2014 Predictions

[Holz]

How big are the other comps?

16 and 18.

I like the strength of our teams with 14 teams.  Just worried about the top teams being abit strong.

[Ziplock]

Looking forward to seeing how much my rating changes after the next trade period and the rookie draft Zip :)

haha...

You just have a handful of deficiencies that screw you over :P

[Torpedo10]

I think the Stallions will hover around the 10th-13th mark again TBH, will do some damage in the January trade period! Buddy let us down this season and cost us big time.  :( JPK didn't help either.

You've got to do your damage in january, cause come finals you won't have the chance.



OOOOOOOH SNAPPPPP.

:P

Just looking through the lineups at present and my big prediction is that the Trolls will challenge for top 4. Adamant has done a stellar job rebuilding one of the worst lists in the comp, and now probably only lacks depth in becoming a real challenger. 

Got a feeling that DPP changes have ruined Sweden's chances of going back to back...

Dane Swan gives us a 20ppg increase in our mids

Any points lost in forward DPP is negligent due to points gained having Swan.

negligible*

although, I suppose negligent could be applicable :P

was that 20ppg including captaincy bonus?

from dpp changes you've lost lets say, a 95 forward who you have to replace with a Bock, Gia, Staker
you also have to field jvoldt over a 90 average forward, although that's offset by having bartel in the backs.

so you've lost 25ppg in the fwds and gained 20ppg in the mids (unless you've neglected to count the captain bonus, in which case you're ahead).

the biggest issue is a lack of depth in your forward line. If Nvoldt goes down, it's really going to hurt.

[Nails]

oops, that was a stupid typo/brain fart.

You also have to remember there's still an active trade period ;)

Bock will be back to a 90 average player this season anyway.

[Ziplock]

Bock has never averaged 90 :P

[Vinny]

damn that's SC :(

[Nails]

Bock back to 87 average then #goodenough

We'll work something out and put ourselves back in contention.

[Ziplock]

So you hope he's going to repeat his 09 season?

i think hoping he gets games might be more realistic.

[elephants]

Yeah Bock is a fossil and has been out of the game for two years. Would be doing well to get 2 possesions in the NEAFL atm.

[Holz]

Serbia has just bolstered its team with another trade soon to be posted. Last year my weakness was the forward line and it cost me the grandfinal.

i think i have sorted that now.

Goddard Gibbs hurt my backline but im adding in Simpson + ????? which should almost replace those 2.

my other weak line in terms of depth was my midfield.
