[Coona Blues]

YeoShuey think you need an SSP addition

I agree.

WalshistheGOAT The Old Dark Navy's Mind if I have another pick due to the Newman news?

Or we judging based on talent and not actual season? I don't want to be judged because he is "injured"

 

[Coona Blues]

I agree.

Pretty sure Harry Cunningham wasn’t taken, closest to like for like.

Yeah, but I'd feel incredibly ripped off here either way.

I will probably just leave it and take the L.

Replace him, it's fair and reasonable given the timing

 

[Jacks Seething Rage]

To be honest the Newman news has sucked any enjoyment out of the last little climb to the summit.

First thought...how did I end up with the last pick of the first round and the last pick of the last round? Doesn't matter, the Jack Offs don't trade in excuses.

No real positional needs to address so I'm really just going with a glue guy...the fact that he is playing great footy is a bonus. Playing career best footy at 32, played every game in a 27 game run to the flag, welcome to the Jack Offs Ryan Lester.

Won't go nuts with commentary, but have tried hard to keep eyes on the prize. A flag is the aim, so production over potential.

Ok all the teams are done then.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I agree.

I thought we were judging based on the players themselves, not current status, but durability would be a component of any judgement. Others are talking about ranking points midseason and end of season, but I'm not sure if that's just something some are doing. You'd think Newman would be more valuable than anybody left.

I agree with that. I won't be changing it then.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I've changed mine since and have information to add.

So we should wait for the thread before saving etc

You guys can all post your final team presentations here, and I'll add them to the other thread in draft order and then open it up for discussion.

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

I agree.

I reckon if they're on a list, you can pick them...injury shouldn't interfere with this process

The person I would have replaced him with was recently taken too, so definitely not changing him up now. Lol.

Apart from getting people to vote on the best team and have to top 4 face off etc., I was thinking we could offer some other awards (because we live in a world where everyone gets a participation award now ). Something along the lines of....

• Team with the best youth
• Team with the best defense, best midfield and best attack
• Team with the best bench depth
• Coach who caused the most holdups/pain

etc.

This is exactly what I was thinking (and alluded to earlier).

Team most likely to win flag this year
Team most likely to win multiple flags
Best defence, midfield, forward line, bench
Youngest/oldest
Most/least experienced (games played)
The Ross Lyon award for dour/defensive team
The Brett Ratten award for all out attack

 

[YeoShuey]

Whoever has Liam Ryan... I feel sorry for you too with what was reported on the news tonight.

Might have a tough time winning this too.

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I'm just going to move them across as I see them. I won't put them in draft order. Too much mucking around.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

A few considerations when I was selecting the side, generally wanting speed, agility and some versatility. Also wanted less ready to retire types

In terms of flexibility, Holmes, Comben, Evans, Durham, TDK, Kelly, Sheezel, Moore, Himmelberg, Owens, Rioli, Ratugolea, O'Halloran, Jones, Maric, can play different positions and or roles

Backline options provide speed, agility and flexibility, with solid disposal and they can defend different type forwards

Mids could almost be classified as consistent blue collarish, with the exception of Sheezel, but rotating options do add xfactor

Forwards once again offers plenty of speed per position and all of them are comfortable pushing or rotating through the middle

Interchange also offers flexibility with O'Halloran and Jones

Sub position continues to evolve and sides are using different types. Maric for me fits the bill as he can play as a defender, wingman or forward

Is this your final version. I think I moved an earlier version across.

I'm missing a couple. Maybe ferris and Coona.

Let me know what I've forgotten people.

Yes this is final, unless you want to do profile pics for me too

Noooo, took me ages

 

[YeoShuey]

Can I do profile pics for my players too?

Actually, best I don't... I will get sad when I get to Newman

This old bloke can’t help himself. I have to look for young talent, for break out players.

A modicum of experience and grunt, not that the youngsters lack grunt.

The Old Dark Navy's would like to edit this further if/when you take it across. Been busy for a change

I don't think campaigners is what you want to call them on this forum. Just saying. Not a good word to use on here

Do whatever you want to really. We just want to open it up to the masses tonight ideally.

I think we're still missing ferrisb

I think it was deliberate. Bit of mongrel and all that.

If it's deliberate, all power to them then!! Ha ha.
