How many keepers are you starting with?

[MC]

4/5/2/4 = 15 keepers  :o

[Ricochet]

3-5-2-4 = 14 incl. Libba

[ben_020285]

4-6-2-3 counting libba.

Same at the moment.

Could end up 5-5-2-3 or 4-5-2-4 depending on where the best rookies are available and possible cash restrictions.

[meow meow]

12 of the best.

[LordSneeze]

To keep this consistent no one should be counting the mid pricers as keepers, as they are not.
They have potential to be yes and you might be selecting them with the belief they will be, but as a Starting team keeper there is risk in all of them.
This includes Libba, Smith, Crouch etc

its why some people are saying 15 while others only have 12.

[ben_020285]

Keepers are simply players you expect to be keeping for the year. It's as simple as that.

Premiums are a totally different story and everybody will have different views on what premiums are defined as on each line.

Libba and Brodie Smith are definitely selected as keepers. That's been pretty consistent across this thread

I was more making the point that many of the difference in peoples numbers will be due to the interpretation.

Using your theory though I would include Zac Williams, seedsman, libba, crouch, JOM, Smith, Lobbe as keepers. As many people will be picking them as potential keepers, not as stepping stones.

[timtim]

3/5/2/4 = 14 (incl Libba)

[Ringo]

3/5/2/4 = 14 (incl Libba)

Think this will be a lot of teams at the moment.

[Samsturmfels]

im not really a fan of this question, you cant actually prevent players getting injured or having a below par year. Such as Malceski who started as the most expensive defender last year and ended up averaging very low numbers (which it wouldnt be worth keeping him)

That's fine. I still think that if you're paying over 350k (ruling out crouch, JOM and seedsman) you should expect those players to be in your final team. Trading them out would be a luxury trade once your team is finished.

And you're reading into it too much. This is just to see how you've structured your team in terms of premos.

[frenzy]

4/5/2/3 Not including Crouch and Wells.

[Grufflez]
