Player Comparison Thread - Part 3

[Eagle_Bay]

ok got a couple here guys

i got leon davis as my 4th strong FWD and im now thinkn should i downgrade him to either - Henschel or Krakouer to gain money ?

then i can upgrade either Tuck or Haselby

I guess it depends on what midfielders you already have?

While were discussing him

Krakouer and 34 grand vs lucas?

 

[Juddy88]

Mackay v T.Tuck v Reilly

Reilly has been injury prone in the past, Mackay is somewhat an unknown in terms of DT potential and Tucks place may not be secure when injured players return.

Bump. Anyone?

Cheers.

 

[Rise_up_Stiffy]

Bump. Anyone?

Cheers.

I've gone with Reilly out of those 3. All are good picks though!

 

[RWnBluey]

Bump. Anyone?

Cheers.

I really like the look of Tuck this year.

My last Def player...

P Burgoyne vs Mackie vs Scotland???

 

[Big Kitty]

Ok either White(3rd Ruck) + Lloyd/Bate(unsure)

OR

Pyke + Gia

Thoughts?

 

[Schulzenfest]

No point spending extra money on your ruck bench, go Pyke and Gia.

Of course there is. Maybe not ruck bench, but other positions there is.

 

[Schulzenfest]

I know, which is why I said ruck bench.

Lol, my bad.

Didn't read it properly, for some reason I missed the word "ruck".

Been there mate, been there.

Ok final decision before i will stick with my team-

Otten(6th Mid) + Giansaricusa
or
Anthony(6th Mid) + Pavlich
or
Upgrade a 86k rookie as my 7th forward to ziebell and downgrade otten to Anthony

I hav beams and robinson as midfield reserves

 

[One Dimensional]

Garlett + Rich Or Hentshel + Robinson

(Bench spots)

 

[Lakey91]

Ok either White(3rd Ruck) + Lloyd/Bate(unsure)

OR

Pyke + Gia

Thoughts?

Pyke unlikely to play early (see swans site for article) as theyve said he needs a few weeks in reserves first. He's also only elevated until leo barry returns, so i can only see him getting 4-5 games in first half of season at most - he may be re-elevated after round 11 though, but by then i think currie will be back.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Wouldn't they have elevated him for Fosdike or Kennelly? Fosdike retired for injury-related reasons IIRC.

 

[RWnBluey]

Garlett + Rich Or Hentshel + Robinson

(Bench spots)

Robinson looks good, but i dont trust Hentshels body

 

[Go_Blues]

Hey guys, am stuck for the last place in my team. I have 381,000 to spend and can either use it on a midfielder or forward. (Have Skipworth as either a midfielder or forward, so can fill either position)

anyone? this one is really troubling me, thanx in advance for any help wat so ever!

 

[BartBart]

Hentschel v Ziebell (on field)
Collier v Geary (onfield - shore-ing up defence a little - Hill on bench)
Hasleby v T.Tuck - (could do Geary->Petrenko, put Hill on field and then choose Boak as 4th midfielder instead of these two)

Those three questions (plus final teams lists) will finalise my squads.

edit: hmmm - if I try and squeeze some $ I could Gia -> Goodwin. Probably not...

bump - anybody?

 

[kerplunky]

final selection dilemmas-thought my team was locked until i thought of a possible change:

Lockyer Petrie and Stevey J
Embley McIntosh and Franklin

????

Thanks in advance-im very unsure!

 

[footylover18]

anyone? this one is really troubling me, thanx in advance for any help wat so ever!

out of those options, i'd go with the 2nd one, but i'm sure you can come up with something better than that.

 

[footylover18]

bump - anybody?

dont really like any of the first two options starting for you.

Hase>Tuck.

Tuck may score better early, but hasnt got the job security that Hase has.

 

[force65]

lol you cant be an Adelaide supporter if your considering that

umm....1 game he is missing because of his mother dying!!

was scoring 100's before he got dropped from the side for not turing up to training and then when he came back he played up forward...of what i saw of the practice match againest sydney was playing similar role...should dominate this year

 

[Stenglein's a Champ!]

Richo, Pratt, Masten

OR

Brown, Adcock, Boak.


S. Thompson, Richo, Masten

OR

Cross, Brown, Boak.

So the aim is to upgrade Masten -> Boak. Those are two ways of going about it. Thoughts?

PS. Already have Hasleby as a mid-pricer.

 

[BartBart]

Sorry - which two are you referring to - Hetschell/Ziebel or Collier/Geary?

Hase>Tuck.

Tuck may score better early, but hasnt got the job security that Hase has.

Yeah - the conclusion I came up with. As long as Hase stays fit - and that is out of our hands since crystal balls aren't really all that useful. ;-)

For me - option 2 (of both)
