Starting team structure
- Thread starter Thunderstruck
- Start date
I have him in my team but need to see what the lineup for R1 one is. I am thinking it will be a lot like the team on the weekend with Papley and Newman missing out as they both need to be elevated.
Dont see Teddles, MAcca, McGlynn, Rohan or Reid playing R1
So for you boys and girls who've been playing SC seriously for 4-5 years is the amount of genuine (matter of opinion I suppose) mid price options this season rare>? I know there wasn't alot last year and pretty sure the year before,
& following on from that what constitutes mid-price madness? 5,4,3?

6 or 7 easily fit.
Def 3&4 mids 5&6 and fwd 3,4&5 with wells
That is madness trouble with going guns and rookies this year is that the top 6 in def and fwds is IMO still undecided. Most are priced too highly. Roll the dice and you may get someone who gets into the top 6.
Flip side is guns and rookies.
Rookie value seems to be strongest unfortunately in def and fwds. I've made teams with the gnr stratergy. Just don't like the look of a rookie in def 4 although it allows you take five premo mids destined to finish in the top 8
Ablett rocky Pendles Fyfe danger also allows goldy.
Also the case I look at is laird vs smith. Smith has the potential,to match lairds scorimg whilst saving you cash which allows you to turn a Collins into a rich per say. The risk is there but the reward is great. Using this example rich and smith although could be classified as fallen premos too will easily its out score Collins and laird.
Problem with midprice stratergy is that it easy once you move from gnr to keep applying this elsewhere. With ,Ost allowing for some correctional trading it's easy to rectify if you keep them limited in your team.

Totally agree re fwds.
With the likes of kerridge wells and be ken there all with good scorimg potential. IMO although dusty Montagna etc will finish top six they are currently overpriced.

At this stage I'm running With
DEF: 2-2-4
MID: 4-2-4
RUC: 2-0-1
FWD: 1-3-4
Thoughts: rookies incredibly thin this year especially in the midfield so far. Midpricers that I've selected are a good chance to avg 90-100. Allowing correctional trading if required to adjust. Main reason I'm running this structure is I feel that when I change it my team starts looking the same as everyone else's.

I've settled on 2-1-5 up forward. Wells at F3 is tempting but leaves me pretty exposed. My setup as it stands is :
3-2-3
4-2-4
2-0-1
2-1-5
It gives me as many as 15 keepers if all goes well. I don't expect that to happen, would be nice if it did though!

I'm running with a very similar set-up with the same thought on keepers.

I'm not convinced that being different is necessarily a winning strategy.

it can help. The main thing that sets you aside is how and when you trade.

I do at the moment.
But I'm really unsettled on my side so things will probably change. For me it all depends on what rookies end up being available.

I've kept quiet about Menzel because I'm utterly biased about him. He was the first player to enter my team and hasn't left since. He enjoys kicking goals and taking contested marks so has the potential to score really well.
His risk of injury is his biggest draw back and the fact that he will be rested at times. Scott has said that Menz will be managed through the season. Pretty much if Menz has a slight twinge he'll be given the week off or maybe two.
I'm bullish when it comes to this guy's talents so I think his potential out ways the risks. But I'm so biased that you probably shouldn't pay any attention to me.
