The official "X v Y" thread

[hellfire]

For whatever reason I've lost all faith in Chapman.

Chapman + J.White (ruck bench, other being Spencer)

or

Franklin + Jacobs (ruck bench, other being Spencer)

 

[Mick_15]

Giansiracusa VS Roughead VS Didak

Didak

fisher gibbs krakouer and liam anthony/beams vs boak, houlihan, mackie and otten
and i already hav higgins and ziebell in my forward line
it it to light havin krakouer as well?

and

which 2 out of these 3 jacobs, browne and spencer

first option and jacobs and spencer

Delidio VS J Brown

Delidio

So what is the general opinions on the mids bench then?

Robinson
Dangerfield
Anthony
Beams
Otten

Which 2?

Robinson and Beams(closly followed by anthony)

Salopek v Ball?

Ball

Now mine:

Rok & Fev vs Chapman & (Drummond/mackie??)

I know drummond/mackie are backs but i could swap houlihan fwd to make it work. Dont like the look of Fevs foot.
Opinions?

 

[hellfire]

Salopek v Ball?

Tough, I'd go with Ball though.

So what is the general opinions on the mids bench then?

Robinson
Dangerfield
Anthony
Beams
Otten

Which 2?

Anthony and Beams for me.

I currently have White on the bench but was wondering if there were any cheaper options in the ruck who will have a spot in their respective side?
Already have Spencer.

Jacobs for Carlton. Named to play tomorrow.

 

[BOMBERBLITZ]

Any advice??

I'd go with Ablett and Ottens. I have my doubts over Cox with his injury, and Kerr I think will really stuggle again.

Perhaps something like Petrie and Goodes could be better?

Either way you'll have inj concerns but Fev will only be out for round 1 if that. Drummond we all know is always inj.

So for me ROK and Fev

Cox and Kerr???

Any advice??

Ablett and Ottens easy

Kerr i doubt will have an impact this year

And ablett is someone everyone wants

My go - 1) Joel Selwood vs Dalziell vs Swan Vs Kirk vs Kornes
2) Pavlich vs Harvey

id go selwood
dont no why people are considering dalzeill i mean hes gone well but hes only played about 6 games

and 2nd one id go pav but u could flip a coin

mine is haselby vs t. tuck

 

[C-Dog]

one last decision in my team, Rich or Otten?

 

[hellfire]

one last decision in my team, Rich or Otten?

We're all stuck on this one.

It's a relatively sure thing (for a rookie) vs. a riskier option that could have more upside (based on scores).

I'm going with Rich for now, but it could change...

T.Tuck for mine simply because of his youth

i have rich at the moment too but i just dont know.

yeh thats what im thinking but how bout this

bartel vs judd
i already hav ablett and selwood, dunno if i want a 3rd geelong mid

yeah i wouldnt like the 3 geelong midfielders either so id probably go judd.

just realised im still tossing up between fisher and enright?

ive got fisher very consistent SCer

 

[shiny_on_top]

Kornes + Sandi Vs Hille + Selwood???

 

[RWnBluey]

Kornes + Sandi Vs Hille + Selwood???

Anyone else got opinions on Tuck vs Hasleby???

Really stuck on this one, please convince me

 

[GoodesStuff]

Kornes + Sandi Vs Hille + Selwood???

Option 2 easy- would prefer BOTH of them over the other option.

Chapman & Yarran v Steve Johnson & Krakouer

If I went with option 1 I would have to start a 94k forward as Yarren is not playing round 1.

Krakouer would be my 7th forward if I went with the second option.

 

[J6shSC]

Travis Tuck or Farren Ray?

 

[Itsblackandwhite]

Man i like travis..i really do - but i just dont know whether he will get most games - or most games till i can upgrade him ?

I mean if ur most likely got rich in your engine room starters - could u afford getting tuck starting for u but not for the hawks ?

 

[Itsblackandwhite]

id go selwood
dont no why people are considering dalzeill i mean hes gone well but hes only played about 6 games

and 2nd one id go pav but u could flip a coin

mine is haselby vs t. tuck

The only reason im considering dalziell is because - haha most teams are looking so damn similar - and i just think most guys wont take the punt on dalziell - and my tale of picking him in my midfield will turn out like a feel good hollywood movie with that dude who does the voice on all trailers narrating

 

[Atavistic]

Travis Tuck or Farren Ray?

mine is haselby vs t. tuck

Tuck by a mile in both instances. His scoring potential is much better.

Kornes + Sandi Vs Hille + Selwood???

Any combination of those is good. I've got Selwood + Sandi.

one last decision in my team, Rich or Otten?

I've gone Rich in SC and Otten in DT, though I know Otten might not even play for a while.

 

[Baker_for_PM]

now that pyke has been elevated for syd who would make a better combo for ruck emer him with spencer or jacobs or just spencer and jacobs
