Gonna leave this team through the AAMI series pending injuries and rookies. Pretty happy with the balance tbh

R2 very problematic.

 

[ImissFrosty]

You need a plan for the defensive rookies. Kemp and Dean injured and Boyd unlikely. I just can’t see 3 onfield defensive rookies being viable.

Yep just saw this, i have tinkered a little bit and somehow ended up upgrading the team lol. Went from Dale, Kemp and Grundy to Crisp, Kiddy and Darcy lol. Rookies are ****ed atm (Peris is Hayes from the Saints) but easily fixed by droppin Crisp to cheaper D2 eg. Whitfield/Dale

Gresham to rookie. Serong to Berry. Preuss to Grundy/Darcy. If that's not enough, drop Dusty to a 400k type

 

[brendan84]

A lot of you jumping on the Cripple’s back will make him break down. Would hate to see that

So thanks to Durdins injury i've had to swap Tom Mitchell for Darcy Parish

in order to afford Josh Rachele and a D2 worth over $500k.

Durdin is fine

Durdin is fine

Hopefully so!

To be fair Boyd may have better job security than I thought.
Yours is looking a very good team.

I’d be interested to know where people are thinking of slipping Durdin in. A lot of teams had an expensive Rachele at F6. Are people thinking Durdin F6 instead of Rachele or as well as and shifting Rachele to F5 for a Curnow type? Or just viewing Durdin as a bench fwd with one of the $102k rookies which is what I’m trying to do. We could have Dixon and both Hayes as options along with Comben across r/f.

I’ve gone Durdin on the bench with Rachele @ F6

Durdin didn't touch the ball in the 2nd quarter, absolutely no way I'd want him starting on my field. Looped with Rachele if I go with a FWD donut or he can just sit on the bench.

Rookies are getting slim, no choice but to make adjustments

I’ll be barracking hard for you Frosty as we have nearly identical teams

 

[King_Steele]

I think with all these rookies Neale @ M5 team is achievable

What rookies lol, still looks very bare to me. Taking $180k Ward or $160k Stephens or $166k Erasmus on your mid bench isn't appealing. $145k Durdin at F7 also really hurts. We need playing cheap rookies for our benches, I'm still not convinced we'll get them.

Concern areas:
cheap mid rooks for bench
cheap def rooks
on field fwd rooks

Rachele/Durdin

Bench is the concern. Expensive rooks on the bench really stings, I don't think I've ever done that before (maybe one expensive rookie on the bench, once or twice in like 10 years of SC)

Agreed.
Hopefully the likes of play:
Boyd/SDK/Kelly
Mead/MacDonald/ODriscoll
Dixon/Hayes/Comben

Usually I'd agree but there aren't many cheap rookies this year. Would rather an expensive rookie with rock solid job security then a cheaper one who gets dropped after a few games.

What we do have this year is some great mid pricers for those willing to take the punt (better then most years). I think this is the way to go. Coaches trying to fit in 4 super premo mids are going to struggle.

Can always take a donut m/f if there is a playing R3. Hollands if you want one that will* get games at some point.






* He might not though.

I've scrapped Lloyd and gone with Daicos, Sinn and Macartin as my only onfield rookies for now.

donuts are gonna happen regardless. no point in planning for an extra one
