Yeah, very "common" looking line up, should match about 10 000 other teams. Still represents value though, so why not? But yeah, all three of those guys is pretty risky.

I got burned big time with Trotter from Nth last year. Prospectus talked him up and I picked him and then Laidley only gave him two starts for the season. Couldn't even use him as a cash cow! He sat on my bench for the whole bloody season :(
I know exactly how you feel. I got burned by his teammate Matt Riggio. He played every pre season game and then 1 or 2 from memory in the season proper. He sat on my bench all year and did nothing. :mad:
It was Lachlan Hansen for me. Beware Laidley is the lesson for DT coaches here!

LOL, well to be fair Laidley just picks the best 22 each week, and those guys weren't in it (I picked both Hansen and Riggio last year :eek:). I don't think Trotter is even on our list anymore, so Prospectus got that one wrong in a major way :p.

Maybe if they had played him they would have gone further :D

Just looking over the 2001 draft list and found that both Sam Power and Brent Reilly were taken in the 1st round. Was wondering if anybody would take them especially considering the recent success of Bartel (taken at 8)?
Brent Reilly yes, Sam Power no.

can some1 help me with my midfield....i always go relativly cheap in the mid

Judd
Cross
McLean
Sherman
Couglan
Butler

Muston
Cotchin
Thats a risky setup with coughlan and butler coming back from injuries, and sherman too i think :rolleyes: Cotchin is unlikely to start the season after injury in the tac finals. Bring in palmer and take one of coughlan and butler. Keep an eye on sherm's form in the nab and maybe think about schammer or griffen, hoping he'll finally break out as a good dt'er.

Connors will be ahead of him, coughlan will be back in the centre and polo will slot back onto a wing after time off late last year. As long as you don't expect many games out of him, no problem.
 

dont bowl there

Alrite cheers. I have finally realised that Chris A Johnson would not be a great pick up so any suggestions as to who I can replace him with within 10-15K. Already have kennely, ellis n symes.
