Your team certainly was very POD. Great to see a team so different can go deep into the rankings.

For me I think it was the shit trucks like Robinson, Wingard, Yeo, McGovern (who came good) that killed me.
Brought in Doc real early followed by Boyd then Zorko really late.
Ohhh and Barlow, that shit truck killed me early too.
I'll up the ante raise your players with my spuds...

This year, I've tried something different and went with lots of mid-pricers - that worked out really well :eek:
So through a combination of a having lousy starting team and injuries - my team was stuffed
Round 1 spuds: Lonergan Shridan Kruezer Stringer
Round 1 with injuries forcing time on bench or traded: NN Gaz Rocky Fyfe Hall Barlow Adams Weitering

The highlighted bit I was right there with you. Every ****ing one of them.
But Lonergan Sheridan Kruezer Stringer. My god man what were you thinking.
At least Yeo, Robinson etc tonned up multiple times last year :p
 
Not keen on discounted beams?
First picked for me next season.
Beams is a case of buyer beware. Keep in mind that his knee is in far worse condition than has been publically disclosed. It's basically kaput. He should only be considered if he has a full, uninterrupted pre-season which the chances of happening are very slim.
 
Heard he had the extra tight operation done this time around, love to see him play for 2 more years, miss watching him so much though Danger has filled the void in his absence.
Worked for the missus.:D...:oops:

I suspect that all of the Essendopers will be priced at what their starting 2016 prices would have been.

They should be discounted a little more though... a year out of the game is a year out of the game

If The Chad is around the 450k mark I'll be all over him....






until he punches out 50s in the NAB cup :)

I know it is early on in his career but he seems to follow up a good year with an ordinary one. I think he'll bounce back next year.
the hamstring injury destroyed him this year

assuming he has a good preseason, I'll jump on
 
No bont

Yet to be convinced of his mid time if doggies are full strength
Depending on who they recruit will impact (good or bad) his SC value imo
Crameri is set to come back into their forward line. Cloke looks like he might go there too.

His history backs this up. 105 coming up with Ryder back getting it forward a lot more.

Maybe. Only a maybe for me.

New coach to develop the youth including Archie Smith. :mad:
I thought Steffi scored ok with Smith in the team? Wasn't it Trent West who buggered him up more?

Martin could be in the 485k-90 range, he is still well behind GoldyGawn but if he is doing most of the ruck work he wouldn't be the worst pick.

He's our best midfielder. He'll be in there more than most, him going forward will be used only to break tags.

Bev has all our midfielders play other positions. People thought Libba was a one trick pony but he won us two games by going forward (three goals vs WCE, two goals in the third quarter vs Sydney).

Any chance Stef gets ruck/fwd next year?
