I used to start with a similar hybrid structure myself with 5 rookies on-field. One thing to to be mindful of is cash generation. That 1 extra mid pricer often means passing on a few must have gun rookies which come back to bite.

I'm surprised we don't have a team structure thread yet. Be very interesting reading with so many variables this year

Don't think you can define structures yet, given we don't know the availability of Rookies .....that said Mid structures appear set at 5 premo's or 4 premo's & mid-pricer

It's the DEF and FWD structures which have the biggest ????? .....they'll keep changing as more rookie news comes thru

The old premiums / mid pricers / rookies

Mine currently is;

Def - 3 / 1 / 4

Mids - 4 / 1 / 6

Rucks - 2 / 0 / 1

Forwards - 2 / 2 / 4

Mine ....but it changes daily & I wrestle with the DEF

Def ... 3 -0 - 5

Mids ..5 - 0 - 7

Rucks 2 - 0 - 1

Forwards 3 - 2 - 3

It's been said before, but rookies often dictate our starting team structures. It's best to have a back-up plan for your back-up plan just in case Rd1 team selections don't go as expected, but generally there are enough Rd1 rookies available to suit all structures. Not always on the lines we need them in for a balanced team mind you.

Idk, I've started seasons with pure GnR, Hybrid, MPM and I've come to the conclusion that starting team structure makes little difference since my final ranks have remained consistent regardless. How quickly/efficiently you build & complete your on-field team via trading, deal with injuries, cull cash cows at the right time, jumping on the right downgrade rookies, how you navigate the byes as in having a plan in place, how you react to sub-par performances from your premo's as in when to rage-trade/sideways trade and when not to, how well you manage your trades overall has far more baring on your season than your Rd1 team structure imho.

Pretty solid observation and wrap up imo.

Any thoughts on this team first crack pre season team!!!

Fair bit of bench cash there which would be nice to have on field, but you have to run with who you like

 

[JT_the_Man]

Made a $0 in the bank team.

You will need those $117k rookies to come through. Hopefully 1 or 2 102k rookies get a go.

l'm currently at back up plan 6 with number #7 just around the corner...all plans only need a reversal of about 3 players...

Yeah, I highly doubt I actually roll with this. Just saw $0 in the bank.

Agree with all of this except to say all the best strategy in season won't count for shit if your starting side is full of the wrong players. You'll be miles behind in no time.

SC has been won before by a bloke who started 1 premo mid and 10 rookie mids.
We have more flexibility than most realise.

You've clearly never seen some of my recent starting teams.

I don't recall that. Do you remember the team name or year?

 

[buttox]

It was the last poster on BF to win it.
about 10-15 years ago.
His name in here started with ''in" that is about as much as I can remember.
To much scotch drunk between then and now.
toxic might remember his name he was around then. Jiska also.

Tell you what, I'll help you with your starting team and you help me with trades.

I started like a freight train last year then fell away ( Rank 59 after round 5 to 1600 odd at the end)

(I'm joking, there are no friends when the season starts )

After deciding l needed more cash available in the kitty l redid my team...l wouldbe interested to know what people think..l now have $154K compared to only 7k...

 

[SELFCONFESDAFLNERD]

Going back to my mid-priced madness team. Heaps of Lions but i like the depth in each position. (Coleman D5, Berry M6 & Curnow F5)

Looks pretty good. You will probably need to invest a bit more in your bench but thats what the cash in the bank is for. Nice depth in each position

Nice team.

Agree about the rooks though, I wouldn't have any $102k rookies in your side at this stage. Unlikely any of them play and it saves you having to adjust later.
