Yeah I'm basing this on Naitanui not playing round 1. I don't believe the club when they say he will play JLT. If Naitanui is named for round 1 I probably won't pick Lycett. No guarantees Lycett remains ahead of Vardy.
Lycett is better than Vardy and the club rate him and that enormous contract more.
 
The only question I ask is are you happy to take so much midprice risk with the money you saved by going Lycett at R2 over a Ryder/Grundy type?

No idea at the moment. At the moment I'm thinking either sauce or Lycett, but all depends on preseason.

Only a few non-rookies I'm set on at the moment:
Laird
Hibberd
Cripps
Fyfe
Gawn

I think everyone else will be in and out over the next 50 days.

If we win can we throw cats into milk at slo mo speeds all weekend?

Hell yeah, I'll even let you choose the breed and whether it's lactose free or full cream.
 
NicNat is awkwardly priced. I'll have to free up some extra cash so that if he doesn't get up I can bring in someone better than Callum Sinclair. :eek:
Or a bargain price, if fit?

BTW he's a No for me ......too many ?????? to start the season with him
 
All I did was mash my keyboard with my face :D

Nice side and you've got some higher priced rookies, too, so you've hopefully got flexibility if you need to tweak :thumbsu:
If the ruck combo works out, you're laughing with the cash it frees up.
Hadn't considered Starlow / McLean much, their selection% will be interesting.
Like LMac.
Beams has hurt me one too many times, tho, we've consciously decoupled. :(
Cheers bro yeah im quite happy with it, the backline is the line im least sure about but id like to wait and see on a few blokes like burton, Mcgrath, Burton and yeo before i get them. Also Aliir is my main risk but if he does get a game and especially if he does become our back up ruckman then hes great value.

With Lycett he'll be a wait and see but apparently hes looking great at training and with Nic nat not being fully fit he should atleast lay the first several games and at the worst make some decent cash and then hopefully ill get Ryder in for him post bye.

My team is too similar to everyone and i'm keen to change it up. Might punt Nic Nat and get Nank, Laird for Hurley and maybe Dusty to Sloane or Kelly
Don't change it up just for the sake of it.
If you're happy keep...rookies will define your team.

They all look very similar coming to the starting line ......but the secret is the trading you do after the start .....who & when

Kinda just waiting for JLT now. Rookies are pissing me off.
Have my team ready. Just need rookies to pop up.
I don't have Petwreaka, Christensen or B AhChee. But that will change if no or shit rookies are playing.

My work in progress:
Def: not liking most premo options, did have Burton in up until yesterday but deep defence talk has scared me off. So have put in Howe who l love and is relatively consistent in. Big watch on Maynard & McGrath
Mid: Couldn't go without Danger, god damn he is expensive. Can't stand Mitchell so refuse to have him. Love Zorko so he's in. Rocky has burned me before like 000's of others but got a good feeling about him this year. Cogs l was 80% sold on and whilst musing his inclusion, a news clip on him and gws leadership group comes on....it's a sign l tell ya so he's 100% in
Ruck: Have had nearly every ruck combo with Gawn...what a head ache! So many question marks on many of them so despite Cox going to be more prominent, don't care, gut feel says Grundy gonna smash it this year.
Fwd: Like Def, premo's not singing to me. Heeney in, interrupted pre season worries me so he could easily become Billings. If Heeney stays in JDG will make way for Billings him. Am bullish on JDG but setback concerns me. Bullish on Petracca too, again, like alot of my selections, it's pretty much based on gut feel.
Have my eye on a couple mid pricers and rather than commit now, it'll be a wait and see for first two rounds then use my 227k kitty to jump on most promising one in round 3.
 
Obviously still a long way to go, however the defence this season doesn’t thrill me, so I’am thinking I might start with 1 less premo, and starting with a Brawshaw or Seeds and have an extra midfielder along the lines of Omera.

Would look like: Burton, Hanley, Laird and 3x Rookies

Danger, Tich, Pendles, Rocky, Crouch, O’mera 2x Rookies
