2019 Premium Mids

Already got Cripps and Oliver.

I love Fyfe, Kelly and Neale as picks but I am only going four mid premos and MCrouch is my other guy.

All have question marks though. Fyfe how many games? Kelly interrupted PS and interrupted past 12-18 months, how does he fare with the extra added attention he's gonna get? And Neale at a new club?

Also, I know it was a PS game but Coniglio and Taranto went absolutely bananas the other day against the Swans.

I honestly think the new 6-6-6 rule means taggers take away way too much for teams. You're pretty much sacrificing an on baller from the start, so its a ruck and 2 on ballers from the middle.

I honestly think there is a lot of disrespect going around for Macrae at this stage, a lot of people are forgetting just how good he was last year hahah, if you take out that injury affected game where he was on 51 at half time he averages 130+ for the season, thats 15+ points per game better than all those guys mentioned.

And if you really wanna put a perspective on it, he was 47 points off Neale, 109 points off Oliver, 213 points off Cripps and smashed the other two guys on total points. And guess what? He MISSED 3.5 games. He would've beaten Titch as #1 mid scorer, yet everyone was happy to choose Titch as a starting MID prem before he went down. Just don't understand the disrespect hahahhaa

How dare you come in here with valid points making me question not starting Macrae!!! I have convinced my self he is over priced :P

Martin had a standout 2017, then dropped back to the pack last year ;). Macrae could easily do the same, but even if he keeps up a 130 average, you wont be losing much picking an Oliver/Neale/Fyfe instead.

(I don't see how Neale at a new club is a question mark fwiw - no-one seemed to think Danger or Titch at a new club would be a question mark and people are considering picking Beams as well; and Oliver's surgery hasn't changed anything to how he plays if JLT1 is anything to go by)

I upgraded Neale to Macrae a week ago, looks delicious next to Cripps.

This is the most comfortable ive been on my team yet. Theres legit only one selection thats doing my head in this year now and thats M4. How the flower are you meant to decide between Kelly, Fyfe, Neale, Dusty and Yeo to go with Macrae, Cripps, Oliver, **** and Crouch...

Anyone not starting Fyfe?  His scoring is too good to miss out on, but 99% he's going to be traded out at some stage...

Every year, he's one of my first picked, and then every year I have to trade him out at some point ::)

[kilbluff1985]

one thing i use is

i want Cripps cause i have Walsh and Gibbons
i want Conigs cause i have Hately
wish Geelong had a mid i wanted to go with Atkins/Constable

but yeah like if i cant decide between a couple i like to match with rookies if i can

obv so if the premo misses then likely the rookie plays but 2 premo/rookies from seperate clubs are more likely to miss imo

I do the opposite, less chance of having players on the same bye.

[kilbluff1985]

rookies probs change b4 the bye

Fyfe and Kelly are the obvious 2 choices but injury history. I'm considering canning them both for Neale and go with his consistent games played in the past. I'm already risking Greene and B.Crouch. Idk if Fyfe is wise on top of those.

Lol, that's exactly what I'm thinking hence posing the idea.

Not starting Fyfe. Upgrade target later in the season for me - need to see if he can actually stay on the park

Fyfe's goneski.  Feels strange but refreshing not having Fyfe and Dusty in my mids...

Keeping Fyfe, got rid of Dusty for Brad Crouch
