Sam's TEAM 2.0

[Samsturmfels]

What do u think of my team?

yes, having belly in the rucks might be risky, altough he is very cheap. Sometime before the byes i will also upgrade one of my fwd rookies into a premo ruckman,which will give me cover for later on.

if waters was named rd 1 i would also pick him. I also see one of T.Adams or Tmitch to be a good pick up

Strong looking team very Prem/ rookie look about it. The only thing is there is no ruck cover is one of the two rucks go down you're in trouble

[AaronKirk]

I'm not a fan of the Hodge and Smith picks in defence. I can see Hodge being managed and an undefined role for smith.

Allan Richardson has said that Goddard won't get games early.

What do you see Cotchin's output being- many better picks IMO.

Need ruck cover if you have Belly at R2. Get rid of Adams, move Belly to F4 and bring in one of Kreuzer or Leuenberger.

Think you're going to have trouble finding enough rookies to fill your defence.  Richardson has said Goddard won't play early.  Whitecross is questionable - and you won't know prior to lockout whether he will be sub or not (plays Easter Monday).  So you may need 4 rookie priced defenders - might happen - come on NAB challenge!

Need either a DPP Fwd-Ruck link or a bench ruck who will play - a week off for either of your ruckmen will cause drama with no cover at all.  Either Bellchambers to the forward line and Kreuzer to ruck or hope for a playing bench ruck - perhaps Nankervis, Lobb, Phillips - time will tell.

Don't think Heeney will play round 1 but he can be easily downgraded to a cheaper mid rookie when the plight of rookies become better known.

Hodge and Adams are nice uniques - could pay off nicely for you.

I rate this team 7/10 not bad.
Mids actually very similar to mine -cotch,backs i have gone 5 deep atm but only 2 premos+ Vlastuin/Henderson ect
and fwds i have 3 premos + tich.

[nperera95]

def: Solid backline. Like the pod in Hodge but not sure if whitecross would be in their best 22.
mid:Strong mid. No NVB? Like the rookie selections
ruck: Not sure why you got Belly in the ruck. Need a DPP fwd ruck to link with belly
fwd: Like the forwards. Like the Adams pick

Thanks guys  ;D
-I feel like B.Smith will have another good year
- yeah hodge, shaw and simson aint totally set, are there any better options????
-either NVB or Biggs will be in my starting side

RUCKS:
-Kruezer got injured today...
-Luenberger never seems to be injury free
-Belly is cheaper, and in my opinion less chance of getting injured (he may not be the highest scorer, but at 300k he is a bargin)

many people are suggesting having both belly and one of the others, is it really worth it though? All i need him to do is play the first 4-6 games to make a good amount of money, and if he did get injured i could upgrade him, if not i would upgrade a fwd rookie to a premo ruck. Then swing belly into the fwd line

Would rather Hodge to Newness as I can see him being managed a lot more this year, Other changes sound,

Team Update:


What do u guys think?

[Money Shot]

Great side mate!
Hodge will probably get rested so just be aware of that!
Danger has contract talks which may see him play bad (although he is underpriced)
Not sure on Belly and Adams.
Apart from that it's a great side!
Would love your thoughts on mine :)

[Samsturmfels]

who would u suggest getting instead of Hodge?
Danger was put in my team to try and help my bye structure, good chance to not be in my starting team
Belly has a massive amount of value
Ill be watching Adams over the next few weeks, if i dont get him a may get TMitch

Hibberd!
Yeah fair enough!
Get Titch over Adams if possible!

[Samsturmfels]

for some reason, i actually dont like Hibberd. Nothing personal, just dont like him
