TU – Noah Anderson
TD – Tim English
Gibcus?
Safe rookie bench option?
i think his JS is ok, there could be some management of his TOG. As a Tigers defender he should see plenty of the ball, and should be ok scorer.
What do we do with kerch and young? Im lost
I’m watching closely to see how Hayden trains today. He is currently in my team
kerch has left my team.

Can you do unlimitted trades after car v ric starts , excluding games that are played, or are those trades apart of the 40 .
Unlimited trades for the remainder of the week, however players will be locked in/out of your team and in position once their teams game gas started.
Draft league
TU Ryan Maric
TD Liam Baker (ignoring suspension)
TU: Coleman
TD: Windsor
Does anyone know what Coleman’s role is?
i can’t un-see Coleman’s price of $233k. he is basically an expensive rookie price. at that price it doesn’t matter if he plays 50/50 defence and forward, as long as his TOG isn’t managed to much, he had 74% TOG r0 and started the game at half-back. He is back in my team.
Same thoughts but after some consideration it’s Coleman for me . Price plus think he’ll gradually get better with more games under his belt and playing in a top side. Windsor looked great but was blowing hard against a weak Tigers outfit. Don’t think he has the tank to sustain a full game in the midfield but will definitely improve.
Tell me you love the squad, all feedback welcome. Tear it apart
DEF: Sinclair, Rozee, Clark, McKercher, Grlj, Jacques (Lindsay, Serong)
MID: Butters, Anderson, Dawson, Richards, Walsh, Parish, Bruhn, Smith (Carroll, Macrae, Blamires)
RCK: Jackson, McAndrew (Reidy)
FWD: Sheezel, Petracca, Flanders, Phillipou, Marshall, Dovaston (Murray, Robertson)
FLX: Lombard
Cant work out which way to go
T.u – tdk, Walsh and young
T.d – gawn, daicos, coniglio
All Feedback Welcomed.
Have been tossing up Sinclair vs another premo defender and R1 selection
DEF: Sinclair, Rozee, Clark, McKercher, Grlj, Jacques (Lindsay, Serong)
MID: Butters, Anderson, Dawson, Richards, Walsh, Parish, Bruhn, Smith (Carroll, Macrae, Blamires)
RCK: Jackson, McAndrew (Reidy)
FWD: Sheezel, Petracca, Flanders, Phillipou, Marshall, Dovaston (Murray, Robertson)
FLX: Lombard
TU: Gulden
TD: Serong
TU: Budarick
TD: Flanders
Both
TU – Bont + Windsor/Blakiston
TD – E.Richards + McKercher
TU – Windhager + J.Clark
TU Windsor
TD Blakiston
would have loved to see both play in round 0 to have a better look at them
Windsor we only saw half a AAMI game from him, but he had some good match-sim prior to that. I have liked him as a footballer the last couple of years and this might be his big moment. He had a bad run with injury last year, even spent some time in hospital, had a foot problem and did a hammy late in the year. Even without a midfield role, i would have been interested in him.
I’m not sure Blakiston is up to being the sole ruck against the big boys. He had one good quarter in the AAMI that made his score look better than it should have been. There was a game last year, i belive Round 21 against Sydney where he played the first ruck and scored 53 from 90% TOG (against Grundy). He should get at least 5 rounds as ruck, and after that should hold is place in the team as a defender.
Put this in the other thread, but might get buried now…
TU: 3rd Premo Defender (Clark)
TD: 2nd Premo Ruck (English/Gawn/Jackson/Grundy/Anyone, McAndrew Flex)
who are people thinking are the lock rookies at this point?
Based on team whispers ive rejigged the rookies on my team to be:
Grlj, Jacques, Sellwood, Serong, Lindsay
Smith, Sharp, Carroll, Blamires
McAndrew, ZZ
Phillipou, Robertson, Marshall, Lombard
any big ones Im missing? Im not sold Lindsay/Sellwood/Carroll but cant think of any guys Id prefer over them TBH.
Based on my experience small forwards like Rosa/Dovaston wont score well, and Im thinking Gibcus as a key back is not as good as the other def options. The port mid rookies have less JS than Carroll in my opinion.
i’m interested in Cook at $158k with his DPP.
feeling not right to start without a DPP on the bench in the midfield. If Macrae gets named for eagles, he will be ok, but don’t love his JS.
Who are you leaving out in favour of Cook?
i don’t have the money for Cook, macrae is in my team at the moment. If macrae not named, i then have to move the magnets
Just wondering what coaches are doing around the captains loophole.
Are coaches picking a player that they know won’t play or are you picking 31 players that are all expected to play and foregoing the loophole.
Thumbs up – non playing player
Thumbs down – foregoing loophole option.
Loophole options galore in Rounds 2 to 4 with the byes. By Round 5 chances are we’ll have a non-playing rookie.
TU: Neale
TD: Walsh
M4
Tu: Walsh
Td: Serong
Noting i already have Daicos, Bruhn, Jagga who have the bye next week
R3
Tu: Dead rook (smith)
Td: Zatoskelsky
Sorry mean white
Will take Harris Andrews’ spot for next 3.
TU: J.Daicos
TD: Mckercher
T.u – young
T.d – bruhn
Now Draper is good to go, thoughts on this ruck combo: TDK, DRAPER, McANDREW (emg). … ?
TU: Dawson
TD: Gulden
dante visentini?
At the moments its
TU: Visentini, Worrell
TD: Jackson, Gibcus
TU: C. Serong and Coleman
TD: Gulden and Windsor
TU: Walsh
TD: LDU
TU Gulden
TD Ed Richards
TU – English & LDU
or
TD – Xerri & Young
TU: Serong + Watkins
TD: LDU + Carroll
What do we think about LDU as a POD this year? Before a down year last year, averaged 110 I believe in 2023 and 2024
I don’t mind it Daz.
No early Bye, and if it doesn’t work, you can trade to someone coming off an early Bye.
I like him the most of the low $500K guys, like Oliver and Steele.
i like his price alot, but his round 12 bye is a killer.
if Young doesn’t play, i’m looking at finding the extra cash to get to LDU, like Freo said, he is the best of that $500k price bracket
Best Colby McKercher replacement?
TU: Serong/Gulden & Watkins (Port)
(Forced to downgrade sharp for $$)
TD: Take a punt on someone 540k or less & hold Dyson Sharp
TU Serong
TD Brayshaw
can’t split them on points, so the price gives Serong the nod
TU – Young, Parish
TD- N.Daicos, rookie
Not sure on midfield set up yet.
Could you run 3 premos and 4 mid prices
Young, parish, coniglio and bruhn
T.u – could work
T.d – stupid move
Gulden M6 / Budarik F3 & $100k itb TU
or
Tom Powell M6 / Flanders F3 & $60k itb TD
Any way to have both Budarick and Flanders up forward? Haven’t heard anything about Powell all pre-season so could be a masterclass or a disaster, don’t know enough to pass opinion
Would avoid Powell, all reports from North pre-season point to him gradually shifting out of the midfield group
TU: De Goey/ Rookie (Brodie) 1 bye impact
TD: Budarick/ Bruhn 2 bye impact
TU – Clark
TD – Whitfield
TU – Xerri
TD – Jackson
TU – Langford
TD – Windsor
Geelong’s Mitch Edwards ($119,900 ruc) to debut this weekend.
Interesting alternative if you had Reidy?
T/U Windsor + Parish
T/D Sinclair/Whitfield + Grlj DPP to mid, replace with Lindsay/Jaques/Serong onfield and bring in another bench rookie
TU: Bont, Dawson, Rookie
TD: Richards, Walsh, Coleman
Daniel Annable has been named to debut for Brisbane. The word is that this kid is a jet. 181K MID and was drafted 6 in the 2024 draft. Should we try and start him and save a possible trade? Or wait and watch him this week?
i assume he is replacing Suitcase
