Discussion 2021: Strategy, Team & Player Discussions

11 Midfielders priced above 110+ avg at round 1 (3 priced at 120+)
15 are sitting at 110+ atm (4 Sitting above 120 so far with Steele now pushing himself to 122.)

TPP: Triple position player

Just on that. It would be very interesting to introduce the Utility position player. Not sure if or how it would work, but would bring another element to team structure. Would be fun I reckon.

The Utility position was brought into Fantasy this year at the expense of having 2 x ruck benches, a damn good thing too. Essentially plonking a DPP rookie in that position that you can then elect to cover in one of the DP's. Was handy when there were no DPP's to swing with. Either used as a FD or later in the year with a player for decent cover. The TPP would enhance things even more

I’m glad Green didn’t post another big score last night. Very likely starter for me next season.

Approximately $ 395k.

May or may not receive a discount for only playing 6 games.

Midfield of
Neale Macrae Bont Cripps Rowell and t green
Perfect blend of consistency with growth improvement
Will sacrifice the forwardline as its so hard to nail the top 6 early. Always people coming from nowhere

I forget how the discounts usually work but the number may need to be smaller next season with the shorter season in 2020. 6/23 is roughly ~25% so on similar logic, maybe the 2021 trigger is 4 or less games

If he stays on the park he will make $150k with ease. The question will be his body, which was good until last year.

He still has nice arms. Good abs too.

I will leave the discounts to the experts to work out and just providing a approximate price.

In the past it has been players playing 7 or less games that have received a discount , so yes they may make adjustments next season due to the shortened season.

ROB is/has been making a serious claim to be a starting ruck next season.

I would like to see two extra positions added. Team Defence and Team Attack. Basically you choose a team eg Pies for defence. Your score for Team Defence is then the total of every player that is listed as a pure defender only (no d/m). Does not matter where they actually play on the day just what position in SC they hold. You can trade to another team any time like any other player. You could have different teams for attack and defence.

Geeelong for Defence and Brisbane for attack.

21 CP to Walsh just sold me onto starting him 2021. Had himself 11 clangers with only 4 of those FA and still got 115. Will be him instead of Cripps I think.

And SPS. So good.

It’s a fun suggestion but what exactly is the point of that over the traditional player selections? I understand it works for NFL but I’m not sure it transfers to AFL.

Cripps finishing on around a 97.5 avg. Will be around 530-540k I think. I think he’ll be locked for me at that price.

Heppell and Cripps locked in!

Almost impossible to ignore at that price. Going to be quite a few no brain picks next season I reckon.

Thinking it was a way to get the key defenders/forwards into the selection process as a number of posters were discussing.

Some interesting points made.

One thing that I was pondering yesterday - I know some excellent players almost always start the dearest players on each line.

Can anyone in this category (no need to be modest - consistent ranks at/around top 1000 would qualify you) say whether they do this even if a player is overpriced in their view?

If so, how much are you willing to overpay by before you change tack?
