Watch Coad very closely in the NAB cup fellas, the few times I saw him play in the VFL his opponent killed him. He may get the ball but...

There's also a fair bit of talk Hutchins (i think) will get a go before Coad, so he might not even play first up. Source - Gold Coast board

Coad will play because he is ready made for AFL and he is a mature aged player
 
for the life of me, I have no idea why some people are so persistant of starting 2 rookies in the midfield, forwards or rucks, and on some occassions, starting 3 !

crazy, sure if it comes of they are stars but more of a chance to fail than to succeed. Even if it might be Swallow & Harris. Starting 1 rookie in each position is enough for me.

You're kidding?

Having only 1 rookie on each line forces you to go with mid prices. Why pick up a mid pricer when you can get a rookie that can average the same score?

Do you know about the long thin key at the bottom of the keyboard called the 'space bar'??

Does amazing things like makes your team actually readable :eek:
 
Thoughts ?
Disregard alot of the out of date rookie selections (cant know too much about them yet)

Brendon Goddard, Corey Enright, Brett Deledio, Greg Broughton, Jed Adcock, Andy Otten, Dyson Heppell
Ben Jacobs, Josh Toy, Nicholas Duigan

Dane Swan, Jimmy Bartel, Bryce Gibbs, Colin Sylvia, Mitchell Wallis, David Swallow
Daniel Harris, Tendai Mzungu, Ian Callinan

Aaron Sandilands, Josh Fraser
Zac Smith, Mitchell Curnow

Paul Chapman, Alan Didak, Adam Goodes, Nick Riewoldt, Mitch Morton, Chris Knights, Andrew Krakouer
Brandon Matera, Cameron Richardson, Isaac Smith

Because rookies aren't guaranteed playing time on the field. And with the rookies if you go with say like Swallow & Harris, there is always a chance round 1 and their other bye round your midfield scores will be severly depleated.

For example, I'd rather pick Nathan Foley and have him in my starting 22 over a 1st year rookie. As long as Foley is not injured, he is guaranteed alot of game time, whilst a rookie isn't.
 
after Jacobs poor showing last night, yes I know it was only a t20 format and he will go heaps better in the normal format but not taking any chances. So this is my adjusted team for now

I have $23,300 left over. Any ideas how I can improve this side with my money left over ?

Defenders - Goddard, Gibbs, Duffield, Waters, Grimes, Otten, Hibberd
(Faulks, Duigan, Puopolo)

Midfielders - Swan, Montagna, L.Anthony, Foley, Selwood, Swallow
(Mzungu, Atley, I.Smith)

Rucks - Petrie, Ryder
(Bailey, Z.Smith)

Forwards - Chapman, Sylvia, B.Harvey, N.Riewoldt, C.Rioli, Krakouer, Callinan
(Prestia, Darling, T.Walsh)

Ben Jacobs out indefinately, put wallis on the bench start Callinan but saying that, your midfield for round 1 might be struggling due to the fact Wallis might not play seniors early on and Gold Coast has the bye.

So for round 1, you may be starting with Mzungu & Callinan in your starting midfield.

200K left over, I would spend it on upgrading Dolly to Sandilands but I am just not sure if he can recreate his 2010 form.

Other than that, it is pretty much a cookie-cutter team and is 95% identical to all the rest:p
 
have gone a bit more expensive in the midfield than most people, but still think this team looks decent overall. taking a risk with Leuenberger in the ruck but i think he will really come into his own this year and average close to 90. also have dp link on the bench in the rucks so i can swap Petrie, however it has cost me a 3rd ruck

Backs: Goddard, Gibbs, Deledio, Broughton, Adcock, Otten, Toy
Bench: (Talia, Duigan, Puopolo)

Mids: Swan, Bartel, Montagna, Boyd, Swallow, Harris
Bench: (Mzungu, Heppell, Smith)

Rucks: Sandilands, Leuenberger
Bench: (J. Tippet, McCauley)

Forwards: Riewoldt, Franklin, Sylvia, Rioli, Knigts, Petrie, Krakouer
Bench: (Matera, Richardson, Callinan)

Watch Van Berlo because he hurt his hamstring i think he will be ok for R1
Charman is out not sure when he will come back

Nice job. I'm on the Luey Burger too.

Perhaps look at McKernan instead of Talia down back. Seems to be a better chance of playing more games. I think I read on the Crows Board that Talia isn't fit at the moment too.
 
Back: Goddard, Gibbs, Deledio, Adcock, Wilson, Otten, Heppell, Toy, Watson, Puopolo

Mids: Swan, Boyd, Bartel, Montagna, N. Foley, Atley, D. Swallow, Harris, I. Smith.

Rucks: Sandilands, Mumford, Z. Smith, Campbell

Fwds: Franklin, Sylvia, Johnson, Giansiracusa, Knights, Petrie, Krakouer, Mzungu, Richardson, Callinan

$28,400 remaining.

I think I've got a pretty well balanced team here and some of the bench players/rookies may be swapped around closer to kick off depending the the pre season of some of them and others who may stand out. Feedback appreciated.

Just be a bit careful with the durability of your team - Otten, Foley, Knights, Petrie all coming off long-term injuries, Sylvua and Adcock are always suspect.

Don't like Wilson - better options out there.
