Discussion 2019 'Completed' Team

[Leroy]

Will swap ROB for Grundy next week and then I'm "complete" with two trades left and precious little cover. Put a brick on the throttle, tie up the steering wheel and sit back and hope:

Lloyd, Williams, Crisp, Andrews, Sicily, Logue, Wilkie, Naish
Macrae, JKelly, Fyfe, Cripps, Zerret, Cogs, MCrouch, Brayshaw, Clarke, Hately, Hayes
Gawn, ROB->Grundy, Bines
Dunkley, Danger, Marshall, TKelly, Heeney, Darling, Young, Gardner

Bold for proper premiums, normal text for "wannabe" premiums, Italics for bench and rookies.

 

[Deeman1]

Yep, I'm done for now too, done being the key word . 4 trades and around $20K.

ZWilliams, Laird, LRyan, Stewart, Andrews, BSmith (Logue, Answerth)
Cripps, Merrett, Oliver, Coniglio, Bontempelli, Gaff, Sloane, BCrouch, (Drew, Clarke, Scott)
Gawn, Grundy (Bines)
Danger, Boak, TKelly, Billings, Heeney, JCameron (Young, Gardner)

Holes everywhere, lol, if the rumors are true Cripps will have to go, probably for Neale/Zorko, also sweeting on the big fella...

care to elaborate more and share about the Cripps rumours ?

@Herbie66 totally un-substantiated, heard last week that it could be 10 weeks, but the latest posts in the injuries thread seem more accurate.

Might be best to totally disregard my comment as a throw-away line, sorry.

Nice ins and nice team - no big compromises (Smith, Cameron, Gray, etc) - should continue to improve I'd say.

Missed ROB and Marshall, but as you say I’ve also missed Jezza and Robbie

Cheers for that.

Read a few different things on other sites as well , problem is these days that many post and have opinions no idea what is right or wrong or what to believe.

Basically identical team to me mate, I just have Taranto instead of Merrett and Luke Ryan instead of Stewart. I also have 5 trades left. Very nice.

I’m sure we’ll be in very similar situations for the rest of the season.

 

[manyproblems]

3 Trades left, loophole Logue/Wilkie for the rest of the year. Hopefully Corbett comes back after 6 goals in the NEAFL.

Really tough year, don't think we've ever seen a more expensive mid, fwd and ruck line.

 

[Herbie66]

No way near how I thought it would end up , but oh well it is what it is

D: Stewart , Rich , Laird , Crisp , Logue , Shaw (Milera , Gardner)

M: Cripps , Taranto , Kennedy , Coniglio , Zorko , Pendlebury , Rockliff , Brayshaw (Hately , Clarke , Hayden)

R: Goldstein , Mumford (Bines)

F: Dangerfield , Kelly , Billings , Heeney , Gray , Darling (Westhoff , Setterfield)

2 Trades
$ 14,700.00

Its definitely different Herbie

Its definitely different Herbie

lol
certainly lacking about 15-17 heavy hitters ?

 

[JB16]

9 trades left.

D: Lloyd, Laird, Sicily, Weller, Hore, Logue
M: Macrae, Cripps, Kelly, Neale, Oliver, Treloar, M Crouch, Fiorini
R: Grundy, ROB
F: Dangerfield, Kelly, Dunkley, Heeney, Marshall, Ziebell

Bench: Naish, Rotham, Clarke, Hately, Bewley, Bines, Cameron, Gardner

My obvious hole is Hore/Logue on the field who will become Hurn/Whitfield once they bottom out. ROB to Gawn has always been the plan but is looking less urgent by the week.
Running without Fyfe, Boak and Z Williams as my unique plays mainly due to injury/rest concerns. My bench is a bit weak for my liking too- hoping Rotham/Naish/Cameron sneak some games later on.

My key this year to recovering from 50k after 5 weeks to 6k now has been nailing my POD’s before they go on their runs.
Dunkley, Marshall, Ziebell, ROB and Weller have all done their jobs and hopefully new POD Fiorini can continue that trend.

may have posted prematurely oops. might hold off on Billings (or Hawkins) and back Westhoff in

 

[Eagling]

Reckon my team is just about as complete as it is going to be; any upgrades now feel like a luxury.

5 trades, $9, 700 remaining

DEF: Jake LLOYD, Shannon HURN, Lachie WHITFIELD, Zac WILLIAMS, Brodie SMITH, Marty HORE, (Griffin LOGUE, Ryan GARDNER)

MID: Lachie NEALE, Josh KELLY, Nat FYFE, Jack MACRAE, Patrick CRIPPS, Marcus BONTEMPELLI, Clayton OLIVER, Dayne ZORKO, (Jackson HATELY, Dylan CLARKE, Nick HIND)

RUC: Max GAWN, Todd GOLDSTEIN, (Patrick BINES)

FWD: Josh DUNKLEY, Patrick DANGERFIELD, Tim KELLY, Issac HEENEY, Robbie GRAY, Jack DARLING, (Mabior CHOL, Matthew OWIES)

I know I'm running with holes in the forward line and at R2, D5 and D6, but I'm quite happy with my top four defenders and very happy with my midfield lineup.

 

[blue dreamer]

"gulp"

OK so after this weeks trades this is as "complete" as my team will get for the year.

3 Trades left, $ 83,700

D: Lloyd, Whitfield, Laird, Shaw Sicily, Simpson, (Witherden, Gardner)
M: Fyfe, Cripps, Neale, Coniglio, Sloane, B Crouch, Rockliff, J Selwood, (Clarke, Bewley, Hind)
R: Gawn, Grundy, (Bines)
F: Dangerfield, Kelly, Heeney, Mundy, Westhoff, T Lynch (rich), (Setterfield, Chol)

Players in Bold were round 1 selections although I hesitate to admit that both Mundy (out R3 in R15) and Westhoff (out R4 in R8) were traded out and in

 

[pizza safety]

Posted a completed team last week that didn't get completed due to the Daniel injury. Here is the real version barring injuries to Boak or Lycett.
Trading Whitfield in for Duursma for the final upgrade. Setterfield will be the only rookie to stay the whole season. Finished with 11 of the premiums I started (including Whitfield who I'm bringing back in). These guys were Williams, Whitfield, Fyfe, Cripps, Neale, Matt Crouch, Grundy, Gawn, Danger, Boak, Tim Kelly and Heeney. It's been hard to get here thats for sure!


Only concerns are D5 and M7
