What do people think of Scrimshaw given the above?

If we were waiting for teams I would still pick him if named, but seems pretty risky locking him in on Wednesday now.

Could boot a mid premo and bring Whitfield in. Seems more likely now that we get enough MID rookies than DEF.
Is Wilkie an option or just as up in the air as Scrimshaw?

Bump:

Here's an XvYvZvAA for the last few spots. Not sure how easy it is to turn it into a poll, or if it's worth it.

Whitfield, Treloar & Dusty
v
Witherden, Macrae & Dusty (currently 2 votes)
v
Witherden, Treloar & Merrett (1 vote)
v
Whitfield, Treloar & Steele (2 votes)
Option 4

They gave him good TOG in both games and he scored nicely, which indicates to me that he’s a preferred option (subject to anyone returning from injury) and that he can play out games and perform reasonably well doing so (albeit he may have been making it look hard?).

Personally I think he will likely be selected and be a good pick.

For this comp, if there’s another rookie or rookie/premium swap that looks both appealing and safer, I’m okay with that. If it feels quite compromised, I’d probably keep him.

More broadly, my main comment is that you should feel free to exercise your powers as needed! You still have two more sides to lock in ?

Alright, here's our locked starting team. I won't be all Italian Nonna and apologise for the terrible meal I've cooked. Thankfully we have plenty of trades for rookie corrections. I've leant more towards the birds in the hand than the ones I might pick if I knew they were named.

I think it would be good if people commented here to let us know that you've set your team up. Good luck all!

Thanks for all your work Stephen - the team looks great!

I’ve tagged everyone so that hopefully nobody misses the post!

Don’t forget to set:
C = Danger
VC = Treloar
E = Hore, Scott, Smith, Balta

Locked in, thanks :cool:

I go to $41k cash left over, for what it's worth - hopefully this matches as well!

I can vouch for the app ... downloaded it and set my whole team in about the time it would have taken to do one line on the website.

Love it guys. Although I didn't join I'll be watching you all from sidelines.
There’s a group you can join if you missed out on the league. It really just depends on if you wanted to set your own personal team or run with our comp.

Code is DZRMRUED if you or anyone else is interested.

I’m set as well - $41k exactly left Danger C and same Es.

Would be great if everyone can respond with confirmation before the game tomorrow

Think I’m set too. Will double check on the laptop tomorrow morning.
Good idea to double check. I could have sworn that I set it correctly earlier, but I just double checked and three of my E’s disappeared! :unsure:

All good now ... I hope!

Just thinking out aloud here and apologies if it's been discussed.

If Scrimshaw and Hore are both not named, are we copping a donut or switching to players who were named? I understand this may cause some issues but i don't think anyone is keen to cop a zero if we don't have to.
