Been trying to do it for two months! Finally settled for 11 prems, but would like another one.
I think there is value in premiums like Bont, Jelly, Green, Steele, all of the forward ones, potentially Ridley as well so in one iteration of my team I've tried targetting those first, you can squeeze in 12 if you forego starting with multiple $600k+ defender premiums (limit of one) or Laird/Oliver types, whilst still maintaining a decent mix of mid-pricers.

Most teams with 12 premos typically have a speculative type like Ridley or Gulden in there.
Both have potential to finish top 8 in their lines which is a decent outcome if it eventuates for their starting prices. Ridley I am not entirely sold on but there is upside if he is not going to be used as a lockdown defender at times like he was last season. Going 11 and an additional mid-pricer incurs its own risk of an extra mid-pricer failing, but may also allow for one less rookie.

Have settled for 11 Premium's, even with these 2 in my side. The difference is that I have 4 mid pricers in Yeo, Ziebell, Hopper, and Setterfield as well.
Is Setterfield going to get bulk inside mid minutes? Not liking that Giansiracusa stated that he has the potential to play on every line. At Carlton he was pretty average outside of being an on baller, would have thought Essendon would play him in his best position full time.

I think he'll get to a reasonable amount of CBA's mixed in with Merrett, Parish, Shiels, etc. I also think he will play a different role than he did at Carlton. It's a risk, but that's what SC is about. Can't go with Bruhn as I don't think he is guaranteed a game in the Geelong side and I think Worpel will have flashy moments in an average side

Would be pretty stiff for Bruhn to miss out after such a solid pre-season, if he is selected, he might not get all the mid minutes though that he did get in the pre-season so that's definitely a concern.

Is there a best way to see like final 5 or final 10 round averages to last year other than trolling through every plays stats individually and calculating it?

Lipinski is probably a decent marker for some of the midpricers. Part time mid role, got to $460k at bye time. Setterfield and Bruhn would fall into this space.
