Planning for 2018

[TedDougChris]

No Tigers or Blues in my team at the moment.

Caddy and Nankervis for me - but I am doing something different this year... It will fail miserably, but it will be different...

 

[JDWCE]

Yeo been named on the back flank. Wonder if Simpson has finally realised that's his best role for us DT folk

 

[LyonCryin]

Dow or LDU?

 

[Atavistic]

Do Crows fans think Murphy will stay in the team long? Or is Finlayson a better bet?

 

[RickSanchez]

I might just keep Coffield anyway, surely will get in the team soon enough.
My backline does look extra trash at the moment.

 

[IQ3]

Coffield not playing

 

[JADED]

Am I crazy for having Dow & Kelly on bench whilst fielding cheaper mids, Banfield & Holman?
I just think they'll score 10pts more EA (although Kelly could be anything)

 

[Yellow Feathers]

I wonder how many games Barry will get?

Would have to be one of the first dropped after a poor game

If you're going to be interchanging them around, week in week out it's not too bad. But if they're going to be sitting cold turkey on your bench definitely not.

Think I'm going to keep Dangerfield in my team, and play one of the rookies. Long season ahead so won't hurt too much. YOLO

I've got enough mids & so do Port, he'd have to play better than Achee last year to squeeze in and now Port have numerous extras best 22/25.
If he was DPP I might squeeze him into a defender spot now that Coffield isn't playing. Time to find someone.

So that's a "No" for Barry, everyone? Damn, would have liked a mature age 170k over a Dow or LDU.

 

[Trav 20]

I'm very interested in Melbourne this year. I can see them being a top 4 side and I think they have some great depth. Can see some huge scores from their side and don't want to miss out. Do you think Maynard may plan Viney's role? Could be good smokey for a draft league

He's definitely in the mix, but I have him outside the 22 atm.

If Keeffe isnt named tomorrow ill move Finlayson to DEF and bring Barry into Mids... I think.

Waterman is named in the starting 18.

Cheers for that, just lumped all the Eagles debutants together. Updated

 

[JDWCE]

Can any Geelong blokes give me some info on Constable? Shadow89 ?

Seems an accumulator type and that means fantasy friendly. Wondering if he will play round 1 but be dropped the following week when Danger returns

 

[IQ3]

any rookie rucks selected?

 

[SM]

On your heads..

Coffield -> Pearce
Miers -> Fogarty

 

[dedem]

Just swap him out for Naughton, then swap back when he's finally named and pocket the extra cash

Danger's not my worry when it comes to Constable, it's Scooter that I'm looking at. Already back and playing VFL this week. Will probably play 1 week more there just to get his conditioning up and then brought back in Round 3. He looked really good during JLT and was a huge surprise to me. 69 from 69% game time in JLT 2 and somewhere in the 60's for JLT 1. Gives us the freedom to rotate Menegola forward, along with Ablett and Danger, if he performs. With that said, I think he's less likely to stay in the side even if he debuts, and therefore I'd be spending the extra 28K and going with Fogarty who I reckon will get a spot in the forward line if he performs well.

 

[Jessbek]

Last minute rush

Mclean and goldy or petracca and stef

 

[JADED]

Last minute trading whilst it's unlimited,
Marchbank to Savage.
(Marchbank been in my side since first selected but had extra cash with Coffield out)

 

[Dupogi]

Who is surprising nervous? Who is thinking Martin to bring in...
