Here's an interesting one...

Kade Kolodjashnij vs. Zac Merrett (As a D4 or F4) ???? :confused:
This is probably the closest X v Y I've seen. Right up there with S Martin v Nic Nat.

I actually think they are both primed for breakout seasons so I can't decide!

I have both.

Cheers mate, yeah I know. It's an extremely difficult one to split, and tbh would like to have both but think I'd be better served sticking with the structure and current players I already have. Thus can probably only take one of them.

Both have potential and both have question around their role and respective teams.
Merrett by a nose for me as he will probably end up in the guts, Im not sure what will happen with KK with all of the GC injured players coming back in.

JPK and a fit Jelwood, if Jelwood isn't fit enough for round 1 then Sloane.

If you would like to be a bit different, Priddis and T. Mitchell. Priddis, Mr. 110 every week, Mitchell, see ball get ball..could be anything.

JPK and Selwood if fit, otherwise Sloane.

Good luck with BBL!

Laird and Deledio for me I reckon.
Have locked in Laird since the day it opened.
Lids will be top 2 forwards (with Dusty), just need him to get through the year un-injured.

I have the Shaw and Barlow combo at the minute in my draft.

Would you consider the slightly cheaper combo in McVeigh and Barlow?

And now for my RUCKS...LOL!

1. Goldy & Martin giving me a 4-0-4 and 4-0-4 structures in DEF and FWS respectively

2. Goldy & Lobbe enabling me to add an extra premium either in DEF or FWD

Current structure for MID is 5-1-5; the 1 being a Libba/BCrouch/JOM type.

Please Note: I have slightly lower standards (with regards to their price) for my 'Keepers' in their respective position as compared to Jurn Stern.

I prefer the Goldy and Lobbe setup.

For me option 1, that's the RUC structure I am going with, and like the 4-0-4 in both DEF and FWD.

Thanks guys for the quick feedback...something for me to ponder over the ensuing weeks before SC officially opens.

I'm pretty happy and content with my current structure and just wanted to see how different combinations of players would look on paper. Of particular interest is to see whether I can add an extra premium by downgrading one of my rucks to a more 'value' selection. I must confess that the first 2 players I selected after the release of players pricing were my R1 & R2!

What about throwing in Armitage the mix, potentially for M3? Does that change any decisions or was last year just an outstanding year not to be repeated? Some MASSIVE scores there...
