Someone definitely ****ed something. Or they just haven’t worked out how to add a 23rd game
If they keep going at this pace, they'll finish at the end of January

Does it really matter when it's up? there's no pre-season games happening. we already know all of the prices, and positions anyway. Plus, the players aren't even training so it's not like anyone is reading training reports and needs to change their team around. Not to mention the fact that a guy on Bigfooty already uploaded a sheet where you can make your own team anyway. And even if it does open up everyone has 90% the same players anyway. We have many months to worry about our team

Mine is too stick to my never again list. No more getting tempted by heeney, preussy, whitfield and number of other players that burnt me in the pass.

At least they’ve taken defender status off Whit. Wait until he’s loose man in defence and they give him DPP in round 6. See how strong your willpower is then.

Yep and gets injured right after you wilt and get him in and then dont sell because he's a one weeker that somehow becomes three weeks and then you finally **** him off and then he comes back with a 180, so you get him back in and he gets injured again. Magestic ****ery!At least they’ve taken defender status off Whit. Wait until he’s loose man in defence and they give him DPP in round 6. See how strong your willpower is then.

Are there any programs or sites like the drawing board where we can put our team together with the confirmed prices?

This has worked very well for me. I've added a position column for myself so I can see DPP but this has the basics.
Before we start getting pre-season data, one of the key things I look for is back half of the year performance as an indicator for coming in strong to a new role or added responsibility. Extract below is from my shortlist sorted by highest differential in the first half as opposed to second half of the season (from the Byes and beyond).
Josh Ward, Conor Rozee, LDU, Cogs, Laird, Richards, Salem, Daicos, and McCluggage are a few of the names that pop out to me. Anyone have a favourite from this lot or have I missed anyone (my shortlist only has roughly 280 relevant players)
Ignore the projections at this stage, they're just chicken scratch at this stage.
Also ignore the Wingard highlighting.

If Yeo was a lot cheeper would have been under the old system i would be interested, Dangerfield has called Holmes Chris Judd like so he could break out, Marshall obviously locked R1 unless he ends playing Full Forward

Holmes must be winning the Brownlow this year in his 3rd season. Judd like
He's on my watch list, and could very well push AA squad if he continues on his current trajectory from last year. Was the highest rated wingman in the comp for the second half of the year, and has traits that very few others possess.
Danger wasn't saying he IS Judd like, more that he COULD get there given the very rare skillset he possesses.
Most players have either elite speed or elite endurance, but Max has both. His disposal under pressure has increased dramatically, and he has a burst from the contest that is Danger like. He needs to work on his decision making, but that improved a lot last year too - and will come with increased size to stand up in the contest.
He likely will never reach the heights of Judd, but he has the traits to make him a very good player if he continues building as quickly as he has. I was mocked by some for calling him Danger with better kicking (early Danger at the Crows when skinnier), but a lot on our board have come around to it after his dramatic improvement last year.
As the premiers, we have some talented young players, but you ask anyone on our board and they'll tell you who they think has the most upside of any player and who could become a superstar - the consensus is Max Holmes.

Anyone starting Andy Brayshaw with 3 potential tags in the first 3 games?
Saints
North
Eagles

If there's a tag he will destroy all 3 of them. Saints the only one who is a minor worry...but no-one from North or WC comes to mind when thinking of decent taggers

Shiel/Howe both moved to North in the off-season following uncle clarko
Yeo is now fit at WCE and could do a defensive job

If we're worrying about Yeo doing a tag, then we should be worrying about every team running a tag? Everyteam has a player that 'could do a defensive job'. And then doesn't it get derivative?
Mmm but none of them have the tank that Bray has. He'll just work them into the ground. As FBI said, anyone can tag - so I'm only concerned about those with genuine taggers. 2 out of 3 of Mills, Bray and Touk for me at the moment
