Money Shot

Final Team (I hope) Subject to rookies:

Williams, Smith, Roberton, Scrimshaw, Clark, Duursma (Burgess, Hore)
Cripps, Oliver, Neale, Coniglio, Dusty, M. Crouch, Walsh, Constable (Scott, Atkins, Gibbons)
Grundy, Gawn (Bines)
Danger, Heeney, (Boak/Walters), Greene, Setterfield, Drew (Balta, Parker)
15k

Defence: Williams, Smith and Roberton all have the potential to go 90+ and fill out my D4-D6 come seasons end. If Roberton doesn’t play round 1 he will be moved to D. Moore. I have picked the defender rookies who I believe have the best scoring potential to go on field and then Burgess/Hore who look like having decent job security to fill out the bench.

Midfield: I have tossed and turned about Macrae for a while now but I am pretty set on not starting him now. My top 6 mids I believe will finish top 8 and I will try and get Macrae later in the season. Fyfe/Kelly have both missed out due to limited preseasons. Walsh has been locked since day one and then the other 4 rookies look most likely to play round 1.

Ruck: Grundy/Gawn say no more.

Forward: Danger/Heeney are locked and I am taking the punt on Greene. He looks a lot better at F4 rather than F3 though that’s for sure. Walters and Boak are fighting for a spot at F3. Boak the safer pick IMO but Walters has the better scoring ability I would think. Setterfield and Drew look like decent scorers and balta/Parker on the bench to round out my team.

Would love people’s thoughts on Boak vs Walters as both are somewhat speculative picks.

Yes I have but then decided to risk it for the biscuit. All 3 of Scrimshaw, Clark and Duursma should score relatively will in my opinion and allows me to go super strong else where.

Definitely interesting, similar to what kb said, I feel like the mids might unbalance the defence, maybe downgrade one of your mid premos and get another premo in defence? I do agree that Smith and Roberton can go at at least 90, but if it was me I'd feel a bit better knowing I had another tried and tested gun in defence. At the end of the day, it's a solid team so if you feel this is the right setup, go for it.

Different is good!

I’m sick of always finishing in the top 5000-10000 may as well do something different and see how it goes.

Would much prefer Coniglio over Laird and Crouch over Whitfield

Fair enough, hopefully it pays off for you. :D

Southstorm

Boak over Walters every day of the week, more consistent, plays more games and has three seasons of 99 or more.

Yeah the more I look into it the more I see how Walters has not lived up to his expectations season after season.

Boak locked in at F3. Has a good bye and should score 95 comfortably I think.

I'm going 3 defender rookies but if you are you almost have to go Collins. You cant have that many 50/50 rookies weekly. I'd take him over Hore.

No Butters either? Gone super lean on the rooks

Am tempted to get Collins in for the extra job security.

I don’t think Butters is going to score a hell of a lot more than Constable.

It would be Gibbons, you'd trade Gibbons for Butters and i see a big difference there

That’s true. Could be 20+ points there.

Yeah I would find the cash to get Butters in the team too...probably at the expense of Gibbons.

Money Shot

Whitfield, Williams, Smith, Scrimshaw, Clark, Duursma (Burgess, Hore)
Cripps, Oliver, Neale, Coniglio, Dusty, M. Crouch, Walsh, Constable (Scott, Atkins, Gibbons)
Grundy, Gawn (Bines)
Danger, Heeney, Greene, Moore, Setterfield, Drew (Balta, Parker)
$10,000

Boak to Moore
Roberton to Whitfield

Pretty happy with the team.
14 Keepers (Greene and Smith F6/D6) and Moore. Can’t complain.

Considered Hanley/Taylor for Roberton but didn’t want to risk it.

Would like to get Collins and Butters in there but don’t think they are must haves.

Luke Ryan is a pod I’m considering. Has the good bye, well priced and should benefit from the kick in rules. Whitfield is just so much safer though.


Bully

Good job, identical structure to mine. I've gone with Collins over Scrimshaw because of JS & the fact I can trade down if need be.
