Quote from: arbel on February 26, 2025, 01:41:07 PMThat's a very stacked DEF. Haven't seen any with 5 premos in there. Just keep an eye for rookies come the season.

Is there any rookie I'm missing?

I can get Berry & Kako by giving up one of O'Driscoll or Tsatas. Worth it or not?

Or should I downgrade Nas to Dale and upgrade Henderson to a 119k rookie?
Yes, I recon it is worth it.. get Kako!

Next question, how do I come up with 50k? Rookie downgrade or premo downgrade?

This is like chook lotto, at least we're not burning trades, I get the funny feeling this season will require a fair degree of luck on the injury front.

I think I'll be grabbing Daicos, I also liked Houston but that kills me with the bye. Put a line through Richmond players, better grabbing rookies with a better support cast.

I reckon blight will play every game, but not sure he'll score enough at that high starting price.

Nice Team only concern Rd 3 bye with the prems missing. Bye structure this year a real pain.

He's got a dodgy shoulder plus he's a little raw, if you want to roll the dice on a Tiger then Trainor looks AFL quality, biggest positive for a Richmond supporter in a game we were absolutely flogged.

Houston back to firing rockets, looks like he hasn't missed a beat from last season.

Every year this happens and every year I pick players I don't really like. I seriously hate this round 0 bollocks.

Nah not missing any rookies down back, but might be worth downgrading one of the prems to a Perryman/Short. I wonder if Tom De Koning is worth getting now? Pittonet now out for 6 weeks so he'll be solo rucking.

Perryman is another with an awkward bye, Holmes probably a better bet under these circumstances. Short won't be top 6, can't see it with so much disarray across the board. Holmes still trending up, I think 105 avg. not out of the question.

De Koning versus English, tough one but I'm inclined to grab the player with a bit more clarity with their role.

Updated with the Bont news, Merrett is the obvious replacement for team balance, I like Serong but I already have Brayshaw. The flex spot now looking much better, there's still a few good rookies in the Powell-Pepper price range if he doesn't get up.

Any concerns with Angove after last night, Very limited time even with the outs Swans had - I put a line through him plenty of other options though,

Yes, not a good sign, but L Camporeale certainly threw his hat in the ring, JS might be an issue.

I think 20 possessions & 2 clearances is a terrific sign from Camporeale, having a punt with M10 isn't such a bad move, worst case scenario is he becomes a loophole.

Team looks great, English looked very good, ton of marks.

What worries me with Campo is he will be the sub. I'd love to see him get some early games and he looks like he played the role pretty well. It would be great to have a Campo running around on the wing again

I think there's a sub risk with all the cheapies, if he's in the starting squad I reckon it's worth the gamble.
