Neither Schache, Hipwood nor Freeman will (ok, should) play much this year and Walker was ordinary.

Schache did fine, taken off at half time. Hipwood wont play this year, you're right, way to skinny and needs major work on his kicking. Freeman was quiet but conditions were no good for forwards.

If both Schache and Freeman "don't play much" then Josh Walker will lose all his hair as that's all we have for tall forwards at the moment.

True it seems. :) (Altho, I guess Andrews, Beasley, McStay all have a crack at some point too...)

Without further getting caught in the cross-fire of separate 'arguments'...

- The Brisbane 'Talls' were all beaten badly on the day.

- I can't see any of them being 'regulars' (besides Walker), therefore their SC value is low.

As I said, they have to be regulars. Justin Clarke is out indefinietly with concussion, McStay will have to play down back and Josh Walker wont play alone.
 
Averaged 89 last year if you take the subs vest out.

Scored..

123
60
96
99
88
105
90
48
72
21 (SUB)
102
87
93
88

Also scored 108 in the QF and then was the sub in the SF and GF.

Currently in my team.
Where did you get these numbers from?

I have him as averaging 81.2 without his one vest game in round 19 with a score of 28.

Rosa is shit. Burns the ball and wont get enough of it to average over 85. Loved him as a player, courage and endevor and all that but he ball use is average.
 
Interesting, my leagues went Goldy, Gaz, Fyfe, Danger, Pendles.
Deledio went in the first round, at 11 I think.
Then Shaw early second.
Our real spanner I thought was D. Martin at 6.

Pre draft I really thought I could peg a Danger type at 7. That quickly was out the window. Had me scrambling at a took a bias pick in R. Gray (SC love in general). Was tempted for Haneberry or S. Martin, 90 sec shot clock makes you rush!

Went R. Gray, Beams, Ward, Mumford first 4 in order.

This is my side untouched. Haven't made a move in free agency yet.

You got Cripps. You won it already. :D
 
My FWD line is weird. Feels could either get me 250 or 500 round 1. Loaded with educated risks.

And eveyones DEF looks crap on paper. Such slim pickings going 5 deep.
Mids are great. FWD is awesome. Back leave a little to be desired but that's all off SC again this year.

Your FWD line has 3 midfielders in it and they're all contested beasts who should get decent time in the middle with rotations etc etc.

Looked at the wrong row on Fanfooty..

Going cross eyed looking at players stats trying to find scoring patterns that may indicate an increase this year.

My bad!

That's why I brought it up. I've done the same thing.
Hate for someone to pick Rosa thinking will average 90+

I had Robbo, Tippett, Aaron Hall & Sam Gray for the last 3rd of last season and they pretty much got me over the line in my Draft League. Picked up all 4 of them as free agents at the perfect time. Had Cripps, albeit as bench cover most of the year as well. The only 1 of those 4 forwards who might go backwards a bit would be Hall, the other 3 should improve on last year.

Mumford in the ruck is a good get for you as well. I'd look to trade out Reid though. Surely there are better scorers still on the free agent list?

I hear you. Some of them I think went 'under the radar' a touch and I swooped.

Think the free agency pool could be the key to a DEF touch up. Everyone will be in the same boat though I figure.

Great minds.

If those 4 can get some 2015 form going, could be epic.

Agreed. Just isn't really much jumping out yet. Gotta keep sharp on on NAB to swoop on a gem DEF that looks to sharply improve avg.

Mumford was best I felt on offer at time, maybe a slight steal if brings best, stays fit and no brain-snaps. I was just shy of getting Nic Nat.
 
Petracca ruled out of the NAB i believe..

If he's not named Round 1 some reshuffling to do!. Was the fwd line link in the midfield for me.
Just start him still. Could be perfect for VC/C looping first round or 2.

May not roll with non playing R3 as Currie and Grimley types become appealing.

Quite the conundrum..

What's worth more..?

Guaranteed Captain's Loophole or an extra cash cow!??
Petracca is all of the above. Loophole then cow. Surely he won't be too far off. Maybe rounds 2-5 !?

Even if have a planned loophole spud, you always seem to gain one or two soon enough anyway.
