[Hodges]

Im looking for a center worth around $240 -260K. Any suggestions? At the moment Im leaning towards Ryan Crowley, Nick Malceski or Scott Pendlebury.

Foley or Burgoyne

My ruck division was a revolving door last year with injuries. I had to trade far too much to get fit ruckman on the paddock. The big guys just drop like flies. ......... BUT, now I have backup.

worst idea yet

You will have the safest ruck divison not the best.

Hows that the best funky.... urs is just the least likely to play one less.

Id say its also the least efficient.

Last year I was constantly exposed from injuries to my rucks. At various stages of the season I copped injuries to Cox, Everitt, Simmonds, Charman, and a couple of other fringe players. I used something like 7 trades for covering ruck injuries alone. Most of the year I either had to play Ryder as a ruck or just have a blank spot on the field (and an instant 0). Without proper backup you'll be forced to trade certain players. Even if they're out for just a couple of weeks. This year I won't be wasting trades on minor injuries to important players. Hence I want to have a strong bench capable of replacing quality with quality. It's called depth.

but this year you only need 2 ruckmen nnot four so less chance of having someone go down. spending 300k on a bench player is not a good idea your team will be to weak in other positions that actually score points, unlike the bench

 

[Hodges]

Made a few changes.

Backs
L Gilbee
A Walker
G Birchall
M Johnson
T Croad
J Adcock
J Koschitzke
-----------
X Ellis
M Riggio

Centers
C Judd
L Hodge
M Murphy
M Rischitelli
R Griffen
S Pendlebury
------------
B Gibbs
D Armitage

Rucks
A Sandilands
D Hille
-----------
B Hudson
J Griffen

Forwards
B Hall
M Pavlich
C Cornes
B Fevola
A Monfries
N G Brown
L Franklin
-----------
Al Davey
L Jetta

Im mainly after opinions on the following players:

M Johnson (Freo)
M Rischitelli
D Hille

Are they good Dt'ers? Or should I be looking to trade them out for different players? Would J Charman be a better option than Hille?

 

[pol06]

johnson is a great pickup, will go so well. hille not bad, rischitelli played bad in nba gf.. i would stay clear of him

 

[Drummond]

Make a few more.

Forwards too strong, downgrade someone and then boost up your centres.

I see your point, honestly. But in my mind, strategy is the key to playing dreamteam. Any keen footy watcher can spot a bargain and field a gun side, but it's how you make decisions throughout the season that determines your success.

Last year, I was all about having a gun starting 22. I carefully picked the best players in every position and then stocked my reverses side with draft kids. I lead for the first half of the season (losing only 1 game), and things looked great. Then injuries took their toll, and I was quickly running out of trades to replace them. By finals time I had no trades, 5 DNPs, and a straight sets exit out of the dream team.

This year I'm in for the long haul. I'm thinking long term by having contingencies in place. It's a drastic change in strategy but it's one I've been determined to do all offseason.

Your team has potential but at the same time has way too many Carlton players. Eddie Betts is the worst selection I have ever seen.

 

[sammyson]

Danyle pearce ( prt) or Houlihan (carlt) ??? any thoughts

 

[Marco]

ey whos the beter pick risichelli, foley, p.burg, pennas or rosa im think rosa will be a monster now that the cuz is out
