DEF: Hurn, Williams, Bsmith, Moore, S collins, J Clark, Dursma and Hore
MID: Macrae, Cripps, Dusty, Crouch, Crouch, Libba, Walsh, Butters, Constable, B scott, Gibbons
RUC: Grundy, Gawn, Bines
FWD: Danger, Heeney, Darling, Greene, Setterfield, Drew, Petruccee, Parker.
Thoughts Team?
Guys in consideration are Lycett for Gawn, Oliver for Dusty, Lloyd for Darling (via Moore). Also Ridley.
Looks great. One concern. Think Dusty will play FWD too much, at least until Caddy returns. Prediction: won’t improve on last year until then.
Good luck!
Suprised to see Darling in only 3% of teams. Average of 88 (inc finals) last year doesn’t look great. But if you take out the two games he was injured (round 11 and round 22) his average pushes upto 96.6 which puts him just outside the top 6 forwards of 2018.
Also have to consider that he didn’t look right for a number a weeks after his injury in round 11.
Scoring before round 11: 89, 112, 90, 120, 42, 112, 132, 125, 181, 81 (average of 108.4).
Scoring after returning from injury (excluding round 22 injury game): 68, 93, 62, 95, 39, 110 (average of 77.8).
Last year I felt like he started to hit his peak and wasn’t just a tease as he had been in the years before. Feel like if he never got injured would be a lock in most teams this year. Healthy JLT scores of 96 and 101 and with JK injury prone and getting older, likely to be a focal point of WC’s forward line.
We differ by 4 players – I went 1 deeper in the fwd line and you 1 deeper in the mids – love it all.
Hurn for the POD!
Hi guys. Would appreciate your thoughts on my team. Thanks.

$209,900 left over. I’m thinking I’ll get a few players wrong so haveing some $$$ to correct that will be handy.
Bit thin in the mid, consider going up to libba from one of your rookies? Otherwise love it.
Thanks bluey. Will have a look at what I can do.
Lot of cash sitting idle … but really like the team anyway!
Hind has been upgraded to Libba. $26,800 left now.
I agree with the other comment. it wouldn’t leave you with much cash but I would go Hind to libba. and run him at m5.
great team. good luck.
Thanks casta. I’ll have a play around with it.

– Currently have 34k in the bank
– Team has a couple dillemas that I need to decide one being; do I downgrade Neale to Merrett and then upgrade Hurn to Lloyd.
– Also am i missing out on two big bargains in Libba and Smith, I would like to get one in just don’t know if dropping a premium is worth it.
– Thoughts about my team and any improvements are appreciated 🙂
Leave as is.
Ditto. Looks v solid. Good luck!
Running exact same as you concrete boots except i have
Laird instead of Hurn
Fythe instead of M Crouch and
Balta instead of Moore
Im just not sure weather Moore is worth it
I’m not including either Libba nor Smith…both fragile in my books. I’ve got my spoon ready to eat humble pie!?!

I ended up choosing the extra premium in the mid (M Crouch) and putting B Smith in defence rather than my second option that was
Laird in defence and libba as my mid pricer at m5.
I don’t know if this is the right decision but I’m gunna stick to my guns and hope it pays off.
let me know your thoughts.
Cheers.

Like most of the premium selections but if you want to strengthen your forward line an option could be
Out: J Steele, J Petrucelle
In: Z Butters, J Darling
Who’s your other defender?
Knew I was missing someone. It’s Sam Collins

Pretty happy with this team, only likely tinkering will be with rookies based on teams (do I bring Balta in etc.). Decided to go expensive up FWD given the lack of good rookies vs the MIDs. Had a lot of trouble with D1/D2 as I didn’t want to splash out on either of Laird/Lloyd assuming they’ll drop in price over the first couple of months, landed on Crisp and Andrews giving me a somewhat unique look down back that provides value and hopefully some security…
Anyways cheers for looking it over and thanks in advance for any thoughts/input

Not sure if having this much money in the bank is a problem?
Parker/Burgess/Balta as final forward rookie?
Possible spendiing options:
1. Steele to Fyfe (I’m a saints man I think Steele could take off)
2. Parker to McCarthy
3. Greene to Dunkly (don’t love it)
4. Save the money for corrective trades
Thanks coaches

OK..I feel I need some last minute tweaking with maybe dropping Beams or Duncan for another cash cow, freeing up some money to adjust my forward line. I do like taking risks tho as I rate them both highly.
Only my second season so looking to better my scores in a big way this year. Still learning the ropes from you all.

Just think it’s too heavy in the MIDs and too weak FWD.
No Danger?!?
Cavarra is injures and won’t play until at least Rd4, probably much longer given he didn’t get a run in JLT when he was fit!
Way to many rookies in your forward line. Good Luck
Hey guys,
Would love thoughts on my team! I’ve has Collins all pre season, but downgraded him to scrimshaw to be able to go Fyfe – Macrae. But I’m not sold on his JS

Just wondering boys if its worth downgrading fythe to m crouch and laird to hurn to fund moore at f4 or just run with balta on the bench.. mainly leauge focused..
Is Collins a must have? And what do we think about Hately?

Ruck – Grundy, Gawn (Bines)
Forw- Dangerfield, Heeney, Kelly, Darling, Setterfield, Drew (Petrucelle, Parker)
Higher risk D4 & D5 but not much anywhere else. I have seriously toyed with the idea of swapping Lloyd, Scrimshaw & Parker to Mills, Moore & Collins allowing Moore to float between D4 & F5 as required. I had Mills most of the pre season and I like his chances this year. If he is picked in the guts tonight and Scrimshaw also does not play, Plan B will be even more tempting !!!
Good luck to all coaches this season and thanks to all on this magnificent site
Would love some feedback on this:
DEF – Laird, Whitfield, Williams, Collins, Clark, Duursma (Hore, Burgess)

RUC – Grundy, Gawn (Bines)
FWD – Danger, Heeney, Lycett, DMoore, Setterfield, Drew (Petrucelle, Parker)
Only $3K leftover a major concern. Lycett goes against the grain I know but me loves my ruck coverage.
Great structure and selections which makes it very hard to fault. Only worry is Lycett who historically has a poor hitout to advantage rate which I don’t expect to change at his new club but his ruck cover could compensate.
An option could be
Out: P Cripps, S Lycett
In: Z Merrett/D Martin, D Mundy/J Dunkley
or even
Out: R Laird and S Lycett
In: H Andrews and D Mundy/J Dunkley
Thanks Adam. Some very good food for thought.
Think I’m pretty sorted with this team
Only real issues is F3, I’m going Tim Kelly atm but have rotated about 8 players through it.
Not too keen on middle structure with Libba at M5 but suits the layout of the team

Wish I was brave enough to pick this team.
Mills/Mcgrath/Rocky/Billings all good enough to go big and dominate, giving you a massive season.
Not sure you can rely on all of them to do it, but I’d struggle to separate them. Good luck!
Normally avoid mid pricers like the plague, except those in the ‘post-injury season’ category. Pretty set on the team and can’t ignore the value in Williams/Libba/Greene. Gutted I couldn’t find BCrouch a role, and can’t see Brodie Smith working out but he’s too highly picked to ignore, I feel.

Hi All,
Good Luck for the season.
Not sure if I should be passing on all of Smith, Libba and Greene. Had them all in at various times. I like Ryan, but if I drop him down to Smith, I could probably move a rookie up to Libba or Greene.
Keep Ryan – TU
Get Smith and Libba/greene – TD
cheers

With the 150k I’m considering BCrouch->brayshaw
Greene->darling or leave it & use it R3 for correctional trades. No doubt I’ll tinker more yet once teams drop!
Gone guns and rookies.. only mid pricer BCrouch. thoughts?

Been tinkering the past hour and settled on this with 198k in the bank

Still some money to play with. And not in love with Macrae for that amount, is he essential?
Looks like a good team, I say that because there are only 5 players different to my team, I’ve 135k in bank
You have – Laird, Watson, Crouch, Libba, Sweet
I have – Lloyd, Collins, Neale, Bines, D Moore
All the best

Not liking the JS of many of the rookies being mentioned from GEE & PTA, so trying to steer away from Clark, Constable, Duursma, Drew, etc.
Hi gents
Trying a few PODs…. Thoughts?

Last minute team:

Mid: Cripps, fyfe, yeo, m crouch, libba, walsh, constable, butters (scott, atkins, gibbons)
Ruc: grundy, gawn (reeves)
Fwd: danger, heeney, dunkley, moore, drew, setterfield (balta, petreculle)
Ive got 98k in bank so a bit of flexibility. Other than rookies the main decision im tossing up are whether to splash out on macrae for fyfe/yeo or go down to one of the value picks in dusty/merret. Also tossing up dunkley or darling.
Final thoughts??

Am still strongly considering downgrading Darling to Greene and then upgrading either a forward or backline rookie to Moore
Thoughts??

Thoughts appreciated, made a last minute decision to get Gawn in at the expense of Laird and Lloyd.
Gone a little top heavy, which also provides ruck coverage if required. Keen to hear your thoughts:
