- Thread starter pizza safety
- Start date
I don't mind all the defender options aside from McAsey (JS) , Ash could depend on whether Williams is not named.
Mids we may not have much choice , although probably need to study Freo's injury list a lot more.
I won't need Jackson.
As I thought the forwards will probably give us the most , happy to take 4 x $ 123,900.00
Will probably end up taking Budarick and/or Mahony.
Looked liked quite a few were named as Emergencies so we may end up having more or less

No mention of North’s Mahony in those expected teams for round 1, not even an emergency. He’s been talked up multiple times internally during the pre-season and averaged 71% TOG over both JLT matches so expecting he gets named round 1.
Will be a slow burn but at $117,300 he’s a cheap option for the mid bench.

can't see the issue personally , seems fairly easy to start 13 + Roberton which most of the RMT teams were
still have Gawn , Grundy , 5 Super mids + Whitfield
Laird or Sicily + 4 under pricers who will go at 90+
you might need to look at Grundy , Jacobs , Naismith as a alternative ruck option ?
just got to follow the rookies where they are named

All hypothetical from the AFL website, but maybe this format will help coaches to finetune their Rookies setup before teams are announced.

Think it's a bonus if they are named Round 1 , who knows for certain if they are going to last 6-8 games in a row ?
Didn't Balta end up making over $ 150 k ?
Yes I started Parker , Scott , Setterfield and some other dud.
Plenty of other options in that $ 200-300k bracket to start that probably will all need to be upgraded though.
Certainly looks like there will be enough rookies to start but as for their scoring potential and JS then hopefully they play well enough to stay in the team.
I can't see the point in starting players that are not even named though on the bench just because they fit into the < or = $ 123,900.00 mark and then "hope" they play , hopefully these players present in Round 7-8 as downgrade targets
See what official teamsheets bring I guess
