Rookie Lotto 2019: bumped back from oblivion edition. What rookies to start onfield?

[go you pups]

Hello all, intriguing bunch of rookies this year where we are not sure of job security yet for many except the more expensive types like Marchbank, Hampton and McCarthy and perhaps bargain basement Eddy.

This thread is were we can discuss and speculate who to field and who will likely get the most points for us, as the more points early on, the better position we will be ranked.

I have a feeling Miles could be good value if he's best 22 for Hawthorn as they need more run through midfield, while Eddy could be a yoyo, 40 one week, 80-90 the next with a bag of goals to his name.


Let's see how this plays out, but it's shaping up to be a challenging year on the rookie front.

I'm not as concerned about what our rookies will score as much as can we get 4-5 games out of them to fatten them up. Other than the 3 you mentioned above, I can't find too many in which I have 100% confidence in their short term, let alone long term js.

Eddy, Barrett & Hampton are locks for me (Otten if named).

 

[Tex Danger]

Ballsy to go SPS on field sight unseen?

Well Carlton see something to name him round 1. He was in my early teams before the injury. Tempting indeed.

I'm pretty set on picking him, and from there is seems a waste to have those $$ on the bench so I probably will field him. It'd be him, SPP, Barrett battling for m9. tbh none stand out so going the unknown isn't a huge risk

Its either him or GHS for me... very hard decision

 

[Tex Danger]

i just don't trust GHS JS or scoring in real season.

Scored well in JLT but even then he had limited TOG which always worries me, reading too much into PPM when its not 80% + TOG

 

[HolyRioli]

Have tried (almost) everything and can't fit SPS into my team

Will be starting Picket, SPP and one of Otten of Stewart on field, alongside Hampton

That's it for rookies

 

[Benji85]

Anyone start with Eddy? or safer to pop picket in forward for him?

 

[happy_eagle]

No Miles at Hawthorn is a surprise
Not worth dumping him though I reckon

 

[Benji85]

Anyone able to check if Taratno is selected, nothings really refeshing

Wait he is playing but drop him?

 

[doona]

Wait he is playing but drop him?

*So wont

Not a real surprise by anyone following Hawthorn. He might get a run now and then, but no JS at all to get a run on to make cash out of early.

 

[CrozaN]

Simpkin v Florent v Bowes v Shoenmakers?

I don't see Otten lasting.... his JS worries me. If i knew he'd be picked every week, he'd be one of my first selected in my team

Think Lever will come in for him next week.

Am taking Butler instead

 

[Tippaz]

Simpkin v Florent v Bowes v Shoenmakers?

Bowes for me. DP is a bonus

but for a little extra cash Matt Kennedy is 217k fwd and has been named onball in the GWS starting lineup

Curtly Hampton and EVW name but on extrended bench. That concerns me too, have Hampton, Otten and EVW along the back or on the bench. Hopefulyl at least two of them play.....bloody rookies

Pyke and the club announced earlier today that Hampton is a starter. No worries there

Same, sit him at M11 I reckon

Think it's out of him and Atley for that type of wait and see player, Miles has it over Atley probably

Having a look at Hawks side, I'm not sure who would come out for Miles
Henderson, Langford or Hartung most likely

Simpkin v Florent v Bowes v Shoenmakers?

Bowes > Florent > Simpkin > Schoenmakers
