Down grade Hille or petrie to ottens, Charman or even kruezer and use the spare cash to upgrade zeibell to at least a mid level forward.

ShrewDext · February 26, 2009, 12:43:41 PM

What is he talking about?

Start Hill in the backline, Rich in the middle and keep Ziebell or Yarran starting FWD. No worries there IMO.

Maybe move Ziebell to MIDS and consider one of the KPF's. You can get away with it in SC.

Axe Watts and any Adeaide FWD's.

Dawson will give you nothing.

No COX!

Meh..

Didnt you learn anything last year?

Important you realise ShrewDext writes No Cox, meh for everyone, obviously biased. Cox is a lot of money to outlay for a ruckman with a hotspot in the foot last year. As mathew egan has shown, they hang around.

ShrewDext · February 26, 2009, 01:09:11 PM

Yes that is true. Coaches post teams for opinion and I give one.

I think very little of teams who dont have COX.

I hate the Eagles but the big fella is FF gold. Leave him at your own peril. He played 22 Rnds with his 'hot spot' in a team that was tanking for the highest draft pick possible. He also played (some) the NAB cup, a game that means nothing, when other high profile players were rested and WC fielded a team of kids wearing numbers 40 and above.

My opinion as requested / pleaded.

Tryed a few different moves as suggested, but ended up not liking what else I had to choose from..

Alsowhat are KPF's? Sorry haha

::EDIT:: $84,200 left in bank

KP = Key Position Fwd / Back

KPF's Gumbleton / Grant / M. Brown (WCE) will be better suited to SC then DT.

I reckon it is safe to start Ziebell or Yarran FWD in your 22.

I agree with Shrewdext; Cox is a must.
