Gray + McVeigh

Fyfe + KK

vs

Gray + McVeigh

Tough one because Fyfe is still in the rehab group and McVeigh has had post season surgery himself with no word about how he is travelling so he's making me nervous as all my planning has involved him. I'd say Gray + McVeigh atm.

Mine...
Shaw + Gray     vs     McVeigh (if fit) + Beams

From this article enzedder

"He said an injury to his shoulder that required surgery and ended his 2015 season had been progressing slowly but he was on track.

“The strength and stuff is pretty good in it. It’s just more feeling confident within it to get back out there with the boys. We’ve taken the cautious approach towards it .

“I’m not too sure about NAB Cup at this stage but all things are tracking towards me being right to play round one which is the main thing, I guess.”

So with Beams we may have another player going into round 1 without a preseason game.  So you may be forced to go Shaw + Gray.

Thanks Ringo. As much as I would love to start Beams perhaps it would be better to go the two you say...2 fit types v 2 questionables.

Looking at some backline combinations at the moment:

Laird & Malceski

or

KK & Smith

Thinking there's a lot of potential in this bunch!

KK & Smith for me as I like both the picks.

I also like the Laird pick but not the Malceski pick as I don't think he will average enough to be a keeper.

J Lyons (Adel)   v   D Wells (Nth).  Can afford either and currently going with Lyons with total uncertainty.
Was muted by the Herald/Sun to benefit by Danger's departure and gain more mid time. Yet doesn't appear
in the Sun's version of the Crowes best 22.
And Wells in his "last" season. Don't envisage either becoming a keeper, unless I suffer injuries like this last
season. So it comes down to who will score best, accumulate cash quickest, and give the best over all result
until trade time.  The biggest call-cry ATM is watch in the NAB, but unfortunately a lot of these questions
won't be answered then, due to the total unimportance of it. Thanks in advance and cheers to all.     :-\

KK and Smith from above..  Don't believe that Laird's role will be as SC friendly this year, and Melceski would have to really show something in the " It doesn't matter Cup "

[Corkascrew]

Looking at back options
shaw + aish vs bartel + Rosa
I really think shaw will be top 2 and aish
Has potential so leaning towards option 1

I'd lean towards option 1 for same reasons mate.

I've considered KK off and on and at end of last year thought I'd have him for sure... Only reason I don't now is because I have Bartel, Yeo and Smith but if any of those 3 go down he'll be my go to.
I haven't considered Malsexy or Laird at all. Easy one for me.

[enzedder]

@ Sabre... See how Nab goes but Wells all day atm.

If Lyons plays, pick him over Wells every day of the week without the vest.

KK has been in and out of my side too. Still not sure with GC mids to come back in.
But i still think KK & Smith over Laird & Malceski.


I have to decide on Yeo or Smith

[Gigantor]

Buddy + Leuy

Vs

Crouch + Tippett

Vs

Crouch + Sinclair + 65k

Had Buddy and Leuy for ages but am now worried about potential missing games, leaning towards option 3 pending Sinclair's performance in NAB

[Ringo]

Actually prefer B Gigantor -  I think Tippett is more a potential keeper at F6/7 to provide Ruck coverage.  Think he will score better than Sinclair if you want to save a trade.   

[Ringo]

One for discussion

Daniel Wells v Jarryd Lyons. 

Wells injury prone but huge upside if he can get 6/7 games in.
Lyons will he be one to benefit from Dangers departure or will he slide down with Crouchs return.
