Discussion 2021: Round 1: Teams & In Game Discussion
- Thread starter Ben's Beasts
- Start date
This is what I currently have.
Rookies are obviously key, so there might need to be some flex in this as the weekend evolves.
Teams are being named progressively, rather than on Thursday night, like was the case in 2020 ... so rookie JS is at a premium in my view.
Also reduced rotations and back to longer quarters, so fitness and durability should be quite beneficial.
Price moves back to being after the third game.
Heppell is probably the only significant POD below (vs SCS) as I see it. Playing HB. @Bomber18 has him, otherwise roundly unpopular
I was/am aiming for a pretty pure GnR side, but Ziebell (playing in defence) and Daniher (low starting price, good form, playing for a much stronger side) look very appealing to me.
Def rookies look particularly thin, hence 5 premiums and Clark.
There are multiple rookie ruck options, some people going 2+, but Gawndy for me. Flynn basically a lock I think (Preuss injured).
Some discussion that rule changes (player standing on the mark can't move, player on mark at kick-ins an extra 5m back) will open the game up. Potentially favours more outside types, good kicks, good decision-makers and may hinder clearance players, rucks etc.
