretty top value IMO), so really I’d need to have both Smedts and Bugg be worth $503k (252k each) to break even with my other scenario.
Now if I go out and sell Lake + Ellis and keep Hargraves on my roster, I’d have 650k to shop… That gives me $550k to get the “best player” available plus $100k for a cheaper roster filler and Hargraves…
Now in the 2nd scenario, if I go and sell Smedts and Bugg for $503k (assuming they are worth that much), I’d only be able to spend $400k on a replacement and $100k a roster filler, with Shaw…
So really I’m kinda in the same position either way… so is the GnR strategy that much more worth it?
So is it more realistic for someone like Lake/Hargraves jump to $400k than for the rookies to jump to 250k?

Try also looking at Mzungu and I. Smith (neither of whom started the season), Danniel Harris, Sam Illes, Danny Stanley, Curnow, Liberatore and Duigan. The RIGHT rookies make you that much money – and unless your trading strategy/luck is perfect, some end up being keepers (actually some end up being keepers because they deserve it regardless of initial price). I Smith and Mzungu for instance outscored some of my Premiums over the Supercoach finals.

Just remember prices fluctuate some more then others. Just get the rookies low and sell them high. Heppell would have been priced more then that at one point during the season. Curnow, Swallow and Harris would have got you $200-250K I think last year.
When you have Lake, Hargrave and Ellis your most likely going to have to trade them out therefore you use three trades. Whereas Shaw and two rookies means you use two trades. In saying this i think two-three midprices throughout your team are fine spech when they are going to rise in money similar or better then your average rookie like Porps and Lake ect. If you get Hayes you need him to be a keeper (not likely IMO as won’t be in the top 6-10 mids) therefore your wasting a trade.

I don’t agree with Jimbo that getting someone like Hayes is a “waste of a trade” if he is not going to be a keeper – that’s a vast oversimplification. Depending on how well he scored, it may very well be valid to select him from the start even if he is eventually going to be traded out. For instance, last year I had Cotchin knowing I would trade him out just before his bye for Gary Ablett just AFTER his bye. He went up in price by a bit less than the best rookie, but ensured I was still keeping up with other people as regards points until I upgraded (Cotchin was priced about the same as Hayes is this season, but was clearly underpriced in my estimation). Made money, avoided two byes and kept up on points – those are valid reasons for selecting an underpriced “mid price” non-keeper.

Hmmm valid points Damien…
Maybe it’s not about cementing a set structure in place, but adapting throughout the season to pick up the players that will get you the most value throughout the season… If it means picking up a Mzungu or Smith 3-4 weeks into the season, then whatever team you start with doesn’t really matter all that much really… Whether you use GnR or a mixture of GnR with mid-pricers or an all mid-pricer team, it’s the pickups during the year that makes a bigger difference than who you start with.

Always worth waiting till rookies have played 3 when you pick them up through the year. Price won’t rise until after that third one and anything can happen in that extra game.

Um – not ALWAYS, just usually. If you can wait till they’ve played 2 before upgrading then great (if they’ve played 3 as you suggest, they would have already gone up in price before you selected them prior to their 4th game). Life ain’t always perfect though. If Magner is about to play his second game, and you need another mid or you will cop a donut, then lock him in. Circumstance is what dictates your actual moves, not ideal scenarios, unless you are afforded the luxury of being allowed that ideal scenario (I traded in Isaac Smith prior to him playing 2 games last year, because it was what my team needed – I had to trade someone in, and I felt he would be the best choice. Not “ideal”, but a choice was required to avoid the zero and it all worked out as I thought it would – better than picking some anonymous hack just because they had already played 2 games instead).

Gaff- Love the man, will breakout this year i think. But then again, in your mids you probably only want keepers front the top 10 mids at end of season. Just can’t see him averaging over 110. But one to look out for the future
Clarke- I don’t think so, but could prove a massive POD, but to risky for mine.
Reid- Don’t mind this one, Pod and could definitely average over 90. Take the risk.
Walsh- Awkwardly priced so no for mine
Riewoldt- im seriously considering him, looks in great touch. Another solid pick.

To be honest with you I beleive you need to spend a fair portion of that bank money you have before anyone can really rate your squad.

God, Heater, Fish, Brought, Ellis, Bugg, Smedts (Darley, Brown)
GAJ, Boyd, Joelwood, Watto, Masten, Reid, (Magner, Old Mac)
Sauce, Redden, (Giles, Big O)
Buddy, Fyfe, Pav, Dusty, Dangermouse, Porps, Sexton, (Izzy, Couch)
$700.00 left in the kitty
I don’t know whether or not that I am happy with this team as it goes away from pure prem/rook strategy but I am not sold on a number of rookies and have real concerns about a lot of them being vested when they do get a call up whereas Dangermouse, Porps(if uninjured) and Masten could really be set for big years and will not see a lot of pine time.

Very similar side Juddy. And I reckon even the ‘Pure’ Prem/Rook tactic needs at least one mid pricer somewhere, unless you wanted 200k in the bank. I have Old Mac also, just not sold yet on how long into the season he is going to go, and if that is the case, I’d probably rather a kid who would average 60′s that will play all year. Don’t think he has any more big scores in him.
Also, Going to stay away from Folau. Good Luck to him, but he looks lost.

Colin Sylvia is suspended from Round 1. Although it is not a head to head round, i would personally take it as an Omen / hint that the bloke is trouble. Goodes or Pav instead of Sylvia would be my recommendation. If your money does not stretch that far then get rid of Pettard for one of the GWS rookies i.e. Devon Smith who is cheaper and also DPP.
Stevie J is very much an up and down man, switching for a Goodes or Pav would probably give you more over a season.

Ok look, I hate supercoach gold, got the free version and I think it’s pointless and would be a waste of money to buy but…. It’s getting me slightly worried that my projected round 1 total is 1661, I made some changes and it dropped 150 points (was 1800 and something yesterday) but I think the team I made now and currently have is better. What are your thoughts.

I had gold last year, the projected score is not even close to what usually ends up happening. Also remember that it doesnt include a score for rookies who havent played a game, so if your starting line up has say 9 rookies all who have never played a senior game thats 9 donuts!

A little light in the ruck division IMO. Nic Nat is getting plenty of love lately but I’m not sure he can hold up a 1/3 ruck combo on his own. You could probably get away with one less MID and invest in a top shelf ruck man.

You might be getting a little ahead of yourself with your trade plans hamo but it never hurts to look forward. Despite some obvious guns missing from the starting line up, it looks surprisingly solid. You’d want to be pretty lucky for things to pan out as you’ve outlined above.
I’d turn Reid into Porplyzia and with the spare 110K upgrade at least one of those DEF mid pricers to premium (Suckling? Hargrave? Lake?).

That’s the $600,000 question hamo. I can’t decide. I’m a big fan of set/forget rucks but this year the ruck rookies are doing everyone’s head in. The quality of these rookies suggests they will not only get good game time (JS = Job Security) but will also score solid points.
If you only have one premium ruck, you can save loads of cash (around 400K) to spend elsewhere to improve other lines. The downside comes if/when the rookies don’t perform or worse, your premium ruck goes down (e.g turf toe) and you’re left without any cash to do anything about it.
Another reason for loading up with ruck rookies is the uncertainty surrounding the quality of rookies in other lines. This suggests you’re better to have more premiums in other lines and less dependence on the performance of these rookies.
There is a third option (1:1:2) which brings in a ‘mid price’ ruck for those who want a bit each way. I’m currently in this school of thought with Mumford: Kreuzer: Giles: Redden. This saves around 200K which is the difference between having 1-2 mid pricer vs premium in DEF/FWD.
Hope this helps to make the decision.

ha, no it doesn’t help make the decision
, but it does make alot of sense, what hurts most is all three will make money (gile ,redden big o), but giles and bigo esp have very tough start to season , and mummy and cox will kill it first 6 rounds, (also mcevoy,jacobs will hold there own first six too) this factor is what makes it tuff for me.
Do i break a supercoach rule and sell pre ruck around 6/7th round and bye franklin or pre mid, or just keep too pre rucks for season, or tuff out the firts 6 rounds with one rookie on feild?
if one of rookie rucks can avr 70-82points in first 6rounds=adv gained
if they dont and ie coxs av 133 first 6 =lost adv?

I like Howard over Lake/Hargreave and Bower is too cheap to ignore considering Carlton’s injuries right now. No Goodes a massive risk I know, but something had to give!

I liked his for at the end of last year and so far in nab cup, but im concerned that his forward role may impact on his scoring come the season proper. (plus he has that suspension for rounds 1 and 2. He does offer a POD though.

I heard Vossy on 5AA radio a couple of weeks ago & he said Zorko would be a good pick up mid season however it sounded like after the injury he would not be playing in the first few rounds. Maybe go Tomlinson of GWS instead so that as a FOR / DEF he links up with Smedts.
Check out Neale a bit further as i’m sure i heard he may now be doubtful for round 1??
Morabito is cheap, however again injury will delay him starting the season so Round 1 start very unlikely at this stage.
Is Pfeiffer still rookie listed? D.Smith from GWS could be a good option for any of your 4 rookies listed above.

Getting 13 or so premiums / guns locked in and then ensure all your rookies have the maxium chance of playing the majority of the first 6 to 10 games is the key to ensuring that you can cash them in & have a team of stars for the end of the season. Morabito & Zorko etc can be picked up after their 2nd game once two of your original cash cows are ready to be cashed in for 1 x gun and 1 x rookie prior to their price rise.

Pendlebury averaged almost 130 last year and played every one of the 22 Games. Scored over 140 8 times, including 160pts on 3 occasions – And when he put the foot down in the NAB Game v. Adelaide, he looked real sharp. Worth every cent in my book. Others think different and fair enough. I would assume that they believe he will come down in price over the first 3 rounds. Keep in mind his first 3 rounds last year had an average of 125. Up to you mate.

If Pendlebury averages only 125 over the first 3 rounds this year, his price will come down by a lot – as the rookie prices (even more rookies this year) increase, any Premiums (especially Ultra Premiums) who are not significantly increasing their averages from last year, will experience quite a price drop. However, I would suggest that since this price drop will be ongoing, people should not trade an Ultra Premium in after the initial price drop (after round 3), but should wait for the ongoing price drops they will incur as the rookies and underpriced mid-pricers keep rising in price.

@Damen – Completely agree mate. His price will come down gradually. At a guess I reckon he will finish around the 640k mark by years end. My theory was more directed at the fact that I personally don’t see the point in leaving him out if I am going to get him eventually. I’d rather keep the trades and the rookies for something else. Happy to wear the lost cash because I don’t think it will be a massive amount firstly, and secondly, you can’t put a price on trades. But its a hard one isn’t it? Same could be said for any of the blokes above $640k. Gotta love SC

Strategy with this team is to be trading early only in DEF and FWD. Hence why
it is a little weak in those areas at the moment. DEF Rookies should play most games early on. So will be concentrating on FWD for the first few rounds unless something goes pair shaped. I am confident with this team, just hoping you blokes could cast and eye over it and advise me if I am unaware of something massive. Like an LTI

Appreciate the Thumbs Up boys.
Just got 3 concerns though that have been doing my head in every time I look at them.
1) Yagmoor – Where is he at in the race for a Running DEF spot with Clarke? Just worried over his size and think he will be isolated very quick if he starts down back. Any coach would be out of their minds not too. Is he worth the punt? Or is there a better option?
2) Old MacDonald – Guaranteed game time. But I haven’t worked out what his role is, especially considering that Sheedy’s concerns about playing kids may have been eased somewhat, by some of their performances, and may have gone ahead of him.
3) Hall – Loved how he went about it early on in the NAB. And rested with a tight hammy isn’t a huge concern. Worried moreso, about his Job Security when they have a full squad to pick from, especially when Bock is back and swung up forward. Reckon that changes Halls role significantly from what we saw, and maybe even his scoring potential..
If I were to change these 3, who are your out and out must haves.

Hey kirsty
ur team looks alright but heres a few things i would change imo’
Def-pretty strong got some good premos and some good rookies but not sure about clarke just see how he goes ths week but bowere could be a good choice if his named rd1
mids-ur premos are vey good just keep an eye on some of ur rookies magner with his injury im pretty sure shiel is injured he was seen a few weeks ago in a moon boot wich is a worry. and keep ur eye on stevens this week if he performs jump on ive had him in and out of my side alot. Toby greene could be a good pickup aswell as clay smith and maybe chad wingard if u wanna spend the coin.
Rucks-not sold on berger maybe kreuz or mummy if u can afford him rookies look good tho.
fwd-Just watch ur rookies saad might have to compete for the sae spot as milne not sure about his js and zorko i think is still injured the rest look good.
I hope this helps good luck for the season……….

Looks good Mitch.
Barlow’s injury concerns have turned me off him. The upside could be that everyone else has turned off him too so if he does pay off he will be a fanatstic POD. Hasn’t been sighted in the NAB Cup and in serious doubt for RD1.
Maybe downgrade Barlow for a rookie and with the extra cash upgrade Sam Reid (tall forward, won’t score enough or consistently).

nothin wrong with ur premos maybe suckling to birchall imo 1premo3rookie ruck strategy is risky but alot of people a doing it.I would just keep an eye on ur rookies im pretty sure Magner,gibson, and neale are injured and in doubt for rd1 imo congilio is to much maybe go for a cheaper option to save a bit of coin there a few good cheaper mids clifton,Greene, D,Smith, C,Smith,Miles.
i hope his helps good luck…..

Suckling to Birchall
Mohr to Spurr
Coniglio to C. Smith
Neale to Kerridge
Magner to J. McDonald

Nice team mate, will be close to the cookie cutter with a couple of PODs in Hodge and Newman. Like the latter but I think Hodgey’s scoring ability is still overated from the time he spent loose in defence. Makes too many clangers in the midfield to go to elite for mine.
Couldn’t fit Parker in eh!

Thanks for the reply Deano. Hodgey is now injury free unlike last year and can knock up scoring 150+ games without batting an eyelid, great value imo. Peter may still find a spot still haven’t decided yet

Was thinking about Hodgey this morning and wondered what peoples thoughts were, I too think he is good value. Limped into the season last year but has had a good solid pre season.
As you say PA can make having a 150+ point game look like shelling peas.
As a Hawks supporter with a man crush on our skipper I do find it hard to rationalise his true worth this year as a super coach elite as my bias tends to get in the way.

The Neo-Classical Mid Price Strategy.
Many GnR purists would have plenty to argue with this line up but to the naked eye, this looks quite impressive. You’ve managed to cram in plenty of value from the likes of Lake, Bower, Porplyzia, Guthrie, whilst grabbing some of the favoured higher priced rookies in the bargain (Coniglio, Wingard, Tomlinson). All this and you’ve still got a healthy ruck division AND a solid head count of 12 premium (+/-). Keep and eye on the Rd 1 rookies, give it a final tweak, throw in a set of steak knives, and I’m sold!

Looks like you’ve given this a real crack Jontee. I give you credit for putting up a very original submission to the panel. But, contrary to tomo’s effort (see above), your mid price strategy would appear to have more holes in it than a cheese shop in Stockholm.
I’d put a red pen line through the following straight away – Toovey, McGuane, Glass, Brown, Boseley, Morabito, Winderlich, Caddy, Patton
Then try to squeeze in 2-3 more premiums in DEF and another 1 in FWD. With a little more rookie research you should be able to trust the young guns to take you through the first half of the season.

Roughy will take some time to get back up to pace, so his price should drop considerably over the first few rounds. He’s starting as the sub this week, so will have very limited game time/preparation. Perhaps wait until his price has bottomed out and then maybe upgrade a ruck rookie. That’s my plan anyway!

Hey Ang, in that case I think that the rookies job security will be your biggest concern, so lose Gibson and Pfieffer (rookie listed and may not be elevated, well he may but thats the risk you are taking) Question marks over Magnet and Morris as well. Didak has to go as well.Hall may be right for round 1 and Smedts is not guaranteed of starting round 1 either. Dont forget to name a captain and Emergencies! Hope this helps.

One of my more favoured setups at present makes use of the interesting backline potential available this year.
DEF: Shaw, Broughton, Lake, Hargrave, Ellis, Bugg, Darley (Yagmoor, Turnbridge)
MID: Pendlebury, Ablett, Murphy, Boyd, Selwood, Neale (Gibson, Kerridge)
RUC: Cox, Redden, (Giles, Stephenson)
FWD: Franklin, Goodes, Fyfe, Martin, Christensen, Porplyzia, Smith. D, (Smedts, Hall)
The setup ends up being 12.4.14. The sacrifice in my backline is offset by my MID and FWD being very well set with likely top 7 players that will (hopefully) not need to be touched. Early trading strategy would obviously be to upgrade my backline. Rookie Turnbridge is in there purely for DPP use, so that Smedts can cover if need be.

Great team. Only possible option is to change Burgoyne for say Broughton down back, however Burger offer reasonable option and should get you around the 80 points mark (however consider that a great rookie could get you this as well).
As you say, maybe a bit of work on a couple of the rookies, however we will know more by middle to end of next week. Not sure on a few you have but Tomlinson or another FOR / DEF DPP would go nicely with Smedts down back. Also double check you have a MID / DEF DPP as you have Godd & Lids both as DEF / MID DPP’s who I am sure have the same week for the bye

Looks pretty awesome mate thumbs up from me.
However IMO, Goodes is always over-priced for his performance at the start of the season, he’ll play average, he’ll drop price, then mid-season (usually around rnd14 for him) he will come and and blitz it… so pick him up later.
Also coxy bit too pricy for me, maybe mumford or even z.smith, he’ll do well this year now as no.1 ruck (and he’s only around 440)
otherwise nice team

Lots of potential flexibility, but a few issues there mate. Dick and Varcoe are injured. You’re better off downgrading a Varcoe to a rookie and upgrading McGlynn and one of Masten/Dollhouse to premiums. Also, I would swap Fyfe with Pfeiffer, trade him for another mid rookie as he is still rookie listed I think. Also, this should bring Wingard onto the field. He’s too expensive too be sitting on the pine. The TRR strategy is a risk, so you’ll want to make sure all your rookie rucks are playing. Derix is has fallen off the pace. Redden from Port looks like he’ll get some games early.

Lake feels like such a gamble doesn’t he, could pay off big though. So does passing on Cox though. Should be much easier to upgrade Lake to a prem defender later (if he isn’t prem himself), rather than chasing Cox.

I dont think its worth the risk. for me, he is not going to end up in the top 10 mids so you’ll want to trade him. Might as well start with a rookie and make some coin and then upgrade to an elite when the price is right

Gone way to strong in midfield your structure is a worry. Personally I would downgrade both Boyd and Watson and then upgrade two rookies in your forward line to premiums. However one of those downgraded would still be alright. Remember the best premiums are in the midfield and thats where your going to get good money and points from those rookies

gday noname
Backs-Not sold on adcock because of his past injury worries if his fit and firing he could average 100+ i would see how he goes this weekend the make a decision.
mids-i would ditch hayes his not gonna give ya consistant high scores i would downgrade caddy to maybe ronald or another rookie theres plenty of good rookie mids, and then upgrade hayes.
rucks-imo 1premo 3rookie strategy is risky but ya got 3 good rookies and a premo that wont let you down so it could be a risk that pays off.
fwds-i would look at another option than riewoldt imo fwds that play midfield roles will score more and i cant see jack being one of those players. and i would go for a cheaper rooki option than cripps apart from that fwds look good. hope this helps good luck

Love ur mids and fwd line but because these are so strong ur def and rucks are in a little bit of struggle town. I agree with defence not needing to be as strong as other lines as you have much more potential on making up bigger points by spending the big bucks in other lines, but i dont think Maric is the man to be able to carry your whole ruck line. If you are going for the 1/3 tactic for your rucks I really think u need an elite ruck as your number one. If you have the dollars I would suggest changing Maric to a Cox/Mumford who are proven consistent large scorers.

hmmmm I would suggest maybe upgrading Murph to a GAJ or Pendles… that way you have a certified captain… as of right now I don’t really see anyone that’s a must captain.
maybe your rucks as well. Daw and McNamara aren’t really the best cheapies available, you’re better off spending the extra 13k and going with Giles over 1 of those guys…
Also maybe swap the Selwood’s Scott for Joel… You have much higher potential with Joel than Scott.

spend as much as you can to have a good starting team, but a bit of cash left over will help you upgrade players later on maybe around 10K in the bank, you’ll be kicking yourself later on if you want to upgrade someone but you are just a few thousand short. 10K-20K would be nice but like i said spend as much as you can to have a good team

i love having cash left over (330K for me!!!)
Believe it or not but i have a 9:7:14 format, i have a lot of players around 400 that should move up in price and when some Guns drop price (ie. pendles, buddy, juddy), i can basically upgrade a midprice for a gun for only 100K! of course its not the safest way to start the season (hoping for players to rise/drop) but i would definately have at least 50K in the kitty for the reason that Bill stated.

A premium is a player that is generally valued $500k and over and thats gonna score consistant high scores for your team.Rookies are generally first year players but can allso be second or 3rd year players if theyve vhad injury interupted seassons or lack of opportunity such as billy schmedt, or koby stevens.Guns n Rookie strategy is just filing your teams with Premiums and rookies in every line of your team.

and bargins/midpricers are those that arent rookies and are below 500K (eg Lake) and ‘Guns’ are those 600K or over (eg Juddy)
and some terms you’ll see around here are:
-POD= point of difference player, a player that will make a difference to a team/ teams play. like someone who is incredibly fast, can burst through any pack, jump like a giant, never miss a target or dodge any player etc.
-DPP=Dual position player (ie Martin who plays both mid and fwd), handy to have these guys in your team especially when they play mid and you put them in your back/fwd line, rule of SC’s thumb is that mids score the most points
-IMO= In my opinion
ask if there’s anything else u need to know

That’s what I thought. I want to make some money and then pick up Pendles or Swanny, Cox, Franklin etc….
Hmmm, it’s soooo hard! I do love it though.
What other strategies do you mean?
Thanks dazz

theres guns n rookies strategy which putting in premiums and guns in everline egya mids might be Swan,Judd,Murphy,Boyd,Clifton,Magner,Couch,Gibson
Or you can have a mixture of guns/mid pricers/rookis eg
swan,murphy,boyd,Barlow,Lucas,Congilio,C,Smith,Gibson there two of the more popular strategies

Backs: certainly unique – not sure about brown or puopolo. Not sure how good yagmoor and webberley’s job security is
Mids: I don’t like mid priced midfields – get rid of Robinson, mcveigh, gaff and coniglio and bring in players like ablett, selwood, murphy – not sure your bench players are ideal
Rucks- your ruck bench should be two of Giles, Reddan and Stephenson
Fwds- you need buddy, Bradley and fasolo need to be replaced – look at fyfe, goodes, Martin, Pav etc
So overall team needs a fair bit of work

yeah good advice but IMO gaff and coniglio are keepers
I’d also downgarde McIntosh and upgrade nic nat. and get rid off mitchell and put in selwood.
Dazz is also right, fair bit of work is needed here, but my advice is to just read all of our comments up and down the page and see what we (everyone) have to say about anything and everything, trust me that will help heaps

Backs-looks good but not sure about brown i think theres better options
mids-strong midfield but IMO i wouldnt have two premiums in the same line until after the byes if you can help it. might get yaself in a bit of trouble swan,and pendles both there.
Rucks-Very strong but i think sandi is to much
fwds-looks good hope this helps…………

2. if i downgraded one of my premiums (swan or pendles) who would you suggest? and downgrade to who?
3. i’ve been considering switching sandi for mcevoy, or with the possible extra cash from down grading a premium mid and what not i may have enough to get cox.
what are your thoughts on these thing?

It might be just me but why put premium DDP in the midfield, you do not want them there. Stick them in the Back or Forward. The young rookie Midfielders are the ones which will generate you the cash. Send Deledio back get rid of one of your back rookies, then put someone like McDonald, Conglio, wingard, C Smith in the midfield. Also your rucks need some work.

drop pendles for boyd and mumford for cox.
pendles is too expensive and you dont want to be chasing cox this season.
id also swap sidebottom for dangermouse but maybe goodes as well for someone like pavlich. then maybe get fyfe in your mid and swap mcdonald for a rookie forward like smedts.i know that leaves 3 rookies in your forward line but i’m personally considering trading martin for nahas (maybe) which would allow you to upgrade saad to someone like porps.

Personally wouldnt have Yarran, Johncock, Lake, Roberts-Thompson, Priddis, Coniglio (too expensive) Wingard (too expensive) Ryder, West, Cloke, Petrie…
Basically, id be doing a re-vamp unless you are trying to get away with risk taking options (high risk, possibly high reward) but doubt it…

Thanks Catta. Seems the nearer to crunch time the closer the teams get. Key differences seem to be Ruck strategy and the mix of Mid Pricers (Dangerfield, Porplyzia, Lake, Hargraves, Bower, Clarke et al). In this latest version, I’ve dispensed with all of them and gone to more pure GnR. Feels good, although I’m still caught on the fence with Kreuzer at R2.
RE: 3 Tigers – I’m hoping this won’t be an issue until Rd13 (bye) by which time I’ve moved one or both of these on.
RE: Gibbo… hmmm not sure what to do there.. not much cash for u/g from 94K. Maybe Couch? His DPP could be handy.
RE: Magner… happy to wait til Rd 2 if necessary.

With Sylvia’s injury today, that could be an excellent call on Couch!
Also with the Tiges, Morris did play 84% game time today & did quite well 90 DT points………..with Ellis only playing 56% for 56 DT points. My thoughts up until todays game was Dimmer would play either Ellis or Morris not both…now I’m not sure myself, he might/could play both quite effectivley!

Good team across the lines, only thing to be weary of is the potential green vest on both Koby Stevens & Kerridge.
btw, Malceski could be a great POD this season as shown in todays game….122 DT points albeit v’s GCS, solid game for him!

ach the green vest. gotta hate it as a supercoacher.
thanks for that havnt considered it with definately consider switching kerridge. any idea who to switch for around that price who is a mid/fwd?
stevens is a gun and hes gonna make me some serious cash this year.
his breakeven is about 30 and im expecting him to average about high 80′s if he plays a full game. even if he does come on as a sub at half time hes an explosive young gun who can rack it up in a short period of time so he can still get 60 in a half which is double his breakeven.

Just looking over your team again, you can swap D Smith to the guts & put Hall on the ground in the fwd line & Kerridge on the bench. As for other Mid/fwd Pfeiffer ( port ) if you have the xtra $11k or so, Sexton
( gc ) $106k…apart from that the well is dry for mid/fwd rookies with js in that price range!

Omen v SoftSocks
Priddis v Redden
McDonald v Wingard

I just think with simon black and rockliff he isn’t likely to cop a tag and gets a fair bit of the footy, he has averaged around 125DT points per100 minutes of game time in the nab cup, but i agree he may be sacrificed for say pendles if the opportunity presents itself during the season.

That would leave 5 rookies + Lake on that line though, you don’t think that’s a bit risky or leaves that line too weak?
Also what are thoughts on having 3 GWS low cost players in the midfield? Risk there?

Question marks over rookies lots of your choices are going to be good but some are injured or not playing for some reason. Buntine, Talia, Mitchell and Zorko.
Others might not get games early until injury opens up spot (this opinon will change when teams are announced though) = Pfeiffer, Saad and Smedts.
Buntine – Bower/Clarke
Talia – Ellis (lock)
Mitchell – Magner (should play round 1 if not round 2 and he will kill it early)
And if you can get some money maybe get Porps in your forward line, he has easy run early in year so will rise in money quickly and although he is a midprice I think of him as an expensive rookie that will gain in price as fast if not faster then any other rookie.
Your premiums are all really solid one concern is Stevie J I think Fyfe/Dusty/Chapman are better picks although its your choice.

One of the most balanced teams I’ve seen dazz!
Apart from what you’ve already mentioned, there’s not much to talk about. Maybe think hard about getting Magner on the Mid bench. He won’t be far off and you’d rather not have to burn a trade to get him before that bubble bursts.
Rd 1 rookies will make the final tweaks obvious. Have a few days off before the flood gates open.

For what it’s worth Karnezis, I think most of your rookies look pretty good & have quite resonable job security! Spurr to Darley in defence, Horsley to Shiel in the guts & Sandilands to Mummy might just be 3 to consider IMO.
With your changes you mentioned… Gibson is still on the rookie list I’m pretty sure, there is talk of Wingard not quite being ready to step up, so watch for r1 selection before putiing them in your line up mate!
Don’t listen to all posts as some of them have no merit, like the one from Clarky! As the thumbs down indicate NO backing from the real SCT coaches that want to lend a helping hand when needed!

Karnezis, don’t listen to that w@n^*r, there may be better options for you than Mac & Horsley, but, there are more appropriate methods of communicating that than what this moniker has decided to employ. I’d look @ Shiel, Ledger, L.Brown, maybe Miles, Kennedy-M/F, Neale or a Coniglio or Wingard.
Kerridge/Cameron may be worth swapping for others, but there are worse rookies you could’ve chosen.
I can see what logic you’ve used constructing your team, and although, it is not the way that I’ve gone, it is logical and has merit to it. Good luck this year mate.

Hey, I’m not an authority on SuperCoach but I’ll put in my two cents worth after u helped me
I like Lake and Christensen, I was too scared to put them in due to their price range and being hard to rise a lot in price, but i think you might be onto something! Ur Ruck is really strong! Overall its a great team really, IMO.

Hmmm. You appear to be taking a few mid priced risks there HGL but by running the 2/2 in your rucks then some sacrifices have to be made. Overall I think your team is very solid and providing at least a couple of the mid-priced fire then you will be a force to be reckoned with.

Love your rucks & yes it may really work well… but I think it affects your defence & forward lines from having 4 genuien premiums in each line IMO! This way you have 12 premiums keeping the great looking ruck combination of Cox/Mummy but downgrading 1 of them to a rookie, will give you that extra premium in both defense & forward lines…..13 premiums overall!
I know you probarly know this, but it just stood out to me when overlooking your team HGL.

Maybe you could trade in one of Lake or Hargrave and take Clarke who is cheaper. I’d also consider dropping at least one of your Freo forwards for another cheapie like Jamie Cripps or Aaron Hall and also one of your premium mids for another rookie such as Clay Smith. This should free up enough money for at least one decent ruckman and give you a bit more room for improvement throughout the season.

This team is bit of a mid pricers special and IMO you’ll need to burn too many trades to be competitive later in the season as other sides cash in their rookies for more guns. Most of your lines look like they really only have two keepers in them. Your forward line looks very light on for stars. Good luck though… nice to see something a bit unusual.

An interesting side with not a lot of firepower in the mids at this stage. Could be a work of genius if you can get the trades right and get some value out of the more dicey players like Lake, Porpoise, N Roo, Dangerfield, Malceski and Hargraves.

Personally, I’m not a fan of leaving so much money in the bank. Ideally, you don’t want to be trading until about round 7 or 8, so that’s a lot of time to be playing with a quarter million less on the park than anyone else

DPP links are not that important this year. Maybe when the byes come round they will be but not before hand. Also with the new rading rule of being able to trade a midfielder for a forward without either having DPP eligibility and therefore opening up that link (I cbf fully explaining it). But its fine to start with no DPPs in the mids then before the bye either use that new rule or Zorko/Brown could have played a few games and trade them into the midfield to open that link. It was important last year as byes occured every week.
Suckling is a good pick should of matured from last year and should increase his scoring ability.

Great team.
Only critique would be 5 DPP’s in forwards but no curernt link in mids. I liked seeing Juddy in there, but how about a Goodes or Pav in the mids instead of Boyd or Juddy?
Morris instead of Darley incase he does not play in the next few week for some reason.

Zorko very unlikely for Round 1. Voss on radio a month ago said watch him for supercoach midway through the season due to him recoving from injury.
Ellis and Saad should be named and probably both not sub material.
Smedts in with a shout.
Magner coming back from the finger injury still probably a good chance for Round 1 due to Sylvia being out, however he may be a likely sub or subbed as per Shiels was coming back from injury for GWS.
Wait until teams named & you should get to know on Tigers before lockout.

Don’t think Magner will be subbed because of his injury. A dislocated finger wouldn’t have disrupted his pre-season fitness wise and he would only have off the track for two weeks at the most so his touch will still be there.
Have to wait and see the teams to see if there are more obvious vest candidates or not but I reckon Neeld will want his hardness at the contest out there for four quarters.

My crystal ball’s getting polished at the moment but I’ll have a crack at this one anyway:
Ellis and Magner are both very safe bets.
I think Saad is a huge chance of getting the vest. Saints could see him as an impact player and use him the same way the Hawks used Luke Breust last year.
Smedts I still have in my team at this stage without being totally confident of him getting a gig RD1. I might stick with him even if he doesn’t get named though, for two reasons. Firstly, the Cats rate him big time so he will get a crack and while he didn’t set the world on fire in the NAB Cup he still did show a few glimpses of class. Secondly, If I pick him in the backline then he gives me a lot more options if/when the Porpoise breaks down or if I pick him in the forward line he does the same if/when Lake breaks down.
Zorko won’t play RD1 and hopefully not for another 5 or 6 games after that. We are going to need some quality downgrade targets and he is right near the top of my list at the moment.

It’s different from the cookie cutter sides that’s for sure. If your Backline does better than expected then this will give some good scores week to week but I am not sure it is going to be strong enough to win your league though. Not sure Grimes will be back for R1 and I think Sandi is in doubt as well. I don’t mind your forward line though.

Sidebottom is suspended for the first 2 weeks. How about Martin of the Tigers or Robbie Gray of Port as M/F DPP alternatives to Sidebottom as they are probably better options than Sidebottom anyway.
Also on the DPP front you have 2 DEF / MID DPP’s in DEF and 5 FOR / MID DPP’s in the forwards but no links for either of these in the Mids. If you are strapped for cash and cannot afford Martin, Gray or Pav in the mids rather than Lenny Hayes, Dangerfield could be a good option to open up the DPP’s. Alternatively, put Goodard or Delidio into the Mids instead of Lenny and put Broughton or similar in defence so that you have a DEF / MID DPP in each area.

Hey guys first season doing supercoach, after 2 months of research I think I’ve finally come up with my final team, I’ve gone all out in the mids because that’s where the most points will come from, and I’m pretty happy with my premium and rookie selections in other positions so I don’t think it’s a huge problem having so many premiums in one position.

A little different from people I wanted to set my backline and forward line from start. Milk the midfield rookies as they are the best cash cows. So a lil risky but im fine with that. No Goddard as his pre-season hasn’t set the world on fire but could regret that. Gonna cop Zaha as an essendon supporter hopefully average close to 100 with us needing speed through the midfield should get time in there. And Danger I think will get up to around 90-100 average so will be a forward premium, should be in top 10 forwards. Easy early run and run home isn’t too bad. Been put in leadership group and out of contract so needs to impress.

Who pressed that thumbs down. Shame!
Dusty will play 80% midfield compared to Jack being stuck with up and down scores in the forward line. They are also trying to get more options and be a little bit less jack-concious. Can’t help him.

1) Superstar Midfield: I class Mzungu as a prem and Magner as a 400k + player by the end of the year.
2) Will have a Superstar Ruck with a few games of experience. I think Kreuzer will go up price about…. 100k if he keeps it up. Also Giles will be a Zac Smith of last year he could turn into a second prem.
3) I think your backline is really good with a 4:2:1 stradegy. I think this could really help you down the track, you have thought through the midpricers with two good prem petential players at the end of the season.
4) Forward line is weakest position but if you put that line against some other coaches teams that have the 3 good positions and 1 risky that would be one of the bests. I really like Kennedy but not sure about Hall and Smith.
5) All together a great side, I like it
