Ask Ziplock Pre-season

[Toga]

Swan, Gaj, Cotchin, Pendles, Redden + Rookies

or

Swan, Gaj, Cotchin, Pendles, Toumpas + Rookies?

The $380K would be spent to upgrade say Docherty -> Duffield or Knights -> Premium....

drop cotchin, keep redden and upgrade knights to a premium and docherty to someone like pederson/bock :P

Oh, and would I be crazy to swap Gaj out of the above midfield for S.Selwood/B.Ebert? ::)

yes. Dont do it.

thanks mate. :) good advice!

haha i thought it was a bit crazy but i'd get another like 140K which I could use to buy a def premium... :-X

grundy?

do you plan on using your ruck bench as cover, or as money?

if it's cover, then witts + grundy is the best option.

if you're looking for cash, it's a bit harder... you have to suss out who's going to have better JS between witts/grundy and daw/currie.

atm, I'm leaning towards witts + daw

Howdy Zippy I got a question ;D

Why do you hate Adelaide?

[Ziplock]

because of you.

one eyed supporters piss me off, and you're the most biased supporter on this forum :P

subsequently, to balance out your unnatural love for SA, I have to hate on it.

it's all your fault when it comes down to it. :P

enjoy :P

awesome

[tbagrocks]

That seems reasonable

How about Ward? can he improve his output enough to be viable?

it all comes down to opportunity. I reckon martin or mitchell would be the top scorers, but both need to be elevated first. At the moment, I'm going with Omeara though, since he's almost certain to line up most games, and has good scoring potential.

I've got him pegged at about 105 this year. He's still pretty young, and he trailed off a bit at the end of last year. I think with the emergence of scully (which is my big tip for the year), he wont be copping a tag as often either. Also was suffering from injury a bit last year which hampered his scoring. The tag is probably his biggest concern

105 isn't really high enough to be viable though- this year a 105 average would only have left him around 10th place for mids.

Varcoe, Byrnes or Knights and why?  :P ???

[Ziplock]

Varcoe, Byrnes or Knights and why?  :P ???

I'm going Byrnes. Varcoes always been an average scorer at best, knights role at richmond is a bit uncertain, while byrnes can, and has hit 80+ before, and with more opportunities at melbourne (you dont elevate a traded in player to your leadership group to play vfl), I'd be expecting 75 minimum, which is around where the others top out.
