Another factor in 2011

[mt_williams22]

I find one of the hardest decisions on Friday is who to start and who to bench out of my rookies (cashcows).  The sub rule has further complicated my decision and therfore I am asking you guys what you think!!

My concern is in my midfield, I have 2 spots and am deciding between D. Heppel, D. Swallow, D. Harris, T. Liberatore, and E. Curnow.

My concern with liberatore is that he is named on the bench, and may be used as a sub against Gold Coast to give his younger body a little break.

Thoughts??

Thanks guys!

i'm thinking that libba won't be subbed, coz of 2 underdone players in lake and gilbee coming back into the side, reckon theu may be subbed for each other especially playing against the suns

[charliesheen]

even if his subbed.  I still reckon he will score well.

[mt_williams22]

So out of the five players I listed you think i should start Liberatore and.......?

Harris, Heppell, Swallow in that order

either harris or heppell. i managed to fit heppell into my backline, and put harris on the ground. if you can do that, do it.

[charliesheen]

Harris is a lock.

Would not go curnow.

That leaves, swallow, Heppel or Liba.  I would personally with Liba even if he gets subbed, due to the opponent and it being at ES.

I would not be too fussed if you choose swallow/heppel though.

I think lake will sub with markovic...

I'd go Harris, Libba, swallow, Heppell, curnow.

All good options - nice team if you didn't trade for any of them

Agree this is the most likely scenario

Also don't see why Libba would need a rest when the dogs have a bye next week.

Barry hall had to come off last week cause of a dodgy back, so would think markovic starts as sub and comes on for hall or lake whoever needs a break the most

[twinkle]

Hall comes off Lake goes forward and Markovic goes back maybe.

Libba won't be subbed. He is young and needs a break but they have the bye in a weeks time ;)
Also as said above 2 men coming into the team, both underdone, both more likely to be involved in the subs.
