This thread can be used to discuss the players you are watching and rooks you have your eyes on from the NAB cup matches.
Jed Anderson looking good
Karnezis killing it too, hopefully it's not a repeat of 2013! Langford has just picked up from where he finished last year also and I really am thinking about him as a selection, think he could average 95-100
Not that I think you could pick him but interested to see Big Boys scores from tonight,he played very well.
Jordan De Goey hype train.
Train now departing, stand clear please.
Great game.
Our kids did real well and if a couple get to make the squad i'd go karnezis and de goey if he gets more time in the guts.
Even though the 2 of karnezis' goals he wouldnt get in afl coz that would have been cloak up there in the sqaure not him.
Freeman has shocking disposal and just stands around waiting for the pill. Saw him during the intra club and took him out of my team.
Gault is still rookie listed and shouldnt be. The kid dominates Witts and is crazy mobile.
Jed Anderson has been a lock for a ages, just want me make sure he makes the hawks 22.

haha yeah i saw all those DE's before thinking wtf, he missed his target about 6 times of his 11 possies tonight. makes no sense.
Kids did play well but against a second rate Hawthorn team, while we were only a few players off full strength.
Don't know if Anderson will play, and if so his role will be clearly defined to a sub role in my eyes, Hawks had Hodge, Gibson, Birchall, Burgoyne, Lewis, Rioli, Roughead, Suckling, Hill, Smith, Lake and a few others out, so I doubt this performance will do much for his security within the Hawks best 22.
Would also really love Gault in the team but at the expense of Grundy, I would much rather Witts over him at this stage.
What about Fasolo also, kicking 4 goals??
I thought Ben Kennedy played well.
Not sure he is best 22 tho.
I know its still pre season but he did show a lot in that practice match. How many games do you see hawks giving him this year?

I thought his disposal was ok, but it's hard to say from low pressure NAB games. I agree with you on the standing around. He didn't seem to show much run, which I look for in young players because coaches love it and it helps the JS.
Jed looked like a star out there, but the midfield is packed.

Obviously Pies had our best out too man. Was just a rookies battle tonight :)
What i've seen Gault do in the intra club, last years round 23 and tonight i have not seen Witts do. Witts is too 'gumpy' and not mobile enough. I really like the Gault-Grundy combo.
ben Kennedy had 23 possies and afew goals in the Intra Club too mate, i had a close eye on him as his disposal and speed have really picked up, and even thought about having him as my F4 for a break out season, but pointless with all the forward options this year.
If freeman's D/E was 90 than from his 11. Should of scored roughly 60-70. I would leave him on the bench if he gets games
Yeah interesting too see how Anderson goes getting in.
Kyle Cheney, Mitch Hallahan, Luke Lowden, Brad Sewell all gone, hoping he gets Hallahan/Sewells spot
- but as you said, could be Vest worthy at best. Very talented lad!
Full time #NABChallenge Mitchell 124, Duryea 117, Gault 110, Anderson 109, Karnezis 96, Fasolo 94, Langdon 92 and Greenwood 85. #SuperCoach
Reckon Anderson can definitely crack the Hawks midfield. Clarko will be happy to take the load off of Mitchell, Hodge, Burgoyne as much as he can to keep their body's fresh over 23 weeks before the finals.

To be fair, it was his first proper game since August 2013 or something.

Played as a defender on the Hawks small forwards. Provided some rebound when the opportunity was there, didn't see him pushing into the midfield at all.

Spent a fair bit of time on Breust and other small forwards in a shut down role across half back and some (not a lot) on the wing.
Freeman scored all right then

Thanks guys, appreciate it. Heard a little about him being played more on the wing but if he's barely playing there against 25% of Hawthorn then unlikely he will the rest of the season

am trying to get a guage on the effects of the new ruck scoring with hit outs to advantage, but it's doing my head in. Callum Sinclair scores 102SC Hmmmmmm? dunno already. Only early yet I know. But maybe picking rucks that spend more time in the forward line may be the way to go.
Sinclair had a high hitout to advantage ratio which I think helped his score out
I actually thought Lycett played better tonight than Sinclair

With Sinclair at only 247k, having all 3 Eagles in the ruck line is a genuine option I think
Both Lycett and Sinclair have FWD DPP, so in the off chance that all 3 play we could put Cox/Read at F8 and loophole in the forward line too
Hmmmmm

And there was no love for this idea when I mooted it :P Just remember you heard it here first

Not caring about the result man. More about the players and rookies.
Murphy, Judd, Gibbs, Kreuzer, Walker, Henderson, Carrazzo, Thomas and others all didn't play?
More than a third of their best 22 hahaha, that is an abundance of class to come back in my opinion.

For 332k he is a genuine mid price option
He has the ceiling too. Has put up some big tons in his career, but it's whether he can become a consistent scorer in a new role that will be pivotal

152 SC points today from 25 disposals for Geary.
Savage had 20 touches at 80% efficiency off half back. 102 SC
Rich 97 SC. Played a lot across half back. Had more rebound 50's than any other Lion.
I would put a pen through Membrey. Was pretty ordinary. Could well be picked for round one but he didn't do enough IMO.

Hmmm some really good signs out of the Bris/STK game
Geary as a mid pricer - let's see how he goes over the next 2 matches
Adcock tonned up, and besides last year his previous years saw averages around 90
Fisher, well I've been on him since last year, but I guess more will follow now :(
Newnes looking like a breakout contender
Leuey doesn't look like a good option, especially considering Martin didn't even play (Martin looks absolutely ripped and will clearly be the number 1 ruck)
Lonie scored well considering he started as sub
Savage and Rich should interest people too, but not me personally

Yep, yep and yep!
Squeezing Geary in somehow could be a great option if a Zak Jones type doesn't pop up.
Happy with that return from Fisher, hopefully it continues. Hoping others will continue to be scared off though.
I really wanna pick Lonie and he's given a good reason to do so.

Quote from: RaisyDaisy on February 28, 2015, 08:51:37 PM
Hmmm some really good signs out of the Bris/STK game
Geary as a mid pricer - let's see how he goes over the next 2 matches
Adcock tonned up, and besides last year his previous years saw averages around 90
Fisher, well I've been on him since last year, but I guess more will follow now :(
Newnes looking like a breakout contender
Leuey doesn't look like a good option, especially considering Martin didn't even play (Martin looks absolutely ripped and will clearly be the number 1 ruck)
Lonie scored well considering he started as sub
Savage and Rich should interest people too, but not me personally
Geary always does well in preseason, but has never delivered in the real season. Is a risky pick, but then so are Yeo, Seedsman, Ibbotson.
Ive been on Adcock for a while as a potentially good option, but im still not convinced. I want to see more and track his TOG over the preseason.
With Fisher, Newnes, Geary and Goodard all in the backline. Can you pick more than 2?
Leuy was never in my team, too injury prone, no idea how he will go with the new rules and Martin playing.
Lonie is still unlikely to play, but if for some reason he does he is a massive chance to be sub or get dropped after 2-3 matches.
No to Savage for me, Rich is an option, but really unlikely for me to pick.
Confirmed ACL for Libba. :-\

Hey guys, Loving the look of adam saad and perhaps zac smith at r2 instead of leunberger. Great game from geary and rich showed enough so i have managed to squeeze them in at m5 and d5 respectively. Thoughts?

Both sound calls after their respective games... but don't forget, just one game so far. Keep tracking their progress, they are the right price for the performances they've given so far.

True mate but those that were replaced were leunberger and whitecross. Both very iffy and not keepers.
Saad has been impressive but still needs to get elevated and has competition for spots with a few first choice guys out.
What Stars, Rookies etc have you reconsidered after there NAB cup game so far..
Had Garlett in my side, took him out yesterday and today ive put him back in...lol
And I think ill start with M.Clark also after today, may av 60-70...enough to generate $$$ before upgrade
Anderson
Karneziz
Brown
Cripps
Lambert
Ellis-Yolmen
Lang
Cockatoo
Clark
Garlett
I see all of them lining up for there clubs round 1 and think they will all score nicely also.
Full time #NABChallenge Bartel 149, Smith 128, Sexton 112, Hallahan 104, Bennell 88, Lang 83, Miller 71 and Malceski 42. #SuperCoach
Full time #NABChallenge Betts 164, Higgins 136, Daw 131 B Crouch 127, Lyons 96, Kerridge 79, van Berlo 59 and Hendeson 31 (red). #SuperCoach

Some big big scores there
Hallahan was dominant in the first half just efficiency is the issue ... Might stick with my m5 for now
Smith go put in for Mumford and upgraded jack Martin back to buddy
As for the rookies
Degoey vanberlo cockatoo Garlett Anderson miller are my current rookie mids
Salem Clark hogan karnezis lambert the forward mids
Overall I think we got a bit out of the nab matches so far
I'm not getting sucked into Garlett just yet
Looked good, but only had 7 touches so I expect him to score like most rookie small forwards. Might pump out a 80+ on a good day but plenty of sub 50 scores

Bartel and Kelly interest me from yesterday.
Why did the cats bother playing them yesterday and both played the majority of the game in the mids.
Both now a bit further up the chain in terms of my watchlist.
Harry Taylor still in my defence.
Darcy Lang, Touk Miller and Adam Saad (needs to be promoted) the better performed of the rookies. Sexton a bit more $ but also looks likely for round one.
Cockatoo did some good things as well but needs to do a bit more for me to consider taking him over Darcy Lang for an SC spot.
Zac Smith should be on everybody's radar. Nicholls didn't play but surely Smith is the number one ruck. One of the 2 will go big this year.
Bennell was OK, but still got 88 SC. What does a good game get him?

Scott looking to play both Kelly and Bartel through the midfield this year, has said they were under-utilised last year. I think Geelongs younger midfielders haven't had the impact they were hoping for in the last year or two and are looking to get the 'big guns' back in the engine room.
Lang looks good, I'm expecting him to get games, they rate him very highly. Was expected to go higher in his draft year but broke his leg so slipped through.
Bennell is definitely on my watch list, been in a number of my sides. Apparently after the game he was seen icing his ankle and calf, don't know what that means in terms of his fitness though.....
Couple of notes from Adelaide v Nth Melbourne
B.Crouch only played up to 3/4 time. Make of that what you will
Van Berlo looked pretty rusty. Hopefully he gets that improvement with game time but to me needs to show a bit more to splash 200 odd for him.
MacMillan very good- leadership role, good JS and is cheap. an 80 average would be a worthy investment.
Some will consider Higgins. Be careful with his score, he did kick 4 goals which has inflated his score.
No real breakout rookie performances. Ellis-Yeoman was solid, does he fit in best 22? Need to see more from Dumont but showed some signs. Keeping an eye both of them.
Henderson needs a couple more hitouts.

That's why Bartel and Kelly played, to get decent midfield time before round one. Will help with Stevie J and Selwood in the engine room come round one.
I would expect Lang to be in the side round one. Showed his talent and with a full pre-season under the belt should be ready to produce decent performances and cement a spot in the cats best 22. Stephen Wells doesn't get these picks wrong does he?
Well Callum Sinclair injury solidifies lycett as second ruck at west Coast ... Could allow for say a Tom lamb a game to play up forward for the Eagles now given the reshuffle that will be needed given the Mckenzie and darling injuries
Well shower
Lamb could line up now.
McInnes rucked and played down forward a bit in the Indigenous match so he could be an option

It's obvious that all their rookies are a chance because of the ASADA Saga, and he is a rookie hence he is a chance. Being impressed is just a bonus, but most coaches always say their rookies are impressing them anyway so it doesn't mean much :)

Personally he will only play early is if ASADA plays out and they are suspended. He needs to fill out more and gain more strength before getting regular games, presuming we have a full complement to select from.

Gleeson was in R1 and he could hide behind a goal post.
Salem, Newton, Hogan, Vandenberg and Stretch named in the squad to face Freo.
No Brayshaw though and I'll say it again, he will not play round 1 so now is the time to take him out of your sides.

It wasn't too heavy a knock but in saying that, it was from the human wrecking ball in Jack Viney.
The head knock he sustained a couple of weeks ago has nothing to do with him not being named against Freo though.

They drafted him as a slightly longer-term tall midfield prospect who can take a mark forward, like a Fyfe or a Bontempelli.

I think he may have had another minor head knock but he trained fully today and took part in the match simulation.
He hasn't been named against Freo because he is not in the frame for a round 1 debut.
We'll see him at some stage this year though I'm sure.

He didn't play in our practice match the other week but it's good to see that he has been named to play in the squad to play Freo as he has been training strongly.
If he is named in the final side to play Freo and he plays well in that game and the other NAB matches then it will give him a good chance to be upgraded to the senior list and possibly play round 1.
Looking forward to this game. It will give us a good insight into quite a few rookies and mid pricers. Here is my list:
Walters
C Pearce
Barlow
Hogan
Salem
Lumumba
Newton
Vandenberg
Garlett
Stretch

Hogan...... lock him in
Salem...... useless still chuck him out
Lumumba...OK pass mark...maybe back in peoples calculations
Newton....... good but subbed at half time?
Vandenberg....green vested on at half time then good
Garlett..........nothing in 1st half, done something in the 2nd
Stretch........DNP
watch the critics come flying, but thats how I saw it.
Largely agree ... Would like another look at salem however
Lumumba at his price didn't convince me just yet
yeah love the look of Vandeberg
Sgt. Supercoach â€@SgtSupercoach 1m1 minute ago
Interesting #supercoach scores from that game. Vandenberg with the 69 in a half of footy and Newton with 59 who got subbed off at half time.
Don't give up on my man Salem just yet :'(
VandenBerg and Hogan are locks ATM.

Had Vandenberg and Hogan in my side before the game started. They won't be going anywhere.
Found room to squeeze in the very impressive Newton by taking the not so impressive Salem out.
Lumumba was good and has to be considered.
C Pearce was good but I think MacMillan appears to be a better option at around the same price. I think they will score similarly but Pearce is on the fringe of Freo's best 22 while MacMillan is firmly in the Roo's best 22.
I'm ben_020285 and that's my take.
A lot of good reports about Newton, but I didn't see the game. The AFL has him listed as 51 AFL fantasy (seems similar), but with 86% TOG and 53.8% disposal efficiency. Those are terrible stats, so I'd just like to double check with someone who watched the match that he didn't come back on later or something?

Yeah the TOG stat is definitely wrong. He left the field late in the 2nd quarter after receiving a knock to the head and was then subbed and didn't come back on. The disposal efficiency stat is correct though. He scored 55 SC in less than half a game and looked very impressive. I'm almost certain he will play round 1 unless he is woeful in one or both of the Dees next NAB games.

Yeh man in the middle of the season. Suffered from his back towards the end of the season and then had off season surgery on it
He needs to be watched a bit more but will be a good POD if he stays on the park. His D/E is aleays good. He's a SC player not a DT

Posted in another thread but these are just my thoughts on Clancee mate
I would have him in my 22 every day of the week. He has an elite kick and is a natural ball magnet.
Reality is that is more like 18-25 in our side. Meaning he could be in and out, or cop vests.
When he scored premo numbers a few years ago, he had the freedom through the midfield to do so.
Now, his role does can weekly and does get a few lock down jobs
Yesterday he was impressive but Fyfe, Ibbotson, DPearce and Crowley have to come back into that side, which will reshuffle quite a few boys.
Ross has said Ibbo and Fyfe should play next week, I would also assume DPearce would come back in. So keep an eye on Clancee next week and see what his role is
One thing he has got going for him atm is that Ross loves a good story and rewards boys that put the extra effort in. Clancee has already done that a few years ago (after being sent back to the wafl). last year he dropped the ball a bit in terms of his fitness again (had quite a few off field issues personally) but he came back to preseason a lot fitter after doing a lot of work away from the club. So should be back in favour
Certainly deserves to be on the watchlist, but will need to see more of him in our stronger lineup
Cheers Rico, summed it up perfectly mate. He fits well and his price is ideal for me and the team i have at the minute. There is a couple of other options around that price. Even if he is best 22 Ross can still flower up with his role as you stated so will be watching pretty close. ;)
Heeney has been playing well tonight :)
Well anyone else like myself thinking about having Luey at R2 might have to rethink that don't know what TOG he had but he hardly touched it :(
Bellcho is cheaper and Nankervis might be a cheap ruck option for cover if Tippett has a setback early in the season

Jetta and Rohan keep getting talked up as the two, but in all honesty I wouldn't be surprised if no one replaces him, and they instead have several players sharing and rotating through that position
Jetta and Rohan with McVeigh makes the most sense to me

My bad. I just threw it in there coz you said you had Belly in the forwards.
All the mid priced rucks are proving to be duds. Kreuzer injured. Leuey sucks. Belly is a spud.
Set and forget.
But since you have him in the fwd line I'd rather have JMart
I thought Hanners would have scored more then 78 but he did have quite a few clangers in the 2nd half which might have resulted in his score

Quote from: Mat0369 on March 06, 2015, 09:27:00 PM
QuoteTom Mitchell - Gun. The Swans are all about team balance so it will be interesting to see if he plays and if so where. In the guts he could easily push for a 100 average, in the NEAFL, well....The other problem with Tom is his body, he has never been healthy for a full season and at 400k I don't know if it is a risk worth taking
Quietly got a fair bit of the ball in the first 3 quarters. He didn't stand out but he got his touches. He spent a lot of time through the middle and he did use the ball by hand more often then not. I will keep my eye on him in the next couple if I want to save some cash and downgrade Swan.
In terms of TOG% it is difficult to gauge because players have been taking extended breaks on the bench. The AFL website has him at 74% TOG but they were wrong with Newton a couple of nights ago.
Yep can not trust TOG % listed. Tom Cutler came on in 3rd quarter was a sub and his time on ground is listed as 96%. Probably was on 96% of the time from when he came on so it appears both green and red vested sub TOG are distorted.

Crappy bye for Steven though which is a killer. Joey is the other at under 500k that is priced at 89 but can average 105
Just traded ward to griffen, and Tom Mitchell to Dahlhaus, fwd line looks stronger now
I am not bringing Griffen in based on 1 NAB match
I sat here and look at the factors as to why Griffen might be scoring well and they are good enough reasons for me to wait until I see more.

GC v. GWS was the first game I watched so far :-[
But it reaffirmed that a healthy Ryan Griffen is a top 5 mid IMO (obviously not fantasy related) and I reckon Adam Saad will have a decent career at AFL level and that GWS are going to be ridiculous! We know all about their mids but the likes of Bugg, Haynes and Hampton coming out of that back half really impressed me.... I finally got my fix, now for the Power!!
After today and all the hype on Robbie Gray, He should now be a lock in every team.

He's in my team
I've read how he has stepped it up again over the pre-season, and then he has a lazy 30 and 3 goals today
He might be expensive, but he is a pure mid who can kick goals. I just wish he was more of a POD, but I'm starting him

He's damn tempting, will probably buy in if a cheap defensive rookie pops up.

He wouldn't be the worst pick, Birch played every game and Suckling played 21 so its not like he only went large when the other re-bounders were out.
He's probably not going to hit 160 but I can't see why he can't average in the 90's again. If Frawley and Lake stay on the park he would be free to be third man up and intercept mark as much as he wants.
Krak 42. How much TOG did he get after coming on?
Gee wines scored well... Felt like he had a real quiet game and still got 97

Teams have to man Gibbo up. He is too dangerous to leave him to do what he wants. But he did average 92.5 last year playing a on the second forward. If he plays the quarterback, loose role then I would think his chances of at least maintaining that average
are very good.
$497k for him though is the negative but only in 2.48% of teams.

Agree AK, on my watchlist as well. Especially when Birch comes back too, clubs will defensively tag him first
Really wish I had enough for Gray/Bartel in my forward line :'(
But rookies and mid premiums always come first for me!
yeah liking Bartel now also...may go Dusty to Bartel..
And im sure Mitch C has now been put in every team after his performance so far..

He has dodgy JS has worn the vest countless times.
Article about him needing to prove he deserves a spot in the team.
If he sucks badly in Round 1 if named then he is likely to be dropped.
Clark finished with 17 disposals (100% eff.), 4 contested marks, 6.0 and 166 #SuperCoach points. Bartel (124) and Dangerfield (122) solid.
Welcome to my team Jimmy Bartel.
Was high on the watchlist after the Suns NAB game, now he is in my team.
I know its only NAB but that is two weeks running Bartel has topped 120 SC points.

If I was a betting man I'd be throwing that on N Jones
Tbh that's probably why I'm not a betting man
This is why i selected bartel for the people who asked why i had him in my team. To bad his % will go up

With the news that Deledio will be managed and spend a lot of time up forward due to his achilles issue all year, Bartel has made his way into my team.

Yep it will be tough to get a spot, but if I recall he was an emergency a fair bit last year too. Have to think that eventually he gets given an opportunity

Yeah, I'm never 100% sold on these last quarter sub scores. Having such fresh legs when everyone else would be fatiguing, I'd be pretty concerned if an average player didn't score better than normal.

And tonight he's playing against a second tier side. I still only count 7 best 22 players there, and his opponent in Freezer certainly isn't one of them.
Anyone like this kid? He has plenty of flair and seems to be able to find the footy, $210k is an awkward price but watching him tonight I reckon hes def on my radar. I was really annoyed Swans didnt pick him in the draft but GWS look to have pounced on a ripper.

Only for a maximum of 2 weeks, if the leaks from the AFL to journalists are correct. 2 games we would have lost anyways.

He looked lively early but I stopped paying attention quickly. Defensive rookies are likely to come down to who is actually named round 1. Someone like Edwards could be a massive tease if the Dons are actually sanctioned. He could play 2 games, be average and then get dropped before he makes any cash if two week suspensions are legit
Mummy with 99 SC points for a half of football not bad, Opposition though not much. Would be a lock without injury worries. Has not played a full season at all in his career, Maybe worth a risk though if you can get cover. With Phillips or Downie as the back ups they could occupy R3 depending who is named.

Throw in Rory Lobb, and who actually is his backup? :/
Mummy has said that this has been his best pre-season. Hasn't missed a beat and will clearly monster out scores

That was the point I was leaning towards. Don't go changing around rookies every week based on 1 NAB game. Obviously keep their performances in mind, but they're all just place holders for now until we see who actually gets named rd1

Never been in contention. Rookies that have featured in my team are ones that I thought have had a chance to play regularly.
TBH not many have changed.
NVB to newton is the main change. Not sold on Andersen either. Might DG Boekhorst if he has another stinker.
Ellis-yolmen is in my watchlist

Don't think anyone is jumping on him man, just taking note of him and if he is named rd1 then he is showing he is probably worth a bench spot
I feel like the Hawks will make room in their team for Anderson. Him and Langford will be the 2 mids to carry this team forward in the future. Can't say the same for someone like Simpkin.

Yarran teases in the pre-season again...
Ibbo did enough to keep some interest.
JPK + Parker + Fyfe as expected.
Cripps is quite interesting indeed.
Jaksch a other good score. Around 200K i think.

Yeah, I think his form is enough to warrant D8.
Is he actually playing a different kind of role for his scores to be up by so much?
I mean it is only NAB cup but it is a fair jump regardless.

Hell if he can score 60's and 90's he can plonk his ass at D6! (I know I know wishful thinking)
If Brown can score consistently around the 50-60s, go up to $250odd k, and then throw in a 90...He'll find himself up over $300k a fortnight later, which would be incredible for a backline rookie with JS.

Ben Reid played in the VFL on the weekend and he'll play in the backline and kill any scoring potential that N. Brown may have mistakenly stumbled upon in meaningless matches.
That's possible, but then Reid will just get injured again shortly after returning anyway, probably while running through the cheer squads banner :P

NAB 3 is how I am going to judge Clancee at least. It should be a relatively full squad and he can score well, it will just depend on his role and my team structure. If there are some cheaper options that bob I will probably go down that route first but I still prefer him to guys like Macmillan

Yep which is what I've said for a while ;) NAB3 is where its at
really hard to say at this stage... a lot of players being rested over first 2 nab cup games. So players are doing better than what they would say if they had the full time mids around them. I reckon this weeks games will give us a clearer indication.
Having said that but, i think Cockatoo looks a shoe in. Lambert should scrape in. Newtons a good chance. Freeman a good chance. The rest but could be close to that 20-25 mark of ranked players for first game so gonna be interesting!

I have just been thinking if the Dons players do get suspended for the first couple of games, is it worth avoiding BJ early? He will have 0 support those first two games and will be the only Essendon player they put time into with Zaha which could result in a few poor scores.

True but I'm thinking if we stuff the forward line with the DPP players (Lambert, Steele & Krakouer) and then bring in guys like Miller & Heeney the prospect of extra $ could be on the cards.

He has trained in that position all summer and has dominated in it for all 3 NAB games - he's in my squad, I just can't leave him out

But of those guys you listed, Krak and Lambert still need to get elevated and in Kraks case even if he does he probably still won't get a game. Heeney has to break into arguably the best midfield in the league and Steele has to compete with the plethora of mids/smalls at GWS which means he is a vest candidate as well. It gives you 15-30k in the initial price to bring in someone that has a chance of starting in green or might not even get games whereas Melbourne need and want to play Hogan every single week

This as well. My mate hates him and is a Dees fan, he went down to a training session and came away from it saying he looks the goods. Roos loves big bodied mids so the fact he has been training there shows that is why they recruited him. A defender that is going to play in the midfield more often then not is worth their weight in gold in SC

He reminds me of Ryan Houlihan that he looks so casual with the ball in hand and tries to take the difficult option rather then the easy one sometimes, but when he is on he is on
Also something else I thought I would bring up, both Saad and Lambert dominated in the VFL last year. When they were doing a top 5 VFL player countdown during finals last year I think they were 2 and 3 (Iles 1?)
Both guys are really talented and should be able to put performances at the lower levels which will demand they get a shot at some point. I think Lemmens has also been injured which has seen Saad attempt to make the spot his own so it will be interesting to see what they do and if they actually can elevate him since Broughton has one spot guaranteed.

I was thinking the same thing originally but Hall and Sumner played a lot of games in that small forward role last season which means he could get games. However I think I forgot that Martin got injured in round 1 last year which probably resulted in this happening

Jaeger I would say highly unlikely to play round one. Would they risk him round 2 based on his pre-season.
I would say if he is right for round 2 he would likely play in the NEAFL - they play St Kilda in Round 2 - a game they should win so no need to rush him in.
And then they play the Cats round 3 in Geelong. The Suns would want him cherry ripe for that game.
Should give Touk a couple of weeks (v Melbourne and St Kilda) to put in decent performances to cement his spot for round 3 and at least get one decent cash rise.
Is this wishful thinking? The kid is talented and I want to see him in the suns side.
He had played well. He at least should get a shot rd 1

If they play and GAJ and O'meara are also named then lock them in! If they play and those two aren't named... well then it get interesting.

Reckon Saad is impacted by GAJ or JOM?
Miller I can see being impacted, but Saad is more a defender isn't he? So shouldn't be impacted as much

Saad depends more on Lemmens then Gaz/O'Meara, he is playing the small defender role that Lemmens played all last season. Miller is going to rely on either of those guys being out. I would rather use the cash elsewhere considering the defenders generally produce the least amount of points

Sacrifice a premo mid for Gray, play Clark at F6 and field Vandenberg, Boekhorst & Ellis-Yolmen. If a forward suddenly emerges I can swing Gray to the mids. I will probably pick Hogan but I'm not keen on fielding him.

If you check his stats over the past couple of years it's the same story, you are paying for job security. Cripps or Newton are far better options.

NVB is officially not touching my team
Don't care about his JS, will roll the dice on rookies
Sure yolmen is a start for RD1
His D/E was horrible to imagine if he cleaned that up a bit
Just quietly how good a player is the Bont going to be!!
Hamling looked alright when he came on for Johanissen. Oxley used the ball allright for Collingwood as well (unsure about JS for either but both played well)
Anyone who is considering Minson would be sleeping a bit easier. He finally put in a decent performance after 2 moderate efforts in NAB 1 and 2.
Bob Murphy isn't getting any younger but it's not stopping him from playing some decent footy. Another potential option in defence.
Minno had 50 hitouts to only score 123 so I would like to see how many were to advantage.

I was skeptical but I have changed my mind. He looks more likely than not to be be in, and if/when he gets upgraded it will be confirmed that he's a starter. We won't upgrade him just for the hell of it.
You have to wonder, they delisted him last year, but then picked him up again. At his age, surely they wouldn't do that just to have him play in the VFL? Perhaps McCartney wasn't a big fan and Beveridge is?

Didnt think much of van berlo and if he is used as tagger again then not willing to commit to him.
Very Disappointed in Swan. Will also have another think about wether to start him or not. If i was a betting man I would say bontempelli will outscore Swan this year

Ben Reid played in the VFL on the weekend and he'll play in the backline and kill any scoring potential that N. Brown may have mistakenly stumbled upon in meaningless matches.
That's possible, but then Reid will just get injured again shortly after returning anyway, probably while running through the cheer squads banner :P
Watch a Collingwood replay, he runs around it!
Reid is going to have to go forward as the Woods fwd line looks like very ordinary without him.

Unfortunately no. Carlton have 2 rucks on the senior list and both are injured so Wood will be elevated. They have no LTI's but Sheehan is the other that will be pushing for a spot but I think Sheehan might be carrying something as well

Far out, from what I have seen, he might rack up more points in a quarter than what many rookies will in a whole match. That says a lot, when you consider the value on offer in rookies this year, too!
I checked Sydney's draw and they play plenty of early games, no Sunday games whatsoever prior to the byes. One can therefore replace him if need be.

Cripps = LOCK
Exactly what I came to the boards to write!
Massive lock.
I am disappointed with his game today, had him locked for a few weeks...
Carlton supporters say he might struggle to push anyone out though. He's still a risky pick
Never had Cripps in my team haha

Cripps still ins't in the best 22.
My answer from the Cripps thread
Quote from: Mat0369 on February 27, 2015, 10:31:36 PM
Looking at Carlton's midfield I still seeing him playing reserves early. Bell is ahead of him and I think Graham and Cripps are fighting for one spot based on team structure.
I just see Carlton's center line looking something like this
Simpson Gibbs Bell
Ruck Murph Judd
Curnow and Carrots also rotating through there with guys like Boekhorst, Thomas, Docherty, Yarran, Whiley (injured), Everritt, Menzel and Buckley all pinch hitting if they get games.
and another thread when asked about Cripps
Quote from: Mat0369 on February 08, 2015, 03:30:54 PM
He will probably be fighting for Brock's spot but then again, Brock was fighting for a spot in the team. I think this could be another development year for him and he will predominantly play reserves footy. He doesn't have the pace that someone like Boekhorst will bring to the 22 and he hasn't got the ability to play forward yet. You also have the more experienced (in terms of development even though they are both young) ball magnet in Graham fighting for the same spot, Whiley comes in and adds another player with a similar skill set but better defensively.
The core midfield group to me looks like this
Murph, Gibbs, Judd, Simpson, Carrots (when healthy) and Curnow
You then have these guys rotating through in Docherty, Yarran, Thomas, Bell, Buckley, Menz, Everitt (pending on his role) and maybe even Walker (his role is the big unknown)
These are the guys then all pushing for spots
Cripps, Boekhorst, Graham, Whiley and maybe Tutt, Armfield and Holman as pinch hitters.
He can't play off HB, he can't play off HF, if he is selected it has to be as a pure mid and he isn't ahead of guys like Murph, Gibbs, Judd, Carrots, Curnow and Simmo when he gets his run through there. You also probably saw how good Everitt was yesterday (at least in the first quarter and a half I watched) and Bell has a few more tricks up his sleeve at this point. Just quickly looking at the best 22
Tuohy, Jamo, Jaksch
Yarran, Rowe, Docherty
Gibbs, Murph, Simmo
Thomas, Levi, Bell
Menzel, Hendo, White
Warnock, Judd, Curnow
Carrots, Everitt, Walker (when fit), Boekhorst (sub)
If they want the extra pace you also have Buckley, Tutt and Dennis. Ellard can also play a small forward role, Whiley, Graham and Cripps are the bigger bodied guys that will come in
I watched the Collingwood game earlier tonight, he still needs a lot of work, especially with his disposal. Simple handballs were way off target and when the heat of a real game is on he could be a liability. Jaksch was another that in the first quarter was all over the shop but he settled in the 2nd half. Both are still very raw and are going to make mistakes but I think Jaksch is the only one that gets a spot round 1. Cripps will get games but he may be a vest candidate
Also with no Walker they had White playing the high half forward almost wing role with Levi, Jones and Hendo as the 3 keys, if Walker isn't fit round 1 that could be a similar line up but with Jones in there instead of Walker. Sheehan and Buckley are two others that could come in and play off HB or in Buckley's case HF which will release either Docherty or Bell to play in the mid rotation on a more permanent basis which is bad for Cripps. Boekhorst also played mainly off HF and was quite good so that doesn't help Cripps either
HHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Well.. he'd have to be a lock for a round 1 start.
I guess it's up to him from there.
It's not as if he can ONLY play if a mid spot is open surely
If Mick plays Boekhorst and not Cripps, he's lost his mind

Really?
Gibbs topped their disposals last year (39th in the comp)
Murph was 2nd for the Blues (53rd in the comp) and is more an outside player.
Murph was the best contested possession winner at the club (28th in the league- of players who played 5 or more games).
I'd say that they do need an inside mid player (outside of these 2) who can win some footy.
Some guy who won 2 brownlows missed half the year plus preseason last year lets not forget
I liked the look of Clancee tonight. Is he best 22 for dockers?, and does anyone have tonights SC scores yet, WC v Dockers.

Thanks FactHunt,
Fyfe's an absolute Gun. I think he's the best selection out of everybody, on price I would pick him over Ablett, Rocky, Pendles, and Selwood, but all 5 are gun players.
Lachie Neale, just average today, but has had a great pre season. Are there any danger signs there.
Clancee did enough at his price I think.
NicNat still a worry, hopefully he should improve on that when the season starts. Cant have 66 at his price, would upgrade to Jacobs prior to R1, but still unsure on NicNat.
Lamb letting me down :(
Think I'm going to look at Laverde for my F7 as if ASADA lays charges he could play a key role for his team!

Yup. He has another mate that has had calf issues as well.
Also when you look at the totals in terms of possessions and disposals, Carlton as a team ranked in the bottom of the league. This has a lot to do with game plan so the overall numbers are not going to be huge compared to the rest of the league. However when you look at percentages you get a better idea. 46% of Murphy's possessions are contested, he is not an outside player, he is a combo guy. Gibbs is at 43% and he improved his inside game last year. Just for comparison, Nate Jones runs at 41.8%, Rockliff at 41.5% and Pendles goes at 45.8%. Libba and Selwood are both at over 50% but the contested numbers are decent, they aren't just outside guys by any stretch of the imagination.
Outside run is what Carlton lack at the moment which is why they went out and drafted Boekhorst.

There is no way he is ahead of Bell and Bell will probably play more flank and rotate through the middle anyway.
I don't know who he replaces, but it's crazy to believe that there are 22 players in better touch then him

The thing is you can't play a team of 22 midfielders
Once you get past the core 6, guys have to be able to play multiple positions to get a game. Look at the good teams and how they structure up, they have a core group of mids with a mix of inside and outside guys and then they have guys that can play through multiple positions.

Yeah I get that, but would still be surprised if he doesn't line up rd1
Cripps will start round 1. Was better than 20 of there 22 players on the field.... He will be a midfield rotation no doubt. These days you can play mids off half forward and half back anyway. Carlton won't finish top 12 and he will be able to get games in an average side at best...
The thing is if he gets a game and no vest round 1 it will be due to Walker being out or the sub. There is still a lot of risk to the pick and he could very well be out in round 3 and have the green vest in round 2. It helps that Carlton play Thursday and Friday night in both weeks so you can monitor how he goes but he is not a lock.
The other advantage is he is expensive for a rookie so if he doesn't pan out you can trade him to a cheaper rookie that is performing well
TMitchell couldn't get a game after a million possessions in the 2s. A lot more goes into building a side than just chucking in guys in form

Guys like Cunningham and Lloyd aren't more talented then Mitchell, it just happens that they had pace or were more versatile then Mitchell, while Mitchell was competing for a spot against JPK, Hanners, Jack and Parker

I'm not so sure about that. I think Horse is more along the lines of if you're playing well you don't get dropped, and I guess that's the angle I hope Mick takes with Cripps
Either way, everything you're saying makes total sense, so only time will tell I guess

Reason being we can only elevate one rookie since we have no LTI's and with Kruez not being ready early and Warnock getting a shoulder knock in NAB 2 they have to elevate Wood out of necessity. Kreuz and Warnock are the only pure rucks on the senior list
Looks like Lamb is definitely holding down Darlings spot for now.
And it sound like Sheed could make the 22 as well.

Scott Selwood is feeling good about his body and is already looking forward to round one against the Bulldogs after making a successful return to the Eagles side yesterday.
Selwood pulled on an Eagles jumper for the first time in season 2015 after fighting his way back from ankle surgery late last year.
Selwood, who gathered 25 disposals, says it was good to get back out there.
“It was good to run out there with the boys again,†he said.
“It was a lot of fun, even though we lost, its NAB Challenge still though so no points on the board.
“I thought our intensity was really good, and it was mainly from the young guys which was great to see.
“If we can keep that intensity up for four quarters I think we’re going to go places.â€
Selwood was particularly impressed with the continued development of Eagles youngsters Tom Lamb and Dom Sheed, who again showed signs they’ll be players of the future.
“Tommy Lamb just keeps presenting and he’s filling the void of Jack (Darling) at the moment,†he said.
“Hopefully we get Jack back in soon enough time, but he’s doing a great job in there.
“He’s a bit of a spark and you love watching his big dreadlocks running around.
“Dom Sheed’s had a terrific summer, he’s worked really hard.
“He’s reaping the benefits now and I think we’re going to have an elite player in him hopefully.â€

Young draftee Tom Lamb has played in all four of the Eagles' pre-season matches. The 193cm Victorian was selected with pick No.32 in last year's NAB AFL draft from Dandenong.
He gathered 13 touches, took four marks and kicked 1.1 against Fremantle. Simpson said he could potentially play round one.
"He seems to have adapted pretty well to the intensity," Simpson said.
"He's still going to make some errors but we've got to have a bit of patience.
"We also don't want to rush him straight in. There's another level to go to for round one.
"But we'll review the game and see how he worked off the ball."

Pretty sure someone asked Mat about him and he said no chance
Reason being we can only elevate one rookie since we have no LTI's and with Kruez not being ready early and Warnock getting a shoulder knock in NAB 2 they have to elevate Wood out of necessity. Kreuz and Warnock are the only pure rucks on the senior list
I don't quote me but I thought the blues had 2 spots available promotion

I think we have a few boys on the veterans list this year which means we can only have one nominated rookie unless we get a long term injury.
word coming through overnight that Winderlich has hurt his back again
Edwards, Gleeson, Ashby
probably in the line for his spot
