I know it is very early on in the season but i'm keen to hear what people are hoping their finalised team looks like. Injuries will change this throughout the year.

Hodge
Goddard
Fisher
Cornes
Houlihan
Raines -> Mackie/Scotland(?)
Hill -> Carrazzo

Ablett
Swan
Kornes
Gibbs
Rich -> Bartel
Beams -> Corey

Cox
Mcintosh

Pavlich
Stevey J
N.G. Brown
Higgins
Krakouer -> GUN(?) Possibly Gia/Didak/Richo
Skipworth -> GUN(?) Possibly Gia/Didak/Richo
Ziebell -> Riewoldt

No point in listing my bench as about 7 of them will be gone from my team. 20 trades left to do that!
 
players in brackets are currently in my team

Hodge
Chornes
Fisher
Goddard
Scotland/Carrazzo (Hill)
Enright (Dempsey)
Ellis (Raines)

Swan
Bartel (Rich)
Ablett/Corey/Kornes (Hasleby)
Gibbs
McLean
Selwood

Cox
Hille

Riewoldt (Houlihan)
Pavlich (Skipworth)
Franklin (Higgins)
Harvey/Richo/SJ (Ziebell)
Deledio
Didak
NG Brown

Walker, Brown, Beams, Broughton, Petrenko and Anthony when he comes back hopefully facilitate these trades. There's no chance my team will end up like this though :eek:
 
lol DT Fanatic that team would score over 3000 every week :p
Its way to early to predict your final team, I think that its really important that you keep an open mind all year as to what you are going to do 'next'

Its obviously too early to be doing this sort of thing, but I have got a rough plan laid out. Final team will hopefully look like this:

Hodge (Houlihan)
Fisher (Cheney)
Goddard
Cornes
Bock
Waite
Ellis

Bartel (Rich)
Swan (Mackay)
Thompson/Corey/Kornes (Otten)
Ablett
Gibbs
Dalziell

Cox
Kruezer

Riewoldt (Walker)
Buddy (Krak)
Richo (Skippy)
Deledio
Giansiracusa
SJ
Higgins

Thats the plan. Due to some bad luck early with my backline ill need to keep Higgins (and possibly Houlihan), but the rest of the team is strong enough to make up for it.
 
Pointless doing this in RD 3 but it's nice to dream.

Goddard
Fisher
Cornes
Adcock
Mundy
Houlihan
Hodge (Raines)

Ablett
Kornes
Selwood
Gibbs
Bartel (Skipworth)
Corey (Rich)

Cox
Simmonds

Deledio
Thomas
Franklin (Lucas)
Riewoldt (Krak)
Pavlich (Ziebell)
Richo (Higgins/Cloke)
Higgins/Cloke
 
Really? I find it a lot easier to make good trades throughout the season if you have an end goal in mind.

My only goal throughout the season is to beat my previous rounds score, keep raising the bar haha. Probably why I'm not doing to well at the moment. But yeah, if I have a final team planned for around round 18 etc, I would get annoyed watching as injuries/suspension/bad form influence my plans and where I planned to upgrade Higgins to Riewoldt in round 14, two long-term injuries in round 13 force me to trade to avoid a doughnut etc.

I am only ranked around 7,000 so take that onboard like you would when dipping your balls into a hot bath, carefully.

sorry i dont think u can say what team u want

say i want to upgrade so and so to a gun but too many variables
 
Alot of the teams are looking good. I'd like to know how many upgrades people believe they can do...
I set myself at 7 downgrades and 7 upgrades with 6 for injury.
Most people are looking to upgrade atleast 8 players on here.
I guess it comes down to injury and luck :p

Just happened to do this out on paper tonight:

Chad
Goddard
Fisher
Hodge
Houlihan
Mackie/Scotland etc (Geary/Suban)
Mackie/Scotland etc (Raines/Petrenko)

GAblett (Haselby/Robinson)
JimmyB (Rich/Beams)
Selwood
Dalziell
Gibbs
Boomer (should be a keeper)

Cox
McIntosh

Pavlich
Deledio
Franklin
Higgins
Skipworth (maybe a keeper but probably > Riewoldt)
Richo/Chappy/Gia/Didak (Krakouer/Walker)
Richo/Chappy/Gia/Didak (Ziebell/Brown)

Looking at 6 down, 6 up. Maybe 7 and 7.
Have used 1 thus far so 5 left for LTI/Finals.
Aim to do these trades rounds 8 to 13 (and 14 if 7/7 req'd).

I think it's very important to have a plan so you don't lose track of trades, trade at the wrong time etc.
Obviously events may happen that mean you can't stick to it exactly.

Thats 8 players im bring in meaning probably about 13 or 14 trades, meaning about 6 for LTI's.

Will also consider trading Mac and Adcock out if anything arises. Cox would be the only option for Hmac and Adcock or Houlihan which ever one survives the longest will probably become a 7th keeper. I dont see much to trade upto that will increase my points on a weekly basis.
 
Current List (End of Season List)

Chornes (Chornes)
Hodge (Hodge)
Enright (Enright)
Goddard (Goddard)
Lockyer (Lockyer)
Houlihan (Houlihan) unless his scoring drops off dramatically

Current Bench:

Ablett (Ablett)
Gibbs (Gibbs)
Selwood (Selwood)
Tuck--------->(Bartel) unless Tuck starts scoring really well
Rich---------->(Swan)
Robinson----->(Corey)
-------------------------
Cuurent Bench:
Otten

Cox (Cox)
Kreuzer------>(Hille) unless Kreuzer keeps scores pretty high
-------------------------
Current Bench:

Harvey (Harvey)
Deledio (Deledio)
Skipworth--->(Franklin)
Higgins------>(Richo)
Garlett--->(Riewoldt)
-------------------------
Current Bench:
Hentschel
Mitchell Brown

That's 8 upgrades I want to make, they might not all be necessary if some of my mid-priced players keep scoring well. Hopefully I won't have to make 2 trades for every upgrade.

I think I'm reasonably confident I can get close to this team by the end of the year.:)

which one of your teams is this plan for
 
I'm struggling with the concept of a finalised team.

Simple enough to factor in which players you need to upgrade, estimates for how much cash your bench players will make, how much you may need to upgrade your on field upgrades, how many trades you will need to use to get a squad assembled and how many you will keep for LTIs. That's the easy part.

The difficult part is you have no idea which players will be value when you are ready to pull the trigger. If you are ready to upgrade in Rd 8 to a premium forward and SJ is 280K while Buddy is 470K you simply take SJ at the value. So to pick which players will finish in your team is basically impossible unless you are willing to pay well over the odds.
 
I work from a pool of players when upgrading. For instance when it comes time to upgrade my mids I want Bartel, Swan and Kornes/Thompson to come in - whichever one is cheapest at the time will be brought in, the others can wait till next upgrade.
 
At this stage:
Backs
Goddard
Chornes
Bock
Adcock
Houlihan
Raines -> Hodge
Petrenko -> Mackie

Centres:
Ablett
Dalziell
Gibbs
Haselby -> Possible late season upgrade but only if I have a lot of luck with injuries to the point I can feel confident using up a trade
Tuck -> Bartel
Butler -> Cooney

Rucks:
Cox
Ottens

Forwards:
Deledio
Pavlich
Gia
Higgins -> J. Brown
Skipworth -> Harvey
Krakouer -> Franklin
Ziebell -> Riewoldt

Also planning to have Hayden Ballantyne and Liam Anthony on my bench unless nobody's close to peaking at the time they start getting games.
 
Lockyer, cornes, Goddard, Hodge, Rance, Surjan, S Hill (Suban, Raines)

Ablett, Judd, Cross, Rich, R Shaw, Haselby (Robinson, Beams)

Jolly, Hille (Currie, Spencer)

N Brown, Gianciracusa, Higgins, Fevola, Pavlich, Ziebell, T Walker (Garlett, Ballantyne)

Bolded i will upgrade not sure who to yet. Hopefully some off my bench Thoughts ??????
 
I set myself at 7 downgrades and 7 upgrades with 6 for injury.
:p

:eek::eek::eek::eek:

6 for injury? Is this about right? I am going to be screwed then.

Surely this includes people only out for 1-3 weeks? Is the option of riding these injurys out there or is 6 a rough estimate of your keepers that will be out for the season (thats around half :eek:).

I need 8 upgrades and that includes either houlihan or higgins as a keeper.
 
C.Cornes
Lockyer
Fisher
Adcock
Stevens
Hodge (Taylor)
Goddard (Geary)

Ablett
Gibbs
Dalziell
Selwood
Bartel (Skipworth)
Swan (Rich)

Cox
Petrie (Kruezer)

Franklin
NG Brown
Harvey (Westhoff)
Riewoldt (Higgins)
S.Johnson (Houlihan)
Giansiracusa (Hentschel)
Richardson (Thomas)

Willing to be very flexible, because trading in 10 premiums will require a couple of direct trades. Hoping Harvey can come down another 60k over 2 weeks allowing me to directly trade Westhoff for him. So yeah i know which players id like to get in but will snap up whichever guns fall greatest in price.

Think I need to make 4 direct trades if i want to pull this off. If not then Higgins, Houlihan and Thomas will stay as keepers.
