I'm very excited for the NAB challenge. Awesome concept but shame there is no finals. No Footy fan can complain about 18 nights of footy in a row, though!

Pretty much everyone but will keep a close eye on KK, Luke McDonald and M.Crouch.

Going to be watching Higgins closely. Surely he's in for a good year. He wouldn't burn us again? Right guys?  ::)

Rhyce Shaw , Mathew Buntine, Brodie Martin and Shoey...for D6... :D

Josh Caddy, Jack Watts, David Swallow, Marc Murphy, Dom Tyson, every rookie haha.
But when we saying "watching" its not necessarily about dominating, as some have said NAB Cup can be misleading, as Karnezis did to me last year. I'll be watching for positional stuff, midfield time, as well as fitness and of course touches.

I'd really like to see how Savage fits into the Saints midfield

Like to see Troy Menzel play, alternative too Fasolo, Clark etc. Little bit of Wingard about him

These are a few of the guys I would be watching in the pre-season and who their competition is for a spot

Hurn, D.Swallow, Broadbent, Hansen, Laidler, Claye Beams, Carrots, Viv Michie, Tyson, Ellis, Polec, Longer/Hickey, Dixon, Big Boy, Lobbe, Ryder, Grundy, HMac/Dawson Simpson, Ben Brown, GC starting ruck, Sam Jacobs, Luke Parker, Sam Blease, Kersten, Rohan, Paine, Walker and about 8 other forwards priced between 300k and bargain basement price

For me it's:

Hurn, Swallow, Hansen, Kolodjashnij in defence. (Plus all rookies.)

Midfield, all the rookies. Especially Jack Martin.

Lobbe, Jacobs, HMac.

Buddy, Gunston, Motlop, Higgins, Fasolo, Clark (Plus all rookies.)

I'm looking forward to seeing Viv Michie.  He's been on the cusp for a while now but found it tough to break into the strong Freo line up, but i think he will do very well at the Dees.  I think he only played one game, but looks to be a good player.  Currently in my mids, and ikeen to see his NAB Challenge form to confirm.   

Mat0369

Another one to add in is Toby Greene. He averaged close to 95 in his first season before being thrown around the ground last season to try and develop his defensive side. If he looks to be in the guts at just a bit under 400k he could be a very good option

Ok folks, we have all these players to watch in the NAB challenge but how are those of us who don't have Foxtel planning to watch any games? I am looking into Foxtel on TBox but not sure if I can watch the games yet.
Last year we got a lot of great stats from various sites but it would be great to see the players in action.

Missy Higgins will be the main person I'll be watching. Also will be good to see how Beau Waters is travelling. Could be my smokey.

Any rookies, S Savage, Harley Bennell, players that are discounted and returning from injury, Harley Bennell, Luke Shuey, cheap defenders and Harley Bennell.  Would be surprised if Bennell does not explode out of the starting blocks. I have
8 Rd.8 bye players ATM or otherwise H.B would be in, and it very well may happen anyway. Cheers, did I mention Harley Bennell ??               ;)
