Hambling is not a floating donut, he is just a donut as no DPP attributes
Goddard can only be a floating donut if you have a DPP F/D on the other end.
I have Adam Saad (M/D) in MID and thus my floating donut will be D/M in DEF to take McIntosh score and I will floating this donut every week.
Neither as they don't float!!! Goddard needs a friend in D/F to float otherwise simply a donut...
YOU MISSING THE FLOATING PART OF THE DONUT.

That makes me feel better hearing that from you Jay
I also planned to have a FD (As I already have all other DEF rookies playing).

Just to clarify:
Agree Rowsus - would never pick a zero player to get McIntosh score
However, if you have a Floating Donut paired with someone then it's acceptable as it would have been part of your plans.
Therefore, my view (and only my view is) that FD is either Adamson(wce), McKenzie (stk), Maynard (col) etc who are DEF/MID and more importantly, you must have planned to have another player on the opposite end such as Adam Saad
Even if Adam Saad wears the Red Vest he will stay in my team in the mid on the bench with expectation next week.
Adam Saad has always been in my plans with FD since coach said Miller and Saad will debut.

Not going to argue with your Jay - if it is in your plans for the season, then why not donut up! My experience last year wasn't about that, it was about getting a rookie 100 in the first week and it impacted me for the rest of the season 
Adamson* - McIntosh (EMG)
Saad*
then Adamson (for example) and Saad will floating around with MID/DEF to safeguard D6 like Bad Boys (Will Smith & Martin Lawrence) for the rest of the year.....
Heeny, Miller, Vandenburg, E-y if named.
Wont die wondering here. Miller kicks off first, if he's not sub he's taking the field. Will do the same when every game shows there final teams and subs.
If lamb is starting on field i might be temped to play him over clark tbh. No easy feat comming up against the hawks backline after not playing the real deal for so long.

Running with a floating donut as well but was running one regardless of what McIntosh scored. He won't float for the time being cos i've gone light down back and heavy in the mids but expect to utilise DPP when trading.
409/5 for me
Maric, Cripps, Martin, McIntosh, Simpson
One of my few PODs in Maric underwhelmed so hoping there's not too much damage done by NicNat/Berger.

I've never been one to go for the deliberate donuts, the closest I've gone this year is my ruck bench. I just tried trading in Maynard to link with Saad to create a floating rookie, but it just felt wrong, even though it meant I'd get McIntosh's score.
I like having a full side for round 1. I know rookies will be in and out, and players get injured, so it won't remain that way through the year, but at least at the start I have a 100% start rate (excluding the ruck bench).

For me, it's about any small edge you can get early. So if the masses are on him which i suspect they were and most would be starting him, if he spuds it up or goes down, gets subbed there's a 20-50 pt gain. In hindsight thought, it would've been better to start Cripps and Martin (sic) on the pine as well lol.
Yeah the arguments against a floating donut are pretty clear but i like having a second look at backline rookie scores (i've got 5 of them) and feel pretty comfortable with my rookie choices elsewhere that cash generation won't be a problem. As long as you've got a Plan B with where you've backed your rookies in, i think that's the main thing. If Saad/Oxley are both named sub then i'll need to change my structure whcih i've planned for.

Oh boy feeling a bit gutted so have come to the box to unburden myself
On the way to match got my son to check on his fancy dancey mobile that Lambert wasn't slotted in to the side. Nah all good then. Watching match having fun and thinking yep glad I put young Hunt into my SC side, been sitting there for a while now.
Get home pull up my side and instead of Hunt and joy, I have Gary bloomin Rohan staring me in the face (insert crying smiley). I cannot believe how this happened. I reckon the Chinese have hacked my computer.
I had quickly tinkered with Maric (but chose to leave him out) and my side just before leaving home and must have done it then ...
Gary R. my boy time to step up big time; I almost feel I can't take the little bugger out of my side now as this could be divine intervention and events are no longer under my control.
mmm, for some reason confessing my sin hasn't really helped, and this is just the beginning, haha oh well bring it on. Cheers.

I'll be honest that has happened to me as well but on my laptop but I thought I just strolled down a bit more. I assume Taylor Hunt and Rohan are priced similarly? I had some randoms in my team but could be the mouse playing funny buggers.
