DEF: 4-2
MID: 5-3
RUCK: 2-0
FWD: 3-3

This is a structure I am loving, and that midfield! Mmmm! :hearteyes:

Only issue is it leaves me with $6k in the bank and can't start with Rowelly.
Thoughts behind the Hall omission .....selectors must have thought hard about that one
 
Imbedded value is the what your talking about.
I think its a big thing.
For example in my mids.
I have 2 x 200k , 2x 150k +4 x 120ishk rookies.
If all goes to plan they will be maturing on different weeks.
Allowing more flexibility with my trade plans.
I just think if a player starts over 250kish ideally you don't want to trade him out.
And if you do have to trade him out you need other options in his price point which can be hard.
While MPM can work, it is possible to have to many speculative picks.
Why do you insist on bringing logic to a discussion :p

MPM all the way baby!

Was between him and the Seagull, and the Gull gets the nod for having done it for longer.

Without Dawson eating into his cheap stats (Dawson took the 2nd most KI for SYD with 74 after Lloyd's 133), I think it presents upside for the Gull of old!

If I was doing midprice madness it would be something like this.
4 rookies on field.
17 ''potential'' premos + Curnow.
12 real premos.

Haha yeah embedded, I get what you're saying but I'm trying to limit the speculation by choosing players that have had role changes (or have been reduced in price because of injuries) and those role changes are reinforced during the pre-season.

I'm planning to trade out my MP's and they'll be the 1st off the rank because of their 'embedded' value, so Coleman and Rioli/Milera will go to uber mids via Daicos and maybe O'Driscoll, Curnow will do the same via JHF. I wont be reducing the amount of rookies on the field (currently 4) but I will be increasing the quality of my team and also have rookies in Def/Fwd with good JS and scoring (money making) potential. The bonus is that both JHF and Daicos have the rnd 14 bye which would be perfect for my planned last double upgrade.

The cost for me is not starting the highest priced players on each line, so in Def I have Hall and Lloyd, who I think have quite a bit of upside to their SP's, Mids are Mitchell, Walsh, Petracca, Jelly and Neale, at the worst I would think they are a solid M4-8, at best maybe M1-5, but banking on somewhere in between. Fwds I have Dusty at F1 then De Goey, Thomas and Heeney who I see as being top 8 Fwds.

Basically, I'm fading all of the top priced options to afford the MP's as against teams that are starting a lot of the top priced options with rookies on field to generate the $ for upgrades.

There you go! There's the winning starting team. All you'd have to do is strengthen the bench both for JS and cash gen. because you're only starting with 4 rookies on the field and also considering Covid impact then I would consider it a very srtong starting team.

After years of only having 30 trades then going a bit MPM had it's drawbacks as #AndrewBirch realised, but maybe, just maybe, this is the year to have a crack at it given the extra 5 trades.
 
Coleman, Rioli, Cogs and Rayner could all be keepers IMO.
Milera and Preuss are terrible picks.
Every risky pick you add to your team adds risk.
Preuss is on the bench and Milera could quite easily go up to Sicily or down to Minge
 
I think my forwardline is set and im fairly happy with my mids and defence. English in the rucks is something ive been warming to recently. Not sure he will stay in my team but for the moment i like the team ive made around him.

Really nice team apart from English.
I think it is best to have a captain option at r2.
 
Preuss is on the bench and Milera could quite easily go up to Sicily or down to Minge
Milera's best year was an 80 average with 4 tones.
This is on top of the injury risk (poor bugger).
To risky. Get Sicily.
I've decided not to talk folks out of Preuss anymore.
Have at it LOL.
 
Yeah English just isn't going to be a dominant ruckman. Hasn't got the tools unfortunately. He would be one of the last players I'd pick from the Bulldogs apart from Gardner, Vandermeer, Cordy and Roarke Smith.

Not entirely because I’m a Geelong man but I really like the Danger pick. If he starts well everyone will be trying to get him in at that price!

He is a legitimate VC option.
You guys play early a bit.
He wont be in my team but I can understand others getting him.

DEF: 4-2
MID: 5-3
RUCK: 2-0
FWD: 3-3

This is a structure I am loving, and that midfield! DPP swings on nearly each line (bar RUCK), and a DEF/MID NPP swing (Uwland) to take advantage of the best scoring rookie off the bench. Mmmm! :hearteyes:

Only issue is it leaves me with $6k in the bank and can't start with Rowelly.
I’m loving this structure too. Think I’ll leave the mpm to the other more ballsy operators.
 
Hickey last year $261k 103 average

It was all going so well until his coach decided it would be fun to horse around with the media regarding his time out for injury. Then I replaced him with Grundy only for him to get injured while Hickey just kept tonning up.

Thankfully, I am finally over it and wasn't permanently scarred...

That’s not the only issue. 4x 102k benchies? Can’t see where you’re going to generate cash here.

  • Tsitas is almost a walk-up start to the Suns, filling the void for Greenwood as a mature inside mid, so no worry there.
  • With Roughead ruled out for the first 5 weeks of the season, 20-year-old Dean has quickly been earmarked as his replacement. Not exactly blessed with a depth of rookies in DEF, so unless another presents, he will be worth the shot.
  • Parker might find it hard to break in early on to a strong Dogs lineup, so he is 50/50 placeholder.
  • Uwland is an intentional NPP given Hayes should play for Port, so taking the same strategy as last year with the usual NPP R3 being switched to someone in the MIDs.
2 out of 4 should play early on, so no real worry as yet. Can easily downgrade Kemp to use funds to upgrade the most questionable in Parker to another rookie.
 
If supercoach was around in the 90's era, early 2000's who would be the locks from all lines
B: McCleod, Ricciuto M/D, Wanganeen, Hodge
M: Buckley, Buddah, Harvey, Wiliams, Libba, Voss, Kelly, West, Cousins, Black
R: Wynd, Stynes, Rehn, Cox, Darcy, White
F: Carey, Ablett, Grant, Mercuri, Richo, Akermanis, Pav
Everywhere: Hird, Kouta, Goodes, Cornes

Tony Lockett with the VC would be sort of epic.
Adrian Macadum for the best rookie of the 90s.

Sorry bud but almost your entire emergency line is weak AF. Uwland/Parker are deadwood on a line with the best generating cash potential. Dean & Tsitas are far from Rd1 starters at this stage, and in the event they are, there is no JS there. You’re hamstrung if they’re dropped or score poorly. Relying on a Kemp downgrade alone won’t solve these problems.

Likewise Dunstall. Bulk pts. Macadam would've been better than Barlow. Forgot McKernan also, had a few good years. Ohhh and Modra.
Edit: Daicos, Sticks, Ratten, Goodwin, Lappin, Chris Johnson with a few free chips.
