treading a risky one here.
Have loaded the backline with 5 potential 90+ scorers, plus Murray who could do pretty well.
It means i have 4 premium mids, a smokey in Graham, plus 3 rookies starting.
The forward line is the biggest gamble. Have not spent big, but i have no rookies starting.
Cash is there to upgrade Higgins to Stephenson if he's not named Rd.1

Its different and i like it. Some may criticise your lack of guns in the midfield or your mid priced forwards but i dont mind either. Are there a fair few players that i wouldnt pick? Absolutely, but i think i know the thought process behind them. Good luck!

im ridiculously nervous about this concept
its sink or swim stuff. It will either be a masterstroke or an unfixable disaster.

im hoping ive backed some decent dark horses in that 350-450 range.

Im likely to panic and revert to a standard premium/rookie setup at the last minute

Marlowe · Mar 15, 2018

I am sticking with Danger because **** it, and if I am nervous, I will trade him out for literally anybody then back in.

So many teams with Devon Smith! I feel like he's a Sam Gray shaped trap, convince me otherwise.

will not be predominantly forward.
Was our best mid for the JLT and brings pressure we severely lack.
His tackling and disposal numbers, added to his goal scoring, should see him score pretty well.
averaged 90 last year prior to his injuries playing less midfield time.

What are people's strateges for the Rd1 VC loophole?
Are you picking a $102K player (most likely R3) for the yearly set and forget loophole?
Or picking a rookie that won't debut in Rd1 but should get some games early?
Or just picking 30 players who are named Rd1 and forgoing the VC loophole for this round, thinking that you will have at least 1 out for Rd2?
Or waiting till after the early games to finalise the squad and taking it from there?
Or any other strategies?

I see most people here have gone the no Danger option at this stage and I will admit it makes the rest of the team look stronger but it more than likely will cost you 2 trades to get him in later so am thinking it might be an idea to start with him even if he misses and use him as the VC loophole.

Thoughts?

I’ll probably take a 123K floating def/fwd donut. I’ve never nailed every single rookie pick In my initial team and always expect to make a couple of rookie corrections after round 2, so I might as well try and get a few extra points in the first 2 rounds that way. So it will allow me a VC loophole as well as a forward or defensive rookie loophole.

Similar to mine except you bat to Cogs at M7 whereas I have JOM M7 and Sicily D4 instead of a Rookie. Also sticking with Danger. Like how you've gone Martin/Gawn.

Marchy 2nd season blues or break-out?

Has there been a spreadsheet of all the JLT scores been compiled yet?

O'Meara in and out of my team.

Only Cripps had a more consistent high-scoring JLT than Marchbank, who averaged 100. If he's going to be getting some of Doc's possessions, I think he can have a really good year, and if not, it's not much of a jump to Sicily.

Good thinking, and "could" be a real possibility ......i debated O'Meara, but he looked better with each game, was moving freely & with no taping of the knee, like he did last year

At his price, i'm hoping for a 90 ave ......the next options were Cogs or Libba, who could both score ave 105 ? .......but that's another $130K plus to upgrade O'Meara ? .....i spent that $130K elsewhere

Look at this guy, look at that smile, that's the kinda smile you see when your R3 loophole has just banked the extra 150 points from Dusty's round 1 score against the Blues.

Yeah that's why I just started with Sicily as I trust him more. Interested to see how he goes!

Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods · Mar 15, 2018

This pretty much my final list. Decided to dump Danger, J. Garlett and Rockliff due to injury concerns. Might make a couple more tweaks once teams are named.

cuzz is back · Mar 15, 2018

Hi Gents,

Back at it for another year,hopefully it isn't a nightmare like last year.

After twisting and turning for the last 2 weeks, I've finally put something together, no doubt it'll change another 100 times prior to season start.

good luck to all.
