Position 2020 Rookies

[GT619]

We'll get enough def and fwd rooks, but the mid bench is really starting to worry me

 

[Handball345]

They gave a half each to all the 1st year players due to load management, nothing to do with form. Staff needed to see some other players more than ones who have already shown promise over the marsh series

Doubt he plays rnd 1. Only came on after half time once they benched rowell and anderson

 

[stevebbb]

Let's say we don't get a midfield bench full of cheapies (I honestly think we'll struggle to get 1, let alone 3), I'm going to put Rowell and Pickett on the bench and roll 8 deep in the mids

 

[Asho81]

Feels kinda gross having Brander and Starcevich sitting on the bench eating up 280k.
Oh well.

Must have a deep defence.....

Has anyone got a comprehensive list of Rookies who are essentially guaranteed games, who we’d be comfortable playing regularly onfield this season?

I'll give you a comprehensive list of two. Pickett & Rowell. As for the rest ..........

2020 RoTY?

 

[FFB1]

seriously considering multiple $102k rookies with DPP whose sole purpose will be to change positions in order for me get a team on the field.

not the worst idea and then bring in the rookies as theyre on the bubble

 

[Suma Magic]

This rookie situation is now a full blown national crisis.

I’m going to go all in on durable premos and zany midpricers.

This rookie situation is now a full blown national crisis.

I’m going to go all in on durable premos and zany midpricers.

I'm not as concerned with the rookies I think there are still plenty of options and although some might not be named round 1 will not be put off by having them in my starting team.

just wanted to draw everyones attention back to this great work by Andrew Birch . really helping me with my rookie selections.

also that spreadsheet someone did a while back was great help too.

with the amount of rookies on offer you have to reconsider if you can afford 600k+ players all around the field.

 

[Loose at HB]

Does anyone have any updates on this Freo campaigner Young and why he isn't playing? The most recent iteration of my team has both Ash and Green because current rookie stocks are as dry as my recent dating history and I don't really want to be relying on Leon campaignerron for job security....

He suffered an injury in training, has been held back in training accordingly. Like about 10 rookies he's a downgrade option, alas.

180k downgrade option. Looks like the perfect player to trade in when all our midpricers inevitably fail
Thanks for the info

Mid Marsh 2 Rookie guess summary sheet.

Anyone below 3/10 chance for R1 wasn't included. I put Hill at 5/10 due to that headline I saw, no idea what if he is actually injured.

No doubt there is an error or two and the last column won't be that accurate. Interested in hearing all corrections/additions/opinions.

 

[Werewolf]

Cheers Suma Magic. I can't see Weightman or Gardner playing in round 1, Sweet is also very unlikely.

 

[buttox]

curtis taylor also on the pine
123k forward
best on for north vs dees last week.

 

[Suma Magic]

There’s no CCJ at $195k in that sheet.

Could be a big trap with Pearce/Wison coming back rounds 3-4

Was impressive last year for Peel though

Interesting list.
I'm sure I saw that Essendon's Hibberd would be fit to play round 1 and IMO the most likely Melbourne rookie to get a game is Pickett.

 

[Jiska]

Let's say we don't get a midfield bench full of cheapies (I honestly think we'll struggle to get 1, let alone 3), I'm going to put Rowell and Pickett on the bench and roll 8 deep in the mids

Which 8 rookies will you be running with in DEF and FWD?

 

[pincrusher]

Has anyone got a comprehensive list of Rookies who are essentially guaranteed games, who we’d be comfortable playing regularly onfield this season?
