Anybody bold enough to try Jamie Elliott (380k) ?

Bad run with injury, but a known 75-80 scorer when he plays.

Would rather spend the extra 100K and go with someone like Jack Newnes at 481K. Shifted into a full time mid role by all accounts, and has scored decently in the past. Safe 75 at worst, 95-100 at best

F4 is proving to be a hard one for me
Can't go premium because I have to spend up on R2 now. Worpel has occupied that spot for a while but I'm not sold on how he fits into a full 22
 
Strongly considering starting Gawn and Goldy in my ducks and dropping Grundy. Although Grundy hasn’t been terrible by any stretch in JLT, I just don’t think he has been at the standard he was at last year. Maybe a slower start due to missing nearly a month earlier this pre season with a mysterious leg injury? I don’t know. Either way didn’t think he looked great today and almost looked a little slow at times compared with his usual self. Paying huge money for him and if you can spend the savings from him to goldy somewhere else in the team and make up points a different way then you could be laughing if he drops and goldy rises a little
Grundy did nothing in the pre-season last year as well... just a little run around and get a few hits to advantage... then bang.
 
another one bites the dust...

How so? Only a consideration at this stage, but he looks like he has the same role as Billings, just on the opposite flank. He's also 140K cheaper, so that helps too. Just one that I'm keeping in mind at this stage

Usually have an 'interrupted presason, no selection' type policy for my team. Grundy falls into that. Seems criminal leaving him though. On the fence currently but the fact he seemed off the pace has me wondering what I can do with the money saved
 
From all reports, Allen should take Kennedy's spot and Petrucelle should take LeCras' old spot, or is that wrong?

Last I heard Kennedy was going to play an intraclub match this week so could still line up round 1 (though I doubt it since it's in Brisbane)

All I meant is that I think Allen is ahead of Petch in the pecking order
 
Btw, another stat that's not on AFL.com.au is the marks stat for each Pies game. They really have changed their game style, which means there should be some monster Collingwood fantasy rounds this year for a fair few players. 115-60 marks in the Freo game, and 120-70 marks in the Carlton game. Controlled possession is definitely a win for fantasy. Adelaide the other side with this game style, from what I've seen (and West Coast of course)

It's tough because there are literally no appealing forward rookies as well. Currently have Setterfield F4 which really isn't ideal but then again is it worth paying up for someone like Worpel at F4 when you don't really have any idea where their average will fall?

He's flying under the radar I reckon.

Ahhh, I thought you were against it, haha. More so, that another one of yours has bit the dust. Gotcha. Yeah, he's someone I heard about it pre-season and was like hmmmm...Has not disappointed during JLT

You're not wrong. Outside of here, I doubt anyone else has considered him. Papley is another one, but he's a bit more risky I reckon

Newnes is definitely a juicy pick. He scored between 80-88 a year for 4 years until last year. If he does have a mid role then he could be 20 points under price.
 
I wouldn't be too worried about the big footy population, given that maybe 50 of us might see it at most haha. As long as the Traders don't get hold of it, he'll be our little secret
Yea its unlikely the 150k people that play check this thread. Anyway your start and end teams will be completely different so it doesnt matter if people copy your team
 
Argh, can't make up my mind about this dilemma: Taranto or Rockliff, Taranto or Rockliff, Taranto or Rockliff. Just keep going back and forth. Taranto was locked until Rocky's 180. Taranto is good, but the pig has such a high ceiling and he looked back to his absolute best in that game. Full pre-season and dropped some kgs, it's really hard to ignore

What are people's thoughts?

queue the mexican girl pic.

Fingers crossed there's only 1 more podcast before the season kicks off.

Rocky for me as he's 60k cheaper and for that reason only. Been thinking about this one a fair bit myself and as much as I want Taranto I can't find room for him (at the moment).
 
I've literally done this to fit both of them in, to see what it would look like (Gawn went to Goldy and I lost a defender, so Duursma came off the bench. Cousins is too valuable as a cash cow to leave out, which is why he's on the bench):
