Ask Jayman

[Blairholt]

Hi jayman, my forward line is Franklin, _________, Martin, Rockliff, Karnezsis and maccaffer.
I have 535k to spend on a forward.. Any ideas? Thanks mate

[Jay]

Should we keep Brad Crouch or trade him to a playing rookie?

Trade him to a rookie. I am going Matt Jones :)

[Jay]

Hey Jay,

My midfield premiums at the moment are: Ablett, Pendlebury, JPK and Deledio

Does that look alright/strong enough?

Looks good, would prefer Cotchin to Lids though - higher ceiling.

Who is your M5? Would consider someone like Daniel Rich, Trav Boak, Nat Fyfe, Dave Mundy or Dan Hanneberry

So you just miss out on Tex? Damn...

I'd go Zorko!

Yo Jay,

Crouch down.

So your thoughts on Hrovat?

Cheers in advance.

Can't see him playing tbh.

I'm gonna bank on a rookie playing next week e.g. Jones, Kent or someone else :-\

[tor01doc]

Hill, Stevens, Lucas, Goodes, Vlastiun, Viney, Jones, O'Meara, Wines, Colquhoun Mitchell x2, Whitfield, Toumpas, Anderson, Blicavs -  got to be a few who get games.

Yeah and I bet they are better than Kommer!

[My Chumps]

I'm beginning to panic Jay! :P

First of all, I need another premium forward. Already have Rocky, Hawkins, Dusty and Cox in the rucks, and can't afford Buddy :(
Who would you pick?

and secondly,
which option!

Back rookie (probably Luke Brown), the forward you've suggested above and Cox playing in the rucks

or

Bilcavs/Currie starting, Jack Grimes and Cox playing up front.

I hope that made some type of sense :P

Cheers man.

ZORKO

combo wise, I would take, Browny, Zorks and Cox in the rucks

[My Chumps]

Thanks man!
You're a champ :)

[hi fyfe]

Jayman, pick one

Fyfe, mundy, rich, Shuey, Scooter

Hey Jayman,

Have loved your advice in the past, cheers.

I have one more question before Thursday.

Mids I have GAJ and Danger.  Locked in Fyfe and Mundy last night.  Swallow, Rich, and Moloney have all had excellent pre seasons, so that leaves me with Moloney at M7, and only 3 mid rookies. 

I have Wines, Mitchell and O'Meara. 

Have looked at Kent and Viney also, but not sold on Viney yet.

Who do you consider the must have rookies in the mids, the ones you just can't pass up, in other words the potential Michael Barlow type from 2009 that became a rookie priced keeper.

The three must haves are Ollie Wines, Jaeger O'Meara and Kane Mitchell (just beats Vinet)

I have a problem with your strategy though. Think you need 4 mid rookies MINIMUM as they are the ones which generate the most cash. You may struggle to upgrade with only 3 mid rooks

Yeah good point Jayman.  I did have 4 rookies but dropped Crouch when he didn't get named.  I was looking at either Fyfe or Mundy, but in the end went both.  Still like GAJ, Swallow, Rich and Moloney.  The last 3 I think represent value, and GAJ a must have captain, so tough choice if I have to drop one.  But I agree with what you say.

Good to hear that I'm on the money with the 3 rookies I've chosen.  I will consider a 4th, but it means probably dropping GAJ, and then picking him up early in the season, which is not ideal, but an option I guess.

Cheers jayman.
Your advice is excellent.
