new look, have a look and rate plz

Gandalf123 · February 22, 2015, 05:34:48 PM

Smith, Shaw, Birchall, Hurn, Newnes, Fuller (Viojo-rainbow, Mckenzie)

Ablett, Fyfe, Beams, JPK, Biggs, Boekhorst, Vandenberg, Freeman (Laverde, Drummond, Lambert)

Maric, Naitanui (Cox)

Buddy, Goddard, Swan, Ziebell, Salem, Clark (Steele, Krakouer)

Went with a solid 5 defenders due to slim pickings of rookies down back, fuller is just making up the numbers until someone pops up in the NAB cup to snatch up, feeling pretty happy with the look of this right now! What's your thoughts? cheers legends

No Hogan?
Isn't Birchall injured?
Get Pendles if you can

Keep an eye on birch. He is currently injured
like your mids but imo you should have pendles in there as well.
good ruck
hogan a must

Nice Team Just a couple of comments.

As has been said Hogan is a virtual must in forward line at the price. Work in when finalising playing rookies.

Bit wary of Beams at a new club so watch in the NAB cup to see how he is fitting in to Brisbanes structure.

As has been said keep an eye on Birchills fitness and watch Fyfe as well.

cheers guys, went salem to hogan, upgraded birch to simpson for the time being and beams to selwood, I just don't like Pendles so I never put him in my team!

Good choices.
I for one love Pendles (one of the only Collingwood players I like) and anyways you shouldn't let that make you not pick him.

Exactly. The way I see it, you'd hate him more when he is belting out 120+ each week and he's NOT in your team. A must pick IMO

The Ziebell pick could be a handy POD. He averaged 100.5 at the back end of the season after he was the sub against my mob and had a good final between two average ones. Obviously he is an injury/suspension risk but if he can average 100 I don't see a lot having him.

I personally am not sold on Maric but he is getting some love around here. If I was going a POD ruck I would rather bank the 30k and take a risk on Minno bouncing back

I agree with this too ... shouldn't leave someone out just cos you don't like them. If you didn't like ablett would you leave him out???? A must have in your team.
Other than that I'd downgrade one of your backs and upgrade maric.

Yeah i was looking at Minson earlier and was pretty keen, just not sure how badly the new ruck rules are gonna effect him, also been thinking of a Maric to Belly move and using that cash elsewhere, i'm sure i'll chop and change a lot more come season start but yeah! Also hoping ziebs has an injury free season and doesn't knock off too many blokes heads! would be handy, cheers.

hard to argue with your logic there really! I'm just a bit to bias sometimes when it comes to picking players unfortunately!

When Minno was an AA he lead the league in hit outs to advantage. He struggled in that category last season. Bellchambers also had a hit out to advantage ratio of 29% last season so he should be a decent mid price option

Gandalf123 · February 25, 2015, 05:15:53 PM

had a little bit of a chop and change, Horse gave Tommy Mitch a big wrap up earlier and if he's named round 1 he's a lock for me, snuck D.Rich in there and TBC at R2 and kinda like it, leaving Birch in there until further notice, got $20k to play with if need be, thoughts?

darlize · February 25, 2015, 05:41:14 PM

That team is much like mine!! :D :D

Gandalf123 · March 20, 2015, 02:41:28 PM

Ok! this is what I've come up with at this stage, hopefully saad gets up so i can start him on the ground, otherwise i feel alright without Gaz, what's everyones thoughts? cheers

Solid team mate can't fault it
