    2018 Defence Premiums

    I'm torn on whether to have a more expensive rookie that's been in the system for a couple of years like Bonner or Byrne @ D3 or just go for 4 rookies under 200k onfield. A lot will depend on whether L.Murphy is selected for the Crows in round 1.

    2018 Defence Premiums

    Yep, I am definitely set on playing only one onfield rookie in the FWD line. That will not change. The only other possibility for me is going 3 onfield rookies in the MID, swinging Sicily back in place of one of my rookies @ D3, and choosing a premo FWD in place of Sicily. I just feel more...

    2018 Defence Premiums

    The more I analyse things, the more confident I am running a 2 premo & 4 onfield rookie setup, given the depth of rookies likely to be available round 1. Frees up cash to have a Bundy @ F5 and a Cripps or Cogs @M6. Whose running this setup in DEF?

    2018 Rookies

    Very risky. Not overly convinced by the DEF rookies either but I think there are definitely more options there that will play. 4 onfield rookies is prob a bit risky for mine.

    Not impressed with the FWD rookies at all this season. Currently have Christensen sitting at F5 atm.

    Proepector's Strawman

    Interesting, I was going to say I like Luke as a pick, not as confident on Tom but with the Dees’ expected improvement again I dare say he will be in the thick of scoring.

    Proepector's Strawman

    Don't mind that side at all. Some good PODs in there. Is that Luke or Tom McDonald in defence? I assume it's Luke and you're hoping for a breakout year? The only picks I don't like are Ablett and NicNat - can you be confident both of their bodies will hold up? I'm just not confident. I...

    No doubt it's a risk. But being priced at 749k, he only needs one sub-100 game to down a fair way in price. As good as he is, I'm worried about the impact Gaz will have on his scores, given how much he demands the ball. I'm either gonna be one happy man when that happens or be very disappointed...

    Pre Season chat

    My thinking too. In the past I’ve been inclined to start a bit lighter down back but I’m not sold on rookies down there at this stage so I’m seriously contemplating picking 4 premos down back this year and maybe going a bit lighter in the midfield with only 3, maybe 4 premos and couple of...

    Welcome back everybody to Supercoach 2018. It's very early in the piece but Supercoach is a game that just has a habit of grabbing you and taking you by the scruff of the neck, hence I can't help but start putting together the building blocks of my team. The biggest quandary so far in this...

    Correction - 1934 (Fyfe C) with Dusty, Mitchell, Yeo, Laird & Ryder to play. Should go close. A lot can go wrong though

    Round 20 Discussion

    I actually have ended with both Witherden and Rocky on field now. Looped Rocky. Happy to take his 99. On 1892 (Fyfe C) with Dusty, Mitchell, Yeo, Laird & Ryder to play. Could push 2500 if things go to plan. But that doesn't often happen.

    Round 20 Discussion

    Started Lloyd on the pine - he has been pretty average in the second half of the season. Pretty happy with my decision. Will now play Ryan on field. Got Witherden on field in midfield over Rocky.

    Either Oliver or Fyfe VC into Dusty or Titch. 50/50 on both to be honest

    League Finals Week 1 Trades

    Well, Rocky gets a reprieve in my team, much to my disgust. Nank needs to go on the basis that Soldo prob keeps his spot. I also have JPK whose not been named and been poor. So with 4 trades & 321k left, my anticipated trades are Nank -> Gawn JPK -> one of Dusty/Crouch Nank will only stay...

    League Finals Week 1 Trades

    Geez this Danger suspension has thrown a spanner in the works. Adding to that I've got JPK whose likely to miss cos of hammy tightness and has been a dud pick anyway. I think I might have to boot JPK -> Dusty & one Greenwood or Rocky to Gawn. I've fot 4 trades and 321k left. Not sure what to do

    League Finals Week 1 Trades

    Yeah I have. Gawn has GWS, STK, BL and COLL. Grundy has NM, PA, GEEL & MELB. I think Gawn has the better run home so I'm swaying towards him. I had him at the start of the year when he got injured. Burnt me. I'd hate it if he were to do it again

    League Finals Week 1 Trades

    4 trades and 321k left over. Rocky -> Dusty Greenwood -> One of Gawn or Grundy I've still got reservations about Gawn for some reason. There was talk about him missing last week and I'm just nervous about him for some reason. Grundy is in good form. Thoughts?

    Rd 19 trades.......

    I must admit, I’m thinking of bringing Dusty in myself but they don’t have an easy final month and the Saints for some reason have been able to curtail the influence of the gun mids this year. I’m thinking Zerrett might be the better option for me now despite the fact I think Dusty has the...
