Huge risk picking up players like Bradshaw, Thompson or Hentschel. They will be cheap but I don't know of any players that have done well after a knee recon. The following year maybe. Apart from Reiwoldt the others could be under valued in my forward line. I like the look of Rusling but he may not be under 200k.

Last year Brad Moran averaged 73 in two matches and ended up being priced at $157,100. This season Rusling averaged 87.5 in two matches, so hopefully he is somewhere under $200K.

Priddus played two games with an average of 68. He started 2007 at $176,700. I'm not sure if Rusling will be different because he started 2007 at $182,600 and then played two games averaging 87.5. Fingers crossed.

that's a fair bit of your cap gone right there
jbrown and nriewoldt are very expensive
ngbrown will be slightly cheaper but he did play a fair bit of the year
lynch will be expensive after his great year this year
hall and tredrea will be down on price
hawkins is a fairly good pickup though

my forward line will be something like
pavlich, hall/tredrea, newton, rusling, tippett/hentschel, bradshaw/thompson, hawkins & couple of new players

Strange that you wont have Fevola. He'll be quite cheap.

I have a bit of a different theory with my team. I have an idea in my head which kind of players I'd like to have in my team come finals time. To get to that I just can't have mostly "mid tier" players. They may well increase in value but you'll need to upgrade them at some time to get the team you want. I hope to generate my cash through the midfield. Those rookies are consistantly (and therefore increase in price more quickly) higher scorers. There are also more of them....
My point is I think you have to have a couple of premium players on each line. Hopefully those premium players are a little undervalued also. Players like: Josh Fraser, Heath Shaw, Jonathon Brown, Daniel Cross, etc. Thoughts?

i will have around (not quite sure) 4 amazing players that are 380-400k.

Guarranteed points and would be a reliable captain
