What do people think of this team?

Backs: Goddard, Gibbs, Deledio, Broughton, Laidler, Otten, Heppell (Toy, Duigen, Hibberd)

Mids: Montagna, Murphy, Pendlebury, Boyd, Swallow, Gaff (Prestia, Atley, Wallis)

Rucks: Sandilands, Cox (J.Tippet, Bailey)

Forwards: Chapman, Riewoldt, Rioli, Sylvia, Petrie, Krakouer, Mzungu (Richardson, Smith, Matera)

Went with the 4/2/2, 4/2, 2, 4/2/2 setup which I believe is the best all round setup for this game.

Leaves me with 14 premiums, 4 undervalued, 4 rookies.

Thoughts?

Very nice, weaker in the backline than a lot I've seen - first upgrades going in there?

I am a Melbourne supporter and I am still worried about Sylvia - I am just not sure he will give you the scores you are hoping for.

More St Kilda than I'd aim for in Rd 1.

Here's mine:

BACKS:
B Goddard, B Gibbs, B Deledio, G Broughton, J Grimes, A Otten, D Heppell, C Howard, J Toy, N Duigan

MIDS:
D Cross, M Murphy, S Pendlebury, M Boyd, D Swallow, T Mzungu, J Pittard, S Atley, M Hibberd

RUCKS:
A Sandilands, D Petrie, Z Smith, M Bailey

FORWARDS:
P Chapman, L Franklin, M Pavlich, A Goodes, A Krakouer, D Prestia, B Matera, C Richardson, I Smith, D Callinan

 

[Forever a Pie]

Not 100% sure if i should keep this the same, due to all the byes etc. Let me know if you think I should change players to diff positions or trade them completely

BACKS: Goddard, Gibbs, Delidio, H. Shaw, Grimes, Otten, Heppel
(Toy, Duigan, Gillies)

MIDS: Swan, Hodge, Goods, Bartel, D. Swallow, Gaff

Backline is weaker because I have only 4 premiums. Many are going for 5 but this is not a smart move in my opinion. It just makes for an unbalanced lineup. I feel that a 4/2/2, 4/2, 2/mp sub, 4/4/2 is the most balanced system for this game. Those having 5 premiums in defence will leave their mids or forwards under strength.

Not exactly sold on Sylvia. Will monitor this over the coming weeks.

Too much St Kilda? I only have 3 saints players and they are all star premiums?

They have a tough opener and early bye is all - could be an upgrade for them? Unless you want to lock in the prices but either way.

Sylvia is that awkward price - how much have you left in the kitty anyway? A Goodes?

15K approx. Bit worried about Goodes tbh. Had him last season and he was too up and down. Could get worse this season.

I tried to pay some sort of consideration to the byes overall but not with absolute lock premiums. Riewoldt and Goddard are the first two players I picked in my team and Im not going to mess about with wasting trades on them later. I may pay some thought to Montagna.

That's who I was thinking about removing - not the others.

 

[carmi99]

That's who I was thinking about removing - not the others.

Didak + Pavlich instead of Chapman + Sylvia.

Then remove Montagna in the mids for Chapman?

OR leave Chappy out altogether and remove Joey for another mid?

Basically Chapman + Didak + Pavlich OR Chapman + Montagna + Sylvia.

MP flexibility was one of the factors I took into consideration when looking at byes. Having Chappy/Didak in the guts would increase this.

Thoughts?

I reckon your rucks are shocking. You need to ignore West or Blake! Keep Petrie as R2, but downgrade one of your premium mids to a rookie like Gaff & upgrade your R1 to Sandilands!

Backs - Not sure about Duffman, i think theres better options at his price, but apart from that it looks good, although id try and fit Hepell in there

Mids - Looks good, i like the 3 rookies

Rucks - dont think derickx will play early, probably better options there

Fwds - Id downgrade day to either prestia or matera and use that cash to upgrade somehwere else

Heres mine....

I like your team a lot however it contains the dilemma I came across too in my team. That is 4 forwards missing in round 6. Chapman, Rioli, Smith and Mzungu. I don't have the answer to it other than letting one of them go unless you are prepared to take the donut which could be more if Richardson or Matera don't play.

Why have Gibbs in the middle when you can have him the backline. Same with Lids. Awesome options for the backline. Love midfield scores in the backline. Not sure why you would put Chaps in the mids as well.. More use as a FWD I believe.. Not sure about having Buddy and Cyril together..

Looks very nice - forwards are weak though.

You are taking a big risk on Stevey J and in Round 7 you haveHawks, Freo, Geebung on byes and you're probably going to get donuts up forward - just something to be weary of!

Here's mine - no one ever replies with feedback

BACKS:
B Goddard, B Gibbs, B Deledio, J Grimes, A Otten, D Heppell, N Duigan, B Jacobs, J Toy, C Howard

A Sandilands, D Cox, J Tippett, M Bailey

FORWARDS:
P Chapman, N Riewoldt, L Franklin, J Riewoldt, D Petrie, A Krakouer, B Matera, C Richardson, J Lamb, I Callinan

I have 232k in the kitty - I just had to minimise having too many guns from the same team - not sure about J Watson and J Riewoldt.

Ideas? THANKS

If you rate my team or anyone's team I will give you some feedback

 

[Scottabe_pendles]

If you rate my team or anyone's team I will give you some feedback

Yeah was in th process rating your team actually tough on IPhone but review below:

Backline is good, Seems to be a good standard of cheap backs making it easier in selecting from that area - your team problems in back could be similar to mine if the young players don't debut or perform as only 4 players who are KNOWN to score ...

In midfield getting Jobe is an interesting call rememberin he can't play your grand final so means using a sideways trade if you want to win league rather than overall... Good as bombers don't have by for first 8? Rounds...
Only 4 True quality players in midfield same as backs maybe one player could be upgraded?

Rucks: stacked - will Joel tippet get a game? > haven't heard that he's near it

forwards: Good forward lineup - my query would be will jack reiwold improve or was last year his best possible outome - not a fan personally as he isn't high possession player so rely on goals to get a scores (hurts consistency at times - see roughead)

If I had your lineup I'd personally get Petrie in ruck for cox (saving money there) then restructure forward line setup... If
u have the faith in cox maybe a slight downgrade on Jobe for an upgrade on jack or visa versa... For mine you are right in questioning them

I think it might be me but I'm looking for great value even from my premiums where you seem to have a few at their absolute peak or absolute beginning?
Just a thought...

Overall I like your team (probably as so close to mine)

Backs: Nice and strong

Mids: Will Murphy have a good season? He is awkwardly priced. Can Swallow stand up to the heat now that tags will go for him over Harvey?

Forwards: I am a Melbourne supporter and I wouldn't put Sylvia in - he will be inconsistent so you will need to trade him by years end to upgrade to a real premium. Maybe with your extra kitty just get a real premi?

I have been burnt by Dangerfield twice, he is #1 on my SC blacklist... if you haven't I suppose you can roll the dice, he hast o breakout eventually...

I think our two teams are very different - you have a lot of mid range which I have avoided completely. I would be weary of them scoring the points consistently although there is some I love there: Higgins was injured last year - if he is better then he will be a keeper for sure!

I have recently swapped from the Petrie ruck on field to Cox, he is looking good this year methinks!

I am up to swap the sub rucks - they are just placeholders at this point Who would you recommend?

 

[syl]

I want to sack Jack R as well - I just don't know who to put up forward? I can afford ANYONE! I just don't want too many from the same teams!

Any suggestoins would be appreciated
