Adamant - 2013 Team Thread

Adamant · January 14, 2013, 06:10:18 PM

DEF: B. Goddard, B. Gibbs, D. Stanley, B. Staker, J. Pittard, S. Docherty (D. Terlich, S. Colquhoun)

MID: D. Swan, G. Ablett, M. Boyd, S. Pendlebury, M. Murphy, B. Crouch, J. O'Meara, T. Mitchell (N. Hrovat, J. Viney)

RUC: B. McEvoy, M. Leuenberger (B. Grundy, D. Currie)

FWD: L. Franklin, T. Rockliff, M. Robinson, G. Broughton, C. Sylvia, B. Macaffer (T. Lee, T. Membrey)

CASH LEFT: $30,600

Broughton will be moved down back once the backline cash cows fatten as there aren't many quality rookies in the forward line.

Great looking team mate

Yep, I'm playing around with a couple of structures and with this one (only 3 premo's down back), I'll need the best of the best. Duffman just misses the cut. However, If I decide to go with 4 premo's down back, Duffman is a lock as my 4th.

I've never actually had Fyfe in my team, it was Mundy. ;) But yeah - Fyfe, Mundy, Murphy and Redden are all battling it out for my M5. NAB form will be the decider. Thanks mate.

Stanley is a good unique option, it could pay off. Could set you apart early if Grimes doesn't fire...But then they'd just trade him out if he does. ::)

A good top top 4 mids. I've gone with Beams over Pendles and Boyd should be good for league matches against the more preferred option in Cotchin.

I've gone the opposite to you with 3 premium fwd's & 4 premium backs. I think there good mid pricer's up fwd in which you can utilize.

I see you've identified that with Sylvia. I've had Colin a few times. So frustrating. ::)

Good team here. I'd keep Murphy in the mids. ;)

My quirey is on Danny Stanley playing full games, big ount on him making the 22 each round for me

A team with Swan, Ablett, Boyd, Pendlebury will always go far!

I'm very hesitant on Stanley and Broughton personally but worth the punt. I really like Stevie J and Cox, especially with Naitanui surgery. Not sure your views on them

Danny Stanley is a good unique pick.

+1 - I think he may end up in a few more teams by round one.

Strong looking team though overall.

Cant fault too much, not sold on Sylvia myself and Staker at B4 is a risk, but I can see you need some spread because of your mids.

Ps - Dont think Mitchell will play in the early rounds, has been on a modified PS and there are a few guys in front of him for spots.

Windigo · January 15, 2013, 07:34:21 PM

I agree with S.R on Staker at D4. Would rather see him at F5. :-\

Looking good, but Stanley was a good pick.

Windigo · January 18, 2013, 05:43:53 PM

So was Boyd.

Yeah, thinking of going Broughton back to him, but will leave it as it is for now.

Boyd is a jet, and I like him as a POD, but his average will either stay the same or decline, whereas Murphy and Redden are both on the up. Not sure where I can squeeze him in, any suggestions?

Windigo · January 18, 2013, 06:01:04 PM

Haha, well before we had the same mids, only you had Murphy & I had Redden. But I'm rolling with a 3 premium defense and up fwd I have Franklin just to be safe.

How much can change in like 6 months, if I rocked up to a Bulldogs training session this month I don't expect Boyd to have a big dirty grey beard and hobbling around in a walking frame. :P

Same could be said for output he will maintain his average and be a better scorer than Murphy...But Murphy is good value but you get what you pay for with Matt.

I thought you said you'd rather see Staker at F5 instead of D4. ???

Murphy is awesome value at his price, but I guess I have the cash to upgrade him to Boyd.
