Back Rookies

[Dayze]

Are people going to scrap Webster if 3 or 4 rookies are named?
That extra cash sure would b handy

Depends on how secure those 4 rookies spots are. If 1 or 2 plays a couple of games then see-ya later what then? There's no one to downgrade to cos u probably have all the available rookies already?

Conversely if Webster goes down or is an epic fail then u can downgrade to a rookie u may have missed.

No. He's locked.

Got a good fantasy score last practice game v GWS. Anyone know wat posi he played.

Sorry was asking about jaensch.
Any ideas wat posi he played. I think he had some mid time?

Why is there all of a sudden so much love for Webster?

Is everyone getting carried away because of his NAB scores? Against the Doggies and GWS?

I'm not saying his a bad pick, I'm just wondering why all of a sudden his such a good pick?

I'm thinking of now running Suckling and McDonald at D4/5 because I reckon there will be 3 rookies quite easily who play early games

Langford, Langdon, Clurey and Georgiou/Cameron are all high chances to get games IMO. 4 of them plus McDonald, just need at least 2 of them to play each week.

Mate a lot of us would like to do that. I still think there is too much uncertainty with back rookies. Like I said earlier what if say Georgiou and Clurey play a few games then nothing for ages? It's happened before. Then u've got McDonald at D5 who has never played AFL and could get vested or even rested/rotated
That's part of the appeal of Webster with extra JS. Plus I only found out how cheap he was just recently!

I know Hinkley mentioned Clurey to some extent but would he get games in front of Trengove, Carlile, Jonas and Hombsch. And if so how many. Has Georgio been upgraded yet and does he play when Garland comes back in. Just playing devils advocate as i would also like to pick them  but their JS is shaky imo.

Yeah fair points boys. Getting named rd1 is one thing, but stringing games together is another

Maybe Suckers, Webster, McDonald at F4-6 with two rookies on the bench is the safest and most sensible option

Wish Webster wasn't all the rage though. I mentioned to you weeks ago RD that there was a certain St Kilda player i had my eye on which you guessed ;)

Ahh so I was right with that guess?

Now I am playing around with putting Webster in my team, geeez everything a mess, too much tweaking!

Yep, i think he shall fill the hole Dal Santo left nicely.

Yep already have. 3 cheap rookies from D6-D8

[Doggoneit]

IMO

Webster is not a bad option - I downgraded to him last year - I watched his 2nd game , scored around 85 I think, but showed he has a bit of "class" - didn't turn out to be the best downgrade but I still rate him.

I also think Suckling could struggle to get back to his best - most players coming back from knees take a little while.

So if you need the cash and have Suckling at D5 or D6,  I think Suckling to Webster is a good downgrade for what I think will be similar points output and better cash generation

Is anyone else getting overwhelmed by all the rookies that are looking like play round 1  :o

Mcdonald, Martin, Langford, Langdon, Cameron, Clurey and Georgiou all look like lining up for round 1! Not saying many have JS but picking 3-4 of these guys could prove difficult!

Who would have thought that 2 months ago i'd say that!
