Rookies???

[gooch]

How many ROOKIES are you starting on the ground in total???
How many of these are in the midfield????
If your backs and forwards are mega strong and start 3 rookies on the ground in your midfield i recon it can do.


What are your thoughts??

Gooch, i reckon you hit the nail on the head there.

People will disagree here but most of the rookies that will serve as very good cash cows are in the midfield this year, no doubt. So with a 3-3 strategy in the midfield would definitely work. But I think a 3-3 would only work in supercoach tbh... if u had 3 rookies in ur midfield (gaff,conca,swallow etc) they wouldnt have to get heaps of posesssions to score well in S.C, they just need to be effective hence i think a 3-3 would work like a charm in that case. Converserley in dreamteam, i think its better to go with a 4-2 set up. Rookies take time to find their feet and rack up the disposals as such so i think 4 prem's and 2 rookies are perfect for dreamteam. Most people are going for a 4-2 setup in both fantasy leagues but its really up to u..

If u start with a 4-2 midfield setup... u really only want to have 1 rookie in the backline, and 2 in the forward line (assuming krak is a rookie). if its a 3-3 setup i reckon you'd be able to go 1 in the backline and forward line.
But you could honestly have more rookies on the ground but its really up to personal opinion and what your objective of the game is!!!

Lot of talk in the paper on Dyson Heppell. Dont mind Isaac Smith either.

there is a heap of cash cows this season i reckon, particularly with GC coming in this season and GWS next, teams as you all know have had to stock up on more experienced and mature players which is awesome for footy.
Currently i have 5 starting rooks. and my bench loaded

Yeah I have 6 rookies starting (3 in Mids) with plenty of MPP so hopefully it pays off.. Risky though

[8-6 Suited]

5 I believe starting total.
