Considering Oliver to Luke Ryan and Zerk Thatcher to Roberton.

For me I would go Houston to Roberton and upgrade Oliver to someone with the rd14 bye like JKelly,Bont,Dunk,Mitchell and have a little in the bank to grab more expensive rookies if needed. With his side if they are all keepers, you won't have Martin,Petracca,Oliver,Cripps,Docherty,Brayshaw,Grundy,Gawn for that round 14.(Might not end up with a mid season bye tho the way a suspension is looking)

This is what I've come up with after the marsh games. By far the most midpricers I've ever had so very different waters for me. $11,700 in the bank.

Laird had been Houston all preseason until they changed the Port/StK bye. Picking him in the back of Smith moving to to a Mid/Fwd role, I also believe he took a few more kick ins than usual, even with Brown still in the team, will this be the norm under Nicks? or was it just coincidence and I'm looking into it far too much?

Sicily is one of my favourites, been locked since it opened. Hawks trade ins this year makes him an even greater prospect.

Docherty easy pick. Don't expect him to be near his pre knee output, but interested to see if how much he benefits from the kick in rules, he was able to ave 110+ without dinky free points.

Roberton looks like a very handy stepping stone, with a very small chance of becoming a premo. Is another one who hasn't played since the kick ins started counting towards stats. Value him over Houston, and couldn't have 2 of my defs missing round 11 in a best 22 round.

Macrae is the best. Built for SC and plays in a team who's midfield racks up points for fun.

Neale is a very last minute addition, hadn't considered him as a starter at all, always an upgrade target, but then I had a closer look at his draw. Specifically rounds 9-11, Richmond, Port and GC right before his bye, I don't think he'll be attainable in the bye rounds, happy to just pay for him now.

Not 100% on Cripps, but everyone else seems to be. I don't want to bet against him, especially when he has a tendency to punch out large scores early. I also don't rate the Blues at all and expect the man to be still be doing all the heavy lifting.

Dangerfield is my #1 lock. Brownlow year for Mr Me Time.

Dev Smith at M5 just don't have a heap of faith in the mid rookies. Happier to take a punt on Brander and Curtis on field atm.

Grundy and Gawn are too good not to pick.
Too many large scores, and it's super easy to pick when they are going to post massive scores.
Seeing people not pick Gawn is madness to me, I actually prefer him to Grundy, expecting him to be #1 scorer this year.

Dusty is just a very safe and boring pick, 100ppg for 20+ games as a fwd is an easy lock. Would prefer Whitfield but can't afford him.

Loved Greenwood's role in the Marsh games. Could hardly buy a touch in the second game and kicked at 20 something %, still managed a 75. Reckon he can go 90+ with ease, and a 90+ average in the fwds this year will be top 10.

I do not rate Ceglar as a footballer. I think he is terrible. But ever since the ruck scoring changes rucks have been gold and whenever you can pick them in a line that isn't the rucks you should do so. DPP is a very valuable bonus. I carried Westhoff majority of last year and still went alright.

I crossed Steven off my list as soon as I heard he had calf complaints, but the lack of rookies has forced my hand. Just have to pray now.

Can’t really argue with your reasoning behind your selections although I don’t quite see it with Ceglar and Greenwood myself. Interesting to see that you are so keen on them. I’m keen on all the others you have (although have Naismith over Gawn). Had similar thoughts on Laird.

Interested to hear what your contingencies are if some of those cheaper rookies don’t get named? The AFL authors predicted that Robertson, Watson and Budarick would miss out in Round 1. B.Williams also appears unlikely for R1 after missing last Friday’s match simulation due to his hamstring injury.

Would it be say Ceglar down to a fwd rookie and some of those guys on bench up to more expensive rookies? Or starting non-playing rookies on bench?

Yeah I decided to ignore byes considering corona.

definetly #2 but id swing brander to def williams to ruck and pick up some1 worth of xerri's value f7/8. Because there are more 123k fwds likely than in defence Brander can be ur likely cover if Watson doesn't get up

 

[Seymour Skinner]

Great side. Have you considered J Kelly over P Cripps?

No interest in JKelly.
Have owned him in previous years and it never works out.
Prefer others with the same bye round.
If I'm gonna take a risk on someone with ordinary durability it's gonna be Fyfe.

Jack Steven is probably the first one I'd cut for funds. If those rookies don't get a gig I will pick anyone else that gets a green light next to their name lol.

I didnt see much of the marsh so don't know much about the rookies this year. I'll just pick whoever, and I'm happy to use 4 trades in the first 2 weeks to grab any of the good ones that I missed.

Like I don't rate that Williamson bloke from carlton, but if he gets named for Thursday he's in.

 

[jaca]

Not sure we'll be playing, but still. Here's my current version - very rookie dependent:

D: Sicily, Doch, Howe, Noble, BZT, Brander (Watson, Williams)
M: Jelly, Danger, Bont, Oliver, Sloane, Rowell, Green, Pickett (Roberton, Mahony, Budarick)
R: Grundy, Gawn (Comben)
F: Whitfield, Dusty, Petracca, Smith, Rankine, Taylor (Davis, King)

Projected Rd 1 score is a little on the low side (not that it really means that much) but 0 $ remaining salary always looks cool.
Actually, a round 1 score of 1924 might yet prove to be monumental.

I actually thought the projected score was high not that I go by this, but most my teams have been sub 1900

 

[jobeywatto]

The projected scores are always low Round 1 because players are projected to score as they are priced. Pickett projected to score 23 for example. Also doesn't include captains x2. My projected is 1925.

I remember that projected scores were actually a great way to guess people's teams pre-lockout a few years ago. You could add up the numbers to find out people's' smokies. Don't think you can see other people's projected scores now.

Are you sure that you have enough forwards?

 

[Herbie66]

Are you sure that you have enough forwards?

only 14 and probably none of the Top 5 by average at the end of the season

damn should have picked Budarick or ? Academy Cadet to open up the F/M link

 

[Herbie66]

To be honest , I have no idea how to set up a team now , treat it like a normal season , try and plan a team for a early weekly prize or a shortened season.
