2019 Planning Thread

[Me Myself and I]

Forwards are gonna be much better than first thought.

Laird - Whitfield - Docherty - Williams

Dangerfield - Heeney - Dunkley - Kelly

I’m almost locking in those premos already. Could be the year to go light in the mids.

Not sure about TKelly in whatever position who'll be around 520k. You'd hope there are better value picks to be had.
Also, homesickness might kick in. Don't trust him, could take a week off here and there. Geelong only play once in Perth in round 20.

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Fyfe Cripps Macrae JKelly, hopefully my 1st 4 mid premo picks
After that Titch, Oliver

After that, f knows

Josh Kelly got pretty badly beat up at the end of last year, could have a short preseason.

****en hell campaigners.

How are you Bob ? .... you with us full time this season ? .... missed you last season for big chunks

Younger.

Here2tellyouwhy is a little slurry when it comes to Blue and Gold.

Keen on Jelly, Cripps and Fyfe in the mids.
Grundy and Hoff in the Ruck.
Maybe Hoff fwd and a cheaper R2 to push into R3 or for slaughter.
Heeney fwd, Whitfield and Laird defence .

Hurn is a balding spud with pathetic weaselly little quads and is lucky to be a premiership captain.
Barrass on the other hand nearly tonned up and took the second most marks in the GF.
Made Cox his bitch and he welcome to my team

 

[faible]

I think the Rucks will be a bit sketchy this year;

Gawn and the Preuss effect.
Goldstein back from the grave?
Stef Martin another season left?
Kreuzer staying fit?

Grundy is the only one that seems to have no risk of a role change, no fitness or age issues, and is coming off a consistently strong season.

Maybe one of the second tier rucks like Bellchambers, Sinclair, Witts, Ryder and co at R2?

Bellchambers/Clarke
Sinclair/Naismith
Witts/??
Ryder/Lycett/Westhoff

Yes.

Had a very tough year personally.

Same. We got ya, bruvs.

 

[gutsroy]

Lycett to Port: Helps Hoff, hurts Hoff, has no impact on Hoff?
Likely worth it for the DPP cover aspect alone, I guess.

Helps, hoff free to roam the wings rather than having to help ryder the girl out

 

[gutsroy]

Fyfe misses games most years, have to factor in the replacement scores into his average. Brave to leave him out with his ceiling, but not a guaranteed starter.

 

[Seymour Skinner]

Josh Kelly got pretty badly beat up at the end of last year, could have a short preseason.

Keen on Kelly, but he's far and away the GWS big gun now, wanna see how he goes copes copping all the attention, couldn't fault anyone for starting him, but he's a wait and see for me.

Off the top of my head Hoff scored well while chopping out in the ruck, still scored alright while not rucking.
Wouldn't want him at R2 all year, but an F6 going at 95 odd would be crisp, especially if he's got the coveted R/F swing.

Reckon so, too, frees him up to roam, and Lycett will attract a bit of attention. Hope it works out that way.
Decision likely won't be to Hoff or not to Hoff, but whether to start him in RUC or FWD line.

Yeah, had been thinking of starting him FWD, but your idea of potentially starting him RUC and swinging to FWDs from there might be more the go.

Hurts a little I'd imagine, may affect his TOG. Depends on his price, also Ryder, will he be fit, full preseason?
Bit early really to be discussing these types until prices and preseasons are over.

Reckon it lets you a dip at one of the massive $$$ Rucks and gives you a chance to pick off the other one cheaper, I'm already sold on it tbh.



Apparently Blake Acres is a M/F next year. Don't mind that at all, reckon the kid can play a bit.
