Rookie situation is so confusing

[supercoach addict]

The rookies this year are so confusing and frustrating. Aside from the obvious locks like Giles how are you supposed to know who to pick?

To name a few...

Neale- Injured
Magner- injured
Zorko- Injured
Hall- Injured
T Mitchell- Injured
Shiel- First year player who hasn't played all pre season
Treloar- Same as Shiel
D Smith- Played one ripper game and then left out of team
Gibson- Not very impressive, no guarantee to be upgraded
L Brown- Hasn't played all pre season
McDonald- Old as hell, limited amount of games
Smedts- Pretty unimpressive in NAB
Walsh- Same as smedts
Bugg/Mohr/Tomlinson/Darley- I'm betting some of these guys will either be subs or score like duds

And lots of others I can't think of right now.....

totaly agree. nearly all of those players listed have been in and then out of my side

I like it not as easy for everyone and theres not going to be duplicate teams.
People actually have to do some thinking for themselves.

And the bad thing is there are plenty of other good looking rookies (e.g coniglio, wingard, stevens, clifton etc..)
but these guys cost that bit extra that adds up quite a lot over the team

With 400,000 teams, there's bound to be some duplicates!  ;D
The trick is in the trading.
