Def- Cumming, Brander
Mid- Rowell, Anderson, Green
Ruck- Naismith
Forward- Schultz, Taylor

Somewhat could say I’ve gone back to Guns and rookies
Don't mind it at all. I consider myself a hybrid between guns and rooks and mid pricers, I've basically taken enouhg mid pricers to cut down 1 playing rookies, but have still managed to get Grundy, Whitfield, Macrae, two other mid ubers and the standard underpriced guys all in. Feels pretty good right now.
 
7 on field right now.

Def: Cumming, Starcevich
Mid: Rowell, Anderson, Pickett
Fwd: Taylor, Budarick

DEF: Ash

MID: Rowell, Green, M. Pickett

RUC: Naismith (don't really see him as a rook tbh)

FWD: C. Taylor

Total: 6 Rookies - 5 if you don't count Naismith (looks like I've got the least from those commenting - time will tell whether that's a good or bad thing, haha)

Who's the cobra with 5 or less, show your mid priced madness in here.
I just made it two but I am:
Def: Cummings
Mid:Rowell, Pickett
Ruc: Naismith
Fwd: Taylor

Posted my side on the strategy thread the other day.
Well that didn’t last long, went out and butchered my team within a few hours.

Looks like this:

DEF: B.Smith, Sicily, Houston, Docherty, Roberton, Cummings (170k, 170k)

Strong defence, and had originally decided on only one of Smith or Sicily but far more confident in the two of them becoming top 6-8 defenders come EOS rather than taking a punt on a guy in the mids or forwards, Cummings becomes Young if named. Houston, Doc, Roberton all no brainers.

MIDS: Macrae, Dunkley, Coniglio, Mitchell, McCluggage, Brodie, Rowell, Pickett (170k, 170k)

Four big dogs, Macrae and Dunkley can make cases for being slightly underpriced. Evidence in Bulldogs results that they perform better with both on the ball, still a little nervous though. Coniglio underpriced, injury history concerning, love the bloke though so will give him a crack and hope not to get burnt. McCluggage and Brodie both at least 10ppg improvers this year. Mitchell, Rowell, Pickett locks.

RUCK: English, Naismith (170k)

This is where it gets a little sketchy. Across the two field spots I’ve spent around 50k less than what it would cost to have Grundy which is what helps me make the rest of my team something which I like the look of. Tipping Grundy to have a slowish start to the season and for these two to provide some cash gen throughout the journey. Should be a fun and frustrating experience rolling with these two.

FWDS: Steven, Petracca, Ceglar, Brayshaw, Long, Taylor (170k, 170k)

Role, JS, upside there for all these guys. Pretty set on this line.

Cash: 10k

Definitely a worry with lack of rookies presenting themselves atm, but hopeful we get enough to fill the benches. Forward rookies look to be ok. Have planned options to generate more cash if required in a few downgrades of certain picks to cheaper alternatives if needed.

6 with Naismith.
D - Cumming
M - Rowell, Green , Pickett

I'm not fussed if it doesn't stay that way, just need the rookies to present themselves first.
Happy to downgrade a midpricer to a rookie if/when named.
Scenarios like under performing/dropped (Cumming) or injured (cough, Roberton) are most likely to happen.
 
Five, with:
  • Def: Brander
  • Mid: Rowell, Anderson and Green
  • Ruc: Naismith
Midprice madness team:
  • Def: Crisp, Houston, Docherty, Howe, Roberton, Brander
