I don't mind them either. As the official podcast they have to cater to the lowest common denominator (ie. me).

I'm curious to see some teams. MID and FWD feel a little tricky early days. Not enough value in top end mids and not enough options in the forwards, even before factoring in byes.

I'm more worried about defence than mids tbh.

I found defense pretty easy. There's a lot of value in that line.

I'm concerned of the number of potential burn merchants in that 800-900k range. There will be a winning pick in there I reckon and some train wrecks.

At least everyone will be on the McKercher train together

And hopefully the Newman train will reach the station in March.
Rivers, Fletcher, Bergman & McCarthy all look decent options but some will be a disaster I'm sure of it haha

Yeah I'm a bit skeptical about Rivers. He was a great selection for me last year but took a month to get going. Definitely some burn potential in those other names. I personally won't be going near Fletcher with the early bye.

Round 12 is definitely one of the hardest byes especially with north and port being so relevant early
OK. I'll be the first to bite.
Backs:
Whitfield, Rozee, McKercher, Newman, Carmichael, J Lindsay (Farrow, Fincher)
Mids:
Gulden, Butters, Steele, Young, Curtain, Langford, J Smith, Sharp (Grlj, Draper)
Rucks:
Xerri, Draper (Barnett)
Forwards:
Sheezel, Pickett, Flanders, Phillipou, Robertson, Gallop (Davaston, Dattoli)
Utility - J Dalton
Leaves $155K in the bank.
All clubs are represented other than Geelong and Collingwood. They can wait until after their early byes.
Newman and Draper are the only premiums missing from round 2. Gulden the only on from round 3. Whitfield, Flanders & Phillipou the only ones from round 4.
If Coleman has a blinder in opening round I may need to find a way to squeeze him in.

ok...so i created a team. This is what i have come up with so far. this is the first edit of probably a thousand different versions before i settle. The basic structure of my team is there. Just those around the premos hard to gauge i am finding this year.
**Note... havent taken into account the byes and all that rubbish either (i cant get my head around that) so go easy on me.

Yes you would be right.... back to the drawing board
EDIT: Swapped Harley Reid with Sullivan Robey (F/M). Problem solved.
EDIT 2: And i just realised i have only 29 players listed. "Utility" Will have to make room for another player.
Yep... back to the drawing board.

If it's the same as last year, no extra trades for the early byes but only 18 players scores count those weeks. At least that's how I remember it.
Had a crack at a team, $60k ITB, might be a tad heavy on injury prone players.
DEF:
McKercher----Newman----Coleman (Gibcus)
Grlj----Farrow----Josh Lindsay (H Dean)
MID:
Rozee----Butters----H Young----Will Day (Smillie)
D Parish----Jagga----D Sharp----W Duursma (Cumming)
RUCK:
Gawn----English (V Visentini)
FWD:
Sheezel----Petracca----Pickett (Peucker)
Sam Draper----Flanders----M Phillipou (Robertson)
UTIL:
Fin Macrae
Not real keen on fielding any rookies in the forward line for now and have only 6 on field overall. Heaviest early bye is R2 with Newman, Coleman and Draper missing. Really even spread of players over the mid season byes as well, yeah, it's probably too early to be thinking of those, but TBH, it's just the way the team fell.

I hope they get draft open soon to start scratching that itch. Meant to be open pre-Xmas.
