Must improve on last year

For me Rowell and Butters

A little feedback needed.

Gresham, Rowell or Shiel.

Martin, Butters or Heeney.
Cheers.

Of those options I'd go with Rowell and Butters.

I didn't realise Shiel was so cheap, but I don't trust him to stay healthy and he can butcher the pill. He actually seems like a nice risk/reward POD.

While Rowell has had his body let him down as well I think he will be a very good stepping stone.

I think a lot of people would go with Dusty out of the other 3, but Butters had an insane start to last year before getting injured. Another pre-season and I can see him stepping it up and maybe adding the consistency

I'm definitely looking at starting Butters.

May even replace De Goey

Hall is looking more and more unlikely for Rd 1 so watch and see.

Playing rookies will eventually decide our structures. Butters looks good for F2 and Rowell for M5.

He is out of my team for now. Even if he is fit he is likely to get injured at some point based on history and is probably an ideal pick up then

Def: Lloyd, Stewart, Ridley, Daniel, Gibcus, O'Driscoll. Rookies McDonagh Dean

Mids Macrea Steele Oliver Neale Gresham JHF Daicos Rachele .Rookies Mead Parker Tsitas

Rucks Darcy Jackson. Rookie Preuss

Forwards Martin Heeney Rayner Cogs Stengle Hollands. Rookies Comben A Parker.

103k itb. 17 days to go!!... thoughts.

Mat0369 · February 27, 2022, 10:15:10 AM

Is that Jackson Luke from the Dees?

Yes Mat..

Mat0369 · February 27, 2022, 08:05:27 PM

If you're sold on starting him I'd pick him as a forward with his DPP

It feels like a waste at R2

Ashmore62 · February 28, 2022, 06:50:02 PM

Thanks Mat.. did start Jackson at F3 initially.. but either way not happy with structure ..Soooo.

Def: Lloyd, Ridley, Dale, K Coleman, Gibcus, O'Driscoll. Rookies McDonagh Dean

Mids: Macrea Steele Tich Neale, Gresham Cogs JHF Daicos .Rookies Mead Parker Tsitas

Rucks:(Nic Nat) Darcy Grundy Rookie Comben

Forwards: Martin Heeney Butters Rayner Stengle Hollands. Rookies T Kelly T Wanganeen.

67k itb for rookie adjustment. Better??? Thinking Nic Nat would be more durable.

Peter · March 02, 2022, 08:58:25 PM

I have NN too - good bye round and in SC
as good as the other guns

Ashmore62 · March 14, 2022, 08:13:39 PM

Forwards: Dunkley, Dusty, Treloar, Rayner, Cogs, Rachele, Subs: N Dixon, N Martin.

26k inb. Pretty much final side b4 season start.. Main worry are rookies as usual. would love your thoughts and would love to see more sides..

Really solid set up. I don't mind the Caldwell pick. I've been looking at him myself as a 200kish alternative

I'd prefer upgrading Caldwell to Cripps & downgrading Rayner to free up some cash.
