Back again !

DEF: J. McVeigh, K. Simpson, D. Swallow, M. Suckling, M. Fuller, D. Gardiner (J. Battersby, A. Georgiou)
MID: G. Ablett jnr, R. Griffen, T. Cotchin, S. Selwood, D. Beams, V. Michie, L. Dunstan, A. Morabito (J. O'Rourke, L. Taylor)
RUC: T. Goldstein, N. Naitanui (F. Thurlow, T. Nankervis)
FWD: P. Dangerfield, D. Martin, T. Cloke, L. Franklin, B. Lennon, S. Kersten (B. Brown, D. Garlett)

I'm going to leave Pendles, if you look at his first 5-6 matches he has the best tagging teams. Crowley etc. I think I'll look at him as my first upgrade. If my rookies don't get enough game time I can just do something like Griffen - Thomas and then use the cash to make sure I have all starting rookies come rd 1. Thanks heaps.

Buddy as far as I can tell you have gone Pendles/Grimes -> Griffin/Swallow and that doesn't make a lot of sense to me! like the first team better, still not a massive fan of your backline everything else is good

Mid: S.Pendlebury, J.Selwood, T.Cotchin, D.Beams, J.Martin, D.Tyson, V.Michie, L.Dunstan (J.Polec, J.O'Rourke)
Ruc: S.Mumford, A.Sandilands (F.Thurlow, T.Nankervis)
Fwd: P.Dangerfield, D.Martin, L.Franklin, L.Parker, T.Menzel, L.Taylor (S.Kersten, D.Garlett)
$26,600

Cheers

DEF: Good, 3 premo's plus swallow and Suckling. 8/10

MID: Little light here as I am sure you are aware, your player selection however is good 7/10

RUC: Mummy should do well if he can stay on the park, standard set up. 8/10

FWD: Like the line, Parker is a good pick and Menzel will be a good player, not sure if it will be this year though 8/10

OVR: 31/40 - It is a solid team with no real faults at all, my only criticism is you seem to be a player down in the middle. nearly all teams are playing just 3 rookies while you are playing 4, which in itself I have no problem with, except you don't seem to have picked up a player in another position. You could argue that it means your Premo selections are quite high end, but you are fielding 6 rookies on the field while a lot of the better teams going around are fielding 5. Just something to think about. Best of luck

Okay here's mine - Thanks....

Cheers mate!

I've seen most of the teams are fielding 6 rookies and the ones fielding 5 have a lot of somewhat touchy mid pricers eg. Clark, caddy and so on... My thinking behind fielding 4 rookies in the midfield is that they will rise a lot more in cash than rookies in other positions. Another reason is I originally had m.murphy in for one of Tyson or Martin and then Fasolo in for Parker. But I thought about it and I reckon I'd end up trading Murphy out towards the end of the year whereas Parker is a keeper for the forward line. So I ended up choosing this version because conserving trades will be important so I've picked 13 100% keepers. I think Murphy is 50/50 because I can't see him averaging more than 110 for the season. The mids I have I think will average 115+ and I will want to bring in players who will do that aswell from when I bring them in. This is why I don't see Murphy as a keeper to me.

Summary
Reason 1 : more cash rise with rookie mids
Reason 2 : 1 more keeper

Hopefull this is easy to understand!

Yeh mate i totally get you and its the safer option for sure, although you do have your own little midpricer in Menzel. My team has about 12 premos plus another 2 or 3 who 'might' be keepers, so a bit more high risk high reward stuff. Personally I am picking Murph and I intend to keep him, see no reason why he shouldn't go back up to 110, still young and a quality player. Best of luck to you seems like you have it all sorted out

[roti]

Okay here's mine - Thanks....

DEF: Solid, 1 rookie is preferable down back but KK and McDonald might both be good picks so that is fine for now. 7/10

MID: Strong, Good POD in Sloane he is quality and good rooks but you could play sheed on the field, downgrade Kelly and save yourself 100k straight up, wasted 50k on the bench there imo.  8/10

RUC: Good pair, nuff said. 8/10

FWD: Few issues here for me, much prefer Dusty to Wingard, Hawkins is a big gamble but i can see the appeal, Billings I would stay clear from. Expensive, has been injured, not convinced he will play many games and don't think he will score brilliantly early on. 7/10

OVR 30/40 - It's a solid team, I think a few tinkles and you have the makings of quite a good one :)

RUC:

[Fid]

Thanks for your advice mate, yeah tomahawk is a risk but is good value and poss an POD

When you save the team the most expensive are placed on the field hence why Sheed is on the bench.

I do see your point though

Cheers mate I know I have Menzel, I think he is very similar to Wingard and is a must watch!

Good luck to you to! Is your team hanging around I'd love to return the favour! Best of luck too you!

I do see your point though

Yeh don't see the point of having anyone over 130k on the bench. Forgot to actually give you some advice, it would be Kelly > Rookie priced player, Tomahawk> Gunstan
If you want to back in TH though go for it :)

Yeh rate it mate, think its a better balanced side, best of luck

[johnnytheboy1]

Strong teams here even though i don't like 2 rookies on the field in defence.

Def: 3 Strong premiums with the potential premium in suckling if he dosen't get reinjured.
Mids:Sloane is a good choice here i think his scores will rise even further with Vince gone.Other Premiums are strong
Rucks Excellent with Leuey as a goodchoice.
Fwds: Strong here too as long as Clark dosen't break down again

Pretty good team here FID give it an 8/10
Other teams are good too.

TEAM NAME: Dave's Legends
DEF: S. Mitchell, S. Thompson, K. Simpson, D. Swallow, M. Suckling, L. McDonald (D. Gardiner, J. Kolodjashnij)
MID: G. Ablett jnr, S. Pendlebury, T. Rockliff, D. Beams, D. Thomas, C. Beams, D. Sheed, L. Dunstan (M. Crouch, D. Garlett)
RUC: T. Goldstein, M. Leuenberger (R. Lobb, T. Nankervis)
FWD: P. Dangerfield, J. Gunston, M. Pavlich, M. Clark, N. Bock, B. Lennon (M. Honeychurch, J. Impey)
CASH LEFT: $3,300

Obviously gone weak in the forward line, as I don't think there will be enough good rookies in defence (and hence gone stronger there). If a few happen to be named round 1 though, I may drop Swallow for a rookie and turn Clark into Dusty. All rookie selections won't be finalised until teams are named round 1. Cheers mate.

DEF: Good, cannot fault it, like you said you have strengthened it. 8/10

MID: Again, a good line which i cannot fault! 8/10

RUC: Very strong, interesting no Sandi who by all reports is flying. 9/10

FWD: Is'nt the strongest going around mate, you know that though, its up to you whether you think the rest of your side makes up for it. 6/10

OVR: 31/40 Forward line takes away from what otherwise would be a very good side, it still gets a good rating though so it's not a bad side by any means, just looks a little unbalanced for mine
