I feel like I'm closing in on my starting side.

 

[Andrew Birch]

I don't understand this argument. It gets thrown around a bit.

If he is the fourth best mid rookie available, then isn't he worth it, regardless if he is on the bench or not? Money making is surely more important than getting his scores on the field.

Exacerbating this is the new DPP changes, where I could move Daicos into my backline after Round 6 and be able to play Stephens on field in place of a DEF rookie.

I get that it might be smarter to invest money into other lines (say, a Rachele) but I think Stephens will be a better rookie prospect than Josh in the long run.

If I'm taking a 167k rookie it's because I'm expecting him to score higher than a 123k rookie not because I expect the 167k to make more money. The cheaper rookies nearly always make more cash than the more expensive ones by virtue of the magic number.

Stephens might well end up a better scoring rookie than Rachelle, but Rachelle could well end up the highest averaging Fwd rookie but Stephens only the 5-10 best scoring mid rookie. It's not just about how much cash these rookies make you, points scored on-field is even more important if rank means anything to you.

Pray there are cheaper rookies than McCartin and Minge. Maybe don’t take all 3 of JHF, Daicos and Ward. Rowell if you really want to downgrade someone significant.

Not sure who these cheaper def n fwd rooks are yet??

Hopefully s few pop up and day ..."how you doin,"

Hey vast

How's your preseason team looking?

Still gotta work on my bench but after decades of research ive gone with...

Def: Hayek, Zeta-Jones, Daddario, Kerr, Kournikova, Ivanovic.

Mid: Johansson (C), De Armas (VC), Alba,
Natalie, The other Sexy Robbie, Gadot, Beckinsale, Cates.

Ruck: Kunis & Portman

Fwd: Vikander, Kreuk (Gotta have a POD), Kurylenko, Imbruglia, Theron, Gu (Everyones rookie lock).

Better scoring/make more money is effectively the same though. Stephens is $43k so about 8 points more expensive. Don't think that difference will be significant, especially after a couple of price changes.

If you have 3 mid rookies on field and judge Stephens the next best I'd say pick him even if he's not on field. The only time you don't is if the price difference gets you a better rookie on field somewhere else. Cash gen is king imo.

You’ve got very good taste I’ll give you that.

He won't make as much as a 123k rookie

I’d put Hayek in the midfield. Impossible to execute an effective tackle on her.

No doubt many have tried....

Some of the 124k guys will be duds. If your confident in his JS he's worth the extra bit.

What's you knock on him?

A ruck line of Kunis (1.63m) and Portman (1.60m) is an interesting choice ................I lost my train of thought.

I imagined them in a number of positions.....and um yeah

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Also, Stephens has too much uncontested ball .....too outside for me to consider, unless there's been a change since he was drafted .....but not taking that risk ATS

In the Ruck I’d have Maria Sharapova who is 6’1

 

[buttox]

Todays team
5,3,2,4 setup.
14 Premos + Cogs.
Ideally I would like to downgrade another expensive mid rookie to pay for Laird to Steele.
But this works for now.

Not sure how you're fitting them all under the salary either.

One of the many reasons its called a fantasy team

He just needs to average 65-70 to be good enough, he can do that in an outside role with a spot there for him to take.

You're correct .....it's just that there are options at cheaper prices that will ave at least 65-70 ......Give me Macdonald who tackles hard, adding to his scoring capacity

 

[King_Steele]

Version 1.3 - 2k left over

 

[MacStradbroke]

Besides Cripps and Walsh, the blues have a bang avg midfield. He'll be in there full time.
Full time mid selectable in def.
