Def and Fwd will sort itself out, I’m most paranoid about the plethora of SP Mids. Who to leave out?

I can't see how you can not start Macrae and Steele assuming they are fit.

Neale would seem to be too cheap to pass on as long he's training the house down over the preseason.

After that there are about 8-10 players you could make a case for. No doubt a few will be ruled out for various reasons before round 1.

Doesn't look promising.

But hopefully able to retain Marshall, Dunkley, Dusty, etc as their teams have a decent amount.

Dunkley is going to be a key selection imo. Assuming De Goey isn't an option a lot of coaches will go for Dunkley. He could be a key POD if he bombs, or starts on fire like last season.

Rayner start price 2021 ($392,900) / 2020 average (73.1) = 5374.83 (magic number for 2021 starting prices)

30% discount $392,900 * 0.7 = $275,030. As mentioned earlier, don't hold your breath on him getting the full discount, it often doesn't happen.

FYI Macrae jnr 5374.83 * 38 (2021 average) = $204,243 so cheaper than Daicos will be. If he's getting a decent run in the mid's I'll take him at that price over a first year player like Ward.

The magic number will be different, but that is where everyone is getting these prices from. They probably won't be far off.

Interesting you have the magic number so low at 5374 given it was 7638 for the 2021 season.
I’m basing my prices off the 2021 magic number and in Rayner’s case going off his 2020 adjusted average with a 30% discount not off his 2021 start price. Will be interesting to see how they come in when the game opens

Are you thinking of AFL Fantasy? The prices are higher in that, so that number could be correct for the game? It's usually somewhere around 5500 for Supercoach, dropping gradually through year.

Oh I’m sorry, confusion there then. Yep I’m all over AFL Fantasy, didn’t notice you were relating back to Super Coach

Well in my defense, this is the Supercoach forum :flushed:

Do you play SC? Stick around and join a league this season if you do 👍

I picked him up in my SC keeper league just before season finished, assumed he would leave and get opportunities elsewhere.

I'm pretty happy to have got him, I think he goes at 88/92 and will get stack of midfield minutes all depends on how the price looks and how he will be scored, I can't figure out some of the scores and averages from last year it's like the people calling the shots get hard ons for certain players.

Let's hope Lip is one of them.

Looks like the season is going to start on the Wednesday with Dees vs Doggies. Going to have to lock in 20-30% of our squads in really early.

Oliver and Macrae locks.

I wouldn't touch Gawn, Dale, Daniel

Hard look past Trac and Bont but we can't have them all unfortunately.

Dunkley mid/fwd pretty hard knock back if fit, can he stay fit?

Gawn, Daniel, Tracc, Bont (+Dunkley if m/f) are all serious Rd1 considerations for my squad.

I love Olli-pig but if any team is going to have a post-premiership hangover it's Melbourne.

And if any player is going to start drinking his own bath water after a premiership it's Piggy.

Reckons he's a trade in this year.

How much of a Premiership hangover will MELB players exhibit this year ? .....If they slipped by 10% given what they'll cost, are they a wait & see (upgrade option) ?

Sam Walsh has apparently put on 5kgs :padlock:

Usually i like grabbing at least 1 mid-priced midfielder but i dont think ill do that this season. I like Serong/LDU/Cerra and maybe even Rowell/N.
Anderson but i feel like i can find more mid-pricers on other lines to start the season.

My midfield will look something like: Miller, Steele, Walsh, Petracca/Oliver, Neale & rookies. I dont want to drop any of those 5 which is completely different strategy to last season where i started with Wines, Simpkin & Noah Anderson. The first 2 i kept all year and Anderson i dropped at an OK time before he really stopped producing.

Anyway, my thinking is that ill go with a strong-ish backline and my forwardline will be really weak. Currently i think ill grab Young and 2 of Milera/Day/Sicily as my D4-6.

Rucks look really interesting to me this season. I think ill avoid Grundy but i dont know who to pick out of Big O/English/Darcy/NicNat (maybe). In all likelihood i start Gawn but even that isnt 100% locked in. Definitely will be interesting as i doubt everyone will lock and load Gawn & Grundy. That said, im not fully opposed to going with that combo as Grundy could well end up averaging more this year than last. It still seems a good 'safe' option so it will depend on how much risk im willing to take on as to whether i tempt fate and go for a 'value' option.

My forwardline may end up something like: Marshall, Thomas, Rayner, JHF & 2 other rookies. It definitely looks weak on paper and i may end up downgrading a mid-priced defender in order to upgrade one of my 3 forwardline rookies but currently it looks like we should be able to start with at least 2 rookies on field in the forwardline.

So my team will look something like:

Lloyd, Stewart, Ridley, Young, Sicily, Day (2 rookies)
Miller, Oliver, Steele, Walsh, Neale, 3 Rookies (3 rookies)
Gawn, Darcy (Comben)
Marshall, T.Thomas, Rayner, JHF, 2 Rookies (2 rookies)
Click to expand...

I feel like we have 4 mid locks and the rest hope for the best with no cash left.

Macrae - elite won't stop.
Steele - elite only knock was slow start.
Miller - elite no one can go with him.
Oliver - elite I can see him getting better.

Easily put these in that list

Walsh - Cerra make any difference?
Mitchell - SM change anything go younger?
Bont - No real knock think he is overs 120 ave?
Trac - No real knock any premiership hangover?
Lyons - I can't have him at the price.
Merrett - Gun better options 115 ave?
Parish - I would want to see him do it again.
Guthrie - Done it 2 years running, price?
Wines - I can't see him going at better.

Great price options

Neale - Fully fit will be a bargain.
Adams - Fit? 2020 scoring? I just don't know.
Danger - Have to get him at the price.
Shuey - Fit? Getting on, midfield minutes?
