solid team but if i had to pick from the options you mentioned..I would upgrade Roberton.

Yea I’m looking at that thanks mate

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Went with six mid premos, and left then defence light on.

It’s a bold strategy cotton....

 

[Heaps of fun]

why is Fort gaining traction suddenly?
fwd only and JS I would have thought was iffy at best.

With the extra trades I consider it a low risk/high reward choice. Also at 264k is as close to what a rookie is this pre-season to a mid pricer. He might be gone in two games but as a first ruck he will score at least 75.

 

[Deliverance]

Not going to even look at my team today.

Let god decide

Is that you Scomo?

What's the rationale behind English? Seem him in a few teams and seems a risky choice given you have NicNat around the same price and Sauce Jacobs $100k cheaper.

Just a feeling.

And wanted to be different to every man and his dog with Gawn and Grundy.

Also, looking at Brisbane's interchange, virtually no chance both Robertson and Starcevich play. I'd be curious to hear from a Lions fan, but I'd predict Starcevich is more likely given they were talking him up throughout the pre-season.

Not sold on McInerney as a rookie selection. I think I, and most Swans fans, were a bit surprised to see him in the team. Definitely has talent, but wouldn't surprise me if he was in and out of the team a fair bit this season.

Ah Chee is an out.

 

[SSwans2011]

Ah Chee is an out.

Regardless, I think McCarthy, Berry and Witherden are all virtually certainties (god I wish Sydney's bench looked like that). Leaves only 1 spot, which I daresay would go to Starcevich, Robertson or Lester. Could be wrong though.

 

[SSwans2011]

What's the go with Noble? Is he a must have?

 

[MowShow]

What's the go with Noble? Is he a must have?

Hasn't left my team since seeing his role in preseason.

 

[ROOINYOU]

What's the go with Noble? Is he a must have?

not a must have.
seems most have either him or Cumming.
Noble just cheaper...Cumming likely to be a better scorer but JS/role when Williams comes back are unknown.

 

[SSwans2011]

Roberton > Noble / Dawson > Noble & Clugg > Bont are the only changes I'm thinking of at the moment.

first time playing supercoach so advice would be appreciated, currently have:

Def: houston, crisp, docherty, roberton, noble, zerk (brander, starcevich)
Mid: macrae, dunkley, neale, titch, rowell, anderson, pickett, green (brown, mcinerny, robertson)
Ruck: Grundy, Naismith (williams)
Forward: Whitfield, dusty, petracca, brayshaw, devon smith, budarick (king, cavarra)

I currently have 250k left over.

I could go neale to cogs and then either starcevich to brodie smith, zerk to laird or robertson/mcinerny/cavarra to darcy macpherson

Doubt Naismith scores enough to be justifiable, even at his current price. I'd downgrade Petracca to Curtis Taylor and get Gawn. Or alternatively just get Sam Jacobs or NicNat instead of Naismith given you have 250k left.

I would put the money into upgrading Anderson.
most teams rolling with 5 premo mids..some have 6!

 

[Double the Fist]

I don't see Ben Davis in a lot of teams. is his JS really shakey?

 

[balmainforever]

why is Fort gaining traction suddenly?
fwd only and JS I would have thought was iffy at best.

Easy trade to Jack Steven next week if he screws up.

 

[rocker_oz33]

What's the go with Noble? Is he a must have?

Not a much have.

But not many warm bodies under 260k .

 

[Heaps of fun]

For comparison he is closer to Rowell's price (57k dearer) than Dev Smith's (71k cheaper).

yea idk i think im willing to risk it with naismith. If he's rucking solo surely he should be good for 70+

 

[ROOINYOU]

you starting with 100k in the bank?
want to hope you don't need any rook corrections.
at his price and history I want to see a few b2b good scores before jumping on..cop a price rise if I must.
is he 2020's Marshalls..probs not.

This year you can't see B2B scores without a price raise.

Prices change after game 2.

so i've gone crisp to lloyd, anderson to cogs and petracca to brander with still 113k left. Should i do something like cogs to an uber premo?

I'd cop a rise if I have too.
would want to see 2 games over 85 minimum before I would consider him.
