Ask Ziplock Pre-season

[machoman]

Hey Ziplock, keep up the good work!

Really need some advice-

Beams + Dwyer VS Moloney + Byrnes/Varcoe (I'm scared having Neade and Dwyer on the bench, as it could kill me in the long run, so is it worth getting that forward midpricer in and then having Macaffer and Neade on the bench?)

Longer VS Blicavs

Go Plowman or keep Terlich?

Thanks heaps mate!

[Ziplock]

swan + blicavs as R2
jpk + longer as R2

just traded out swan for jpk, i got like 150k...its INSANE!!!
....maybe im just being moronic in this made time of final hours of lockout lolz

I'd sit with swan- yeah it's a massive chunk of money, but the points you get from it are pretttttty worth it with the captain bonus :P

this week it makes not a big diff, since i get gibbsys solid vice score :P
...logically speaking swan will dip no question and jpk will probs start like a house.....

[Dudge]

Good day Zip, what do u think the difference between Giles and Longers score would roughly be, cheers

honestly, I reckon it's going to be close to 20 ppg

Thanks mate

1. not going to lie, I dont rate byrnes/varcoe that highly. With 2 trades a week I think you should be fine.
2. I see them averaging similiarly(ish) and the extra cash could be reallllly useful
3. I'm going terlich. I can't see plowman getting heaps of back to back games , too much competition for young key backs, and I'm not sold on his scoring potential.

I think he'll be hungry this year, and for more than just pies :P

[pinochio]

Thanks heaps mate! Really appreciate it.
What do you think of Cameron O'Shea as a bench option in the backline? He's 164k, named at CHB for Port this week.

atm I'm running with blicavs at r2 (benching leuen).

I wouldnt do it though unless you're punting on leuen on the bench.

[Tominator]

Dwyer as F8?

And is Blicavs a reliable short-term R2 or should I grab Longer for Leuenberger early on?

ehhhh, I'm not sold on him.

that being said, I've got him atm (since I cant afford anyone else, I only just realised today I didnt have B goodes in my team :'( )

[Adamant]

Is Patton and Neade solid enough forward cover?

[Ziplock]

yeah, it's as good as you can find atm :P

[Windigo]

Is this a viable option Zippy to counter the def rookie problem!?

Longer R2, Keep my 5 premo mids & Koby/Whitfield.

Have a back line like this:

Godd, Gibbs, Russel, Armstrong/Harbrow, Goodes & Pittard (Heath & Stevenson)

:o

Armstrong/Koby

Or

Harbrow/Whitfield

Essentially.
