Craftcoat needs help again...

[craftcoat]

hey guys, could you offer me your thoughts on the better combo/why?

Malceski  & L.Ball

                         or

Harbrow & C. Masten

- Right now i have Harbrow as my 5th back with Masten as 4th mid but it's hard to ignore Ball who is just rejoicing with lavish TOG... 

ideas?

[woozie10]

i'd go mal and balllllll.

[craftcoat]

Now, is that an objective statement or should i read into the fact you support the pies as clearly stated hehe. The only real issue i can see with the ball and malceski combo is that i'm removing two seemingly durable players in masten, harbrow and replacing them with two characters that have had serious injury issues in recent times (knee,groins). Then again, I believe they have higher scoring potential than masten,harbrow. Grrrr it's too tough...

cheers woozie btw

anyone else have an opinion on this here pickle of mine?? ta

[elephants]

lol i have all of these players but i too would go mal and ball

[nas]

ball = more time on the ground with micks rotations ie swan (etc)
mal = a very good money earner for a future upgrade down the track

IMHO

etc etc

thanks for the help guys, looks like ball and malceski will likely be welcomed into my squad. With that change, my current team will appear as follows:

Enright, Duffield, Hodge, H.Shaw, Malceski, Hunt, Waters (Nason, Silvagni)

Bartel, Stanton, Cross, Ball, Martin, Barlow (Bastinac, Shuey)

Sandilands, Tippet (Warnock, J.Roughead)

Roo, O'Keefe, Gia, Higgins, Gray, Dangerfield, Mayne (Hitchcock, Pods)

I'm willing to gamble on waters as he seems to have made it through the pre season unscathed and represents far better value than kennelly/ladson imo...

team looking water tight??  cheers gang

that move actually freed up 20k that allowed me to upgrade mayne to Ballantyne who seems a much better pick (his recent injury is pretty slight hey?).
cheers again :)
