TommyC's Tigers 2019

[Mat0369]

NGL, probably like this structure better than my own 4 premo forwards tempting me! Hit me with your Yeo reasoning, very interesting pick and I’m far from opposed to it!

1. Many will overlook him as he has lost DPP
2. Averaged 107 in 2018, one score below 70.
3. Remove the score below 70 and he averaged 112 last year
4. Finished the 10th-ranked player last year
5. It's very hard for opposition teams to keep him quiet

That score below 70 was a 27 I believe. If you take the lowest score you should also take the highest score to give you a median. So that has him at about a 109 average.

A couple things with Yeo, he has always been prone to throw up a stinker (or multiple) which should see him drop in price at some point. He also didn't really have a pre-season last year, hence the 27 early in the year while he was trying to get his legs under him. With a full pre-season this year you're likely to get better output, but I don't see a lot of scope for improvement at his price.

Some good points raised Mat.
All I can hope for from Yeo is a consistent 110+ average. I am comfortable paying 585k for him at this stage.

Finally got around to changing up the team post JLT1.
Decided to go for a lot of changes.

Rookie -> Mills
Fyfe -> Oliver
Merrett -> Libba
Rookie -> Walsh
Wingard -> Rookie

Watchlist:
- Sicily
- Merrett
- Neale

Obviously I am light in the midfield however Libba could turn into a Martin type as I have plenty of coin.
Forward line I just downgraded Wingard to a rookie.
Defence I just added another 'premo'.

[TommyC]

Fifth draft of the team.
Decided to go for plenty of changes.



Miles -> B.Crouch
Laird -> Williams
Smith -> Boak
Bewley -> Butters
Yeo - Neale
Cavara - Balta
Collins -> Scrimshaw
Parker -> Drew
Atkins -> Scott

Obviously have a lot of money in the kitty.
Any advice appreciated!

That is a lot of spare cash. You could use it in a couple of different ways. First would be to turn Corbett/McAdam into the best forward prem you can afford. Option 2 is to turn Libba into a legit premium mid.

Mills is the one I have struggled to make heads or tails of how he is going to go this year. He played behind the ball as the loose man in JLT, same role Lloyd would have had. Z. Jones went into the guts for the Swans and they appeared to like the Parker/JPK combo with a number of different options as the other guy. Without a clear cut role I don't know if I can pick him as he might score 100 one week and 70 the next. That 85 average may not be good enough.

Libba to Macrae

Yeah, I am definitely still uncertain on Mills. Not sure who he could turn into though..

Libba to Macrae

Highly considering this MS

Although Macrae isn’t currently in my teams if I had the funds he would be. I’m hoping he drops in price and I can nab him early on.

[sammy123]

Very good team overall. Just some rookies need to b reassessed

Draft 6 of the team.

Went Libba -> Macrae
and Corbett -> Parker



Call me crazy but I am thinking going Whitfield to Laird

Apart from that I love the team.
