Tigers Draw

[Colliwobblers]

So the Tigers have a tough draw, at least they do for the first half of the season, please vote and comment on what your thoughts are on starting Tigers players, upgrading to the instead as the draw gets easier or skipping them altogether due to the draw. After all is really that much easier after the 1/2 way mark.

Thinking I'll start with...

Deledio (Keeper)
Ellis (Cash Cow)
Morris (Cash Cow)

And upgrade to...

Dustin Martin and perhaps Bachar Houli

[Presto]

I think that Richmond has one of the easier draws: they double up with CAR, ESS, FRE, MEL, POR. It is difficult in the first half, but not a horror draw.
Your team (Collingwood) and mine (Hawthorn) have what could be caledl a horror draw. But that is what you expect from top teams.
Collingwood doubles up on the other four top five sides.
Hawthorn is the only team that play both Grand finalists twice

Deledio is in my pre-NAB team. The difficult start means that I expect the ball will be in his vicinity more often.
Martin is another on my radar
Nahas was another that I considered and rejected
Too early to consider rookies cash cows

[Adamant]

Yeah will start with Deledio, Ellis but Martin and Houli will be upgrade targets

Very true its not a Horror draw like ours exactly as you say just tough "for the tigers" in the first 11 compared to the last 11.

Seen a lot about it being a tough draw but your right it aint that tough maybe just for the "at times" struggling tigers.

Our teams are still finishing 1-2 IMO :)

How could u not start with Martin? He will avg 90+ easily this year... I dont think u will get him much cheaper. I cant see many (maybe StevieJ & Buddy) other FWDS averaging more than that.

I guess the biggest concern is having to many Tigers players...

Martin will undoubtedly get a fair bit more attention than last year. This coupled with his tough draw will see a little dip in scoring imo.
In saying this I'll probably have him come round 1 :P
