2019 Planning Thread

[Test Tickle]

Positions I expect from the dogs:

Suckling: DEF
Young: DEF
Wallis: FWD
Bontwmpelli: MID/FWD
Dunkley: MID/FWD
Hunter: MID
Trengove: RUC/DEF
Crozier: DEF
Wood: DEF
Macrae: MID
Cordy: DEF
Schache: FWD
McLean: MID
Boyd: FWD/RUC
Roberts: DEF
Webb: MID
Richards: DEF/FWD
Liber: MID
Gowers: FWD
Lipinski: FWD
Porter: MID
Dickson: FWD
Greene: FWD
Dale: FWD
Naughton: DEF
Williams: DEF
Daniel: MID/DEF
Lynch: DEF
Smith: DEF
Morris: DEF
Johannisen: DEF
Picken: FWD/MID
English: RUC
Jong: MID

Not too many relevant players. I’d expect everyone will have Liber and if he’s a forward, Bont. Macrae is a star but will be safer options at the price, like your Dangerfield and co.

Dunkley will be pretty popular if forward.

If forwards are bare as we think than Wallis will get a gig in a few teams. Crozier is the only defender I’d consider, wait and see if we actually play JJ as a defender this year.

Sam Lloyd?

 

[markm106]

Dom Sheed is a lock 2019.

Nah.

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Sam Lloyd?

I’d expect the new guys to be:

Lloyd: FWD
Duryea: DEF
Cavarra: FWD
Smith: MID
Hayes: MID
West: MID
Vandermeer: DEF
Young: DEF
Sweet: RUC
Khamis: DEF

Lloyd and Duryea aren’t really sc players. Think Cavarra will be in everyone’s team, West and Smith are just like any other highly rated rookies, all depends on game time. Expect Hayes to get games as injuries come.

Cal Twomey said Smith is his pick for the rising star, so he is pretty ready made.

Macrae a lock for me

Cool. See you in 2020.

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Think there’s a tiny bit of risk with Liber coming back, plenty of sharing midfield minutes at the dogs.

Bont Liber Macrae McLean Hunter Dunkley Williams Jong + Smith and West. Safer options imo.

Reckon Lloyd would be mid only, they'll probably use his VFL stats because he didn't play much in the big boys last year, not that he's SC relevant anyways like you said.

Bont Liber Macrae McLean Hunter Dunkley Williams Jong + Smith and West. Safer options imo.

None of those are close to Macrae in SC terms imo

Will consider 3 only in my initial team

 

[Obese Arachnid]

A late out means no father sons .

Wouldn't a late out result in more father sons?

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Any blue baggers know if Kruez is training from the get go?

If he is ....would you risk picking him this year .....every year he "burns" his owners

 

[gutsroy]

A few folks on here would be a chance, I reckon, maybe someone gives it a lash*. Would be a grouse job, footy and stats.

* Odds presumably higher if the ad lists free piss as part of the salary package.

Except for 2017 where you were burnt if you didn't have him

1 year over a career .... not great odds

If he's fit come Rd1 I'll probably take a punt on him if Gawn looks like playing FF this year.

Do you really think you won’t play the leagues best tap ruckman on the ball ???

I would play Gawn on ball every week and Preuss at Casey if it were up to me, but I have a bad feeling that the higher ups at the Dees are overrating Maxie's goal kicking & Pruess' ruck work.

I’ve always said, there’s a reason North we’re happy to release Preuss, when Goldy is 30 yo

I suspect it’s a poor tank

 

[rocker_oz33]

Rucks are going to cost a arm and a leg and testie this year.

 

[gutsroy]

Already been some articles on Wilkinson and mentions here. Seems to be making a good impression early on.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

When do SC release positions and prices for 2019 ?

 

[Huttabito]

When do SC release positions and prices for 2019 ?

Usually end of the first week of December SC Gold opens, so cant be long.

 

[Huttabito]

If only he wasn't suspended the first few weeks...
