Rate My Team

[Super Hans]

Now that supercoach has opened people can start posting their teams and let the people of bigfooty give you constructive criticism!!

From the Mods:

The idea of this thread is very simple:

1. Make a comment or two (or ten!) on someone else's team.
2. Post your team if you too would like to receive some feedback from the other posters.
3. Take all bagging of your team with a grain of salt!

Very rough first draft after sussing out the SC prices. Prepare for my fail of a line-up! Here goes...

DEF: Goddard, Gibbs, Doughty, C. Brown, D. Myers, N. Krakouer, Seb Tape (campaigner, Gillies, Talia)
MID: GAJ, Judd, Hodge, Martin, Ziebell, D. Swallow (A. Krakouer, Conca, Wallis)
RUC: Sandi, K. Tippett (J. Tippett, Cordy)
FWD: Buddy, Didak, Waite, Monfries, Rohan, Hale, Mzungu (N. Ablett, C. Dixon, Tapscott)

Yes I know it's heavily stacked with Gold Coast players

Thoughts from the experts would be much appreciated

GAJ over Swan from a Pies supporter. Interesting.

Re: 2011 Rate My Team

Well should of gone to bed a while ago, but been looking forward to this...like making the teams more so than maintaining them.

B: Goddard Gibbs Deledio Gilbee Firrito O'Brien Otten
Hunt Puopolo Duigan

C: Watson Bartel J Kennedy Shuey Ziebell Tambling
D Swallow Conca Wallis

R: Sandilands Naitanui
Petrie Bailey

F: Didak Harvey Varcoe K Tippett Rohan A Krakouer I Smith
L Patrick Mzungu Callinan


Will play with it more in the weeks to come, not sure on Wallis as I don't see him playing much seinor footy. Not enough cash in my forward line, but i wanted backs who also play midddle cause backs never score all that well.

Cheers

A fair point you raise. I started last year with GAJ and Swan, and obviously this team is going to be chopped and changed a lot before Round 1. I just know that if you don't pick GAJ at the start 99% of the time you get burnt. I wanted to fit at least one Pie in my team though so Dids got a spot in my forward line

I've had GAJ in my team every year from the start for the last 5 years. This year, I don't know. Won't have selwood, bartel, corey, ling etc looking after him. Obviously going to get the tag. Really conflicted on him this year.

Re: 2011 Rate My Team

DEF: Goddard - Lake - Gibbs - Deledio - Trengove - Otten - Moore (Heppell, Jacobs, Toy)

RUCK: Tippett - Fraser (Petrie, Lycett)

FORWARD: Chapman - Riewoldt - Franklin - Gray - Dangerfield - Watts - Prestia (Mzungu, Darling, Callinan)

============

Obviously there's some adjustments to be made, not sure if any have injury clouds (other than Hartlett and Gray) or which rookies may not see a game this year (Prestia, Lycett and Darling) but I'm excited about this as a basis.

Re: 2011 Rate My Team

Backs: Goddard :: Gibbs :: Deledio :: Otten :: Heppell :: Toy :: Puopolo
Bench: Jacobs :: Pederson :: Duigan

Mids: Ablett :: Swan :: Selwood :: Boyd :: A Swallow :: D Swallow
Bench: Gaff :: Hibberd :: Smith

Rucks: Sandilands :: Jolly
Bench: J Tippet :: Z Smith

Forwards: Chapman :: Riewoldt :: Franklin :: Didak :: Petrie :: Mzungu :: Callinan
Bench: Ricahrdson :: Matera :: Darling
----

I went for more rookies than I had last season, especially in defence. Allowed me to set up a good Mid/Ruck field.

Hopefully, a couple of the defence/forward rookies do well early enough for me to upgrade to Grimes/Goodes/Etc.

Yeah, this looks like a good team. Might need to shuffle some rookies as you're right - Prestia, Mzungu, Darling and Callinan likely won't play Round 1.

Now for my team:

B: Gibbs, Deledio, Gilbert, Grimes, Greenwood, Sheppard, Otten (Cheney, Heppell, Jacobs)
C: Goddard, Hodge, Swallow, Pavlich, Hill, Swallow (Blease, Mzungu, Wallis)
R: Sandilands, Jolly (Bailey, Campbell)
F: Franklin, Sylvia, Higgins, Grant, Watts, Krakouer, N.Ablett, (Smedts, Tapscott, Lamb)

Liking everything but the forward line. The first five of them are guaranteed games, but not the last five.

Benches need tweaking but that will happen over pre season
Please Rate, thanks in advance.

Re: 2011 Rate My Team




Core of the team is done. Bit more tweaking to do obviously. Probably a couple too many Carlton players

Thoughts appreciated. Thanks.

Sheppard, Greenwood are risky choices.

Don't have two players of the same team in one catergory eg. Hill and Pavlich. Get Harris instead of Hill.

Bailey is injuried again and so is Campbell.

Higgins is too injuried prone, get rid of Grant if you keep Higgins and get Morton, Watts is a big no no, N.Ablett does not deserve to start on the field.

Decent lineup but got major weaknesses in every apartment.

I think Mzungu will start round 1. Dont get Jed Lamb, An interview with horse on the Sydney website has him discussing Lamb and from the interview it doesnt sound like his plan is to play him this year. Very risky to have Higgins and Grimes, maybe just get one as there both very injury prone. Nice midfield

Re: 2011 Rate My Team

Why am I seeing so many sides including names like Kurt Tippett, Steve Johnson, Josh Kennedy, Higgins, Drummond, and Fraser. Proven players to keep away from at all costs wtf. Are you people serious? Have fun finishing outside the top 300,000 this year.

 

[FwdPocketer]

I wouldn't bother entering a side then

Fraser was the best value pick back in 2006, and this year he'll be a senior player at Gold Coast which means a lot more playing time, so for his price, he's a decent enough get. Personally, I never pay too much for my rucks to begin with... easier to get higher scores for cheaper players in the midfield, doesn't seem a very cost efficient process to spend big on rucks.

 

[V23]

Re: 2011 Rate My Team

Only my 2nd year of SC (last year was a disaster with me needing 10+ trades to get a respectable team, so I was always behind the 8-ball)

First, very early draft:

B: Goddard, Gibbs, Deledio, O'Brien, Otten, Heppell, Duigan (Smedts, Jacobs, Toy)
C: Swan, Judd, Hodge, Pendlebury, Boyd, D Swallow (Conca, Atley, Wallis)
R: Sandilands, Petrie (Z Smith, Campbell)
F: N Riewoldt, Didak, Pavlich, LeCras, K Tippett, Day, Richardson (Darling, I Smith, Callinan)

Thoughts?

• On reflection, my forward line is quite weak.
• Not sure on Ablett, may wait for a price drop (hopefully)
• Which one would be better: Conca or Polec?

This is just the beginning no doubt ill change my team a million times before the real deal starts.. tradional slow starter but always finish with a bang... always about making a little money earlier for great... ive got 8 Gold Coast players.. no doubt that needs to be trimmed down....

Not really, could also be a good way of making some funds
