And that's when I give up reading Rate My team posts :P.

I must admit that I stop replying to most of them around that time as well.  Still read most of them but they are nearly all the same.

Exactly. Hopefully this season it will be different.

If there is a chance of teams being different then this is the year (with the new team and byes in play)

Justin Bieber

Probably will. Some teams will use MPP, some won't. Rookies should hopefully be different. Alot of midfield rookies to choose from again which seems good.

The introduction of Gold Coast will be interesting. Lets see if teams jump on their players or avoid.

I think a lot of the GC Rookies will be used

Justin Bieber

But I don't think many will go for more than 1 in each position :-\. I'll be tossing up maybe 2 for each position. Especially up forward seeing as the Suns didn't recruit much for forwards.

The fixtures come out on Friday (cant remember if it is this Friday or next) so we will know more then.

I've never been one to judge my fantasy team based on fixtures :-\.

I say a Gun is a Gun no matter who he plays :D.

Surely you want to make sure your guns arent on a bye during the DT finals

Justin Bieber

With the extra trades, will see how I go during the year. Why not get a gun for the entire year and trade him out in time for the finals if so? Have 6 extra trades. Could be a great tactic!!

So if Just say Sandilands, Swan and Goddard all have byes during the finals, does it mean to avoid them? Probably not ;).

If we pick up Jack Anthony will our shots for goal improve? I suppose to have a stay at home forward like Anthony gives us a chance to bomb the ball in long for when we want to get a roll on

Maybe some of the Pies supporters can correct me if I am wrong, but isnt Jack more of a lead up forward than a pack mark type.  He is only around the 190cm mark.  Still, would be a very handy addition to the forward line

Justin Bieber

Yeah, he is more of a lead up man. Still, wouldn't hurt to get him behind Pav and alongside Mayne and Bally.

Cicjose

Then that means that we will still struggle to kick scores because we will have no one up forward when Fremantle are getting beaten because Pav will be in midfield and Anthony will be too far out to score

If we pick up someone like Conca, Cripps and another midfielder late then we will have more options in the middle and Pav will be able to go forward where he belongs.  Balla, Mayne and Walters will be able to work off Pav/Jack which is how they should be playing.  At the moment Mayne has been playing as second tall which he should be 3rd tall.  Then throw Sandi up there for 5 mins a quarter.

Looks a lot better IMO
