thoughts guys? And yes I know the higgins trap is set.
Obviously hoping some def rookies get named
Looks pretty good. Personally I would downgrade Cripps to a cheaper rookie then upgrade Z.Smith > NicNat or Higgins to a better option.

Cheers. Dont know how many sub 130k rookies will have decent js
Yeah bit of a wait and see. I'm just not sure Cripps will score well enough though for a 211k rookie. Add Murphy, Gibbs etc. and he won't see as much mid time.
Looks good to a non expert. Lambert probably should start on field FWIWthoughts guys? And yes I know the higgins trap is set.

Deledio is being managed for achilles tendonitis, thats why I have steered clear of him. Sexton, Macmillon, Dumont I have no idea about. Karnezis, burnt me last year.
I would think Cripps would be worth the extra. Extra JS? Had a year in the system! Gingy

IF you're going with a 200k rookie I'd keep a very close eye on DeGoey @ the Pies.

Cripps will be playing Brick McLean's old role. Not a lot of competition for that role. Should play every week, injury permitting.

We were talking about mids, but yeah Casboult can't kick for s**t. Can't remember who it was, but one of the regulars here picked Casboult in their SC team a couple of years ago LOL

At his price youre not looking to make money you're looking for a keeper. If he's increased his value by $100k then i'd say he's a keeper already.
Still not as bad as Justin Koschitzke.I SAID NO ONE WAS ALLOWED TO MENTION IT
Is he worth the price Gingy? I reckon he could be, I want a rookie that will play.... a lot vs someone who's in and out. Cheers

I was completely amazed Pat McCartin didnt go hunting the ball, was amazed he stayed at full forward where he was picked in the draft as a key fwd that the club identified he needed to play at.
I spoke with Gingy and he decided at half time to head down to the game and abuse McCartin for not going ball hunting and showing the coaches they were wrong to ask him to play his role at full forward.
I'm still shaking my head in amazement at McCartin and his choices

Why are ppl jumping on Cripps? Murph//Judd//Carrots//Gibbs didn't play. Cannot see Cripps coming in strong this year, will play games but won't score big, the vest has his name written all over it.

I actually don't mind it. You're obviously going for league wins rather than overall. I'd downgrade van Berlo to upgrade rich. Probably take Anderson instead of Woodward too. Also there's better players than Prussia around that price.
Disagree. If anyone, Boekhorst will be front and centre for the vest, particularly early on until he adjusts to AFL level as he looked slightly out of his depth against the Eagles on the weekend. Cripps, on the other hand, was among our best three players and looked right at home.
Cripps is highly rated, and tore it up at VFL level prior to his injury. Is a contested possession machine who is built for SC scoring, and he addresses an area that Carlton desperately lack in the engine room. Takes McLean's vacancy straight up.
Also, if anything, the support of Judd/Murphy/Gibbs will help strengthen his game to help take attention off him and share the ball with in close passages of play. Against the Eagles he was almost running solo.
Avoid him if you prefer, but he was my smokey early on. I took him out of my side due to adjustments, but after seeing him meet my expectations against the Eagles, he's well and truly back in my side.

The WC Cripps also did OK and should have good js.At this stage I'm unsure on the high price rooks.
Also thoughts on Mitch Wallis could step up with no libba?
