Stringers injured but look out for him after his first 4 games he'll do well. Currie and Neade i reckon will be good enough to play on the ground so id rack luey off and upgrade stringer.

Leuey will shoot up in value though so worth holding on to i think. Currie is a cash cow for now and so is neade, but i can play neade in place of stringer come round 1 if he is out. My understanding was that Stringer had only twinged an ankle and could possibly line up round one. Can be tweaked once final line ups come out, possibly to daniher, i dont know.

Also thinking of swapping out cotchin for deledio for round 1 due to the dreaded carazzo tag, big decision this one.

Much different team than I'm used to seeing not sure where to start in giving you my thoughts.

The back line is pretty solid the 3/0/5 is a little bit of a risky structure but it is manageable one, i think you've spent to much money in the midfield as you've got it pretty stacked and the rest of your team is looking pretty light on. I would de-grade Ebert to a rookie and move Rockliff to the forward line.

The ruck like is way to light on, when you move Rockliff to the forwardline you could then move Cox into the rucks.

Hope that helps. :)
 
As dannnnnnnnnnnn said malthouse not playing a heavy tag usually and carrazzo especially has been released from that role more

Can see Carrazzo going to Cotchin round 1 as he did last year. I recall seeing him tagging Rich on the weekend although I'm not sure how much of the game he spent on him. Carrazzo is just too good of a tagger to not be used.

Malthouse did have Wellingham tag for Collingwood but he also had Pendlebury, Beams, Swan, Ball, Sidebottom etc to run through the middle. A full time tagger in there really wasn't needed with that sort of midfield.

Yeah well Rich was chopping us up and he went to him in around the 3rd quarter.
But i think that will be a rarity
We played shockingly and to be frank i don't think that's going to happen, a midfield won't run through us like that in the real things.

Look for Curnow and Bell to shut down Cotchin and only if he starts to get on fire will Carrots go to him

Interesting. Has Malthouse come out and stated this or is this just a gut feel amongst Carlton supporters?

And I have a feeling Carrazzo will be jumping across to Cotchin if Bell/Curnow are on him ;) no offence to them but Cotchin is too good not to have a heavy tag.

Ok, getting to the stage where I'm finding it hard to sleep. 3rd season of DT.
Def: Goddard, Gibbs, Heppell, Vlastuin, Pittard, Goodes, (Stevenson, Terlich)
Mids: Swan, Ablett, Boyd, Pendlebury, McVeigh, Wines, Crouch, O’meara (K Mitchell, Viney)
Rucks: Cox, Longer (Currie, Witts)
Fwds: Franklin, Bartel, Zorko, Rockliff, Karnezis, Macaffer (Rowe, Neade)

McV in for the first 2 at least due to paying GC and GWS. May go to Fife after if he is playing well. Longer in for the Burg till he is up and running.

Give it to me.

Sound logic, I really can't fault your reasoning and or selections. This is as good a Rd1 team as I have seen here. 9/10

Very good team mate, as Gingy said nothing can really be faulted great job! :thumbsu:

Start of the season you guys play Rich, Coll, Geel and Ade - probably the best 4 mids in the comp talent wise, so I think Carrazzo will have a bit of tagging early.

West Coast in there as well, but I don't think you'll tag in that game.

Anyway, just my food for thought.
 
Come here and find the defence i've settled on is similar to most people

Def: Goddard, Gibbs, Heppel, Vlastuin, Pittard, Goodes (Stevenson, Terlich)

Mid: Swan, Ablett, Boyd, Montagna, Greene, Stevens, Wines, O'meara (Mitchell, Crouch)

Ruc: Cox, Luey (Blicavs, Currie)

Fwd: Bartel, Zorko, Robinson, Martin, Karnezis, Macaffer (Rowe, Kennedy)

Leftover: $55,200

I'm pretty confident with Montagna in M4 as he plays against gws, suns and Richmond in the first 3 rounds
 
I LOLed because I thought you photoshopped Bliclavs to your ruck bench..then I checked and it's for realz we have our very first DT Mid/Ruck DPP....ZOMG!!111:eek:

Umm nice team but too much WCE IMHO


Yeh would like to swap kennedy for a similarly priced FWD whose good value for money but can't think of anyone atm any ideas?

Bliclavs tough call....dunno if it'll pay off
