Ask Q: Panic Saturday (24/3/12)

[Master Q]

Option 1: Pav + $250K mid (parker, winderlich, wingard +$100K in the bank)

Option 2: $220K fwd (porps, rookie +$120K) + Jobe Watson

Option 3: Fwd rookie + Super premium mid (Mitchell/Selwood/Thompson)

Complicated I know...

1 & 3 are pretty much the same. Pav and Wingard is a strong move but if your Midfield needs a boost Selwood is a strong option.

Sorry Q, but I'm going to add a comment here.

IMO Dickson and Hall are both legitimate options - more so than Kerridge (vests) / Smedts (not best 22) / Walsh (DT black hole) / Zorko (injured).
Dickson - was drafted as a (smallish) key forward who can run through the middle and will should games early;
Hall - mature (but short) forward who will add a sorely needed big body to the Suns forward line.

Again, apologies Q.

That's fine  ;)
I just hadn't heard much about them (hence: Errrrr? Why are you considering them...)

Sorry to sound like an arse here, but perhaps just say that?  :-\

Sounds like the backs coach is eyeing off the veteran coach's job, watch your back Mick... I mean Master Q

Your answer was "Errr... Why are you considering them?" and then you suggested Kerridge - a player who has been the go to green vester for the Crows - followed by 3 guys (Smedts/Walsh/Zorko) wha are, at this stage, less attractive options than either Hall or Dickson!

This is definitely a useful thread  ;D and good on you for volunteering your time (which I just gave you a cheer for) but you should just tell people when you're not sure.

Heehee. I don't have the patience!

lake vs hargrave, i can afford both. purley on scoring potential throughout the whole year and keeper status

[essendon2]

Should I start James Magner or James McDonald in position M6 and why?

I suggested them because I know something about them. I do tell people when I'm not sure,I was asking him why he was considering those players - Not telling him to not pick them.

It is hard to hear a tone of voice over the internet! If you get what I mean  ;)

My gut says Lake.

Should I start James Magner or James McDonald in position M6 and why?

Depends on your other Midfielders but McDonald has been named so obviously he is a lot safer. If you do choose to put McDonald on the pine, give him the E.

[Chelskiman]

Which two back rookies should I start; Ellis, Morris, Bugg, Clarke?

Which two mid rookies should I start; McDonald, Shiel, Kennedy, Magner

Which three rookie forwards should I start; Smith, Pfeiffer, Hall, Dickson, Couch?

1. Bugg he's playing. And probably Ellis.

2. Shiel and Magner. McDonald Emergency.

3. I don't think Couch will be named. Smith and then wait till more teams are out.

[ENYGMA]

Thoughts on these players/versus : Please try to suggest alternatives from the same price range give or take. Also if you suggest alternatives please place them in ranking order.
 
Golby vs Lake?

Is marty clarke a lock? If so who should I replace out of Morris and Bugg for him

Jelwood vs Rockliff

Ledger vs Coniglio vs any other rook defender (besides DPPs, Mac, Magner & Shiel)

Cox vs Mumford (worth the cost?)

Decided to go 1 premo 3 rook ruck. Is there are better option at R4 than  big O? Is longer worth it?

Best non GWS forward rooks besides Hall and Couch currently (tempted to go Couch> Dickson)

Thanks heaps to Q or any other experienced DT guru

Peace ;D

[elephants]

Hey Q, love your work as always.

Bugg vs Morris vs Ellis (for one spot)

Magner vs McDonald vs Coniglio vs Shiel (for two spots)

Giles vs Redden (for on spot)

Thanks!!

hey Q, bending the back for the members as usual

thoughts on Shiel getting subbed off to-night?
