The Nailers 2.0 Too strong Mids?

Nails · January 13, 2011, 09:42:21 AM

Sorry to make another thread but my team has changed significantly... I wanted a gun midfield whilst still getting the best mid cash cows...
The only thing that might be weak is my forward line as a result but I still have Chris Knights who I think is a must have, Dion Prestia who will start on a lot of teams and then B. Matera to start... they should be good rookies/ex-injured players and not weaken the team too much...

TEAM NAME: The Nailers
DEF: B. Goddard (C), B. Gibbs(C), B. Deledio(C), J. Adcock, P. Duffield, A. Otten, M. Hibberd (B. Retzlaff (F), C. Richardson, J. Toy)

RUC: D. Cox, D. Petrie (Z. Smith, M. Daw)
FWD: A. Didak(C), C. Sylvia(C), N. Riewoldt, J. Brown, C. Knights, D. Prestia, B. Matera (J. Darling, A. Hooper, D. Talia(B))
CASH LEFT: $12,900

i'd move chappy forward, one less starting forward and one more starting mid.

Yeah I was thinking that after I posted... not sure who to drop in forwards and who to bring in in the mids...

Looking at going Chapman > Gaff but then can't get Chapman back in the forwards... hmm...

for me its brown, interupted preseason i am looking at upgrade target after first bye if all is going well

Brown = the one player I have to have every single year as a Lions man...

If I'm going to down Chappy from the mids and into the fwds it's really got to be to upgrade a rookie, not to just trade a prem..

Something like...
Chapman > Gaff, Heppell > Xavier Clarke

Talia > Budwood...

I'd like Heppell in the side but I'd probably prefer Clarke and Budwood than Heppell/someone not as good.

8/10, missing links

Defence- Similar to mine, Good one for having Duffield over Broughton
Midfield- Could be risky without Swannie, very Strong starting mids
Ruck- Could use Jolly in there, and I'd reccomend having Tom McDonald up forward for the MPP value of Petrie.
Forwards- I'd prefer Buddy to Slyvia, apart from that a few good picks.
