My Team (UPDATED)

[Junktimer]

mophead,

its a good team, just a few queries.

Only 12 premiums starting, most try to get 13 or 14, of course Drummond and Side ass have the ability to become premiums, but for now that is quite a little amount.

Round 4: 3 starters, 1 benchie (Probably won't cop a 0, but score will suffer slightly.)
Round 5: 1 starter, 2 benchies (Good amount)
Round 6: 5 starters, 2 benchies (Will hurt you a lot, this includes 3 starters in your forward line out, and a benchie.  Even your MPP option for forward line, (Mzungu) will be out too.  Pretty much a certainty to cop at least one 0, probably more.)

At first glance, this team is brilliant, as all the selections made are very good.

I also think Petrie in the rucks would be better than Jolly.

Mophead, I'll give it a 9/10.

thnks guys, knowall, im just gunna go  with swan. i did some research on all this pendles vs swan stuff and i'd rather hve him.

cheers MTTY :)  no 10? :p

Got to see if your rookies perform in nab first

[mophead222]

shower, rd 6 doesnt look tht  good, thanks JT :)

[Junktimer]

no worries mophead, its a really strong team apart from that!

[bomberboy0618]

yeah, but then again are you going for league or overall?

[Junktimer]

with a team like that, he should go for overall as well

[bomberboy0618]

Ah ok.

[mophead222]

i think its stupid to go for the league, coz if you have a strong team in the overall rankings, your league should fall into place anyway. :)

JT do you think its neccesary to make some changes just on the rd 6 bye dillemma?

[Junktimer]

I think if there are other plausible options to go with, change, though if there aren't you may just have to roll with the punch.

[mophead222]

i dont see many options for trades tho :(
i guess ill just take it on the chin and hope that prestia and darling are both playing nd ill only cop one 0.

could hurt my overall a tad but throughout the seson i rekon most teams will del with the same problem

Hey moppy,

At first glance there aren't any real issues with this team.
One thing I noticed was that there's only 12 prems in the side (most sides have fit in 13 or 14). Since you're starting 5 rookies I'd kind of expect you to have 13 + prems starting but I can see you've decided to spend the money on having Jolly in the rucks & prestia on your bench so it's not an issue since you've at least spent the money wisely.

Bye wise... -.5
r4 - 3 prems (not too bad, hard to have below 3 with godd, roo & drummond practically being locks)
r5 - 0 prems (perfect)
r6 - 5 prems (will definitely cop a 0 since 3 of these prems are in your fwd line and i.smith is on your bench who will also miss out)

So as I said, can't find any real problems with this team, but at the same time it doesn't really feel like a 9.5, feels more like a 9. Still a great team though!

[Junktimer]

haha tfer we gave like the same advice.

[mophead222]

B -  Goddard, Gibbs, Deledio, Broughton, Otten, Drummond, Jacobs - Iles, Richardson, Toy

M - Swan, Boyd, Swallow, Swallow, Gaff, Heppell - Green, Krakouer, Mzungu

R - Sandilands, Petrie - Smith, Bailey

F - Riewoldt, Franklin, Pavlich, Rioli, Sidebottom, Knights, Prestia - Lamb, Darling, Mcdonald

Goddard for heppell straight postion swap.

Jolly for Petrie

Mcdonald for Max Bailey

I.Smith for Mcdonald

hey tfer can u do this for my team?

[tferrier18]

moppy,

the boyd trade will mean you'll have another player out during the first non-playing bye so I wouldn't recommend it.

But I do like goddard in the backs.
