Prospectus seems to suggest holding off on Suns and Port premiums until after the bye - since they have the early one, apparently.

Did notice that Pros. Very early but Swallow and Powell-Pepper may end up being must haves and Ryder could be popular (especially with Sandi owners?).

Probably will count Gray, Wines, KK types out early? then there's Gaz...

One strategy would be to take a couple of those guys. They will miss a round before the others but will be playing when needed most. Missing 3 when you've got everybody else might not be the worst thing?

Spot on @Tono, i was wondering if i was only one thinking along these lines. I think it could be a big advantage to have 4 or so players from Port/Suns and them having the early bye, should provide much better cover through the bye rounds later on.

If you were to go that way @Mick how many would be too many?

Have been as low as two and as high as five of Port/GC guys

It's the normal 22 scoring, which I kind of like because it makes the supercoach planning a bit more interesting/difficult.

@Tono i think 4 is optimal as long as they are spaced out - 1 Fwd, 1 Back & 2 Mids should work ok, any more might be a stretch.

Swallow the only one i have from these teams and happy as he should make heaps of coin and only having one shouldn't harm the oa team score. I've gone a little cold on Ryder atm.
