2nd Team for the year :) rip away

I think Tyson is a must as he has the potential to average 75-85, and should make us over 200k

I would get rid of Jobe and bolster up the forward line as relying on Rohan at F5, then 3 rookies from 6-8 is too weak

If Laidler can get regular games his a great pick, but that's a big IF currently

EVERYONE is going with 4 prems in the midfield. Honestly, its not going to be enough early. Here are my calculations:

Watson (or another prem) 115 + Rookie fwd 60 = 175
Tyson 80 (on a decent week) + Prem fwd (who are inconsistent scorers) 85-90 = 165~170

Prem mids also have the potential to go 120+ on some weeks and rookies may score 70-80 but I can't see Tyson and a prem fwd combining to get 200. And thus I believe its better to start strong in the middle (4 prems plus beams) than it is to get Tyson and a prem fwd. With the prem mid you get (almost guaranteed) a 110+ score where as fwds are too inconsistent and sometimes the rookies may even outscore the prems (eg. Sam Dwyer last season, there are other examples)

[RaisyDaisy]

That's fair enough, but people going with 4 mids have a stronger fwd line AND backline

Watson 115 + JKH/Rohan 60 + Laidler 60 = 235

Tyson 80 + Prem D4 (Because Suckers and McDonald are 5-6) 95 + Caddy 80 = 255

Obviously we can fiddle around with the numbers, but whether you go with 5 mids or 4, I just don't think its a certainty that the 5 mids structure will make more points, and that's because the poorer rookies needed on field in def and fwd offset it

There's no right or wrong - just go with the structure you believe in :)

I cant get 2 premiums after downgrading watson lol.. Its either upgrading the fwd or back.

And I believe the 5 prems is the best structure. Used it last year, in fact last year was almost the exact same because Fyfe was underpriced (like beams).

Not trying to make you change you mind mate, just offering a different perspective, which I'm pretty sure what RMT is mostly about?

I'd rather give you another option and make you think about things from another angle, instead of just posting something like "great team man" and offering nothing constructive to help
