Played 3rd tall while Frost rode the bench in JLT. Lever is injured. Who else is there? Joel Smith played fwd too.

 

[_M_16_]

Everyone pre JLT "Gonna be an awesome year for rookies, more mature players this year and looks like rookies will run deep"

Everyone Post JLT "Oh Christ, my team, where are all the rookies?" *deletes Supercoach*

Kade Kolodjashni is 3-4 weeks away and will probably replace him but looking at it now he's a lock to play round 1 so you have to pick him

Thought he was gonna play wing, but yeah forgot about him. Rookies suck balls in fwd and def this year.

Games played of sub 150k rookies of 2018 before the bye rounds.
A possible sense of job security for the 2019 rookies.

 

[gcsunsfc]

is Duursma going to play?

 

[Obese Arachnid]

How did this bloke make his way into my team?

By all accounts, yes

Rozee, Butters, Duursma and Drew all debuting

Mark Mercuri retired a while ago.

Nick Shipley won't play

Ahh you got me

[gutsroy]

Are people genuinely looking at Ridley? Haven't seen him play this year, but high price, JS iffy. Seem to be better options.

 

[scaryness]

is Duursma going to play?

Port Adelaide's best player will definitely play

 

[cdcanman]

Consensus on Walsh after another outing to review?
I've only seen highlights, but looks very composed and comfortable at the level.
What would he need to average to make his selection worthwhile for you?
Consistent, above average scoring early VS higher cash generation
Tis a dilly of a pickle

Didn't think he had a great game yesterday, flashed in and out but still chalked up 96 points.

Lock him in and throw away the key.
Think he will average something in the 80s.

For those understandably considering (if not outright locking in) Bailey Scott, i've a couple of reliable NM watchers who suggest he won't get picked early despite his solid form. Too many mature bodies, including some new recruits, for him to bypass for Rd 1. They are very much in 'win now' mode internally. Possible donut option perhaps if you are looking for one.
Of course, they could be wrong and he might play every game

Very hard to get a read on whether Bailey gets a run early he's currently on my bench.

I do expect LDU to get early games and quite a few games this year, he's looking in great nick and ready to score well. Currently my M7.

After starting with him last year, he can go fk himself
LDUseless

Nah for your sake I hope he fulfils his potential this year, but for SC, he's an absolute spud

 

[Nelso]

What has happened to Stengle and McAdam?

Both will play SANFL all year.

 

[caaarnthetiges]

I feel like I've spent way too much on rookies
Average price of my rookies is $133k
It's usually lower, but that's probably because we always get one or two decent $102k option, which we don't seem to have this year

I’ve gone the same route with an average of $136K and that’s even with a base price donut in Jordan sweet. It appears this year that most of the ‘premium’ priced rookies are the best options. I’ve had the likes of Gibbons, Mckay, Hind, Fort etc in my side all pre season but after watching them in the JLT they all look to be slow burners with not much upside.

Yes - a lock for mine

Has looked good from what I've seen. Think there is a spot off HB up for grabs at Essendon with Goddard gone and McGrath playing more wing?
Price isn't ideal, but looks like he can score well. Reckon I'll take him ahead of Collins.
Was a fairly high draft pick a couple of years ago, so should be set to establish himself this year if he's good enough for AFL.
