Morning gents and gals,
Thoughts on the below, rookies are placeholders (kinda)
DEF
C. Daniel, Sicily, doch, Robertson, young, w could, worrel, bianco
MID
Macrae, Cripps, Dunkley, Bont, Oliver, Rowell, T green, M pickett, Robertson, rivers, mead
RUCK
Grundy gawn Cameron
FWD
Whitfield, Dusty, d Smith, hill, rankine, m king, hutcherson, xerri
π
Having Mccrae, Dunkley & Bont in one team to me is risky. Bulldogs have a bad game and your score plummets. They rarely all have cracking games together. Just my opinion
I have just enough to go bont or dunkley up to fyfe so have been considering that
DEF: Sicily, Houston, Docherty, Ash, Starcevich, Gould
(Brander, Greaves)
MID: Macrae, Neale, Cripps, Dunkley Oliver, Rowell, Green, Pickett
(McHenry, Roberton, Budarick)
RUCK: Grundy & Gawn (Comben)
FWD: Whitfield, Martin, D.Smith, S.Hill, Georgiades, Rankine
(King, Cameron)
121,000 in the kitty;
> Worried about Docherty, thinking of upgrading to a premo. Who though?!
> Set on the midfield, nothing changes unless injury.
> Not set on Dusty, however that all depends on which fwdβs convince me during the remainder of the marsh series. Was originally going 6 deep in the mid, however i think the 3 mid rookies on my field are a must start now.
Thoughts??? Feedback appreciated.
I too am nervous about Docβ¦
With your reserved budget, you could upgrade him to Ryan who I rate highly?
I would say Daniel, super consistent and a good POD.
DEF: Ryan, Houston, Docherty, Noble, Ash, Williamson (Greaves, Gould)
MID: Macrae, Neale, Cripps, Bont, Oliver, Rowell, Serong, Green (Pickett, McInerney, Bianco)
RUC: Grundy, OβBrien (BJ Williams)
FWD: Whitfield, Greenwood, Petracca, Bonar, Sparrow, Budarick (Cameron, Crocker)
43k remaining. Thoughts?
Most rookie selections are based on what Iβve seen during the first JLT, and likely to change if players like Williamson and Sparrow canβt find a regular spot. With injuries, I think itβs possible for Noble to find a regular spot in the team.
Please let me know what you think.
rate the noble pick
Appreciate any criticism and feedback:
Def: Ryan, Sicily, Docherty, Roberton, Ash, Gould (Brander, Rivers)
Mid: Macrae, Cripps, Dunkley, Oliver, Coniglio, Houston, Rowell, Green, (Pickett, Mchenry, Budarick)
Ruck: Grundy, Naismith (Comben)
Fwd: Whitfield, Petracca, Lynch, Smith, Hill, Rankine (Cameron, King)
Lots of DPPs in there to remain flexible.
Iβm a massive Lycett fan but his opening 5 rounds are intimidating, hence the Naismith pick aboveβ¦ hopefully he can gain some value while Lycett comes down.
Appreciate your thoughts on this variation, or reply with any further suggestions/insights.
TU: Lycett & Serong ($85k ITB)
TD: Naismith & Coniglio ($11k ITB) β existing setup
naismith has never been a good ruckman only averages 60 in the past and you will struggle to upgrade him to the likes of gawn or goldy

Still left with $45,000 left gone a stronger backline due to weaker rookies quite like this team still unsure on dawson but can upgrade him to someone like Crisp let me know your thoughts.
Like it a lot, but would make the upgrade to Crisp personally.
Iβd potentially look at S.Hill in for Bonar too

Donβt get the hype on DBJ better off downgrading him to a rookie and then upgrading georgiades because you are very weak in your forward line or upgrading Marshall to gawn and then georgiades to a Devon Smith or Jack Steven
I can see where youβre coming from but Iβm completely sold on DBJ. After RD13 last season he averaged 103, which puts him on par with the likes of Hurn and Williams. Now Houston will be playing more midfield so DBJ has sealed his position off half back.
Not phased by his first Marsh game performance? 57 SC?
Round 11 bye you wonβt have DBJ and Houston in your backline and it is best 22 still. Donβt think you can run with both. You will also be missing Marshall which gives you a donut.
Edit: Comben has R/F so can swap with Cameron. Forget the donut comment. Still could be a problem though.
Also look at your team come bye rounds. As most players donβt set a team up for that round. And by the look of it you will be missing a lot of players in one or 2 bye rounds
Currently have Docherty @D3. 120k in the kitty. Upgrade to a premo or keep?

Rookies subject to change but I feel like the ones Iβve selected are most likely for R1. Byes are spread out except in my mids (no premo has the R12 bye) β so thinking about bringing in Neale. Any feedback on how much that matters would be appreciated. I think thereβs so much value in DEF and FWD that Iβve tried to start players that I believe are slightly underpriced ahead of guys like Dusty, who shouldnβt get much more expensive until he wakes up in the back half of the year.

Tossing up between J.Martin and A.Brayshaw for F2, rookies look ok based off M1 performance s. Would appreciate anyoneβs thoughts on selections.
Cripps is set to have a poor year, considering how carlton is set for a downfall. They shouldv sacked that teague dood but anyway. And since when is liam ryan a defender, wouldnβt have crocker on the bench tho, inside talk said that he is set for serious midfield time, good try doug keep it up :))))

I realise not having Gawn could hurt but Iβm not sold on his fitness yet. Either way if nic nat can score well for the first few weeks I can at least be put in a position to afford gawn if he injures himself. Risky I know
so your not sold on gawnβs fitness yet you have nic nat who has not played over 15 games in a season since 2015

Gone with a semi-bolstered backline due to the lack of rookies
Defensive rooks are starting to show up β¦. Ash, Young, Grieves, Starc, Williams, Gould, Zerk all a decent chance.
Will young play round 1 when he hasnβt played a preseason game? Unlikely.
Ash and Zerk should play but are expensive.
Are Williams, Gould and Starcevich best 22? Doubtful.
Grieves wonβt play.
Defensive rookies are incredibly poor this year.

Ceglar looks like a high chance to be the number 1 RUC at Hawthorne which looks like that could allow him to be in the top 8 FWDs while providing cover for at the RUC line
Would be great for some feedback
Thanks
Looking more at Ceglar now that Hawthorn are considering signing another ruck in Brooksby. Suggests Ceglar has got the no 1 ruck spot for good.

Anyone else getting nervous about how many cows will be available?
Not worried yet. 42 rookie-priced players named this week, nine of them on the field. Itβll work itself outβ¦
Named on an 11 man bench doesnβt really countβ¦

Still left with $25,000 left in the bank gone a stronger backline due to weaker rookies quite like this team let me know your thoughts.
I found the Essendon fanβ¦
On the whole, I donβt mind it. Merrett, though, I just canβt get behind. Far too many better mids on offer. Top 10 mids will typically be in the 115-130 avg range, and I just donβt see Merrett cracking 110.
Feels like a lot of H2Hβs are going to have you with Merrett, and your opponent with Macrae. Has that $90k saving done enough to offset the difference?
Merritt is a tough one. Scores at leased 90 most games but rarely tops 130. I think heβs a great pick around the 500-540mark. Otherwise your costing yourself a uber who can win head to head matches. Also heβs been concussed several times now, and with how the game is treating it now, he could expect a couple week lay off for a slight knock.

Rookies as placeholders, of course, subject to selection.
Feels weird not having any top 10 defenders from last year, though my D1-3 still feels solid enough on paper.
Mids are stacked, all good. Starcevich is simply conveniently priced as a placeholder, and if not selected will hopefully be replaceable with someone cheaper.
Rucksβ¦fingers crossed on Gawn. Maybe tonight will allay some fears.
Forwards Iβm pretty comfortable with β Petracca feels right this year, better than Smith/Steven at least.
Hi there!
Just would love some feedback on my DEF
T/U β D. Robertson
T/D β G. Birchall
Who has the better scoring ability and scoring power. Roughly same price.
Cheers
So, any feedback will be appreciated β¦
My team received mainly thumbs down, with a 6 strong midfield. Does a 2/6/2/2 structure work?
One too many mids I think for most people.
Of course what truly counts as a premo is always up for debate, especially in a preseason like this.
Anybody like Rowan Marshall as second ruckman instead of Gawn? Fitness cloud worrying me
I currently have Marshall at R2 at the moment but not sold on him a Ryder in the same team. If gawn is named round 1 will probably find the cash to start him
He is playing well rn would lock him in
R11 bye, no thanks.

Fwd: Walters, D Martin, Heeney, Georgiades, Rankine, Cavarra (King, 102k player as of now)
Firstly, where are your rucks?
From what we can see, looks great, but probably unreaslistic reliance on at least nine rookies who are nowhere near round 1 start. Bianco not playing this week minimal game time last week, Rivers/Rankine/Cavarra/Mead didnβt play either week, McLennan spudded both weeks, Georgiades in best 22 before Westhoff/Ebert/Motlop/Drew looks unlikely, etc.
Now, obviously some of them you can substitute for similar cash levels, but you wonβt be replacing most of them with playing rookies without finding about $150k in extra cash. Thatβs probably only downgrading one of the premo forwards to a Devon Smith or similar, so itβs far from insurmountable problem.
My rucks are Gawndy

Noble and Ceglar are interesting picks and I actually like both of them.

Ruck: Grundy, Naismith (Xerri)
Fwd: Whitfield, Martin, Heeney, MacPherson, Davis, Sturt (D.Cameron, Rankine/King if injured)
Yep, Naismith, still going there at least until Sydney play North. Up against Goldy should decide that oneβ¦ if heβs at least a competitive 80-85+ (or within 20 points of Goldy meaning a neutralization before one gets rested) thatβs good enough.
As weβve seen overall points radically change once the gun goes out and someone monsters the understudy for 60 points in a quarterβ¦
Relying on a Houston dpp shuffle or sale of Roberton before round 11 bye, may change that depending on available round 1 rookies to Petracca and a defensive rookie.
Different HH, have toyed with Houston at D1 too, like the Mcpherson pick and i think Naismith will get some added love if he can produce that solid 80pts or so against Goldy on Monday. Gawn did look good last night and pulled up fine so its tough.
Yeah, the other option is maybe Gawn/Crocker versus Whitfield/Naismith.
Gawn is prone to slower starts, midseason slumps (mentioned elsewhere) then strong finishes, so you can certainly pick him up cheaper at some point.
But given his slow start is still probably 115 ppg itβs a lot to give up.
TU- Fyfe, Danger.
TD- Bont, Oliver
Talk of more forward time to prolong his career might reduce Fyfeβs injury risk, but they wonβt help his scoring.
Danger has been at least at a $150k discount in each of the last 3 years.
Bontβs biggest risk is having too many of Macrae/Dunkley/Bont. The umpires love him nearly as much as DUCKWOOD.
Oliver should be better after injury affected him last season, and the Dees shocking season
Btw, Iβm biased. After having both Fyfe and Danger earlier on I have Bont and Oliver now for the above reasons..
Iβm looking for pre bye points. If melbourne struggle again, will oliver? And also with the de bour and hutchinson tags early on? How will bont go with de bour x2 before the byes. Fyfe has a relativity easy opening draw and will kick goals playing fwd and also take contested marks. Danger gets more mid minutes(maby) and is probably having his last crack at a premiership.
For the safer picks iβm leaning towards Bont and clarry, but for early points Fyfe and danger seem like they might do better.
So guess i should specifically ask, which combo scores more total points by the byes?
TU-Bont, clarry
TD-Danger, fyfe.
So after tonight is gawn a lock?
Does anyone know if he pulled up Ok after a half of footy? Do the Dees play anymore Marsh?
Really want to set and forget
Another Question is β Dusty
T/U β Must have
T/D β Can live without him if it means getting Gawn
My thinking in downgrading Dusty for a 450k player gives me enough cash to get Gawn.
Cheers
I donβt think it hurts you too much not starting dusty points wise if you want to try something different. But you have to select him if you want a durable set and forget fwd option.

Hey Coaches,
My R2 situation is causing me headaches. I am far from 100% confident in Gawn however have very little in goldy and Marshall as well.
Iβve seen cases for English and Naismith but not sure. Jacobs and NicNat seem to be the most popular alternatives at 13% ownership each. Gawn currently has less than 30% so who are u guys backing in?
T/U β Simple, bite the bullet and back Gawn
T/D β Go for Jacobs, NicNat, etc.

Maybe downgrade Crisp to Ash/rookie, and upgrade in forward line, monitor news of Hill injury and Houston for that matter.

Not sold on Patton, I just feel that having higher priced rookies in all lines is needed this year due to lack of the base ones. Obviously it all comes down to whoβs named for Round 1. Where can I improve?
Hey Rueben, pretty solid, the freo boys could be a concern(not Ryan), and that fwd line needs strengthening.
At sixes and sevens atm. Was trying to go without Grundy and Gawn, then had both, but was unconvinced by Grundys effort/ apparent fitness in SOO. Think Gawn will lift with captaincy. Viney in as I remember how good he finished the year 2 years ago, and value at his price. Like D Martin from the start. Some say he starts slow, but in SOO, even it is exhibition, looked sharper than every other player.

Hey folks, wanting to hear some thoughts/suggestions on this team
DEF: Laird, Sicily, Docherty, Ash, S. Hill, Williamson (Brander, Gould)
MID: Macrae, Neale, Fyfe, J. Kelly, P. Cripps, Rowell, T. Green, M. Pickett (Serong, D. Robertson, Close)
RUC: B. Grundy, Gawn (Conroy)
FWD: Whitfield, D. Martin, D. Smith, Georgiades, Rankine, Budarick (M. King, Mahony)
Are there any must have rookies Iβm missing as well?
Cheers
6/7 possible non-starters, comon problem with these Grawndy, Whitfield/Martin and 5 uber mids structure
hoping a few rookies pop up over this week of Marsh games and are named Round 1
DEF: Sicily, Houston, Crisp, Ash, Hill, Gould (Worrell, Bianco)
MID: Macrae, Neale, J.Kelly, Bont, Oliver, Narkle, Rowell, Pickett (Robertson, Mahony, Mead)
RUC: Grundy, Marshall (Cameron)
FWD: Whitfield, Macpherson, D.Smith, Butler, Georgiades, King (Close, Budarick)
Going for a more balanced team this yearβ¦ something new and adventurous for me as I usually do guns and rookies. Hoping Narkle and Macpherson can be PODβs. Thoughts and advice welcome
Was keen on Lycett but put off by his injury. Iβm now torn between Gawn and Naismith and what can be done with the remaining money. Appreciate any criticism and feedback.
TU: Option 1: Sicily and Naismith +$69,400
TD: Option 2: Gawn and Rankine (via DPP) +$9,400
Def: Ryan, XXX, Docherty, Roberton, Ash, Hill, Young (Brander, Gould)
Mid: Macrae, Cripps, Dunkley, Oliver, Houston, Rowell, Serong, Green, (Pickett, Rivers, Budarick)
Ruck: Grundy, XXX (Comben)
Fwd: Whitfield, Petracca, Lynch, Brayshaw, Smith, Rankine (Cameron, King)
Lots of DPPs in there to remain flexible.
This is my current situation.
DEF:

RUCK:
Grundy, Gawn (Xerri)
FWD:

Iβm pretty happy at this stage with everything however thinking of dropping Martin and picking up Houston. If I do it will be Martin to Brayshaw drop Hill move Brander FWD and pick up Houston.
Thoughts /Opinions
Defensive rooks look a problem. Rivers, Gould and Grieves not getting a run in Marsh 2.
Thoughts on Lukosios? Seems to have new role.
Hey Slatts, Lukosios barring injury will play 22 games, can he b a stepping stone like a Roberton (St Kilda) theres a chance. Heβll be permanently down back unlike last yr and great pre-season. Solid argument can be made that Roberton has a higher points potential whilst being slightly cheaper. If S Hill doesnβt pan out i could still end up with him.
T/U: Macpherson
T/D: Petracca
Petracca is such a tease, and i maybe wrong but his laziness in terms of defensive duties may cost him the mid time that everyone is craving. Also his kicking ainβt that good.
Smith, Docherty, Roberton, Noble, Starcevich, McLennan, (Rivers, Gould)
Neale, Fyfe, Jelly, Cripps, Mitchell, Danger, Rowell, Pickett, (McHenry, Robertson, Budarick)
Grundy, Nat, (Xerri)
Whitfield, Dusty, Smith, Schultz, Bonar, Brander, (King, Cameron)
Bit of a risk, but with the higher priced rookies scoring better should jump in price allowing me to upgrade.
Finished top 1,000 last year with a trade in hand after the finals, so aim to push higher this year.
Still moving the players around, but welcome thoughts and feedback.
Not bad Cam, Nic-Nat is a no for me, and risky backline, although i conceed Smith could be a sneaky good pick. Also like Shultz but at F4?? Good luck and great effort last yr.
Thanks for the feedback.
Agree Iβm potentially walking a fine line with a few of the players that are currently part of this setup, as there are a number of players who are known to be injury prone.
But on the flip side some of the higher priced rookies have had some experience in the previous year and should start with the bench scoring as well.
Nic Nat will probably be managed early on so I need to rethink that one, think about Schultz at F4 in place of S. Hill when you look at the fwd line, but still nothing is locked.
If Jacobs is a lock for GWS then he might be worth a thought, with an upgrade to Gawn given he holds up, and will free up some cash for an upgrade elsewhere.
Thereβs a lot of players pushing for similar positions in GWS which is my only concern there, as Hately would be in the best 22 everyday no matter who he played for, unfortunately heβs not at any other team, but should feature strongly throughout the year.
Thoughts, feedback and suggestions are always productive.
Yep Iβd rather Jacobs even Naismith could be worth a look. Might have to sacrifice youβre 6th premo in mids as well, but letβs see how the next week or so plays out.

Not 100% sold, but reasonably happy. $47k in the bank, but could swap Walters for Greenwood and have about $130k in the bank instead
Solid team just worry about def rookies obviously.
Any Suggestions/Feedback would be good

Open to upgrading Pendles, have him in there as a bit of a POD
I think ruck wise you go Max or a cheaper option to save cash, Jacobs played well today and Naismith potentially could come into calculations. Pendles canβt go with the uber-mids anymore upgrade for sure, smith up forward if at all. Good backline but Ash and Serong need to be monitored. Good luck
Trying Something New:
DEF: Laird, Houston, Docherty, Starcevich, McClennan, Gould (Rivers, Towey)

Tried to add a few PODs. Any advice?
On the edge with rookies, however very solid structure/team
Getting close to final team. I hope. Iβve opted to go deeper in my mids and a little lighter down back. Rookies are always up for change. 60k ITB.
Def: Daniel, Sicily, Roberton, Ash, Brander, Greaves (Bianco, Gould)

Fwd: Whitfield, Martin, Smith, Hill, Georgiades, King (Rankine, Xerri)
Iβm pretty settled on my premo lines. Rookies, weβll wait and see. I feel Iβve got enough swingmen in lines to make changes when needed.
Thoughts? Be brutal.
Hey Grasshopper like it, just have contingency structure plans in place regarding rookie availability. Brayshaw in the mids probs stands out as a weakness. But you obviously have 1 less rookie on field in mids, but does it cost you too much down back.

Thoughts?
Suggestions to swap anyone?
Thanks in advance
TU: Keep Hurn and Hill
TD: Swing Brander back + Walters and Noble instead of 2 above
Team looks good. But look at the bye rounds as u look like you will be missing a lot of players in one or 2 rounds. Players should always set a great team and be ready for the bye rounds
Really like your FWDs, going for something very similar myself. Canβt get behind RUC situation tho.
With the lack of rookies this will be a very different season for starter teams. So I am thinking that I will need to spread the load more. Jacobs is under priced and will do a serviceable job. OβConnor is there for the Def/Fwd loop. I know Cockatoo is injured but he will only miss a couple of rounds and good rookies will be hard to find.
Wondering whether to go with Cogs/Martin or Bont/Parish but will put that in a separate post.
Any comments on the team will be appreciated. Love this site and the assistance that all players give each other.

I just made a quick change Toby green in took l Whitefield out. Itβs a great move. Watch Toby green play better than Whitefield and Josh Kelly as well. Also bought gwan in for goldy so my team i choose pays of is very riskey. But I be laugbing to the bank if it pays of . I want to do something different this year hate picking the same playerβs. as other players and failing.

Iβm not sure if the backs are a little light on with Roberton at D3 but I donβt really trust Houston or Sicily and needed to strengthen the Forwards hence why Iβve gone with Heeney. Any thoughts would be awesome.
Thx

Sicily Crisp Docherty Noble Brander Gould (greaves rivers)
Macrame Neale Cripps Mitchell bont Rowell green picket (Philip Robertson budarick)
Gawn English (Conroy)
Whitfield dusty macpherson Brayshaw bonar Rankine ( king budarick)
Not sure Gould, Greaves and Rivers are going to get a game round 1.
English over Gawn is interesting but I guess that is your Point of Difference.
The popular opinion is itβs a year early for English, should start well but his durability over the course of the season is the question mark.
Looks good. As long as youβve worked out the loop hole options with your Captains and VC with Conroy for the first half of the season.
you definitely have enough rookie on field depth.
I reckon Macrame will stitch them up⦠boom-tish!
Hardest year ever to pick a starting team. With the lack of cheap rookies as it stands, I have taken a different approach and come up withβ¦..
Sicily, Houston, Doch, S Hill ( am I hearing injury concerns ?), Brander, B Williams (Gould/Rivers)
Neale, Cripps, Bont, Oliver, Parish, Rowell, Green, Pickett (vandenBerg/Starcevich/Robertson)
GG (Comden)
Whitfield, Dusty, T Lynch (Rich), Smith, Georgiades, Rankine (Cameron/M King)
Late decision not to include Roberton cause of R11. Probably one uber mid shortβ¦wnt with Parish cause I reckon this is his break out season, and it also allowed me to get a couple of dearer rookie types, including vandenBerg.
Be gentle.
Hey Wighty, get Noble down back for Hill, think you need 1 more uber-mid, and try to find a way to not field Georgiades, better on bench. Pretty good team mate letβs see what todayβs games tell us.
Looks pretty good mate. Agree with DB C on Noble for Hill and the MID thing. If you canβt afford it, Iβd get a Walsh, Hately type over Parish. They will definitely make money. Parish may not. When is Heppell due back? Be careful!
Sparrow may pop his head up FWD. Watson (FRE) more likely than Gould at this point.
Wighty, interesting team. I think you can replace Hill with Roberton (will be gone by rd11) or Noble. Canβt go with Parish myself, prefer someone like Viney or Brayshaw. VDB has to start on field in place Giorgieades. Buckley has confirmed that Cameron will not play rd1 so maybe Georgie goes to the bench. Good luck this yearβ¦M.

Ok,
Todayβs version, may require more changes after todays matches but weβre getting close to a final, low rookie version to suit 2020. $7k left.
B: Laird, Doch, Roberton, Cumming, Noble, Ash (Brander, Gould)
M: Macrae, Neale, Cripps, Oliver, Cogs, Hately, Rowell, Pickett (McInerney, Robertson, Budarick)
R: Gawn, Naismith (Xerri)
F: Whitfield, Martin, Greene/Heeney (will decide after Swans later today), McPherson, Vandenberg, Davis (Georgiades, Donut OβConnor).
Looks great. Just worry about Naismithβs durability. Where do you go if he goes down early?!. Would be more inclined to go Sauce if you want to go cheap. Does make your other lines look v strong tho and I like the picks!
What will I do if Sinclair goes down?
Cry. Huge, heaving sodden man tears as another Swans season goes south from holding onto Naismith while yet another former ruck who seemed unprepared to play for us (Cameron) probably ends up starring for a new club and picks up a premiership medal, just like Nank did.
Seriously though.
Am also keeping a weather eye on Darcy Fort. Impressed me last year and been looking good so far in the preseason.
Also Zac Smith is only $3k extra. Pittonet looks good, I dunno why Carlton are so determined to play De Konig in front of him. Luke Jackson. Noah Balta.
And obviously Darcy Cameron, who blind Freddie can see should be in there instead of Cox.
Anything else would require a correction trade if he goes down before week 3.
Wow if you decide Greeneβs your man at f3, that makes 6 GWS players. Not necessarily a bad thing however id be nervous every time teams are announced with the track record they have re: injuries/ rookie job security. Good luck with it, todayβs games will tell us more.
Thatβs probably the biggest concern going with Greene over Heeney.
Realistically though Cumming and Ash are probably gone well before the byes and Hately sometime around the byes (especially with Taranto likely to return around then).
Still, itβs 3 premo from the one team at least to have to worry about.
Shuffled a bit to bring Taylor and Mahoney in since North seem determined to play them.
Structurally insignificant but just milking the cows a bit harder
Think Greene will have a little more freedom and run like he was doing at the end of last year, kicking a few as he floats up forward and potentially pick up some of those scores that we saw at the end of the year, especially with Taranto out.
But in saying that Cogs could also see more time in the midfield although it has been suggested that heβll play 50/50 fwd/mid, but heβs taking over the captaincy and knowing Cogs will lead from the front, and we all know how well he was scoring before he went down.
The big question is with a Giants team close to their best (Cameron, Cogs, Greene, Jelly, Whitfield, Williams) throw Hopper and Shaw in the mix with Ward coming back into the picture fairly early in the season given everything goes to plan, thereβs only one footy that Iβm aware.
Numerous rookies on their list would be in the first 22 in every other team, but they arenβt every other team.
Thoughts and feedback would make this an interesting discussion, Cheers
Interesting HH, food for thought. Just placed Davis on my watchlist, already have Crocker. Not game to go without Grundy and Gawn but I think you have spent the extra dollars well. Good luckβ¦.M

Looks good. Biggest worry to me is Sloane who has burnt a lot of us in the past.
Ceglar concerns me too, because he only seems to score ok when heβs up against a rookie or much smaller ruck.
Iβd honestly prefer a downgrade of Ceglar to Patton and then use the cash to upgrade Sloane.
But other than that looks very solid indeed.
Thanks Harbour Heroes!!!

Unforgiving year SC is shaping up to be. Going with the 4prem midfield to fund the midpricers around the ground. Is having both McRae and Dunkley in a 4 man midfield suicidal with the bye rounds. Moreso, can Anderson live up to that 200k pricetag. Originally had Stephens instead but didnβt do much over the pre season games. Much to think on
Steven for Lynch based off that performance today

Thoughts ?
Really solid mate, Walsh could be a nice pod. Noble down back is a possible upgrade from Williams or Starcevich if money allows.
Iβm with DB β walsh could go another 10-15 pts and cripps gets the tag not him
Hey guys, this is not a team rating post, apologies, however there are probably many of us in this position, however im coming to the conclusion that this years forward line will make or break majority of sides.

Reall finding it difficult this season⦠how many of those guys is too many?
Keeping in mind most teams will have Whitfield & Martin (F1&F2)
Appreciated.
There might be a poll on the site about this at some stage this weekβ¦.
Hey Guys,
Would love your response on my team so far!
Def: Lloyd, Houston, Docherty, Roberton, Noble, Starcevich (Worrell, Gould)
Mid: Macrae, Neale, J.Kelly, Cripps, Dangerfield, Steven, Rowell, Pickett (Robertson, Bianco, Rivers)
Ruck: Grundy, Marshall (Comben)
Fwd: Whitfield, Martin, Hill, Cameron, C.Taylor, Budarick (King, OβConnor)
Have $17,700 left
Thanks guys!
Marshall was the man last year, I feel he may lose some points sharing the load with Ryder! You could potentially lower him to a Jacobβs if ya not keen on grawndy and potentially up one of those forward rookies to a dev smith.
Also hill has done his calf again!
I have both J.Kelly and Titch in my midfield of that just too risky?
TU: Who hurt you?
TD: Gotta risk it for biscuit
TU A.Phillips

Wow how the teams keep changing my set up looks very different to what it started (2 def premos, 5 mid, 2 ruck, 3 fwd).
However with all of this carnage it may well be the most fun season of all we are going to need luck as most have many mid pricers well I do now at least so letβs see.
DEF: Laird, Houston, Docherty, Roberton, Noble, Starcevich (Brander, Gould)
MID: McRae, Neale, Dunkley, Oliver, McGrath, Rowell, Pickett, Green (Robertson, Sharp, Brown)
RUCK: Grundy & Gawn (Conroy)
FWD: Whitfield, Martin, Smith, Long, Crocker, Taylor (King, Budarick)
Any thoughts, could this work?
McGrath is my boy, but I wouldnβt consider him a mid premo, definitely has potential to make some bank though.
Yeah Iβm considering him a stepping stone make me 100k ish & upgrade around the byes.
He still may go out if I decide there is too much risk in this setup.

Tu ; BOTH!!
Am definitely considering both! I currently have Issac Cumming at D4, whoβs a better option, him or Noble?
Zerk has some good job security with Ambrose and hookers injuries atleast till round 5.
Noble is versing quaynor for that spot in the team, hope he gets it!
Versing is not a word

Still got 62K leftover at the moment
Cheers
Solid team Sheepy, but I have big query on Naismith. Gawn has to be first option
Cheers
I want gawn but donβt know how to get him in at the moment without getting rid of whitfield and going another cheapie forward
Perhaps downgrade one of your Def premos to upgrade Naismith rather than cutting Whitfield?
Thoughts on Laird v B Smith in backline.
I currently have gone with Smith as he looks like spending more time in middle (Adelaide lack leg speed so Smith helps this) but Laird is a proven ball winner. May be a good POD ?
Laird is in 20% of teams, not a POD. Heβs more consistent than Smith, but with a lower ceiling. Depends how much you like taking a punt
Hi Chillo,
I meant Smith as POD
But point taken.
Quite happy with this new version of my team. Honest thoughts?
DEF: Lloyd, Weller, Doc, Cumming, BZT, B Williams (Rivers, Gould)

A few iterations later this is where Iβm at, not sure how itβll look at lockout but my balls are big at the moment.
Basically I donβt know of any real rookies apart from the obvious 4 or 5 so Iβll have to wait and see. Mid priced (under priced) fwd line might be where its at this year.

Would basically like to not get towelled up by the family this year if at all possible
cheers
Need to put Rowell on field. A number of your rookies look doubtful for R1 so you may need a major refit when teams drop.
I would have Dusty in your fwds. Get rid of Greaves (doubtful R1) and move Brander back.
Good luck Red
thanks Stewey β just one game would be nice lol
TU: JACK STEVEN
TD: ANDREW BRAYSHAW
Iβve tossed and turned with this team and have just completely done a revamp after being disappointed by the rookie options. Have run myself dry on some cheap rookies to make way for some mid pricers and surefire playtime. Not a whole lot of money to play with in the bank either. Please let me know what you think. π
Backs- Laird, Houston, Docherty, Zerk-Thatcher, Williamson, Gould (Bianco, River)
Mids- Macrae, Kelly, Cripps, Oliver, Coniglio, Rowell, Green, Pickett (Mead, Roberton, H. Brayshaw)
Rucks- Grundy, Gawn (Cameron)
Fwds- Whitfield, Martin, Petracca, Smith, Brander, King (Budarick, Rankine)
Im tossing up between Petracca and Steven to make room for a better mid than Coniglio. My thought process for picking cogs was so I can sure up the rest of my team with scorers and sacrifice that extra 5-10 points from a neale or a bont and instead put it into a Petracca instead of J.Steven.
Let me know what you guys think!
Have you hacked my puter ??????????
Hahahahha great minds think alike mate! Good to know someone else thinking the same way this season π
D: Sicily, Doc, Roberton, Noble, BZT, Brander (Watson, Gould)

R: Grundy, Gawn (Comben)
F: Whitfield, MacPherson, Smith, Crocker, Rankine, Budarick (CTaylor, King)
$19.1k bank.
I know my def and fwd lines are a bit shallow but really happy with my mids and hoping they more than make up for any points foregone elsewhere.
Have dabbled with bringing Sauce in for Gawn to boost other lines but keep coming back to the set and forget option of GG. The $350k saving doesnβt allow me to go up to Dusty in the fwd line without getting rid of either Smith or MacPherson (both of whom Iβm keen on after Marsh). It would allow me to get another keeper in the back line but then I still need to find a way to get Max in later in the year. Not worth the headache imo.
What do you think coaches?
My concern going 6 deep in the mids is that you are playing with one less rookie in the mids and one more in another line. Given the JS and scoring of def and fwd rookies are uncertain your 6th mid may be better as an extra fwd or def premium.
Thoughts on rookies that are going to play or cheap players. (Lots of names would be appreciated)
Hi aka,
You could look at putting Brander in you backline as I am doubtful that Gould will play R1. From what I saw on GWS last game Cogs is at a good price and is worth keeping. I think your midfield looks good. Backline could be strengthened, ensure all the back 6 are playing R1

I understand Brodie Smith is a massive risk, but playing as a midfielder last year he averaged 100 from five matches, and should have a more permanent role as a wingman.
Im of the same opinion . B Smith could be a excellent POD.
Hey community!
Would love some thoughts/opinions on my team

Neale, Cripps, Fyfe, Whitfield, Brayshaw (Freo), Rowell, Ash, Serong, Pickett, Cockatoo, Maginess
Grundy, Gawn, Cameron
Martin, MacPherson, Smith, Bonar, Flanders, Rankine, Skinner, Crocker
Laird and Lloyd i cannot see being as dominant as past years, last year the decline in scoring began.
Brayshaw a POD but given the price range i had to play with he seemed to be a big improver
Was going to pick Marshall but the Ryder influence i forgot about
Forward quite happy with, i think Steven will fall in a trap similar to Dahl and pump out 80s most year

I feel as though if Brodie Smtih plays through the middle more, itβll free up more points for Laird. However, will this be the case? Or will Laird continue to average those 90-100 scores. Ideally want him back to his old best if im going to start him. Thoughts coaches?

Scratching my head on this one lads,
I feel like Houston is a top 6 back and brayshaw will make some coin with a nice mid/fwd flip.
Then I also feel like macrae is getting what youβre paying for! But ash has to go to the giant war of battling Cummings and other j jets for his position.

Is having three Bulldog midfielders too heavy???
As it stands, my mids are:
Macrae, Neale, Dunkley, Bontempelli, Rowell, Greene, Pickett (Robertson / Mahony / Hibberd)
My alternative is that I trade out Bont and upgrade to Cripps⦠but doing that would come at the expensive of sacrificing a playing rookie ($117 k) to a non playing rookie ($102k)

bont for brownlow imo

Hey, Glen.
Look a little light down back. Just swap Prestia for Tom Green and grab another premo down back. Otherwise, everything else looks good.
Appreciate it thanks. Loving this website. Seems like a good bunch of ppl
Who here has a team that looks totally different from a couple of weeks ago?
Is Steven too fat to play good footy?
Will Grawndy be worth the money?
What is the bet the SC site crashes and will leave people unable to change their team?
All these questions are on my mind. Wish it was next week already
