Okay lads. I have a predicament.

Can't decide on the combo above, help us out ;D

Currently have option 2. Note that doing option 1 leaves me with 3 round 12 midfield premiums in Swan, Selwood and Pendles.

Also lads if you vote option 2 can you help me on Joel Selwood vs Scott Pendlebury? Thanks!

i havent voted yet due to needing this question first, if i vote rowe option does that mean giles or stephensen will start and he will be on the bench? i assume so.

Also having three premo in one bye round doesnt matter just means 1 of the three will be one of your 2 compulsory donuts over the bye rounds (2 compulsory donuts without dpp ruck) until someone proves otherwise :)

Any team with pendles and roo is a good sign!

Bones Bombers

Hmm its a tough one LE!

Id go Rowe-Pendles-NRoo

There is the opportunity to choose a ruck upgrade when we see who is in best form this season. However Pendles may drop in price a bit so you could get him cheaper, but then you're saving a trade. NRoo should have a better year, think he is still a star.

bundyboy

option 2 - just because I still have a man crush on Pendles from last year...+ agree - Roo should only be better...

elephants

Oh SH!T. I messed up. Riewoldt and Christensen should be switched. I'll change the poll and reset the vote count. Thanks and sorry guys!

The F.A.R.K.

alright personally id take

selwood, jarrad redden (he is gonna play i have changed my view) and dangerfield. Rowe is injured atm, danger is a gun and selwood would have had best average but got knocked out in first quarter.

#7
I also believe that this is Dangermouses year but I have been burnt by him in the past...

I already have Selwood as you'll see in my first post.

I can't afford that by about 30k FARK. 310k for a mid :( Thinking I'll leave Pendles and upggrade to him...

The F.A.R.K.

believe me everything has been about him in the papers, on the news on the radio sa cant get enough of the dangermouse. I dont think many people realise he is still only 21 seriously that is incredibly young for a footballer. He has 50+ games experience and is now in the leadership group and is still only 21. Add to that he has been training with mids all year, stripped 1kg of fat off his frame and added 4kg of muscle and has picked up his speed and defensive pressure work. I dont see a reason not to pick him. Oh wait add to that crows easy fixture and you could almost lock him in and throw away the key

It is a bit hard to say I have been burnt by him in the past when he was only 19 like cmon rookies coming into the system can be 21 and still not really considered mature age

Hmm i'll do some stat reading mate. PM this sh!t ;)

forget the OM post the dirt :)

there was a lot of hype about dangerfield last season before we got started too if i remember?

tho i do rate him, not for DT just for SC he just doesnt accumulate enough uncontested possessions.

He is set for a break out year, last season he was #1 in all mids / midfwds for uncontested possessions but he is HOPELESS at uncontested possessions, which doesnt make him bad it just STOPS him from cracking into the elite level of fantasy footy.

The F.A.R.K.

ive seen danger at the beach a few times and he is huge compared to last year the big thing for adelaide this year will be the muscle they put on everyone has put on excess of 3kg at least. This will not only help fwds and back but the mids with shrugging tackles and defenders and in conested possesions. I disagree with you colliwoblers the reason he doesnt get many uncontested is because he has been used up foward but he is going to be spending stacks in mids so more possesions all round. That is all the dirt i can give you the rest is reserved for pm's with ele

Colliwobblers

fair enough freako says get on him anyway, as i said i won't for DT but on the radar for SC. I am all over the bulking up the Crows have done too it is well documented, have seen sloane and vb and porps looks good and the shoulder has "been taking hits in training and is fine", biggest muscle gain so far tho would be mackay? also could break out if given opportunity, same with vince. walker set for a big year jacobs thomo . The crows could play finals this season if everyone that should improve does.

sledgey7

you didn't clarify wether or not that would make rowe your number 2 ruck?

sledgey7

i've never been a fan of starting without 2 recognised rucks. so i'd have to go the other option.
