Discussion Rookie Discussion

[Zagbag]

If what I've been told from a reliable source for Bombers info Clarke won't be playing. So have your Plan B at least ready to go.

Oh no.

Oh no.

R2 gone already Zagbag?

 

[aj74]

Taking Clarke as a DTP. I don't want to spend the $40k elsewhere

R3, but a kick in the nuts nonetheless.

 

[Uncle Drew]

i would imagine he will play the same role as last season. the extra addition to moore duties is he will take the kick in's. he also been included in the leadership. i am not sure if he will be used to play on 2nd or 3rd best defender. he seems to be fit at this point in time however it is also worth noting there were a couple of games last season that he wasnt able to complete.

in terms of sc i think he is better used in the forward line as the rookies dont look great. if you are running with 4 premo or 3 premo 1 mid pricer in the forward line, i dont think his needed. if you are running with 3 premo forward line and the rest is rookies i think he is worth a go.

I actually have him in defense, I like pairing him with Burgess so I can cover both lines. My thinking is if I'm picking Burgess I'm only picking him in place of a similar poor scoring rookie, and all of them are in the fwd line. So Burgess takes the place of Petrucelle/Parker in the fwd line and Moore ends up in the back line by default. Obviously I can switch them whenever I want but currently happier with Drew (F6) on field than Duursma or Hore (def bench).

A Don't Touch Please?

Yeah me too

Hately and his tonsillitis throws a spanner in the works... cut Gibbons last night but now he is back in. It will be a mad scramble once teams are named. Would like to turn Gibbons into Atkins/Constable or could even start Hately if he’s named as an expensive donut to loop rookie scores

Don't forget it is a rolling lockout so really only players from the Blues and Tigers matter tonight

Thoughts on Scrimmers GG? In your team?

Well that's a shame ☹

Yep fully aware of the rolling lockout but Gibbons is playing tonight and I do not want to pick Bewley/Hately ahead of gibbons if they end up not being named.

 

[Tranterpants]

I’m at pick 5 of:
Cousins, Walsh, Butters, Scott, Atkins, Constable
Currently in that order with 2 on field

BALTA!

 

[anfa18]

BALTA!

Solid start by the young fella.

 

[Hondo]

Solid start by the young fella.

And that was all she wrote as it turned out

But of a sobering night all round on the rookies just to remind us why we don’t want too many on field

 

[Goodie's Guns]

Possibly a bit late to the party with the reply but yep he's in my side.

I would consider promoting Constable, averaged the highest PPG of the rookies in JLT I believe.

 

[Juzzo]

Atkins v Constable

Atkins v Constable

Atkins for JS, Constable for scoring
