Go to the Supercoach Scores League section, and sign up. I'm sure Jay would be over the moon to have you "drag us down"!

 

[Courtesans]

Don't worry about us mate, STUDY HARD.

Good luck with your exam mate!

Do you sleep Rowsus? Go well.

 

[Rowsus]

Do you sleep Rowsus? Go well.

Yeah, about 6 hours a night. It's just I'm sleeping between the hours of 10am and 4pm Melbourne time. Not great for the changes in SC this year, but it is what it is. (Bye the way, I Aced my final Woo Hoo!!!)

Thanks, IDIG. Pressure off, 2 year course finished, og nu taler jeg rimeligt dansk (and now I talk reasonable Danish)

 

[Courtesans]

Thanks Rowsus, Happy Christmas to you.

Is it just me, or is anyone else having trouble selecting cheapish forward rookies? Stringer and Mayes should get games at the Bulldogs and Lions, Menzel too at the Blues, but they come with a higher price tag. Who of the cheaper forward line rookies do you think will get early games?

Would Ben Kennedy at the Pies get games? Lee at the Saints?

Also, are there any mature-agers worth considering? Are there any Magners on next season's lists? Goodes at the Dogs would have to get games - a 28yo recruit would have to play in a young list.

Lee and Staker will get games. Then maybe pick a non playing rookie with a dpp link for captains loophole

 

[Nk29]

Also, kersten will be a good option if names rd 1

@hammo42 - Quite a few mature agers picked this yr. Terlich(D) & Jones(M) by the Dees, Van Unen(D) & another by Essendon, Stevenson(D) & Kane Mitchell(M-rookie list) by Port, Hutchings(M?) for WCE, 4 mature-agers for Collingwood (all rookie list, but 1 will get upgraded to main list before R1, prob Kyle Martin(M)), Cachyia(?/sp.?) for Blues, Osborne(D) for GC and some more besides.

 

[benderiffic]

But who out of the above will realisticly play? Heard a bit of Terlich and Mitchell but the rest are all new to me

 

[3rdMonkey]

Most of them are at least worth considering. If Kane Michell finds a way onto Port's main list he could be 2013's Magner. Mitchell & Hutchings came 1st & 2nd in Sandover Medal this yr (WAFL's b+f). Previous Sandover winners include Priddis (2006), Ballantyne (2008) & Krakouer (2010).

How does the feel of 12-13 premiums, 3-4 spec./comeback player/ex premium, the balance rookies still resonate?

On last years set up, it sounds ok. However, I think we may be looking at another radical change coming in this year, that may cause us to rethink this sort of structure.

That doesn't sound too good.

 

[Nk29]

That doesn't sound too good.

If it's 33 player lists then it will be awesome .

OK, Rowsus, enough of the suspense.

Please share your thoughts???

Approaching the end of the 2013 season it was revealed that Gary Ablett's opening price for 2014 was going to be around $620k. It was a confirmed chat between a HS journalist, and CD employee. This represents a 10% discount on the expected opening price. Either they are changing the pricing system (very doubtful), or are going back to the 2011 team lists of 33 players (much more likely). Either way, it is the equivalent of being given an extra $1,000,000 to spend this season. Depending on how you spend your money, that could mean starting the season with 2 extra Premiums.
I believe they will do this, as the byes still caused some level of donut problems this season, even with the best 18 rule. By bringing in an extra 3 players to our lists, they will reduce teams getting bye forced donuts even further.
That aside, they have pretty much made major changes nearly every season, so I can't see why this season would be any different.

 

[Junior Wölf]

so will all players be discounted by 10%? because i will be a lot happier with the top 10 or some being reduced in price.

 

[av1jme]

Everyone will be happier :-D
