even McKercher?

Yeah he deserves it too. I'll add him back later when he's served his punishment.

 

[Ah12]

Bonner awkwardly prices and a mid but gee in this saints system he will score.

No Sinclair though. He's getting his junk.

[matty lloyd the champ]

Anyone completely nuke their team after this weekend?

I've dumped the following players,

• Adams for Jordon
• Stewart for Daicos
• Butters for Rozee
• Laird for Dawson
• Brayshaw for Martin
• Fyfe for Cam McKenzie
• Macrae for Fisher
• Z Williams for NWM

Call me reactionary but I feel like they are all pretty logical moves aside from maybe the Laird and Stewart outs.

Adams is straight up injured.

Butters will have a niggle coming into round 1.

Brayshaw's role is uncertain with so many Fremantle mids in there.

Fyfe is too handball happy and a big sub risk.

Macrae has had a limited preseason with no practice matches at all. Not to mention, Sanders and Harmes look good so CBA's are unlikely to trend upwards for him.

Zac Williams looks line ball to play the opening rounds.

Couldn’t get the pill

 

[tigs2010]

Tom Powell had 7 CBAs in the first. Then Simpkin went down, Phillips came on and took the CBAs and Powell played the Simpkin role

Is it just me? Or is it just NQR, getting his junk?

Lot's of players that I had a watch on have confirmed their roles, well for me anyway, pretty much my whole team in fact. Brought in.....

Martin
Newcombe
Fisher
Rankine
Jordon
Wines
Bowes
Marshall

Confirmation of rookies on field and bench, although have Laurie and Lohmann on the forward bench, would like to slot Lazzaro instead of Laurie but $26k short and have no idea where to find it.

 

[Ah12]

Hes been that good and being a left footer i think he adds something for them. Sinclair can go into the midfield. Its a risk no doubt but the signs have been promising

So if Simpkin is good for round 1 your thinking Powell will be fine?

I've taken him out. Had him last year and was all over the shop.

 

[danster168]

I'm totally jumping on Bonner. They've brought him in for a reason, he's super cheap, in form. Sure Sinclair can come back in but so what, you can have more than 1 seagull on a team

 

[Phar Ace]

Seems a similar role, score has been inflated by the goals and free kicks for

and he's getting better at it - to be fair

 

[Phar Ace]

Xerri or Grundy for R2 going to be a tough call.

Grundy will tell us himself at about 10.30pm on Thursday.

 

[Exambolor]

and he's getting better at it - to be fair

Oh absolutely, probably my favourite Saints player currently.

But he's right on that Rankine tier, although Izak has the safety cushion of CBAs

Really wish Ross the Boss would give Mitchito midfield time

So was his head, starting that way again poor bloke.

He definitely looks good. He actually provides a nice alternative to Fyfe with Wilson putting his hand up as fieldable.

Sinclair definitely out Round 1 listening to him and Webster gone for a few minimum.

Can't handle the burden of my team the poor bastard.

Rankine and Bowes? I had them both but neither really confirmed much

Rankine’s scoring was great but he was playing against the wooden spooners and that game did nothing to tell me if he’ll be consistent. Dawson, Laird and Crouch only played 2/3 of a game each. For his price I’m still very wary.

Bowes was good but only played second half so again it’s hard to know whether he’ll have a consistent role going forward either

 

[Phar Ace]

Yeah, it's a big ask to achieve all that mediocrity. I should know

And neither will give you any more clues for nearly 13 more days. Bring on Round 0

 

[Tex Danger]

Fisher and Powell the 2 most interesting for ne

Can fisher force his way in for me (I’m worried about the 3 rebounder mix and half game last week was promising but need to see better insight on the mix)

Is Powell the real deal as a mid rotation and able to hold his place for ne

Also Sheezel, after barnstorming his way into D1 for me last week, does he show again that he is the real deal to step up or do I go back to less premo heavy defence

So turns out fisher did enough to lock himself in and Powell enough to push himself out of my squad.

Sheezel I’m not sure. Prob just enough stay in but not a total lock

LDU I didn’t mention as I didn’t think his firm would sway me (back him in and PS firm meaningless) but I have to admit he did so little that his spot is much more vulnerable and I’ll be a lot more open to teams that don’t have him if alternatives needed to fit in others

And Bonner as a surprise could be in the mix. Feels very pre season reactionary though

It’s very easy to get TOO knee jerky post these games with team changes.

Clarry has been named for Thursday night, fantastic for him personally.

Probably will affect Salem’s role come next week
