On the flipside, if you cheap out on a midpricer and they turn out to be a dud, then it is harder to trade your way out of trouble.

Unless theres a rookie you don't have that unexpectedly has scored well and has a high break-even…where's the pray emoji when you need one!  :P

Yeah, tbh I think Lonergan is the only one on that list that I could genuinely start

I'm sure at least one of these guys will breakout but I don't think the risk is worth it

Laird down to Lonergan is mighty tempting though, or even Bartel down just because he'll likely miss a couple

Is it really that big of a deal to take a risk on Bartel and if it doesn't work out or he misses a couple, just downgrade to the right midprice breakout? You get 30 trades (Remember only having 20?) and if you're lucky you might even make some money off it.

Yeah I'm not dropping Bartel

Really struggling to figure out which way to go with my backline, and it's doing my head in!

Who have you got currently RD? Backline is doing my head in too!

I've rejigged things again. I took out Heater for a brief moment but just can't leave him out so he is back in

Heater and Bartel are locked, as are Dea, Hartley, Brown and Adams

D3 and D4 is what is killing me. I could go with Laird and Broad or even Lonergan and Weits, but I am now looking at doing Lonergan and Broad, and then using that extra money to upgrade Bennedy because I'm having doubts about his JS

@RD u not worried about Bartel getting rested? i have him at D3 but keep thinking of that not many other guys i want at around 470k though

Pretty much same reasoning man

Bartel is literally the only player in the 400-500k range that interests me. If he misses a game or two, so be it

I don't expect him to miss games early and by the time he does hopefully our backlines will be more or less complete and able to carry him

Who can you upgrade Bennedy to mate? There's not much in that 300-350k awkward price range

Looking De Goey, or possibly Steele too

Yeh don't mind that actually. I've been trying to get Lonergan in my side today

Need an opinion on something

Is it better to have a 3 premo Def and 2 premo forwards or vice versa with 2 premos in the back and 3 in the forwards

completely depends on which premos you have picked and which rookies mate

Macmillan and duggan vs Byrne Jones and Robinson

What are your full fwd and back lines though Tex?

Laird and Yeo with Sheridan and then rookies subject to change, and barlow and hall, wells and rookies

So its

Laird MacMillan Yeo Sheridan Rookie Rookie
Barlow Hall Wells Duggan Rookie Rookie

vs

Laird Yeo Sheridan Rookie Rookie
Barlow Robinson Hall Wells Rookie Rookie

Is that right??

Yep, sorry bout the lateness   :-\

All good mate. Tbh I don't really like the mid pricer picks Sheridan and Duggan. Can you down grade Duggan and upgrade Sheridan?

[almonds]

Sam edmund claims he spoke to shannon hurn who said elliot yeo will be playing midfield. Take what you want out of that.

The teams are starting to get an eerie sameness about them. PODs ate so important this year.
Can someone please tell me something about lonergan? Also, which 2 of kk, rich and laird would be the best? Can't decide

Definitely Laird, maybe Rich just ahead of KK...

I'm just too sold on Sheridan to get rid of him now, he's staying there for now  ;D
