E2's Final Preparations

[essendon2]

Redden (110) + Mayes (65) = 175

Embley (82) + Cloke (96) = 178


Pretty damn close but option 2 also has the added benefit that both will play week in week out

+1
and I don't want all three of Mayes, Macaffer and Neade!

[essendon2]

Tambling + Embley + McEvoy + Martin

vs

DEF Rook + Cotchin + Cox + Mayes

[Adamant]

Tambling + Embley + McEvoy + Martin

vs

DEF Rook + Cotchin + Cox + Mayes

Tambling (61, not a fan) + Embley (86) + McEvoy (92) + Martin (92)

vs

DEF Rook (60-65)+ Cotchin (113) + Cox (102) + Mayes (67)

Can't be bothered working out the totals, but option 2 for me.

I really like it E2, I like the structure of only 3 premo backs,

Like the inclusion or Karnezis and Moloney but not sure on Cloke,still a while yet but,

Solid Stuff!!

[Windigo]

Not sold on Cloke at all. I'd rather a cheaper option and upgrade Bull to a premo.

Also, 3 lions FWDs?  :-\

thanks mate, after Cloke's below par (too much credit) performance yesterday,
this is what my team now looks like

Lions have a very easy run... Zorko + Rocky both play MID, whereas Karnezis (one of the first to get him  8)) is a winger/high HF'er - yes 3 Lions FWD's... but 2 are MIDs anyway,  ::)

How much $$$ left with the newest team?

BACKLINE TOO WEAK

17k

BACKLINE TOO WEAK

hm I seriously don't think it is... Hartlett can average 95+ in the right role and Vlastuin looks to be an absolute star-in-the-making  8)

[Jukes]

Backline is good, don't worry. 3/4 premiums is standard, what you don't have down back you have in the midfield and/or forward line.

If you have the cash left I'd go Dys Heppell over HH (I have both).

[Adamant]

Really like this side E2, very strong overall.

Backline isn't too weak at all. Most people will be running with the 3 premo backline and with quality rooks back there, why not? Really like Hartlett and considering him as my 3rd and final back premo as well.

The midfield is faultless, very similar to mine. I've gone with Boyd over Beams for safety, but Beamsy could push 120+ easily.

Not a fan of Mummy tbh, I'm pretty sure he is missing the rest of NAB with bone bruising? either way, not my cup of tea. Would definitely prefer big boy McEvoy here.

Forward line is looking pretty damn strong too. Zorko, Rocky and Robbo will all be in the top 6 forwards comfortably, still not entirely sold on Dusty, but still seriously considering him myself. If he can finish off games better, he'll push the 95 mark easy. Karnezis could be solid I suppose.

Nice work.

[Windigo]

Mummy won't be play NAB. And I'd agree with TABs stating that he won't play until round 2.

We have the same backline, near identical midfield & fwd line...

Cloke at F5 a masterstroke...F4 for me.. :'(
