Happy with my structure. Imagine i'll burn one of either Lids of Dusty to bring in T Mitchell if he looks like getting a gig with consistency. S Mitchell very underselected for mine, I know he is getting into risky age territory but is a proven accumulated in arguably the best team in the league coming off injury, prime target for mine.
Johnny drama I like yr set up, not to indifferent to mine. I've gone fairly light in the back line as I can't find enough good value that will bring me substantial points for money there as too you. Hamling a good option as he will be a sure starter. Might even look at changing up to fit him in. I like yr mid field as you have good guns in there but I do think you should consider Krakouer from port adel as a young gun, he will fire and generate good money for you. Probs take out dumont for him there IMO. Rucks are nice money well spent just hope nic Nat isn't one game one and one game off as we know he can do, ruck bench would be better served if you had Cox from the pies as he will definitely be getting game time. Mitch Clark about the only diffence to my forward line and a great cheap option. I'd love to have him but too many changes to fit him in. Over all a good SOLID team should do well with that just watch NAB and make changes accordingly as we all will be.
I take it france is buddys brother?
Port Adel drafted him for fair reason, and they could use his speed and great skills running off the half back line. Understand that he hasn't played AFL for two years but was tipped to bring HIGH scores just before he walked away in 2011. In coming back to the Port Magpies did gain PLENTY of best on votes in the 15 or so games that he played. Didn't realise he's was THAT old a fellow. But he has plenty to prove at this elite level, and if he hangs around long enough to be a good cash cow then he's worth a spot, even if he's warming the pine..I see him in this side, he's got a big enough frame to bust the lines and his skills will keep him in most sides. Let's watch this NAB challenge space to see how he fares but IMO, he's a starter.
What's this about Collingwood?
Yep, that collingwood remark has been corrected, apologies Feerits Elf, thinking two things at once. This cox fellow is a man mountain, tall, I can't think of any body that has been taller that has played the game. He has an AMAZING leap on him, he has excellent speed over a short sharp distances and has adapted to our game very very well, has got skills. There is a whisper of excitement down at pie land over this bloke, and I think you'll see him on the paddock for what it's worth.you may see him in a forward role before you know it, they'll be slotting hin in somewhere.
Has he even played a VFL game yet? Whilst being tall is all well and good, has he actually played footy at a half decent level? Shawn Bradley was really tall, it didn't make him a good basketball player.
How do you rate my side The Oz, apart from Cox, how does it stack up.
How does my side look to you Feerits Elf, pick it to bits if you would.
hey mate
I think there's better mid rookie options than Cripps, for less cash. Rockliff's price has maxed out and will be a good trade in target. TBC on the bench is not a good idea. Better to get a rookie R/F and get Ryder/Lycett in your forward line. Defence is quite weak also (Scharenberg is out early btw)
