Noticing a lot of people have warnock locked in as 3rd ruckman.

Why does everyone get concerned with ruck bench options? We only get to choose 3 emergencies, and I always select emergency for backs, mids, and fwds (as these have 7 or 6 players and more likely for a late withdrawl). Therefore I never have an emergency ruck. I just choose 2 x 77k ruckmen on bench and use the extra cash elsewhere.

Sure its taking a bit of a risk your starting 2 ruckmen arent going to miss a match, but If a starting ruckman goes down with an injury and is out for a week or longer I trade him to a new ruckman. (if you are unlucky you may lose 3 ruckmen a year and thats only 3 trades worst case scenario)

Id rather waste a trade and get a decent score that week if I know he's going to miss, than cop a 30pt week from warnock. If my new ruckman scores 60-80 or higher, surely im better off, even though I used a trade for this.

Whats everyones thoughts?

Just curious, cos I know Im always selecting my emergencies to cover back, mids and forwards.
 
Some very strong sides coming out of here.

Was wondering if I could get some views on my side and how it is shaping:

BACKS: Enright, Carrazzo, Fisher, Hodge, Shaw, Malceski, Waters (Maguire, Silvagni)
MIDS: Bartel, Gibbs, Selwood, Cotchin, Trengove, Martin (Barlow, Shuey)
RUCKS: Kreuzer, Tippet (Warnock, McNamara)
FORWARDS: Riewoldt, O'Keefe, Giansiracusa, Franklin, Ziebell, Dangerfield, Rohan (Rockliff, Podsiadly)

Some views on this would be really appreciated.

Looks good man,

Still not sold on Lobbe, I would love for him to play but im not 100% confident he will be. Keep track of it!

Any thoughts on the below?

Downgrade cotchin to bastinac. then put barlow on the field and have bastinac on the bench.

Use the extra cash to upgrade buddy who isnt playing round 1

Let us know how you go when one of your on field ruckmen get injured and you have a bloody Max Gawn as back up. Yeah nah good plan:confused:
 
Good side. (I may be saying that because it's similar to mine though). I'd be iffy about Corey Enright though, and I can see Broughton plateauing, or even going backwards on last years form. But that's all I can find to criticise.

My team:

Backs: Goddard, Gram, Scotland, Hodge, Harbrow, Dempsey, Kennelly (Maguire, 77k)
Midfield: Bartel, Hayes, Stanton, Trengove, Martin, Barlow (Shuey, Bastinac)
Rucks: Kruezer, Hille (Warnock, Lobbe)
Forwards: Riewoldt, Goodes, Murphy, Gray, Tippet, Medhurst, Dangerfield (Gumbleton, Dennis-Lane)

15k left in the bank

This is one of the best team i have seen posted on bigfooty this summer.

It has good structure, good balance on mid-pricers and rookies, its got balls, it's got captain options, it has DP links, it has value, well done sir!

9.5/10.
 
Backs – Goddard, Enright, Duffield, Hodge, H. Shaw, Hunt, Waters (Maguire, Nason)

Mids – Bartel (c), Mitchell, Ball, Trengove, Martin, Barlow (Shuey, Bastinac)

Rucks – Sandi, NicNat (Warnock, Grimley)

Forwards – Roo, Goodes, O’Keefe, Gia, Grey, Zeibell, Warren(Magurie, Hitchcock)

$0 left.....:)


Only concerns are Grey and Warren..... - who could be Dangerfield????


thoughts guys please!!!

only reason i got lobbe is the ruc/fwd move, may be handy later in year.

yours...

bit of work to be done

backs: not sure on lake, think theres better at that price. hawskley not a good pick, nor is sheppard. look for the cheap backs returning, (hunt, waters, kennely etc). broadbent far too expensive for bench.

mids: very good, except 146k for morabito too much for bench, bench players shouldnt be more than 105k.

rucks: nice, kreuzer risky. re-think reserves, skipper injured..

fwds: hitchcock starting is a bit iffy, also remember franklin out round 1 and neither of ur reeserves will play to cover him.

all in all, mainly just reserves need changing which will save moneyy to spend elsewhere.

hope this helps man.

My point is that if the starting ruckman gets injured during the game and has scored some points, even an emergency ruckman wouldnt contribute on that occassion. However if the starting ruckman is injured and out for a week or more, I will trade him to a new ruckman who isnt injured, and will play the next week for certain.

It uses a trade, but im not relying on crappy warnock type rucks to fill the gap during an injury period

mmmm ok here goes:



What do you think... ??? ruck to much of a risk????

I need help.. not had much time to put team together lately.. works busy..

ps. i know McVeigh is out first round but i got cover (i hope)
 
Does anyone have any tips about how I could improve this team? Would be much appreciated....

Very unsure about Nicoski. Also no Goddard's a big gamble. But could be one that pays off seeing as how many people have him.

I wouldn't pick Jolly. He was decent at the Swans with their high stoppage game. He won't have that many ball ups/throw ins at Collingwood, so I'd be certain his score will drop.

And i wouldn't trust Chapmans hamstrings. Too injury prone for that price IMO.

Could be the start of a winning formula.
If you are worried about your ruck, 1 option could be to choose Tippet as a foward instead. Then Choose another ruck eg Hille. This way you can still bring Tippet as a ruck by substituting him for Lobbe. Just an idea.

Not sure about this.. Don't know if I like my rucks, are my forward benchies the best bets and is it risky having the 3 guys in the backline coming back from injury... Argh. I need help, I been staring at this crap for to long!

Now this I don't get. How is Tippet more durable in the forward than in the ruck? Why add a risky ruck in Hille?

Great side, really is. I like the choice of duffield and i have been trying to squeeze hiim in mine i just have a phobia of selecting senior freo players.

Enjoy seeing the 3 rookie mid strat, i just dont have the balls to do it, but if they play the 1st 15 rounds and score decent, it will out play the normal approach.

Rucks are fine, Hille is obviously a risk, but i think will play out the year, i dont know if thats my essendon bias taking over.

And then your fwd look strong.
 
Ok, i do like my side but i do have some issues with it, im not looking for people to tell me what to do, but maybe some advice and other options that i might have missed on or forgotten about.

1.Happy with the core of my backline, but im not sure on the remaining 2 spots. Not sure if they both should be there or should one go?

2. Core of the middle im happy with, but should i be leaving out trengove ?

3. Rucks are the biggest risk i have ever taken with DT. Not sure how to help that section out.

4. Fine with the FWD line, thinking of squeezing Tippet in, but just cant see a way to that.

5. Having $900 left over! Never gone into a season with that in my kitty, will that catch me out later?
