new team - churning these like butter!

cdonny · December 22, 2011, 06:34:58 PM

First off, not liking those bye rounds, am gonna be royally screwed!

Here's my first rough attempt, lemme know what ya think.

TEAM NAME: The MadSnakes
DEF: B. Goddard, B. Deledio, J. Grimes, N. Grima, B. Lake, S. Docherty, B. Ellis (W. Sierakowski, B. Smedts)
MID: G. Ablett jnr, A. Goodes, J. Watson, J. Ziebell, S. Coniglio, A. Morabito (J. McDonald, T. Mitchell)
RUC: N. Naitanui, H. McIntosh (J. Giles, O. Stephenson)
FWD: L. Franklin, M. Pavlich, D. Martin, N. Riewoldt, J. Brown, J. Porplyzia, I. Folau (A. Saad, B. Dick)
CASH LEFT: $167,900

I know Ziebell us out for the first 2 rounds, but next season i've got a feeling he's gonna come alight (bias naturally)
And taking a big risk on the rucks... nic nat had an awesome year with a pec injury, can only get better, and H.Mac was AA worthy 2-3 years ago, will increase in price.

Nat,H Mac and Giles will share a bye in Round 11 something you may wish to look at.

Not too fussed with starting Goodes in the mids at start of season. He traditionally starts slow and builds into the season/ I have quoted some stats in other posts where last year he averaged 95 for the first 11 rounds and 120 for last 11. Maybe an upgrade Target. maybe he can be a Selwood or Murphy initially.

defence would not take the risk with both Lake and Grimes coming back from injury. Would only take one to minimise risk.

Well, the ruck line might actually work. I imagine giles will be playing most games, although inconsistently, he will be playing. Not too sure with rioli, with his constant hamstring injuries, IMO i think Stevie J is the way to go instead. I have never heard of aaron black, and i havent seen him in any other teams.......... but since i don't know him, i cant judge him. Solid midfield, like ziebell as the unique. Nice backline, im just not touching lake with a 10 foot pole, coz im not convinced that his body his right yet. But still, a pretty solid team.

Black is norths next 'up n coming' fwd, has been hampered with injuries, but got on the park last round of the year and did pretty well - hoping he gets game time more than anything, might change him to the porpus.

Rioli im uncertain on too, though im not sold on stevie J either... a little bit of me wants josh kennedy, have a bit of a gut feeling.

Pretty Good.

However, isn't Shiel a lock in most team....

Rather get Riewold+40k over Rioli...don't know who is A.Black. Ruck are not bad

First I would never ever again have a kangaroo rook, thenway the coach puts them in then out they play every third game or like pedersen last seaso spend an eternity in the magoos after a solid game. Screw that never again a Roos rook for me.
Your def is solid yet grimes and lake some would say should be premium and rook instead.
Your mids are more solid by one premium than most and that is simply because your rucks are one premium shorter than most.
Little light on in the Fwds too I would use your money to upgrade rioli, toomhot and cold for me.

Good side but don't take too long to upgrade that second ruck it will cost you points every round.

I wish I had 4 hands so I could give the "1 Prem ruck theory" 4 thumbs down.
