NAB Challenge 2016

[doona]

The NAB cup has started and Sam Kerridge is looking quite good!!

Lets not start individual game threads but keep everything in here

 

[Fitzey]

Daniel Howe looked fantastic!

duryea lock down def role?

JS wouldn't be very good though

duryea lock down def role?

He will be interesting to watch. Pre-season some players get jobs like that purely for education. definitely not dt relevant if it continues

Birchall at 20k more and looked tip top...

duryea lock down def role?

Hes always played that role. Hawks are just such great scorers he avg 90 without veat from memory.

JS wouldn't be very good though

I think it might be. No Roughead, Lake, Suckling, Hale. The hawks seem to be covering with smaller options. He seems to have fitted in nicely.

A lot of the top teams generally introduce 1/2 players a year so you could be right.

I think from the games so far:
- Barlow at his price is a lock
- Mills is a lock. Could end up being D5/D6 come ebs of seasob
- Parker dominated for the swans
- Kerridge is so awkwardly priced

Really keen to see what my boy Matt Crouch will put on the table today and what role he will play.

expect a bigger fitter ball magnet... hope he gets his kick ratio up...

I can tell you what role he will play.

Purely onball all day alongside S.Thompson, Douglas and co

He will have a field day today.

 

[Fitzey]

He looks very good so far

Anyone watching the Adelaide game? Just had a quick look at the stats and Gore seems to be getting quite good numbers for a 125k rook

 

[Keystone agony]

Im not sure how much you can take put of a game like that?

Similar to rich vs freo aswell.

Only so much you can take from these games

You can certainly take roles away from it, If a player is playing in the midfield they are a fairly good chance to play midfield during the home and away season. That's what I have learnt anyway

Depends though. For example West Coasts completely depleted team, anyone in the midfield would be pushed out by the first 22 not playing.

Players roles are important but also who are the team mates/strength of the squad

Not when u have Priddis, Gaff, Shuey, Redden, Masten, Nicnat not playing in there and others

Roles is the last thing you can take out of the game IMO like that.

Fremantle you can take roles from it to a degree but depleted sides, no

AFrom a West Coast point of view there isn't much you can take out of a game like that. Gore was pretty good for Adelaide though and they played with a pretty decent team, would imagine that Gore could be pushing for a spot in round 1 if he could pump out a few more performances like that. The commentators were saying that he was rated pretty highly by Geelong before he was traded to the crows, take from that what you will... I currently have him on my bench

No Brad Crouch for the Crows again...

Disappointed that Libba isn't lining up for the Doggies tonight too, it is only their first NAB Challenge game though.

 

[Keystone agony]

Concerns as a crouch owner now. Pyle said 'he should be right for nab 3 nd round 1" doesnt fill me with confidence

 

[Fitzey]

Caleb Daniel anyone? Looks like a future 'mini' pig.

They are risky picks. You would hate to go into the start of the season and have hime as a late withdrawl

Libba did dominate the Intra club the bulldogs had. I just reckon they are wrapping him in cotton wool. Not wanting to push to far to soon

Crouch also dominated the intraclub

You would but that could happen to others. He plays saturday which is good with the rolling lookout.
