Teams Your 2014 SC team Ver 2.0 (Pre NAB)

[Mercuri Rising]

Dogs fans don't seem confident on Pearce getting a Round 1 start, IIRC. That being said, you'll have a better idea in three weeks of course...

There is no reason to attack krk004 who always helps everyone and provides a lot for these boards, and was obviously joking.

If you think not everything written here is crap, then awesome. If you think it is, then awesome. It's just your opinion, and people have different opinions, it's what makes these forums great. But you don't have to attack anyone.

Calm down son,

Everyone has there own reasons for being here, most would say it is to use to 'develop' their SC squads,

just was curious to know your reasons with those 'definitive' statements you made,

 

[Jiska]

Just because some of us don't post much doesn't mean we don't read a lot. I don't expect anyone to tell me anything, if people want to then that's awesome, and thanks to them, if they don't, which you clearly don't, then just don't reply. Simple. Sorry it upsets you so much.

Hence my "sponge" comment.

I'm not exactly sure how it is that you think coming in to a forum and "reading a lot" is contributing to the community and helping out other people. It's fair to say that if everyone was a sponge like yourself, they'd be no posts at all, and this board wouldn't exist. Bigfooty isn't a news site (that's what Jock Reynolds and SC Paige are for), it's an interactive community. If you're coming in here posting up your team and asking for advice, why can't you have the common decency to give someone some advice or feedback on their team? You know, treat others as you would expect to be treated....

 

[Krujan]

I come in here basically to see peoples opinions and views but my side will not be based on information posted on this site. Not saying every little bit of discussion is pointless on this forum either.

So basically you're just here to snoop on other peoples teams and nothing else.

Thoughts guys..? Little different to other teams i've been happy with..

Not bad, I'm assuming you have a fair bit of cash left over?

 

[elMM]

It's pretty simple innit; it's in your interests to contribute - I, as many others are not going to discuss someone elses team if they, too, have not contributed to the pool of wild speculation

I don't mind the structure, but I must ask; do you like to live dangerously?
Birchill, Grimes, Hurn, Pav, Bock, Sandilands, Morabito all have great upside but the wheels could fall off. I made a comment on the recent past pages about rookies, too, if you want such an opinion.

pretty good team though, abit different to the rest here

C'mon fellas, we're all friends here.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

Thanks mate, I'm sure it'll be unrecognisable in three weeks, hahah. Good tips. What do you reckon about having Daniher, Carlisle and Chappy in the same side? I'm pretty keen on all of them individually, but the chances of all three of them getting off the leash in the same forward line with any regularity is probably slim...

Given they play different roles I don't think it'll be an issue. That being said, I doubt Chappy will play more than 16 games this season, and I'm worried about Daniher as a young KPF being able to score consistently. Preseason will tell, and he could very well score extra points as a pinch-hitting forward ruckman. Is Carlisle typically a heavy scorer?

I
I think youll find the very good fantasy players will never post their teams and nor will they give out any recommended advice so most of the stuff that gets posted is to be taken with a grain of salt. A lot of the teams that have been posted in this forum are pretty ordinary to say the least

I think this is the greatest load of sh1t i have ever read, but dont take it personally as it just my opinion at this stage

as someone who has been posting on this board for 3-4 years now and watching it grow, both asking for advice and offering advice I actually think your comment lacks any substance at all. When tongue in cheek stuff is being BANTERED around it is openly noted as such and treated accordingly, however people offer genuine opinions on players and their worth. It is an opinion based forum. I would consider myself a pretty good fantasy player (5 consecutive years of top 1000 finishes) and my advice as like most of the other regulars on here is my and there genuine opinions.
The true skill in the game IMO is not your starting line up, but the trades you make, when you make them and the risk analysis you perform on each and every decision.

Rant over!

Version 3.0

Thoughts?

Taking the risk of NOT having JMartin in my team, Thought it my be a good POD by leaving him out and adding an extra prem mid in Watson.

It was either McVeigh, JMartin & Lamb or Suckling, Jobeth & Billings.

Decided to choose the latter on the fact that the latter has way more upside as far as points go.

Considering Hansen, Libba & NicNat as the PODs. Cant go to crazy on them too early.

Rookies will be reviewed after NAB games of course.

But apparently Robertson, Michie Dunston, Billings, Garlett and Broomhead have been impressing so far.

Swap MMurphy for Daisy and use the extra 150K to upgrade a defender would be my advice, not sure maybe Docherty to Swallow or Hurn or Grimes

 

[CJApples87]

In my opinion, I'm not sure Docherty could be considered just yet. I think there are better options (like the one noted above) if you wanted to still go something slightly different from the norm. I think Swallow is ready to breakout properly this year.

 

[Stickers32]

Went with Daisy for Murphy and Grimes for Docherty only cos swallow is a R8

Ive made the top 100 in the past and im posting on here, and i can guarantee every advice ive given has been to help people out that want to use it. so that crap about not giving out recommended advice is just utter rubbish.
Id bet you'd lose to half of us on this forum.

You listened to the Jay Clarke podcast on Jock Reynolds, didn't you?

No offence mate, but that is the weakest SC forward line I think I've ever seen.

well NSW CROW some real POD's in there

 

[Kadog]

Too many $$$$ spent on 2 defenders who wont make anymore money and will be borderline top 8 defenders (think Birchall will achieve the same average as both SDT and Hanley and is 20 -25K cheaper)
Daisy at D5 - what do you think he will average? if less than 100 I'd drop to JMart or Billings and save the 140K
Spend the 140K on upgrading HMac
Taylor has had foot surgery and apparently wont get a gig till much later (read somewhere on BF)
other than those upgrades it looks to be a safe stock std guns n roses (rookie) approach

Toxic, as always I value your comments. Most teams have that vanilla taste at this stage, but like you said, it's not how you start but how you trade that separates the cream.
Guys like Hanley & SThompson (possible POD), I believe both to be top 8 defenders and they're keepers in my eyes. If they perform like I think, their value will look after themselves.
Birchall is intriguing. All indicators are that he's a top performer but he burned me badly last year and I'm apprehensive about having him in my starting 22. Definitely on my watch list.
Daisy is great value @ M5. IF healthy I believe will avg 95-105, make coin and upgrade to super premo.
I've stated that at this stage, I want to avoid expensive rookies like jmart, Aish, Billings and co. They have to avg high scores to make coin so unless they blow me away in the nab as must have inclusions, ill reserve judgement. I have another squad I'm happy to roll with that includes all those players if that's the case.
Cheers for the heads up on Taylor, didn't know
Rucks are a concern I agree. My thinking was that I'd trade zorko (F5) and upgrade injured ruck to a prem if needed...or, downgrade Sam Shaw now to rookie x and go HMac>Lobbe.

Eagerly awaiting nab to assess. I'm sure my team will keep evolving. Just kick the damn ball already!

Btw, ill be missing our first hit out tmro night pies v cats due to work. Let me know how our young guns go. Cheers.

 

[Kadog]

I really like the Sam Shaw pick - it'll be interesting to see how he fits in the crows structure; he's an interesting trade-off between upgrading an "underpriced" premo to a gun. He also gives you surplus funds for a more expensive rookie

your cost/line structure is abit forward-heavy. Perhaps there's something there to downgrade someone to upgrade a ruck/daisy/etc

I hate talking about rookies; it's all abit tedious - as long as you have enough money to select starting rookies, it'll resolve itself in the coming month. At the minute I like the rookie swing set, it's all speculation until NAB Cup and realistically round 1-3 - as to wether it's viable in terms of emergency cover. However, this year I've tended to think that cash generation is more important than swing sets in the early rounds, given how expensive rookies are. As cash generation is more important this year, I think it's more important to select the rookies who will generate the most cash quickly, as opposed to ones which will give you most cover. (especially in the mids)

Appreciate your time to comment at length. I agree commenting on rookies at this stage is pointless and just pure speculation. NAB will iron all that soon enough. I hope to be talking about names that haven't been discussed to throw into the mix.

"your cost/line structure is abit forward-heavy. Perhaps there's something there to downgrade someone to upgrade a ruck/daisy/etc"

I've gone forward heavy for two reasons. Im not sure there are many fwd rookies to count on so im more comfortable having a strong premo based fwd line & worry about 1 rookie selection between 3 players...and it gives me flex to have a strong M6 if reqd.

As mentioned in previous post, I could upgrade HMac>Lobbe to strengthen rucks.

 

[Beachsleeper]

My first proper shot at a team. A little light on premiums in the mids, but covered heavily elsewhere. Rookies will change, naturally.
