I have added the rookie and PSD picks.

Cheers M0nty. Question: how is Sam Rowe listed as a RUCK? Pretty sure he is a forward and will play in the Forwards all year at Carlton...

Do you have any inside info we don't?

[m0nty]

Forward it is, fixed. Thanks!

[Matty411]

no worries buddy - good job.

I have added a line under the team lists for the spread of byes your team has. This is going to get rather complicated, so I think a blog post will eventually be in order once the rules have been finalised, but the simple fact is that a structure of 8/11/11 for your bye players going into round 11 is the optimal mix to minimise the amount of necessary trades. Much more on this later.

Damn, I was hoping that this wasn't gonna get published by someone with a big following (wishful thinking I know).  I thought I was a clever little cookie for finding this. 

I am currently 12/10/8 in my initial lineup with rounds 11, 12, 13 in mind.  The first lot of trades start about round 8ish, so 4 trades in 3 rounds is what I am planning for.

Amazingly I just looked at the team I had created ages ago and turns out I have a structure of 8/11/11 for the byes. Looking forward to you explaining why that is the best mix

Valk, nice try but I'm afraid I have a super mega bye manifesto ready to go when the rules are finalised.  8)

Hey m0nty I think you need to change Brett O'Hanlon's position to forward. Every report I have read of him says he is a forward and there hasn't been any mention of playing in the middle ;)

[Matty411]

M0nty, any idea whether Sam Reid (GWS) will be listed as a DEF or MID/DEF in 2012? Everything I've seen points towards him playing in the back 6 but is listed as a mid.

m0nty will you b changing the prices to the offical prices on dt and sc?

The official SC positions only has him as a midfielder. Sorry ;)
