Wow!!!!!!

Now only 13 teams can play finals on 2016

Ricochet · January 12, 2016, 11:09:12 AM

For some reason I'm still not sold on Leuey. Will need to have a big finish to his preseason and decent NAB for me to seriously consider

Money Shot · January 12, 2016, 11:10:45 AM

Leuy, Zerret, Bird, Goddard are the guys I'm considering now with Lobbe from Port ... This is huge!

My POD's in Z Merrett an Bird will be POD's no more. :'(

Lobbe has to be a lock now.

sammy123 · January 12, 2016, 11:32:24 AM

least we will have a few rooks too look at now

sammy123 · January 12, 2016, 11:35:20 AM

Jackross10 · January 12, 2016, 11:36:02 AM

Definitely has to be considered. Was not the least bit SC relevant for this year until today.

You would think he will be the sole ruck now with Dixon giving him the occasional chop out.

Still many cheaper players with the same output.

Devastated as an Essendon supporter, but intrigued as a Supercoach.

Why would the opposition teams bother?

I'd still argue that they could be

given the squad has basically been ripped out (not arguing that) it'll be like GWS/GC in their debut season
who stood out for them then?

3 over 90 for both teams according to a post from another site.

GCS - Ablett 127, Rischa 95, Bock 94
GWS - Ward 106, Green 95, Giles 93
