Money Shot 2018

Kreuzer's Losers: PRE JLT TEAM

DEF: Hurley, Laird, Hibberd, Brayshaw, Doedee, Cumming (Murray, Mirra)
MID: Danger, Dusty, Titch, Crouch, Fyfe, Davies-Uniacke, Brodie, Worpel (Kelly, Barry, Holman)
RUC: Goldy, Gawn (Olango)
FWD: Heeney, Greene, Billings, Bundy, Dawson, Venables (Fritsch, Crowden)
CASH: $1,800

DEF: Hurley has a wrist injury currently which is a concern but if he is named round 1 I think I have to start him, he averaged 107.6 from round 5 onwards and can’t see he won’t continue that form this season with a stronger team around him. Laird and Hibberd play the perfect role for point scoring in supercoach and are pretty much lock and loaded in my team. Brayshaw I am not as confident anymore as he has been touted to play a defensive role this season to try and protect him from concussions, does that mean he will be used as more of a lockdown defender which could hurt his scoring or more of a rebounding role alongside Hibberd? I think Brayshaw is too good a player to not play in the midfield personally so I am happy to take the risk.
MID: Danger, Dusty, Titch and Fyfe are the four players that I think will go 115+ this season and I have pretty good confidence that this will happen. Crouch I think is the next best chance to get 115+ as he managed exceed that comfortably for the last half of 2017 and can’t see why he would start slowing down now. Only concern here is having four players that already have the round 14 bye but I am happy to take that risk if they all start the year 115+

RUCK: Gawn is the obvious choice and possibly the lock of the season and Goldy is in for Jacobs as I think he has the potential to go back to previous seasons form and cement him self in the top 2 come seasons end and Brad Scott and players (Including himself) have said he has found his love for the game again and that he looks like he did at the start of the 2015 season. Preuss is a risk but I can’t see North playing him over Goldy especially early on. Worst case scenario he averages 90 with a few stinkers best case he goes 110+ and is the clear standout ruck alongside Gawn, I don’t think Jacobs has that ability.
FWD: Heeney is back and full training and has the talent to be a 110+ player although I don’t think it will be this season he should still go 100+ comfortably and be the number 1 forward come seasons end. Greene is a concern as he is not back in full training but with his scoring he is in my side for now and if he doesn’t get up round 1 I can change him to literally anyone, he is in his contract year and in his prime in a team that will want to be top 4 I really like him, Billings is in a similar boat to Greene as he has had a small hamstring injury recently but with his form towards the end last season and his midfield minutes increasing I can’t see myself not starting him round 1 if he does. Bundy I think has the potential to become a keeper at F6/F7 with a 80-85 average and even seeing him in the AFLX has me confident that he will be a good pick.

Round 10: -
Round 12: Mitchell
Round 13: Hurley, Hibberd, Brayshaw, Goldy, Gawn, Greene, Bundy
Round 14: Laird, Danger, Martin, Crouch, Fyfe, Heeney, Billings

My byes are a tad concerning but as long as I focus on trading in round 12 players early (Simpson, Bont/Macrae, Cripps/Murphy) I should be fine.

What's the plan if Cumming doesn't get up?

[Fid]

I like your team and structure MS.

I was going the same with the Goldy/Jacobs swap, but kept Jacobs because of a better receiving mids in Sloane, Crouch, Gibbs and others compared to North....

My concern is just having $1,800 left

Keefe, Murray, Finlayson, Gardner, Goddard, Ballenden etc. Im sure there will be people that pop up throughout JLT.

Yeah price is a concern but I have very expensive premos and a couple of top priced midfield rookies so I should have enough wriggle room.

I am picking Goldy as a true POD at only 3%, if Jacobs and Goldy end up with similar ownership percentages I will probably go for the safer option in Jacobs.

Hey Money, thanks for the feedback on my team yesterday.

There's a lot about your team I like. The structure is very similar to what I'm going with.

I have one query, and a couple of observations:

Query: if Brayshaw at D4 works out, this structure could be the winning formula. I have reservations, and so have invested a bit more in this spot for a Sicily minimum type. But I'd love for you to be right. I'm interested in Brayshaw and Seedsman, but can't bring myself to do it... yet.

Observations: I live in Hobart, and have just returned from the North Melbourne - Melbourne game. I haven't looked at the stats, but to the naked eye Goldstein was lively, very mobile, and competed well against Gawn. I currently have Jacobs - Gawn, but may actually switch in Goldstein here. A Gawn - Goldstein Ruck set-up feels like it could be fruitful for a combined 210 weekly return.

Fritsch obviously had the goals, but aside from that my eye was constantly drawn to him whenever the ball went into Melbourne's forward fifty. Based on today I may actually start him at F6 (a 65 return would be perfect).

Davies-Uniacke only got his first disposal a few minutes before half time. That worried me somewhat.

Brayshaw had a spud outing today, definitely a risk.

Thanks mate!

Brayshaw being upgraded to someone at that 400k price range is likely if he doesn't show me something in JLT 2, was one of the lowest scorers on the ground which is a concern.

Goldy I really like as a pod, scored decent against the best ruck in the game so can't fault him there.

Fritsch has almost cemented his spot in my team after yesterdays performance.

Davies-Uniacke stays in for now but not with confidence.

Hey Money

The team looks great to me.

I'm unsure who to pick at D4 I currently have Brayshaw but am not convinced. If Brayshaw doesn't come up maybe Sicily could be an option?? Do you have any other thoughts on who you might pick at D4 other than those 2?

[Trindacut]

I feel like you're going to have to do a least a few changes to your guns, you need rd 12 byes. You can be careful who you trade in but as it stands now you won't be able to trade in any 13/14 byes so you could miss out on some good rookies or surprising guns.

Crouch/Billings/Goldy

I don't rate Goldy. Has issues, hasn't recaptured his past form. Kinda on his last led.

Yep, Brayshaw needs to show something next weekend otherwise he is gone. C. Ellis, R. Bonner and A. Mcgrath are people I would look at.

Yeah fair points.

Im just so set on my premiums at the moment so it is going to be hard to change them. Espescially my midfield ones.

In regards to Goldy I think worst case scenario he avergaes 90 best case he goes 110 and replicates his form from only 2-3 years ago. He is only 29 so I don't think it is impossible for him.

[Ringo]

Like your premiums Money.  Structure sound. Just need to hope we get some decent rookies starting Rd 1.

Yep, only pick im not confident in is Brayshaw but he has another chance to impress me in his final JLT.
