Cardiomegaly SC 2019

jvalles69 · January 22, 2019, 05:57:51 PM

Testing the waters with no Gawn and I quite like it. An odd 65K in the bank.

DEF: Laird, Blakely, Williams, Newman, Collins, Wigg (bench)
MID: Cripps, Fyfe, Neale, Dusty, Brayshaw, Setterfield, Bewely, West (bench)
RUC: Grundy, Kreuz
FOR: Danger, Smith, Heeney, Greene, Hill Cavarra (bench)

Plan if Kreuz goes down? Feel like you almost have to have Hoff if going Kreuz at R2...other than that looks pretty good man!

Yeah I think I'm going to have to take a loot at JLT, but I much prefer the rest of my team with Kreuz in it. I could opt to go with another ruck like Stef, Witts etc, but feel like after Grundy and Gawn, Kreuz has the highest ceiling.

No Gawn definitely does make the rest of your team look stronger.

What are you expecting out of Newman. I personally see him going 85-90. Would that be enough at his price?

Ringo · January 24, 2019, 11:54:04 AM

Trust you have enough cash to allow you another 8 rookies you would need a minimum of $1m to fill imo and allow for movement if those already named do not start.
Nice Structure and team though. Newman an interesting pick though.

Thanks for the comments, I've done another update.

DEF: Lloyd, Blakely, Williams, Roberton, Collins, Wigg (Duursma, Kelly)

Going Lloyd as a POD to Laird. Newman to Roberton for the extra value may possibly go down to a Birchall if he plays.

MID: Macrae, Cripps, Fyfe, Neale, Oliver, Setterfield, Bewley, Atkins (Stocker, McFadyen, Smith)

Still feel Dusty will have his quiet games, going uber premium from the start with Macrae. Not 100% sold on Brayshaw so with the Newman money I've gone Oliver.

RUC: Grundy, Kreuz (Fort)

Risking no Gawn, will see how Kreuz looks in JLT.

FOR: Danger, Smith, Wingard, Greene, Hill, Cavarra (Corbett, Mosquito)

Not sure about Heeney's role, he and Mills could finally get the mid time they should have, but until I see it I think Wingard is better value.

I feel like a have a good mix with what I think is the best player in each line. A few value picks who I think can be top 10 in their lines. Minimum keepers 9-11, max keepers 11-14.

Nice changes JV.
Team is looking good, very nice midfield.
Only concern is Roberton but if he can reach 2017 average he will definitely be a good pick.

Thanks man, this the year I make an impact! Brayshaw/Newman vs Oliver/Roberton, almost feel like the Brayshaw/Newman combo might be slightly ahead. Final team like all of us will depend on rookies.

It's a hard one, because I quite like Oliver, but I am still unsure on Newman v Roberton. I've gone with Withergoat who is a littler more pricey at D3, but obviously your decision is for D4.

Yeah, I could upgrade Williams to Witherden and go with a Birchall, but I think Williams will be up there.

Well the Blakely injury solves that problem! :-\

very nice side, i have a similar set up, i like your PODs

check out and rate MY TEAM, any advice is appreciated and welcome.

jvalles69 · February 08, 2019, 12:17:08 PM

A few adjustments to take it closer to a guns and rooks approach. Still tossing up between Libba and Miles or drop down for an extra rook. Currently have 180K in the bank to make adjustments if more money needs to be spent.

DEF: Lloyd, Witherden, Williams, Collins, Burgess, Wing (Duursma, Kelly)
MID: Cripps, Oliver, Fyfe, Neale, Dusty, Miles, Lately, Bewley (Hind, Hayes, Atkins)
RUC: Grundy, Goldy (Fort)
FOR: Danger, Dev, Wingard, Setterfield, Hill, Cavarra (Corbett, Petrucelle)

Now to sit and play the waiting game.

Mids and Rucks look great. A little weak at F4 and D4.
I would do one of three things.
1. Drop Neale/Oliver to a cheaper premo to get the cash to get Greene in (+ your 180k)

2.Drop Miles to a rookie, get Greene and a Roberton/Smith type at D4.

3.Drop Neale/Oliver to a rookie and get Greene and another back premo. Or Roberton/Smith and another fwd premo.

If you don't want Greene JJK, Worpel or even Parfitt could be options.
