My early attempt at SC glory 2010!

Torress,

Good team mate. I would get Pratt in there also his price is to good to refuse.  I dont mind bock he has been pretty solid but his price wont go up by much where as Pratts should go up well.
Your defence would be solid as and consistant each week !!!

Midfields aren't to bad GAJ and Cooney are the only two guns really. If you could get another player on the rise in the midfield you would be laughing. eg. Daniel Rich will play alot again next season and should increase value.

Rucks are good. Hopefully Hille is ready for round 1. Warnock should play heaps of games.

Forwards - As Hawk says you have 2 risky players with Burton and Walker. I like Walker but has to stay on the park. And what if Burton breaks down again with his leg (you can see it now)!! They both can score well but are injury prone. I think if your going to pick them you have to go with one of them and hopefully it pays off for you - thats my opinion anyway.
Rusling on the bench? Be nice if he doesn't do his shoulder again  :-\

Hi Torress,

Only reason I went off Bock is because he has had an interrupted preseason. I really don't like picking guys who have had limited preseasons. This is the time when you build your fitness base, it doesn't happen during the season. During the season it's about maintenance and skills.

Dalziell is more suited to DT in my opinion, although he may score well on the wide spaces of Subiaco. I've almost locked him into DT but not SC.

Vince definetely stepped up in 09, go into his player profile and look at his last 6 games. Then tell me your not interested? He is an elite now and is ultra consistent in his price range. Then next best players are 50k more expensive in my opinion.

[Torress]

thanks for the replies magic and hawks

okay i looked into bock and his heel is a bit sore i think - didn't know that - so cheers i'd much rather pick a fitter player especially for a prem.
okay yea had a look over vince and ur right m8, last 6 games were hot. by the looks of his season averages he kinda reminds me of a gibbs b4 09 season - i can't pass that by now, so yea dalziel may make way - i like prismall for this season, im def starting him (and im a bombers fan so im biast) - actually i wonder why it only states im a liverpool fan, i must not of signed up correctly. anyway, yea pratt frees up 100k, bring on vince for dalziel then things are looking a bit more riper.. magic yes i agree burton and walker risky - think i'll stay with burton and replace walker.

- also do ppl think roo is a lock in 2010?? steap price at a little over 600k, don't want to have anyone else except for gazza over that price from start, (cox might as well be but he is a lock in my mind) - so is roo a MUST have from start - he has not needed surgery this preseason..

[bradway]

not enough rookies and some ordinary players in there....Ladson? M Williams? Watts? Laycock?

First rule of SC, never ever EVER get Laycock!  Same goes for Kepler Bradley!

back to the drawing board, at least it's only early!

Ladson ordinary  ??? Go watch a game of footy champ, his foot skills are absolutely elite.
Ladson is a premium defender and one of the best buys for SC 2010.
There is no question mark over his fitness. His 09 injuries are behind him and he is doing a full pre season, get on board.

Bock is still struggeing with that heel, on a very modified pre-season, I gave him the flick!

[Torress]

think i've got things about where i like them now... obviously can't say 100% as too far out..

could i have some feedback - weak ruck but had to squeeze in, could swap NDS to upgrade 2nd ruck but not phased happy with any old 2nd ruck for start of season for say 7 or 8 weeks plus i really like NDS , has had a good preseason with no surgery unlike other key sainters - big price tag but capable of big scores and doesn't miss many games

Backs - Newman, Drummond , Hodge , Pratt , (lookout wait 4 it....) ladson, kennely, hunt  - res - farmer, J.trengrove
Mid - GAJ, NDS, Vince , Cooney , Prismll, Palmer
-res blease, strauss
Ruck - Sandi, Warnock - res - lobbe, west
FWD - Lids, Pav, Higgins. Gray, Dangerfield, trengrove , Cunnington - res - gumby, rusling

feeling good with team now but getting other oppinions helps alot i got 24k remaining...

Torress,

Thats very impressive I think you have a really balanced side.
Defence is very very good, midfield is exceptional Rucks arent to bad, Warnock should play close to 22 games as your 2nd ruckman - as long as he doesn't hurt himself during pre-season.
Forwards are good also plenty of good players there Gray could end up being a keeper or you could end up trading him - all depends on form and if injurys hit you. But I love it well done!

cheers 4 reply kanga,
i liked gray for start of 09 season but didn't pick him in the end - i really like him this year especially when i heard that he looks like geting midfield time. don't wanna pick power players but i'll eat my own words and most likely pick him - unless lecras seems like a better choice.... cheers m8 im striving for balance throughout side, i wouldn't mind squeezing enright into backline to make 5 prems but realistically - if kennelly hunt and ladson are all good - you'd prob look a bit silly without them down back..
