thx for the rate hally....appreciated ;)

Bruce is def unique. With Hodge move into the midfield, I feel Bruce is going to be the rebounder. I have him too :)

nostradamus · February 06, 2011, 03:25:50 PM

great minds think alike ;D

Thanks for the comments on mine.

Not too keen on Harbrow, too up and down IMO.

Like the fact that you've got a lot of unique picks in there.

Also not sure about Petrie as a starting ruckman, think he will get scores between 50-60 all year, rather have him in the forw line and have MPP in the ruck. Then you can use Petrie for cover or have him on the forw bench for higher scoring rookies. Either way, I'm sure your plan is to upgrade him then it would suffice.

thx for ur comments jvalles'

my gut says harbrow is gunna hav a breakout year...so am going with it (fingers crossed)

...with petrie l did hav the mpp link initially, but decided to roll the dice a bit and invest the extra cash in the forward line (which l think is really solid now

but l understand where ur coming from with ur feedback, and cant argue with the logic of it

I'm actually now considering shipping Petrie for a forw with more upside and getting rid of Tippet for another rookie ruck who will actually play. 4 playing ruckman might be better than relying on Petrie for cover in the forw line, and you may never need him if Smith plays a full season.

thats exactly the way l looked at it....then uv got 2 bench ruckman growing in value too...my only doubts are on bailey, if he holds up, and if he plays...because he almost needs to be chosen as no1 ruckman as the hawks recruited hale for a reason....the bonus of his forward play

Johnnysd · February 06, 2011, 10:30:30 PM

get rid of marlon motlop put in I. Smith (Haw) will start on wing for them i reckon
only advice i can give!

nostradamus · February 06, 2011, 10:44:45 PM

Thx johnny,
l think I.Smith is a better player too, and l might still pick him.....the only problem l hav with that is in his multi-bye round l'll hav 3 fwds out....... depending on my c/f coverage. I have worked to get a team that has balance across all weeks including the multi-bye rounds

cmgb84 · February 06, 2011, 11:14:40 PM

m.motlop is flying for port in the pre season, i am also hoping he prooves to be a unique cash cow that slips under the radar... 3rd season a list and is ready to go round 1 with ports desire to play youth
