That's my team View attachment 1623696
Pretty happy ATM
Spose there's 23 rookies there plus the donut at R3 so 24.13 looks to be the magic number at the mo, so just need two more!
These are probably the most likely sub 300K:
DEF:
Ginbey
Wilmot
Cincotta
Chesser
Cowan
Fahey
McVee
Blanck
N. Murray
Michalanney
MID:
Ashcroft
C. Mackenzie
W. Phillips
O. Hollands
Davey Jnr.
B. Humphrey
RUC:
Who cares, it'll be a donut
FWD:
Sheezel
Phillipou
F. Greene
Chandler
Pedlar
Sturt
Caminiti
Haha why?Wow, you have a big one - said the actress to the bishop!
It’s a pretty bang average list of rookies this season. Ashcroft, Ginbey, Mackenzie, Phillips and Sheezel all feel safe JS and scoring wise but starts to drop away pretty dramatically after that. Seeing a lot of teams with Cincotta at D6 and Wilmot and Chesser filling the bench. To me that is fraught with danger with all 3 having minimal JS and scoring volatility. I think Ginbey at D6 is the play but again, makes it hard as there’s no obvious mid pricer or under priced premiums down in defenceSpose there's 23 rookies there plus the donut at R3 so 24.
Starting with the forwards.
Sturt probably wont be named with Walters and Frederick back in
Don't know much about Caminiti but would think that Sharman is ahead of him, not sure about when Membrey is back but pretty poor JS is what I see.
Pedlar looks to be fighting for a spot with Keays, but still plays as a forward in a poor side.
Chandler is a small forward who we all know have limited scoring opportunities albeit playing in a better side
Greens as a KPF in a poor team at least looks like he could give a spike score or two, plus has JS at least until their other KPF's are back
Phillipou is a gun but has no defensive side to his game yet and will be playing forward in an average side.
Sheezel will be a star of the game and I hope that the Roos don't play him like they did with JHF, he showed good poise when played back and hopefully gets up and around the ball.
For me there's really just 2 or 3 options here that fit my bill of scoring and JS
The mid options really says it all.
Ashcroft....
Mackenzie (if he get's the role) don't want to see another Ward type scenario
Phillips ditto
Hollands, still has to be named over O'Brien (should be a monty)
Davey, looks the goods, but will have scoring issues
Humphrey, looks similar to Sheezel but will probably be locked away in the forwards.
I could look at 4/5 on this line with Davey as Utility, Humphrey is a chance but it's between him and Sheezel at that price for me
With the backs.
Don't know much about Murray or Michalanney but they seem like lockdown types who traditionally don't score well, stand to be corrected here (as well as everywhere else)
Cowan and Cincotta are fighting for the same spot, and TBH I don't have much faith in either for scoring ability.
Wilmot and Chesser have reasonable scoring opportunities by playing on the wing and are good bench choices.
Don't even know if Fahey will be named but he does have a hell of a left peg on him
McVee is probably out when Salem returns which could be soon
Reckon you'd be lucky to see a score of 40 from Blanck
Ginbey should be on field in everyone's team
I can really only see 3 options here, 4 if you're desperate.
Like I said, 14-16 out of that lot means scraping the barrel for bench spots.
I'm not poo pooing anyone but for me, I'd rather have performing rookies on the bench and making money.
Good synopsis! I'm also of the opinion the rookie class this year may be weak and so starting best 22 $300-$500k players could result in not just in more points but also generate more cash - which would be a deviation from the norm.Spose there's 23 rookies there plus the donut at R3 so 24.

Welcome to the Board ....hope to see you more thru the seasonBig time lurker, rare time poster. Gonna try post a bit more this season.
Fairly settled on this team. Much like a few of you, I've bought in to the pre-season hype and brought in a couple of players that weren't on my radar originally in Callaghan, Gulden & Flanders.
DEF - Paid up to reduce the midpricers/risky rookies on field. I think Doch, Daws and Cumming will all be top 6 come years end. I haven't gone as far as checking stats to see if there's any correlation, but I feel Cumming is under priced due to Himmelberg's stint down back last year stealing his kick ins and marks. Daicos has been in and out of my team all preseason but couldn't squeeze him in to this version.
MID - Paid up for Laird. Easy perma-captain. Tried chasing him last year and could never get him in with the constant injuries/patching holes. Love watching Macrae play (when he's on) and don't remember a time he hasn't been in my team, I think he can bounce back after a down year. Tom Green for the breakout - some have flagged his inability to mark/tackle after the praccy match, but he only had 2 games last year where he didn't record a mark or tackle. Callaghan was very impressive so I've dropped Worpel to him to free up some cash. M6-8 pretty standard.
RUC - Marshall locked. With so many question marks over a lot of the rucks I've gone the cheaper Darcy. Don't love it or hate it. Kinda meh.
FOR - Pretty standard. 3 of the big 4, if you include Dunkley in the mids. Gulden hard to ignore after his game. Have had all of Maclean, Bruhn, Henry at F4 but Flanders leaves me with exactly $0k ITB and happy to take a punt on him. Looked good on the weekend, and being the higher priced player out of those previously mentioned it'll be easier to drop him down to one of them than try and chase him.
UTIL - $200K
Feedback appreciated.

On Sheezel, he’ll predominantly play forward, but will also spend some time behind the ball and the occasional centre bounce, depending on match circumstances. Adams and Clarko view him as very flexible.Spose there's 23 rookies there plus the donut at R3 so 24.

I'm starting one $200K rookie on the field in my backline, but with Macrae going back to his inside role this year he's every chance to equal or outscore Brayshaw. So I'd personally play one $200K rookie, but not to upgrade Macrae to Brayshaw. Others may disagree.Hi all is it crazy to put a 200 rookie on the field to esentialy upgrade Macrae to Brayshaw?
Great team. Reckon we have about 4 different players. Rate the DPP with rookies through the mids. Think it’s a good playBig time lurker, rare time poster. Gonna try post a bit more this season.

I was thinking the same but the first 5 rounds for Brayshaw is hard to pass upI'm starting one $200K rookie on the field in my backline, but with Macrae going back to his inside role this year he's every chance to equal or outscore Brayshaw. So I'd personally play one $200K rookie, but not to upgrade Macrae to Brayshaw. Others may disagree.
All of them played out of position last year means I'll pick all of them. Don't care about how many players I have from one team.Kelly, Whitfield, Green, Calaghan and Cogs... wow!
Hi all is it crazy to put a 200 rookie on the field to esentialy upgrade Macrae to Brayshaw?
Yes, I'm certainly not suggesting that Brayshaw isn't a good pick in his own right.I was thinking the same but the first 5 rounds for Brayshaw is hard to pass up
Jeeze, i just signed up to the fantasy premium account and looked at bye structure for the first time.

Not good, I won't be making any changes though. Thankfully they're all round 15 so I have plenty of time to fix the above up.
