Redden to Thompson with a few rookie swaps etc.

Taken a few risks that I like. Just have to watch Nab cup form on a couple but looking fairly strong. Mids and rucks looking really good, just have to check out the form of the mid pricers come the next couple of weeks, especially seeing you have a few

MC · February 17, 2012, 10:34:51 PM

Yeah, spot on. It's so hard choosing WHICH mid-pricers... There are so many that I've considered and keep swapping in and out.

Zaha, Lake, Porp, Nroo, even Cotchin...

Bennyy · February 17, 2012, 10:53:11 PM

Yeah spot on. We are all in the same boat really. Yeah Nick Roo, Johno brown could be huge! Lake, Zaha, Hayes you know so many options. Judge it and go with your gut!

patch is the only problem for me

MC · February 17, 2012, 11:08:04 PM

Well i've decided to take a risk with him - he's been locked for weeks.
Why do you have a problem? He's got huge potential, and with Harvey set to drop forward more often, he'll likely see an increase in points. Should go 100+ in the forwards, which is premium level.

Capper · February 17, 2012, 11:23:05 PM

got concussion tonight, but will still play next week.

Could be a unique, good luck

MC · February 18, 2012, 01:03:41 PM

Cheers mate, have tried hard to cater for the byes, but realise that many of my rookies will have been cashed in by rd 12 anyhow. No more than 3 bye-sharing prems across all lines until after the byes for me.

BillyBass · February 18, 2012, 01:08:16 PM

Morabito is still in the rehab group, won't play early in the season.

MC · February 18, 2012, 01:29:00 PM

Ah yeah, I think I heard that, cheers.

Any suggestions for a replacement? Not sure about Wingard, he's a gun but apparently won't be playing full games, subs vest could be his...

Do not how much cash you have left so comments are based on minimal cash availability. Morabito will be a possible late start to season so look at replacing with another rook based on NAB cup.
I had Adams on my radar for quite a period and then cooled.

7/10 for this team. Good luck.

Madmax75 · February 18, 2012, 04:30:45 PM

Thanks for rating mine. In my humble opinion:

B Like the Birchall pick had him last year and so consistent never lets you down except for when the Pies targetted him in the first Haws Pies game. Dont like the Johncock pick maybe go for Broughton if hes in the mid rotation.
C Good prems and like the differential of the Redden pick. Not sure about Morabito but could be worth the risk.
R Spot on
F Bit too mid priced for my liking but maybe this is the year for that strategy against the tried and true prems/rookies one.
Overall not the team ill be picking but each to their own.
7.5/10 with points off for Defence and Forwards (maybe a gun short) but rucks as said great and Mids almost.

Good luck!

imo dont like hanley as D4 when you only have 3 prem mids

Colliwobblers · February 18, 2012, 07:36:07 PM

i like it it is unique but a little strong fwd and def and a little week in the mid, only concern is the points you will lose each week to the opponents 4th gun premium, could be a LOT, where it might not be many more danger and grimes earn over a rookie to make up for it, but then it could work in your favour also.

still best rooks are mid rooks so its a good strategy and you should come home stronger than you start out, good you got rid of morabito coniglio or wingard would have been better for premium type rooks / sure things, even caddy for 200k
