I've got 4 teams I'm happy with, all dependant on which cheap rookies are selected in rd1 (and whether I want to pick Hinge or not).
There's also a couple of premo selections I'm tossing up on.
I want to hold as much cash in the bank as possible, as I fully intend on dropping a trade boost for 3 "cash cow correction trades" in rd3.

It's essentially:

1) Lloyd + Crisp + McEntee + Rachele + Dixon + $144k bank

2) Crisp + Skinner + Touk + Rachele + Dixon + $53k bank

3) Dale + Skinner + McEntee + De Goey + Heeney + $29k bank

4) Hinge + Skinner + Touk + Heeney + Xerri + $68k bank

Which one do you like at this stage

Hey all, am usually more into it but circumstances have lead to it being more difficult this year.

Just an initial team after doing some basic research. Just after some quick thoughts? Don't feel comfortable at all with Will Kelly

Nothing wrong with it
Very similar to a lot of teams posted on BF

Which Rookies get named will determine how we all set up in the end

 

[Thomas Hird 2020]

Looking at these teams I’m predicting a huge number of meltdowns when the only def rookies named are McCartin and De Koning…

It’s going to be fun to watch.

Cheers, appreciate it.

So, looking at D alone. Probably Boyd, Kelly and NOD need replacing. Cripps to Berry gets you about 180k. Who do you bring in?
I'm not sure an M1-M3 set up like that is viable this year.

 

[stevebbb]

No clue, not a fan of either. Just waiting to see where the cheap rookies appears. I don't think I'll be happy with any starting team this year, just spending too much on the expensive cash cows.

 

[freddy mercury]

Then I'd have to cull either Steele or Macrae.

 

[blackshadow]

Current iteration. I think it's getting pretty close to how I'll roll in Round 1 - will finalise rookies when team announced.

Brody is the one I'm having the most angst over.

There's a bit of cash in the kitty to give me some flexibility to make any corrections or grab a bolter or two.

Thoughts kentlemen?

 

[beev]

I’ve got $113k left for any tinkering. Bit worried about Xerri at F4. Still to decide between Berry and Rowell.

 

[Exambolor]

Well here’s my second draft of my team, a lot better than the one I first posted a few weeks back. I feel it’s pretty solid, although I still think maybe a couple more changes are needed dependent of which rookies play among other things.

Here are my thoughts on what could be changed, would love to get your opinions on it and my team overall

Would one more premium mid be worth it? I know Bont, Macrae and Neale are stars and Rowell will be great if he fires back to his early season form, but I can’t help but feel I need a Touk or an Oliver there as well. I could potentially shuffle Brodie forward and move Dixon to the bench to make that spot.

Speaking of Dixon, he and Naish might be pretty handy picks considering the Eagles injury crisis and they’ll hopefully get a fair bit of game time.

My backline is the one I’ve been focusing on. My Crisp, Stewart and Lloyd combo I feel will be worth the investment becuase they all guarantee pretty decent points, especially with their kick ins from Lloyd and Stewart. My second defensive line I’m still unsure about.

Bench I feel is good, because I’ve deliberately put in rookies that are most likely to get some decent game time throughout the season.

Better take Joyce out as he’s injured.

 

[weltschmerz]

My first SuperCoach attempt in years, no effing idea, spuds the lot of them. If the Pies don't bounce I'm gawn.

View attachment 1342323

Lukosius will be playing forward so his scoring potential will drop. The key forwards you've got probably won't be great scorers.

 

[weltschmerz]

I think the only thing I'm still torn about is whether to take Weller in as a potentially good POD, or to drop him to a Ralphsmith/McGovern and upgrade Hewett or Dixon. Wouldn't mind Preuss generating some cash on the bench, like I'm hoping Stephens will do.

 

[Suma Magic]

Not sure if I'm improving things with fiddling around. This is the latest, $19k left.

Love it - very similar to my setup.

Weak in the mid, but that’s the path we’ve chosen

Ben Mckay is norths first kpd.
He wont be zoning off May style to take intercept marks.
Terrible pick IMO.

Caldwell is surely better value than Brodie. But yeah not ideal he is a mid.

Be handy this year to be able to do 2 down 1 up during upgrade season, bring the in the SP mids.

No one should be fully happy with their starting team, we all have to compromise somewhere

Our teams are not the same, just similar.

If you keep this setup, I’ll be interested to see how we progress with our trading

Ben Mackay is norths first kpd.

Terrible pick IMO.

Fair enough. I was considering removing him anyway becuase i felt I could put in another rookie instead haha.

Might use that spare money as well for another quality player instead

[Saints_Man]

Feel like I'm getting pretty close to my final team. 69.1k left in the bank.

 

[Danog]

Really want Miller, but don't want to get rid of any of my starting mids.

Baker to SDK
Cripps to Miller

and you should have enough left for Hewitt > Lloyd/Crisp/Stewart
