Discussion SC 2021: Rookie Discussion

[Gruffles]

Sticking with Jones and Rowe for JS, both on bench and expect both to be outscored by Bergman, happy to make the trade before R3 if Bergmans still in the team and one of Jones or Rowe look smelly.

Yep, think there must be some sort of role for him that Bevo has come up with.

I just got told Ed Richard was stretchered off in the 2's game as well, someone who I think might be gunning for somewhat of a similar spot in the side, or at least someone on the fringes of that side.

Also, starting to worry re. Powell and others in these teams that haven't announced debutants yet.

I'm suspecting that we could be in a bit of trouble if we ignore rookies we 100% know are playing for ones we don't (Bergman).

I’m taking McNeil too.

Would’ve preferred two of Bergman, Brockman and HJones but to afford HShap over AFyfe in defence for me, I needed to take McNeil and only one of Bergman/Brockman/HJones (HJones for now).

Fingers crossed on McNeil.....

Alright Bombers and Swans fans...Ned Cahill or Chad Warner?!

Very interesting that the coaches pet in Hayward is emergency.

Same for me. He can just sit at M11 and score 50s for 7 rounds hopefully.

Warner.

Is anyone taking McNeil...?

Seems like that’s the key decision to be made

I’m leaning towards taking Bergman or Brockman over him although they seem to worse JS.

Avoiding. I see him averaging in the 45-55 range and has West (sub tonight), Jong (reserves), JJ (reserves) and Hannan (out injured) all potentially taking his spot in the next few weeks. The other concern is he plays a similar role to Vandermeer so they may opt to only select one going forth, of which Vandermeer would be the clear favourite.

Mid-season McLean will be back and Riley Garcia is also just returning from his injury. I'm expecting Garcia to be a really good rookie pick-up mid-year.

Scott or Bergman, who to start?

Thinking Scott with the possibility that Bergman could indeed be the sub

 

[Zimmer]

My Current Rookies:
DEF: (Clark), Sharp, Kozi, Highmore
MID: Campbell, Powell, Berry, Brockman, Gulden, Scott
RUC: Meek, Flynn
FWD: Warner, Fullarton, Rowe, Jones

Possible alternatives: Bergman, McNeil, Cahill... buffering...

 

[Vicwood]

If brockman puts any defensive effort in, Hanrahan will be the more likely one to go out.

Does Jaith take the Sicily Role.?

 

[XabiFernando]

Crazy to take Downie even in the knowledge he's a sub? Seems to have one of the better scoring potentials amongst the rookies.

I don't understand that at all

Better scoring potential than rookies that are named onfield and Downie may not even be used 🤔

 

[BomberSam]

Reckon Sharp could go at D5 ahead of a Young/Clark/Fantasia type?

Got 4 super premos D1 - 4. I'm big on Coxy as an on field option too. Very happy with him at D5/6.

How far away is the Golf Course ?

Yep. Put that down to not coping with the heat in the kitchen 😂

It was a very interesting post.

 

[Ratzondix]

Does Jaith take the Sicily Role.?

Probably a good chance but I wouldn’t be surprised to see him have a down game and get dropped. Track watchers reckon he’s upped his game but his kicking under pressure is a massive weakness. Hard to tell what will happen with the Hawks. Probably a few rotated through to see who’s worth a list spot is my bet.

I googled this Tom Powell kid from North and he looks to be an absolute unit #giddyup
