HERE IT IS, COMMUNITY!
It’s the final countdown, the last chance, the end of days. Preseason is just about over, and we’re about to kick into the real deal, and your homeboys Lek Doggy Dog and Patchy McPatchface are here to guide you through the last week of Supercoach.
We have a proper scour of the rookies, we flip-flop AGAIN on Patrick Dangerfield and Lek drinks far too many beers than can be advisable, especially for any children who may be listening.
HOWEVER, we debut a new segment from FoxFooty and the AFL 180 boys, and hear from the one and only PETER HIGGINBOTHAM who returns to us to offer one final point of difference up forward.
Throw your questions, teams and leagues into the comments – this will be one of the last times we gather round as a community before the fecal matter hits the proverbial when teams drop!
Remember you can find every single thing we’ve done in the pre-season – whether that’s sorting selections by teams, by JLT games, by positions – anything – on the drop down menus on the site.
So strap yourselves in, crank up the volume and hold onto your butts, ROUND ONE IS HERE!
Heres my team, its getting to close I'm panicking
DEFS- Laird, Tuohy, Naughton, Doedee, Murray, Finlayson (
Ripping side there doggy. Best I've seen!!!!
HAHA I'm panicking so much I cant even leave a comment DEFS- Laird, Tuohy, Naughton, Doedee, Murray, Finlayson (Murphy, Keeffe) MIDS- Danger, Mitchell Kelly Fyfe Parker Cripps Brayshaw (freo) banfield (Kelly, Holman barry) RUCKS- Ryder Gawn (Cameron) FWDS – Heeney, Mclean, Smith, Petracca Sicily Fritsch (Giles-Langdon, Ryan) Three main concerns, Danger, Ryder and Sicily I'm willing to cop the Danger Round 1 donut and the Ryder round 10 donut. but I'm considering downgrading Ryder to Nank, I could really use that cash to clean up the team Finally Sicily is he honestly worth the hype or is he to risky… Read more »
What are you going to do about Ryder’s doughnut in round 10. Do you [email protected] a backup plan because Cameronrobably won’t be playing
3 options
1: willing to cop the donut
2: Downgrade to Nank the Tank
3: Cross my fingers and hope for a miracle ruckmen to play come round 10
Liking option 1 the best
Why are coaches still talking about the PTA/GCS bye? It doesn't matter and have all that time to trade up before hand. Round 10… so what
Probably because Having Ryder means you will cop a donut for him because round 10 you need 22 on the field, so you'd need a playing Ruck in R3 and who is that?
The other 3 bye rounds you only get scored from the best 18 onfield.
Think about it this way. You lose 100 during Round 10 but make it up when everyone else is copping donuts in the ruck R12-14
You can field best 18 in rd12-14. My ruck is KRUUZE. Round 12 is his bye, and I know my lowest score will be pretty high in that round. Ryder won’t make it to match every ruck in the league
Not if you trade in Ryder after his bye. And those other rounds are best 18, R10 is best 22 … big difference.
It's supposed to be fun mate, don't worry too much about it, it's the journey that's most enjoyable, not the destination, for most of us, the destination is Shitsville lol
Who The F are these guys? first time i have listened since last year….Wheres crouching, Jock and Peter?????
gotta agree, nowhere near as entertaining..
Give em a go…bugger off if you don't want to be here.
Come on now Andrew, surely you aren't one of those twerkers who hits up jockreynolds.com a few days before the season starts, listens to the most recent podcast and tries to build a team off that?
Things have changed bro, consider yourself lucky that there's any information on this years Supercoach season here. Because without "these guys", you'd have nothing.
I love this btw
Thanks man. 🍻
What cave have you been living in , in the last 4 months?
I actually live in a cave, but go to an Internet cafe to compensate
You have an internet cafe near your cave?!
What's an internet cafe? Is that from before mobile phones?
Fun fact: the day after iPhones were invented (3/5/1485) the first Internet cafe was opened so that people could read the Torah on their new devices. Unfortunately people just downloaded Angry Birds leading to a decrease in Jewish population due to people being too busy trying to complete level 8
It’s actually a Maccas but it counts
Does anyone have the JR community group code? cheers
Does anyone have the JR community group code? cheers
505844
thanks man
Im having the same issue at my work where group joining isnt working via a code. What an i missing? Any tricks?
Thanks.
You have to make sure you are putting in a group code and not a league code. Open the group menu first
I don’t even get an option to join a group.. will only let me create a group
Is ur team completed? I had the same problem until i had selected all 30 positions
Just as a fun activity. I'm keen to see who people believe the Top 10 (Top 5 for rucks) players in each position will be, given that these lists likely decide the players people chose. Except for potentially the midfield (given the amount of players that could finish 108 plus), I personally believe all keepers that we start with should be finishing top 10. Personally I see… Laird, Hibberd, Hurley, Howe, Yeo, Houli, McGovern, Simpson, Tuohy and (maybe) Savage Danger, Fyfe, Mitchell, Dusty, Kelly, Oliver, Crouch, Duncan, Neale, Merrett Gawn, Kreuzer, Ryder, Goldstein, Martin Heeney, Greene, Menegola, Franklin, Billings, Gray,… Read more »
I agree with most of that mate, although i'd probably swap Duncan out with Bont, feel like he will really bounce back strong
Total points? Average? 2nd half of year?
Sorry I should've made that clear. I base it off average if I believe they can play over 20 games
Swap Jacobs for Goldy
I think its a fair call Re: The players you listed bar one.
I see Wallis being a top 6 not top 10 forward. I have my doubts on Wingard & Roughy however being top 10 in the forward line.
Why don't you see Wallis being a top 10 forward?
Wallis can't stay on the park for a full season, that's enough for me to exclude him.
Pretty solid.
Touhy to llyod.
Duncan to Pendles (I think there are plenty of others ahead of him as well, even his captain).
Greene won't play 20 games, flog. Wingard out D.Smith in. If fit R.Lobb, but assuming he is not.
NicNat over Goldy?
Outside the top 5 fwds is anyone's guess.
Replace Touhy with Jones, Crouch with Zorko, Goldy with Nank, Roughy with Smith, Gray with Lobb and you have a team
He said it is based off average so Gray will make it easily
Hey guys this is my current team and wanted some feedback and advice! I have 13 players I’m hoping on keeping and 1 potential keep in Smith! I have 100k left over for last minute change or put towards early upgrade but all thoughts comments be greatly appreciated!! Thanks community
Laird, McGovern, Lloyd, Naughton, Murray, Finalayson
(Doedee, Mirra)
Martin, Mitchell, Merrett, Fyfe, Cripps, Brayshaw, Banfield, Kelly
(Brodie, Holman, Barry)
Gawn, Nankervis
(Olango)
Franklin, Heeney, Billings, Smith, Christensen, Rayner
(Fritsch, Ryan)
Hey David, your team looks solid man. I have to be honest and say I'm not sold on the Christensen/Rayner picks, there is a hefty amount of coin invested in those two and I feel as though that coin would be better distributed elsewhere. If you are super-keen to have them in your line up, I would recommend only picking one of them.
Good luck! ⛄️
Christensen's averages: 66, 80, 93, 91, 70 (injury interrupted)
That's worth the risk in a season with no guaranteed forward rookies.
Just quickly is Oliver a concern 🤔
If he lines up Sunday then it should be fine, I doubt they risk a half fit young player in the first game of the season
Been my lock all year, am I concerned? Slightly…fair to say we should have a backup plan for a late out situation
THOUGHTS COMMUNITY ?
Good luck everyone this year!
Defenders-
Laird, Savage, Lloyd (Finlayson)
Naughton, O’Shea, Murray (Doedee)
Midfielders-
Mitchell, Martin, Zorko, Fyfe
Parker, Brayshaw, LDU, Banfield
(Kelly, Holman, Garlett)
Rucks-
Martin, Gawn
(Olango)
Forwards-
Franklin, Heeney, Greene (Fritsch)
Smith, Christensen, Stephenson (keefe)
Only slight change for me would be LDU to Brodie
Stephenson also might score the best for his price. Start fritz
Can't see O'Shea getting a gig. Switch him to coffield.
I'm panicking so much it's to close to many questions DEFS- Laird, Tuohy, Naughton, Doedee, Murray, Finlayson (Murphy, Keeffe) MIDS- Danger, Mitchell Kelly Fyfe Parker Cripps Brayshaw (freo) banfield (Kelly, Holman barry) RUCKS- Ryder Gawn (Cameron) FWDS – Heeney, Mclean, Smith, Petracca Sicily Fritsch (Giles-Langdon, Ryan) Three main concerns, Danger, Ryder and Sicily I'm willing to cop the Danger Round 1 donut and the Ryder round 10 donut. but I'm considering downgrading Ryder to Nank, I could really use that cash to clean up the team Finally Sicily is he honestly worth the hype or is he to risky Sides… Read more »
Sicily will out perform his price but will have weeks where he goes missing, better than any of those other 400K (and under) forward fwds imo
I like the side
Personally I think you should strengthen your defence, so if downgrading Ryder or Sicily allows you to upgrade a rookie to a premo in defence then I'd do it.
I have $300 the downgrading of one of ryder or Sicily would give me enough for like Riley Bonner, Byrne, Corey Ellis, Brayshaw (Melbourne) a player for around 200-300k is it worth it?
Say Ryder to Nank and then like Keeffe up to Bonner or Ellis
??
Lek your a Carlton man, what are your thoughts on Byrne is he worth it 230k odd defender worth it?
Or do I downgrade Ryder to Lycett and have a ton of cash to play with??
Hi community This is my second season of supercoach and I have been asked to join my husbands league which he plays with his mates – i’m sure they think they will get an easy win against me So I have done some research and came across this site and couldn’t believe how helpful the articles and comments have been Can I please get some feedback on my team so I can hopefully beat my husband! Laird, Hibberd, Mills, Naughton, Doedee, Finlayson, Murray, Keeffe Dangerfield, Martin, Zorko, M.Crouch, Fyfe, A.Brayshaw, Brodie, Kelly, Banfield, Barry, Holman Kreuzer, Gawn, Cameron Heeney, Billing’s,… Read more »
Pretty good looking side, how much cash do you have left in the bank?
Thanks Only 2.5k in bank
Good team. Should go good. You will have a few problems in round 14 having a lot of your guns not playing, but that is just one week you might just take a loss.
Good luck
Thanks Derek – I honestly didn’t consider the bye rounds
Maybe Crouch to Merrett.?
By round 14 you should have a top 4 locked.
Nice structure, l like it. But like Derek said definitely rd 14 is a problem.
GONE MISSING = ROOKIE CHEAT SHEET, please call if found
Jump on SC and sort by ownership, that'll give you most of your rookies 🙂
Good. It's better those that have done some research and spent some time get rewarded with potentially better rookies than those that turn up and just plug in 8 rookies off the CHEAT sheet IMHO.
Nerves are getting real community! Let me know your thoughts.
DEF: Laird, Hibberd, Savage, Naughton, Doedee, Murray (Finlayson, Mirra)
MID: Dangerfield, Martin, Mitchell, Crouch, Fyfe, Brayshaw, Brodie, Banfield (Kelly, Barry, Holman)
RUC: Martin, Gawn (Cameron)
FWD: Heeney, Greene, Billings, Bell, Christensen, Fritsch (Ryan, Giles-Langdon)
Cheers!
I think you gotta pick one of Bell or Christensen, rather than both
Bell higher potential but Christensen might have a bit more job security
Why do you say that? Both seem underpriced with good JS to me. I only have 20k in the bank so wouldn't be able to upgrade either and both would be better than downgrading to a rookie (wouldn't know what to do with the 150k then anyway)
If you're keen on both then by all means go ahead, but I can see them both playing a half-forward role once Zorko and Beams play together, so don't believe both can rotate as a relief midfielder. So while both may score slightly better than a rookie as pure half forwards, I don't see the 150k extra cash as being worth a few extra points.
Interested to see what other people think though.
DacZawson its a really toughy year in the forward line this season and whats more concerning is almost every year the "Premo" forwards under preform, it happens year after year and the same can be said in defence. That being said the vast majority of mid priced players fail every season irespective of their positions. However with the lack of rookie depth in our forward lines this season I dont see it being an issue having players such as Christensen & Bell if a person feels its right. I personally have Sicily and Christensen in my side, if history is… Read more »

Please let me know what you think.
Cheers
Hey DR, I really like your line-up. If you are happy with it, I'd run with it. I don't have any Saints players personally, they either burn me when I do pick them or I get burnt because I didn't pick them. So I tend to stay away from them because it scares me.
Good luck! 🍀
thanks man, yes I do agree there very flammable, but so tempting
Flammable, but tempting…
… Like lighting farts on fire?! 🤣
🌬🔥
Thoughts on my team? Cheers got 41.8 K left over
Gone for a strong forward line due to lack of rookies
Def- Laird, J. Mcgovern, L. Ryan, Naughton, Doedee, Murrat, ( Finlayson, L. Murphy)
Mid- Danger, Titch, Z, Merret, Fyfe, Parker, A.Brayshaw, Brodie, Holman, (Banfield, Kelly, Barry)
Ruck- Ryder, Gawn ( Olango)
Fwd- Heeny, Walters, Mclean, D. SMith, J. Scicily, L.Ryan ( Langdon , Fritsch
One of the more pure guns and rookies team going around. I'm running 9 mid pricers, needless to say we only share 5 players over 250k. If all your rookies are named consider Scicily to Petracca. I've got both, but one is going to go to to tribunal at some point you'd think.
morning morning morning as always good to see everyone on the grind to finalising their teams, would love to hear what you blokes think. DEF: Laird, hibberd, savage, murray, doedee, finlayson (stoddarrd, murphy) MID: dangerfield, mitchell, oliver(or zorko or kelly), fyfe, cripps, brayshaw, banfield, hollman ( kelly, worpel, barry) RUC: gawn, nank (cameron) FWD: heeney, billings, mclean, smith, petracca, fritsch ( keeffe, ryan) 42,800k left i have gone very deep in fwd which i worry about because these breakout players need to perform. what do u reckon? any ides maybe downgrade to a rookie? what rookie? should i change my… Read more »
I like it mate. Also agree Re: Oliver, Zorko or Kelly its basically flip a coin for these players.
Oliver is my pick of the three as well. Gawn loves hitting it down his throat.
Tips on any changes I should make??
Defenders: laird, Hibberd, savage, coffield, naughton, murray. (Finlayson, doedee)
Midfielders: danger, Martin, Mitchell, Fyfe, coniglio, armitage, Brayshaw, kelly. (Banfield, Barry, holman)
Rucks: gawn, nankervis. (Cameron)
Forwards: heeney, Greene, smith, Rayner, Stephenson, fogarty. (Ryan, fritsch)
@Gingging – Decent side but you are making a huge mistake by having both Coffield & Finlayson in defence because both these players are MID/DEFENDERS. Swap Coffield with L Murphy in defence and then swap Brayshaw to Coffield and this will then allow you to swing Coffield & Finlayson from Midfield to Defence and vice versa and while doing this change you will pocket yourself an extra $95k I don't like the idea of having high priced rookies, any more then 2 high priced rookies is a waste and you have 4 in your side which is crazy as you… Read more »
Keep A Brayshaw. 🙂 you can open up the dpp swing set later. Cheers.
Can’t decide between Sicily Mills or McGrath as D3
Currently have Sicily but the other 2 may get midfield time and get more points
Any thoughts appreciated
One will get suspended I'd bet. I don't like any of those 3 at D3. Sicily in forwards if you must have him…I do though. Flip a coin on the others. I've read that Hanners might play wing this year so there could be more mid minutes. McGrath should get better as well.
Can someone tell me how to pick a side? I have a reveal tomorrow but hate everything about my team
Just pick Cripps and Kruezer Lek. Everything else should just fall into place.
They're already in haha
Intelligent auto select does a pretty good job
This is the team it gave me…
DEF: Simpson, O'Shea, Bonner, Naughton, Mirra, Finlayson (Yeo, Seedsman)
MID: Dow, Garlett, Cripps, Higgins (Richmond), Petracca, D.Martin, Coniglio, Caddy (Wingard, Stephenson, Armitage)
RUC: Kreuzer, Simpson, (Cox)
FWD: Rioli, Walters, Daniher, Fogarty, Christensen, Smith (Franklin, Giles-Langdon)
$72K in bank
Krussse and Crippa in that team, so its looking pretty good.
Franklin and Yeo are solid bench cover.
Stick the C on Garlett and ya done Lek.
Which Rioli? There are 3 and they are all forwards. 🙂
(I've got all of them in my AFL Dream team just as a cheeky gimmick, reckon I should pop Long into my MID)
Would love everyone or anyones input on the line mup im currently running:
Feel free to tear it to shreads:
DEF: Laird, Hibbered, Savage, Doedee, Murry, Finlaysion (Keeffe, Grathwaite)
MID: Danger, Dusty, Twitch, J Kelly, M crouch, Fyfe, A.brayshaw, T Kelly (Banfield, Barry, Holman)
RUC: Gawn, Lycett
FWD: Heeney, Walters, D smith, Sicily, Fritch, L ryan (Waterman, Giles-Langdon)
Cheers fellas
Do you think lycett over Nic Nat?
Really just looking for a cash grab and upgrade arouns the byes. Surely he can average 80. any better options aroun dhis price?
NicNat is not as cheap as I thought he would be
Nic Nat is playing, and will be number 1 ruck in that side, so ultimately Nic Nat
I think Lycett was mainly mentioned as a option through the preseason as Nic Nat maybe missing early. Now some reports saying he might be ready r1, im not sure he is a great pick anymore. Ur backs and mids look solid. Forward line i believe u should rethink. Its a tough line to fill this year so dont make it tougher. Selecting 3 midpricers that u are hoping will all take the next step is wishful thinking. U will be needing to make a lot of corrective trades and potentially u will run out of trades come seasons end.
Disagree Hotly The only other way would be prems and rookies. I would think of the prems Buddy is a lock but too dear Heeney is not much better than 3 midpricers and Billings un reliable then you have your expensive rookies/ etc BELL CHRISTIANSEN RAYNER STEPHENSON. All 4 have better J S than your rubbish rookies led by Fritsch but are a risk I would not take a chance with ANY FORWARD ROOKIES two of Heeney/billings/ buddy and 4 midpricers I would even go further and have the flog Sicily linked to Brander as a 7th forward trusting only… Read more »

Or going Sicily to defense then Tracca down forward
One more spot in this league. 833476
Struggling with R2 currently have Nank he looks good but i'm worried I've been sucked into JLT hype don't have much money to go up to someone but could try any help appreciated!
Its a trap
Fella's can I get some overall thoughts on the current squad bloody sick of playing with it 😉 Laird, Savage, Ryan, Doedee (if not named can upgrade to Naughton/O'Shea), Murray, Finlayson (Murphy, Mihocek) Danger, Dusty, Titch, Fyfe, Coniglio, Brayshaw, Banfield, Holman (Garlett, Kelly, Barry) Kreuz, Gawn (Cameron) Buddy, Billings, Walters, Smith, Tracca, Fritsch (Giles-Langdon, Ryan) My only real question is should I be cutting 2 rookies down to not playing cheapies e.g Cameron & Barry/Ryan to 102k players so I can upgrade Coniglio to Oliver? My logic is at present let Coniglio go up in cash, let the rookies fatten… Read more »
Really like the team if you are going for league win. If going for rank there’s too many round 14 bye players IMO. F1 to F3 and D1 to D3 on that bye plus Danger, Dusty and Fyfe. Dusty to Kelly would help that and a few other changes might be necessary across lines.
Yep just gunning for league wins mate lol
I see nearly all side running only two rookies on field in the midfield. Am I stupid to be running 3? It means I am only running 1 in the forwards and have Sicily at F5.
Cheers in advance.
No personally I see three as the way to go
have faith the SuperCoach Gods will provide us forward rookies.
It is like a few years ago when we had no defence rookies and people were jumping out of windows, but Jock said to us, “don’t be afraid, they will come”.
And just as the season started, two tiny little specks of Hope came forth in the form of Oxley and McIntosh just as Jock had predicted.
Have faith community.
(I’m looking at you Mr Higgins, Ahern, Spargo, Wilson, WRioli, Venables, Guelfi & Naish)
Never forget
Settled on your team yet Derek?
Hi All!! I have some unusual decisions but still enough of the good stuff was wanting some opinions – pending some rookies not being announced
DEF:
Hurley, Shaw, Sicily, Brayshaw Naughton, Doedee (Murray, Murphy)
MID:
Martin, Merrett Mitchell, Fyfe, Macrae, Cripps, Finlayson, Banfield (Kerry, Barry, Holman)
RUC
Gawn, Nank (Cameron)
FWD
Heeney, Wingard, Smith, Petracca, Keefe, Fritsch (Garlett, Ryan)
Thanks community
Wingard said in an interview that he's likely to play majority forward, turned me off him
Love the Hurley pick
Solid side with some nice risks
Thanks Lek! Didn't realise that about Chad I will bring someone else in… but who is the question.
Loving the podcast guys
Greene could go well if he stays out of trouble, good early draw too
Solid league side, don't see it being competitive in overall
Thanks, any easy fixes you think or the whole side is just not really suited?
I think it will be really hard to be competitive without danger, looking like he will miss one game at most. It will be such a hard task to bring him in once his is playing and you're going to miss out on his early round points, and cost your self some trades in the process. Only fwd rookie I'm banking on is Fritz, Keefe will be a borderline selection as will Garlett, and I don't like to scoring potential of Ryan enough to have him on field. I've had to go 5 deep in the fwd line, and rely… Read more »
Who are your rucks Trev?
No sure if you're referring to me as you've called me Trev a few times.
Im going with Kruuuse and Gawn
-Not Trev
I totally agree trev sorry WOW BUT even Fritz is risky at F 6 let alone Garlett Ryan Rioli the GWS kid or KEEFE unless you have him linked to SICILY (DEF) The Defensive rookies will make coin.
LOCKED GAWN and KREUZ /olango cheers N D D
Thanks Rusty?????
thanks heaps for the feedback definitely agree with R3 I think I will do that, i am considering upgrading Garlett to a mid price FWD I have just enough cash for someone around the 300k mark
LEK what are your thoughts on SPS has DPP but awkward price of $371k.
Cheaper than Petracca and Devon.
Thoughts?
Only played a half of JLT, banking on a big breakout…I think he'll be relevant just not this year
There is a reason Petracca and Smith cost more. It is based on their past performance but the likely improvements in both players and teams only adds to this. Carlton should improve but both Dees and Drug cheats should both be a season advanced
Derek.
Not sure what happened to SC Addict and a couple of others, no one knows but this has created a couple of spots in the happy place league.
If you want to join and go head to head with the boyz the league code is:
123493.
Lets get ready to rumble.
I've restructured my team again for a more healthy bye plan. Ditching Bonner for a rook, to allow me to go Parker up to Titchell: DEF: Laird, Savage, Ryan, Naughton, Doedee, Murray (Keefe, Finlayson) MID: Danger, Dusty, Titch, Fyfe, Cripps, Cogs, Brayshaw, Banfield (Barry, Holman, Kelly) R: Gawn, Grundy/Ryder/Nank [undecided] (Lavender) F: Walters, McLean, Smith, Sicilty, Christensen, Fritsch (Giles-Langdon, Ryan) As I said it gives me a solid by spread. Other options I'm looking at is Titch down to Whitfield or Parker, freeing up cash to move Sicilly to DEF (for Ryan), and get a Billings/Greene. Although TBH I think… Read more »
Should I go with danger and fritsch or dusty and Christensen??
If you want to be competitive in overall standings danger is a must
Call me crazy but I'm going with Neale over Fyfe to start this year. I'd love them both but there's something about 4 dockers in the guts that doesn't sit well with me. Anyone else running with Neale?
ThiNk I will agree with you you're CRAZY . DANGER TICH DUSTY and fyfe are must haves as quick as possible KELLY OLIVER ZERRETT and M.CROUCH make up the rest BUT points scored between 8 and 12 i.e. crouch and bont/neale is minimal
Crazy
I I think the Billings move will net you basically the same points but lock in a top 6 forward, I lean slightly towards that move
To help you with selecting that on-field "0" for your loophole, below is the number of times each team plays in the end of the round (last 3 games of a normal round, last 2 games of a Bye round). More late games the "0" plays = better loophole options
West Coast Eagles 12
Melbourne 11
Fremantle 10
North Melbourne 10
Collingwood 8
Hawthorn 8
Western Bulldogs 8
Essendon 7
Richmond 7
Brisbane 6
Carlton 6
Geelong 6
Adelaide 5
Greater Western Sydney 5
Port Adelaide 5
Sydney 4
Gold Coast 3
St Kilda 3
Great work.
Looks like should go for cheapest DPP from WC, Melb, Freo, or Norf.
Gday community. After some constructive or abusive feedback for my team below. Have at it xoxo
DEF: Laird, Hibberd, Savage, Doedee, Murray, Finlayson (Naughton, Mihocek)
MID: Dangerfield, Mitchell, Oliver, Fyfe, Cripps, Coniglio, Brayshaw, T. Kelly (Banfield, Barry, Holman)
RUC: Gawn, Nankervis (Olango)
FWD: Heeney, Walters, Smith, Sicily, Rayner, Fritsch (Keeffe, Ryan)
All rookies obviously dependent on who’s named.
Regardless of rookies named I don't think Rayner is anywhere near worth 200k. I'd downgrade Coniglio or another mid down to a rookie and then Rayner to a premo forward
Thanks Dac. I’m working on moving some things around to turn Rayner into Christensen.
Think I might throw Sicily back and turn Savage into Petracca. Then again, I’m sure I will have 100 different team structures switched around between now and lock out lol
Great team you piece of shiit.
What do you guys think
D – Laird, Simpson, Hurn, Stratton, C.Ellis, Finlayson (Murray,Doedee)
M – Mitchell, Kelly, M.Crouch, Fyfe, Libba, Robinson, Jager, Dow, (A.Brayshaw, T.Kelly, Holman)
R – Gwan, Lycett (Cameron)
F – Heeney, Sicily, Darling, Day, Lloyd, Rayner (Venables, Fritsch)
$121k in kitty
I wanna be constructive but get rid of Stratton, Ellis, Dow, Lycett, Darling, Day, Lloyd and Rayner, then move Mitch Robinson to the forwards. Also Andrew Brayshaw needs to be on field
gosh…..
Pies confirm Murray and Stephenson will debut.
Murray absolute lock. Not sure about Stephenson
Shuey and Titchell or Parker and Zorko
The one that doesn't have Shuey in it
Kreuzer, Bont, Armo
VS.
Nank, Oliver, Libba/Cogs
Also who is better pick Liberatore or Coniglio?
2nd option
And I'd say Coniglio because of libbas inconsistency
Laird, Simpson, Lloyd, Naughton, Murray, Doedee
( finalayson, Mirra)
Martin, Mitchell, Crouch, Fyfe, Parker, Brayshaw, Brodie, Banfield (Holman, Barry, Kelly)
Martin, Gawn
(Olango)
Heeney, Greene, Billings, Smith, Christensen, Stephenson
(Keefe, Fritsch)
Thought guys very appreciated quite new to SuperCoach
Martins scoring comes almost solely from ruck positioning so if Archie Smith is named, then back off
Stefan by the way
Getting nervous as hell. Team version 8265…

F: Heeney, Lambert, Smith, Petracca, Sicily, Fogarty (Fritsch, Ryan).
Questions:
Do I change Garlett to Banfield (lose Swing with Fwd)?
Do I change Cameron to Olango for the captain loop?
Yes on Garlett to Banfield. 👌
Your call on the rucks. 😶
Thoughts on my team please community. Any feedback is very much appreciated.
Laird, Hibberd, McGovern, Bonner, Doedee, Finlayson, Murray, Mihocek
Dangerfield, Mitchell, Kelly, Oliver, Fyfe, Brayshaw, Brodie, Banfield, Kelly, Ahern, Holman
Gawn, Kreuzer, Olango
Heeney, Billings, Smith, Sicily, Fritisch, Langdon, Garlett, Ryan
11k remaining.
Love your team, but have some small issues with some players.
Bonner:
Too expensive for a cash cow, too cheap for a keeper, doesn’t score enough to be a combination
Oliver:
Young, inexperienced, but could explode and get 120, too uncertain as a keeper for me
Kreuzer:
Bloody good, but expensive. You have to back him in to average 110 plus
Sicily:
Flogometer: 99.99%
Ahern:
Bad JS bad scoring potential
Thanks mate, much appreciated!
Disagree with Oliver you can lock him in. Also only question mark on Kreuzer is his health so if you trust him to stay on the park pick with confidence.
G'day, could I please have some thoughts on my team:
$17.9k in the bank
Def: Laird, Hibberd, Rance, Mills, Naughton, O'Shea (Keefe, Mihocek)
Mid: Danger, Dusty, Titch, Fyfe, Cripps, Andrew Brayshaw, Banfield, Kelly (Garlett, Barry, Holman)
Ruck: Gawn, Naitanui (Balta)
Fwd: Heeney, Billings, Smith, Sicily, English, Fritsch (Giles-Langdon, Ryan)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, TIA
Any league spots?
What should I do!? Thoughts and advice greatly appreciated.
27k in the bank
Laird, Lloyd, Savage, Sicily, Murray, Doedee (Finlayson, Murphy)
Danger, Dusty, Kelly, Fyfe, Coniglio, Libba, Banfield, Holman (Kelly, Garlett, Barry)
Gawn, Nankervis (Olango)
Heeney, Billings, Smith, Petracca, Fridtsch, Langdon (Ryan, Ahern)
Cheers!
Ahern might not get a game this year.
I'd say downgrade either Sicily or Savage to someone like Naughton or O'shea to free up some cash and upgrade libba to a Premo.
O'Shea wont be named
Def – Laird, L Ryan, Hibberd (Melb), Naughton, Keefe , Doedee (Murray, Finslayson)
Mid – Titch, Danger, Fyfe, THE Zorko,J Kelly, Brayshaw( FRE), Garlett, Banfield, (Barry, Holman, T Kelly)
Rucks – Gawn,Sandilands (Cameron)
Fwd – Heeney, Billings , Smith, Barlow, Sicliy , Fritch (Ryan, Brown)
No many in Bank should i down grade sicily to a Taberner or Christisen for money in bank who is team good
should i take a punt on sandi or get Nank
PLEASE HELP DEF: Tuohy, Savage, Sicily, Naughton, Murray, O'Conner (Deodee, Finlayson) MID: Martin, Mitchell, Kelly, Fyfe, Cripps, A. Brayshaw, Banfield, Holman (Constable, Kelly, Barry) RUC: Kreuzer, Gawn (Olango) FWD: Billings, Walters, Mclean, D.Smith, L.Taylor, Bell (Fritsch, Miers) 55k spare I think i have gone deep in FWD because rookies there are all shit. I would like to have more than 55k spare just incase any of my picks do badly in the first 2 weeks – so then i can upgrade them. I dont have Laird because i believe he will drop 50k in the first 8 weeks. I think… Read more »
A few Geelong rookies on your bench in O’Connor, Constable, and Miers. Do you know something we don’t?
O'Connor should be a regular, Constable is a jet and will improve fast when he gets a start. Haven't heard much about Miers yet.
Thoughts on my team? Cheers got 41.8 K left over
Gone for a strong forward line due to lack of rookies
Def- Laird, J. Mcgovern, L. Ryan, Naughton, Doedee, Murrat, ( Finlayson, L. Murphy)
Mid- Danger, Titch, Z, Merret, Fyfe, Parker, A.Brayshaw, Brodie, Holman, (Banfield, Kelly, Barry)
Ruck- Ryder, Gawn ( Olango)
Fwd- Heeny, Walters, Mclean, D. SMith, J. Scicily, L.Ryan ( Langdon , Fritsch)
Hey guys, any thoughts on the below two options?
Option 1:
Josh Kelly
Forward rookie
27k left
Option 2:
Coniglio
Christensen
53k left
Option 1 means I have to field two forward rookies, while Option 2 means I only field one.
Cheers
Kelly has to be your priority out of those 2 options. How many rookies will you have on field if you picked option 1?
4 down back, 2 mids, 2 forwards
Thoughts?
Maybe you need to select option 2 so you have 7 on field. I think 8 is too many, you might fall behind really quick. i have 6 first year players on field and Bonner.
Cheers!
Jack Billings or Devon Smith
Billings for me. Smith will be ok early while full of steam then he'll fade whereas Jack is ready to go to another level.
big price difference though, not really a like for like compare
Both
Def- Laird, Hibberd, Naughton, Doedee, Murray, Finlayson (L.Murphy, Mihocek)
Mid- Danger, Dusty, Titch, M.Crouch, Fyfe, Coniglio, Brayshaw, Banfield (Kelly, Barry, Holman)
Ruc- Kreuzer, Gawn (Cameron)
Fwd- Heeney, Billings, Walters, D.Smith, Keefe, Fritsch (Garlett, Ryan)
113.8k left over
4 on field rookies in defence or 3 in the mids ???
Originally had Hurley but traded him for a rookie in order to upgrade to Coniglio in the mids
If Danger needs to be traded he turns into Kelly and Coniglio is potentially upgraded to him in a few rounds
Cheers
round 14 will be a challenge
Thank god Higgos back
Hey Community, Would love some input into this team that i think i'm finally happy with; Welcome as much feedback as possible 11k left in the bank DEF: Laird, Hibbered, Naughton, Doedee, Murray, Finlayson (Keeffe, Murphy) Gone pretty light in defense this year purely because I think it easily has the most available rookies for cash generation and on field scoring potential. Selected Keefe on the bench despite concerns over both job security and scoring potential but it allows be to have Sicily as my floating D3 and F4. MID: Danger, Mitchell, J Kelly, M Crouch, Merret, Fyfe, A.brayshaw, Brodie… Read more »
Other than your Ryder reasoning I reckon you've got a ripper side. As a demon supporter I'm wary on Fritsch because even if he plays early they have a recent history of giving them a taste then putting them away again, did it with Hannan last year and Oliver the year before, might play then disappear before you can cash in
Fogarty Doedee in
Pike said on TripleM
Told them today
Gives them time to organise family and friends
Question is how long does Fogarty stay in?
Only until Tex comes back
I think I'll leave him out to start, but then if he scores well and Tex returns for round 3 and Fog retains his spot, I'll get him in
What i'm thinking
Another thought, Fog starts brilliantly and demands a spot, aka SPP. You wait til round 3 to get him in but low and behold you have other more pressing issues to address and miss out entirely. Forward rookies with scoring potential are pretty thin on the ground.
Yeah so it looks like Murphy won't play
Hey community, just wondering what the go is for Buddy this year?
Hasn't been shown as much love this year as I thought he would.
Like all KPF's he tends to drop in value at some point and that's when you try and get him in.
Still deciding between Buddy and Heeney, can't have both until after the byes.
The ruck line is still doing my head in….any love for Zac Smith?
Had a good finish to the season and has a stupidly good midfield to knock it down to….
Ranger.
Not sure what happened to SC Addict and a couple of others, no one knows but this has created a couple of spots in the happy place league.

Lets get ready to rumble.
This is the real Shark move of 2018 here. Don't listen to any imposters. I was the one who mentioned Travis Cloke to John Bruyn back in 2010, although he probably wouldn't admit it. My SHARKMOVE last year was Clayton Oliver. I'm going to be revealing my 2018 SHARKMOVE soon, only to Jock Reynolds community members. I will do this by giving a clue each hour on the hour. I will answer the first guess each hour but that's it. 6pm clue: This player hasn't had the best pre-season which is why nobody's talking about him, however a certain spot… Read more »
Is it Menadue?
There was over 40 blokes who retired last year and god knows how many injuries per club and hundreds of players who did nothing in the pre season.
At least give out the position.
Weitering
I must take the first answer which was Sam Docherty. And I must inform everyone that that was infact wrong. @brownlowboy the position is actually the 2nd clue which will be revealed at 7pm (every hour on the hour remember) stayed tuned. #cantherealsharkmovepleasestanduppleasestandup
Sam Docherty
Alex Pearce, Zac "God" Dawson has retired?
McCartin?
Zorko or Oliver as an M2? I have zerret at M3.
Zorko or Zerrett?
Zorko if you like getting scores of 200
then 56 the next week
Zorko's never scored 200. He's scored 150+ 7-times in 122 games his goals are the difference
Merrett has never scored a 150 in his 80-ish games
Hey guys I’m tinerking with two teams thoughts on both:

Fwd: menengola,Heeney,Billings,Walters,D.Smith,ryan
Bench: Fritsch, narrier
I have gone big in the fwd line as there isn’t as much quality cash to be made yet IMO – second team :
Def: laird,hibberd, ryan, doedee,Murray,Finlayson
Bench: murphy,Naughton

Bench: jelly,Barry,Holman

Bench: Fogarty, narrier
It’s kinda either dusty and hibberd with rookies or Bonner, Oliver and heeney.
Thanks
Thoughts and feedback would be great
Hey Squad,
Between Coffield and Naughton, who would you take? I feel like naughton has way better job security, however i believe coff plays a more supercoach relevant game than naughton even though naughton out scored him the JLT.
What do you all think?
Not long now supercoaches!
Naughton.
Played against men (WAFL) tick
Better job security tick
Better JLT scores tick
I also argue that he may have the more SuperCoach relevant game, as intercept marks/possessions are worth gold.
My only concern on Naughton is that the coach said he has that spot because of the move of Easton Wood forward. So far Wood hasn’t fired up forward, and the coach only had to call time on that, or Naughton gets towelled up and he might move Wood back.
You can find a knock on most rookies, if you look hard enough, so maybe this a little churlish. But just made me wary of trusting him as a lock
If u were to not start one of danger, titch or dusty, who would it be? And why?
Best I can come up with is Dusty does usually thrown in the odd poor game. He’s not immune to the odd 60/70 point game.
Dusty because a fend off that touches the throat is contact above the shoulder and in 2018 it will correctly be a FA. even if the other player bends their knees
BVC and patch
Jump back into the happy place league
Code: 123493
Lets get this party started. Bring on Thursday.
Room for one more?
Will see keen.
Gotta give bvc and patch first choice as they are orginial members.
I still have an extra league spot, so if some of the original members don't join hit me up.
Will do DM
Would love to give it a go too TRIG!
Hey boys loving the new articles and podcast this year. Just curious, is there any chance of Jock or Higgo coming on as a guest during the year?
Our door is always open to them. Truth be told, it's their door. And it's more of a tarp than a door anyway.
its 7pm folks, that means it's time for the second clue for the SHARKMOVE 2018 player. Incase you missed the rules earlier I can only answer the 1st guess. At 6pm the community's guess was Sam Docherty which was wrong. Boy oh boy, what a pod that would have been. The 2nd clue is: As leaked earlier the 7pm clue was to reveal the position this player is classified. I can confirm that this player has been classed as a FWD by our friends at champion data. Wow! That knocks out roughly 75% of players. Am I making this too… Read more »
P.McCartin
Rory Lobb
Good guess
As per rules I can only accept the first answer which was P.McCartin. This is wrong however. Standby for the 8pm clue.
Onya brownlowboy ya dingus
You're the clown who said Docherty
Hey i resemble that remark!
Lol, hey play nice!
Hurley and o’shea
Or
Lloyd and bonner
I’m leaning towards option two as I want 6 rookies rather than 7 starting on the field
Thoughts?
Lloyd n bonner imo
With Crows and Pies announcing debutants, might be unlikely for Murphy and Mihocek.
That is great news. I had almost scrubbed them off after Tex on radio this morning said Doedee and Fog wouldnt play.
Will Brad Crouch being out for 8 weeks impact Darcy Fogarty job security?
Cracking podcast boys! Hoping some peeps can give me their thoughts on my team after I've gone through it time and time again changing things up before probably settling on this: DEF: Hurley, Laird, Hibberd, Sicily, O'Shea, Doedee (Finlayson, Mihocek) MID: Dangerfield, J.Kelly, Zorko, Fyfe, Shuey, Brayshaw, Dow, T.Kelly (Banfield, Barry, Holman) RUCK: Gawn, Sandilands (Olango) FWD: Billings, Walters, D.Smith, Petracca, Poholke, Fritsch (Garlett, Ryan) Going to start Danger whether he plays or not, J.Kelly could still become T.Mitch if I decide I don't want another POD (32K in the bank still), and Walters keeps changing with Mundy. Rookies will… Read more »
With the lack of fwd rooks Sammy, I'd swing Sic fwd and grab an extra def rook.
Sandi and Shooey bit dodge but could be ok, nice work.
its 8pm folks and time for the 3rd clue for the SHARKMOVE player of 2018.
What do we know so far? He is classified as a FWD, a spot has opened up in his side due to injury or retirement of teammate and he hasn't had a good pre season which has made his podness go through the roof!
Clue 3 is: The club he plays for is NOT Melbourne based. As previously stated I can only accept the 1st guess. Good luck community!
Himmelberg – GWS
He said FWD…
Rory Lobb
As per rules I can only accept the 1st answer which is Himmelberg. I'm afraid this is not correct. Standby for the 9pm clue.
Yeah okay I give up someone else can have a go
The lobb guess still hasn't gone through so someone might want to guess it first next time
John Coleman
Nevermind, just found out he retired
Lol.👍
Lewis taylor
Hmmm but he had a pretty good JLT I thought
Its Derek's mate Barlow.
Ok – take 2
Higgs, if you’re out there! Team version 8265…
D: Laird, Hibberd, Naughton, Doedee, Murray, Finlayson (Keefe, Murphy);
M: Danger, Titch, Dusty, Fyfe, Cripps, Cogs, Brayshaw, Barry (Kelly, Holman, Garlett);
R: Martin, Gawn (Cameron/Olango);
F: Heeney, Lambert, Smith, Petracca, Sicily, Fogarty (Fritsch, Ryan).
Questions:
Do I change Garlett to Banfield (lose Swing with Fwd)?
Do I change Cameron to Olango for the captain loop?
Am I going mad?
Good podcast gents! The humour is starting to flow! I am not starting Patrick Dangerfield until I am absolutely sure he is playing. Even if he is named, I will wait to the last minute just in case he is not a late out. If he definately lines up, I have $209K in the bank to trade out Luke Parker and replace him with Danger. (No trades lost) If Danger does miss, I will let Parker do his stuff and score me some juicy points. Then in round 2 I will reasses things. I parker who looks in great nick… Read more »
It was going to be Oliver. Same game, so easy. Also doesn’t have round 14 bye. But now he is in doubt also.
Oliver in doubt now as well?? He is a starter in my side at the moment. What is the problem with Oliver?
Copped a knock to his knee in the second JLT match
I remember that, but thought nothing of it at the time. Wow. Imagine both Danger AND Oliver being both late outs. Some serious scheit will hit the fan! Will be keeping a close eye on Mr Oliver…
I want to do it but there aren't really any players from the last two games that I would be confident keeping in my team. I have been burnt by Sydney midfielders too many times to consider them. Maybe Oliver but ideally I would start with both.
I have been lucky with Parker. Did not have him last year, but had him the year before where he was very good. The 2018 JLT games suggest he could be back to full fitness and back to his best. At $537K he is a nice POD over Cripps.
At the moment I have selected the top 6 midfielders by average from last year apart from Ablett who I have replaced with Fyfe.
Last year I had Hanners and JPK in the midfield and I think the year before I had 2 sydney mids as well. I could have pushed deeper into the top 1000 without them.
Hawk, I’m holding Danger, expecting him to miss Round 1 only and will run with Titch or Fyfe as C. It means a rook comes in off the bench (Kelly, Banfield Barry), so points conceded. Don’t want the hassle of trading him back in if he goes bang and pulls out a couple of 150’s straight up. I like the Parker starting pick and hope it works for you though.
Don't love this approach since a trade is a trade and luxury trades aren't necessary
I have an idea to use Dusty as my coin flip , my Harvey Dent (Two Face). I would love to see what happens with Danger in one game before putting him in my team anyway. I predict Danger will score 100 110 in the first, and would like to see how he shapes up with slight niggle and Gablett. Danger is extremely expensive. -So I will vice Dusty. – If Dusty scores 100 to 120 I go Danger on Sunday as captain. If he doesn't play I still have Dusty's score, save a trade with chance of 110+ if… Read more »
Planning trades that early is asking for trouble
Thanks for sharing some of your thoughts over recent posts Wow. I think I have finally finished.
No worries that’s what I’m here for mate
Agree on the podcast – it did occur to me while listening that Lek and Patch are now starting build their own brand into this and the graph has been going up steeply.
I'm not starting Danger or Dusty. I have a view that all players are overpriced at the start of the year and it won't take much for those uber-premos to drop in value and be open for the snapping up.
Yeah but as Wow is implying, its more trades used too. I think the biggest fall comes from Danger. The others are worth losing a little money on. If Danger falls it is the biggest hit of any player. He is very overpriced. Yet for some reason I'm still trying to get him in even as a bench for round one. Oh crikey I'm going mad.
Danger may rise, fall whatever, but he's the only player in the whole AFL who scores so many big tons so often, more than any other player.
Pay the price!
Trust me. I will pay the right price for Patrick Dangerfield.
Cheers mate! I love a good hypothetical but every time I try to plan early trades it falls apart and something goes wrong. I just don't trust the Supercoach gods to let me execute a plan like that. So much can go wrong but if you're confident, go for it.
If he misses two you're laughing.
I'm going with Titch and Fyfe as my C&VC,for the first five rounds,then plan to get Danger in round six.If there wasn't any doubt about Dangers fitness I wouldn't even be thinking about it,he's usually first picked for the mids,but with Ablett there and now the hammy,I want to wait and see how it goes.Yes I know it will probably bite me on the bum,but that's what I'm doing.
Hey Hawk, I wouldn't bother mate, just keep him I say, it's only one game, even if he misses, you can make up the points during the season if you have a solid team, why burn a trade if you don't have to, Leagues don't start until round 3 anyway..and most of us should play for Leagues first and rank second, winning the 50 grand is like hoping to win Lotto. The overwhelming issue most teams had last year was a lack of trades at the end. If he misses round 1, he'll be back round 2 for sure, it… Read more »
G'day community, could I please have some thoughts on my team:
$17.9k in the bank
Def: Laird, Hibberd, Rance, Mills, Naughton, O'Shea (Keefe, Mihocek)
Mid: Danger, Dusty, Titch, Fyfe, Cripps, Andrew Brayshaw, Banfield, Kelly (Garlett, Barry, Holman)
Ruck: Gawn, Naitanui (Balta)
Fwd: Heeney, Billings, Smith, Sicily, English, Fritsch (Giles-Langdon, Ryan)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, TIA
Nice side on paper, but your team is extremely cash generation weak. No Doedee?, no Murray?, Garlett unlikely to start, Dom Barry poor job security, and Timothy English onfield? He is is unlikely to play at all come round 1. The core team looks good, but you need to fix your rookies, and fast IMO. Good luck mate!
Thanks so much for the help. I really appreciate it.
No worries at all.
Is it worth putting Allen Christiansen in my fwd line or should I stick to another rookie?
Depends on your set up James. He’s not a bad option at F5 but with so few rooks to start this season you should have a good set of forwards at F1-4. Wait for selections tomorrow/Thursday re rook options.
At the moment my fwd line is Heeney, Greene, Billings, Venables, Fritsch and Ryan
So Christensen at F4 is a risk as it means 2 rooks at F5 and 6. The options of Bell, McCartin (StK) are worth looking at for F4 and 5, then Ryan or Fritsch at F6?
This is the rest of my team, I’d really appreciate some more suggestions, cheers.
Def: Laird, Hibberd, Sicily, Naughton, Doedee, Murray BENCH: finlayson, Murphy
Mid: Dusty, Titch, Kelly, Zorko, Fyfe, Cripps, Brodie, Banfield BENCH: Kelly, Barry, Holman
Rucks: Ryder, Gawn BENCH: Cameron
Fwd: Heeney, Greene, Billings, Venables, Fristch, Ryan BENCH: Keefe, ZGL
3 rooks in the fwd line is too many this year mate.
I have McCartin and a few others ahead of him at the present contending for F5
Yeah, I am also considering Mc Cartin at $234K. I know he is a bit mid pricey, but the kid is young and so much upside there now that Saint Nick has departed. His JLT form pretty good too. At the end of the day, we have to take a risk somewhere in the forward line this year. I have tossed up Tom Bell, Christensen, and even Rayner the rook. Right now, my gut says Mc Cartin.
Ryder or Naitanui?
Ryder easily.
If anyone can chuck me a review, that'll be grouse
Def: Laird, Hibberd, Savage, Finlayson, Murray, Doedee, (Payne, Murphy)
Mid: Danger, Titch, Zorko, Fyfe, Parker, Coniglio, Brayshaw (Freo), Kelly (Banfield, Barry, Holman)
Ruck: Gawn, Nank, (Pittonet)
Fwd: Heeney, Billings, Walters, Smith, Fritsch, Giles-Langdon, (Venables, Garlett)
I wouldn't pick Savage if someone had a gun to my head, however if you're fine with the risk pick him. Apart from that team looks solid.
What's the risk with him? I'm going mainly off statistics but he just seems to rack up points
Look at his scoring history for starters. His role could also change at any moment. Has trap written all over him.
You are too light on in your FWD line IMO. Giles Langdon on field? Not a snowballs chance in hell of that happening in my side. Venables and Garlett probably wont play round one either. Payne, Murphy and Pittonet are probably non starters also. Just my take buddy.
How do you like this?
Out: PAYNE, CONIGLIO, VENABLES
IN: NAUGHTON, O'Connor, SICILY

Just dont see Sicily being a consistently good scorer tbh
Hello community, it's 9pm Australian Daylight Time and that means time for another clue. So far we know he's a FWD. He hasn't had a good pre season and a spot has opened up in his team which he will surely grab with 2 hands. We also know he does NOT play for a Melbourne based team (doesn't rule out Geelong) As normal, I can only accept the first answer, good luck community. Clue Number 4: As per Clue 3 we already know he doesn't play for a Melbourne based club. I can also add he does not play for… Read more »
Rory Lobb
Shares his name with Rory Laird, Plays for a non-Melbourne team, in GWS and If freed up by the retirement of Shane Mumford
Lewis Taylor is the answer
And which two Adelaide players have the name Lewis?
Along with Sloane and Atkins
If he plays Round 1 he is in my team also. Averages 100 when played as sole ruck (3 games = small sample size I admit)
Yep not sure if this one is a shark move. I think most people recognise less than 400k for a 1st ruck in a top team is a sweet deal. The only reason he has low ownership is an injury interrupted pre season. If he's named round 1, expect his ownership to soar. I for one have him in and have for the last month but will second guess myself if not named!
It is HarryH. Unless of course you're Harry Houdini and trying to give us false hope through an illusion spell!
Hey guys,
I was thinking of going in with Defense 3,0,3, Midfield 4,1,3 and Forward 4,1,1. This way, less exposure up forward and more cash generation across other lines. Team looks like:
Def: Laird, Hibberd, J.Lloyd, Naughton, Murray, Finlayson (Doedee, Keeffe)
Mid: D.Martin, T.Mitchell, M.Crouch, Z.Merrett, Coniglio, A.Brayshaw (freo), Brodie, T.Kelly (Banfield, Barry, Holman)
Ruc: Gawn, Nankervis (D.Cameron)
Fwd: Greene, Billings, Walters, McLean, D.Smith, Fogarty (Fritsch, L.Ryan)
You guys think I'm losing too many points on other lines, or do you think this structure looks competitive?
should read 2 1 3 mids 4 1 3 fwds 2 3 1 If Coniglio is a midpricer then so are LLOYD WALTERS MCLEAN and SMITH Cameron is a waste I would go OLANGO and definitely Comiglio to DANGER .Forwards and Defence is tops and zerrett/crouch are good choices
Yeh, fair enough. Cheers for the Olango tip, did he get elevated or something?
No just good for the C loophole,since WCE play most of their games at the end of the rounds.
I have 5 grand left and no Coffield, Brayshaw, Fogarty. I also have Mirra… Should I have more in the kitty?
And if so what do you recommend?
Back: Laird, Hibberd, Shaw, Naughton, Doedee, Murray (Finlayson, Mirra)
Mid: Danger, Titch, Kelly, Cripps, Coniglio, Brodie, Banfield (Barry, Kelly, Holman)
Rucks: Goldy, Gawn (Cameron)
Fwd: Heeney, Dahlhaus, Smith, Petracca, Fritsch, Ryan (Dawson, Garlett)
I'm still trying to work out how the hell you only have 5k left with that team.I would like to know who your other mid is as well,whether he is a premo or a rookie.Apart from that there are only a few things I would change.Out of the team would go Shaw, Goldy and Dahlhaus. In to the team could come Mills,for Shaw,Brayshaw just needs to be your first picked rookie in the mids,Nank or Ryder for Goldy,Walters or McLean for Dahlhaus. Hope that helps,ps I also prefer Buddy over Heeney,but that's just me.
Other mid was Fyfe. I hate the rucks this year. Thinl Goldy can be back in top foem though. Even with nobody to hit to should average 100 I hope. Shaw is a risk but showed his old kick happy quarterback form in JLT. Mills won't get much mid time. Dahl I agree with you. I've gone him down to McLean. Still don't have enpugh to get Brayshaw in unless it's for Brodie. I dropped Coniglio and added Brayshaw, Coffield and Christenson but thought 'what am i doing?'. Cogs should average 105, good for m8 until a late luxury trade.… Read more »
sorry Gator I can only accept the 1st answer which was Rory Lobb. I can confirm that Rory Lobb is………………………………….officially the SHARKMOVE player of 2018 I can hear the steak knives getting sharpened as I write this. Yes I know he has been injured all pre season, yada yada yada, but a sharkmove will never be an obvious player because that would make the purpose of the SHARKMOVE redundant. Fun fact: he had one of the best hit out to advantage ratios in 2017. He has the best midfields at his feet. And perhaps more importantly, Dawson Simpson is rubbish.… Read more »
… but lots of people would have Lobb
If he was going to play
Sounds like he’s a chance for round 1.
True, as is Simpson. It's unfortunate, he was in ny first draft of a team but if he's underdone and sharing ruck duties you'd be brave to select him.
Any suggestions? Cheers guys.

Mid: Dusty, Titch, Kelly, Zorko, Fyfe, Cripps, Brodie, Banfield BENCH: Kelly, Barry, Holman
Rucks: Ryder, Gawn BENCH: Cameron
Fwd: Heeney, Greene, Billings, Venables, Fristch, Ryan BENCH: Keefe, ZGL
You're forward line is far too weak. Most of the rookies you have there are highly doubtful for Rd 1. I suggest moving Sicily forward and trading venebles for someone like O'Connor down back
What am I missing with Will Brodie? Seems to be in a lot of sides and hasn't shown much to date… At the high rookie price, I just don;t see it. Someone show me the counter argument please… Cheers
Averaged 70 across JLT
Second year player
Mid time at the Suns
Extra pre season, bigger body, ablettless midfield & a reasonable JLT. Yes please
Is pendles a good option? Off year last year but gun previous few years?
Seriously considering moving Kelly down to Pendles to free up cash.
Its a tough one he could certainly get back to his best
GUYS BONT OR ZERRET?
ZERRETT <3
M2 for me! Zerrett is a proven gun!
I'm unsure my self Ryano interested what others think!!!
Sometimes you need to take a risk. In my team.
Free will see plenty of the ball down back.
o meara and rioli or Coniglio and Zac Giles Langdon?
could go armitage instead of o meara
If anyone wants to join a league that I've made that includes all the 'expert' coaches then the code is 140292
Can anyone post The Phantom's midfield post from earlier today? I know its' stingy but some of us can't afford to subscribe to every little channel
Danger,Kelly,Fyfe,Cripps,Coniglio,Brayshaw,Brodie,Kelly – Clark,Banfield,Holman – he /she said will start with Danger in his team even if he's not named
Beautiful human
Brayshaw or Brodie – both look like they will start R1 but I can only have 1, or should I try and get both ?
Both
Both if you can fit them if not Brayshaw on JLT average but i would personally flip a coin
Both
906803 need some JR community to join and kick some media butt.
Have all the media nobs in.
First in best dressed.
If a couple of people can chuck my team a review I'd be stoked! Haven't finalised rookies and bit sketchy on Bonner and Ellis-Yolmen but have selected them cos i reckon they will probably boosst in value a fair bit. Thoughts appreciated.
Laird, Hibberd, Lloyd, Bonner, Doedee, Murray (O'Connor, Finlayson)
Martin, Mitchell, Kelly, Merrett, Coniglio, Ellis-Yolmen (or JOM?), Rayner, Kelly (Banfield, Barry, Holman)
Gawn, Nankervis (Pittonet)
Heeney, Billings, Walters, Caddy, Bell, Fritsch (Keeffe, Ryan)
Like it mate. Not sure on Lloyd's output when McVeigh is back, but the rest is excellent. Two questions:
Ellis-Yolman? Is he there to make cash or points? Not sure he'll do enough of either in that slot
How will you pick up Danger? Is there spare cash about?
Otherwise looking good despite my concerns on Caddy.
Cheers Patch. I'm confident with Lloyd when Mcveigh is in the team (Swans supporter haha). Ellis-Yolmen is a good player but job security probably isnt ideal with Adelaide having such great depth- cya.
Have fiddled around with other stuff, fully set apart from whether M7 is dow brayshaw or stephenson.
Bugger all cash left.
Laird, Hibberd, Lloyd, Bonner, Doedee, Murray (Finlayson, L Murphy)
Martin, Mitchell, Kelly, Merrett, Coniglio, Angus Brayshaw, Dow, Banfield (Kelly, Barry, Holman)
Gawn, Nankervis (Cameron)
Heeney, Billings, Robbie Gray, Caddy, Bell, Fritsch (Keeffe, Ryan)
Bang bang
Would go Brayshaw over Rayner
cheers mate i agree.
Laird, Hibberd, Lloyd, Bonner, Doedee, Murray (Finlayson, L Murphy)
Martin, Mitchell, Kelly, Merrett, Coniglio, Angus Brayshaw, Dow, Banfield (Kelly, Barry, Holman)
Gawn, Nankervis (Cameron)
Heeney, Billings, Robbie Gray, Caddy, Bell, Fritsch (Keeffe, Ryan)
Savage and Keefe
or
Sicily and Christensen
Hey KSinny, I think option 2 is much more solid. Both those guys will start.
Cheers I was also thinking Sicily at D3 and Fogarty at F5 now that it seems he will be named. Thoughts? Better than Christensen?
Option 2 is safer out of the 2
The option without Savage
Agree!
None of the above! But I guess 2 if I had to.
Loved hearing Higgo back on the airwaves tonight …………….. although I'm not sure I have sizable enough plums to take his advice on McCartin.
Think I've finished tinkering at version 372 of HAWKSHANK REDEMPTION. Any feedback welcome.

FWD : Heeney, Walters, McLean, Smith, Sicily, Fritsch (Ryan, Miers)
and still with a bit of $$$$ in the war chest
Like your side Goodo, and the Bonner pick, I've got him too, hoping he gets a start and stays for awhile, should score well and make some money.
Cheers mate. Fingers, toes and everything else crossed. Seems to score alright when he gets a game.
I was wondering what happened to all the comments from the first 9 hours of this thread? Does anyone know why it was deleted?
I noticed that as well Russty,when I clicked on my history to get back into it this morning,it said it didn't exist.
Hiya John, bloody weird for sure, wonder if admin can explain it?
No my only private one is Sons and the other good one,Jolly Roger,the last spot went four days ago,we have a lot of activity on the chat&comment in that one,those three I put up to fill went really fast as well.If I had known last week I could have got you in to the Jolly Roger,it was on 17 teams for a while.
No worries mate, I might start a last minute league and see what happens 🙂
They messsed up the edit mate. Left some naughty language in there directed at the DrSC lads.

Money in war chest to upgrade Selwood to Danger later, recon he will drop a bit
Let me know what you think about the fwds
Thanks
Cogs or Libba for M6 Community? or go with 3 rookies on field? Current mids are Danger, Zorko, Crouch, Merret, Fyfe, M6*, Brayshaw, Brodie (Banfield, Kelly, Holman)
I’d go Cogs or Libba. Who are you leaning towards out of those two Gord. Cogs just for mine but very close.
currently have cogs in there at the moment. Libba is that bit cheaper, more of a pod and i will need to upgrade them later
DEF:Laird, Hibberd, Sicily, Naughton, Doedee, Murray (Finlayson, Murphy).
MID: Dangerfield, Mitchell, Fyfe, Cripps, Coniglio, Libba, Brayshaw, Banfield (Kelly, Barry, Holman).
RUC: Kreuzer, Gawn (Cameron).
FWD: Billings, Walters, McLean, Smith, Stephenson, Fritsch (Ryan, Carrier (LH)).
130K in the bank.
Midfield might be too thin with the the two mid pricers. Thoughts?
nice looking team. I personally wouldnt start all 3 of cripps, cogs and libba they are cheap for what they should produce but i dont see them as keepers
True that’s my concern. Do you reckon downgrade Kreuzer to Nank or Martin and upgrade Libba?
Same. Try going teo big guns and a rookie, say, Kelly, Merret and Brodie instead. See what that feels like
I’ve got to have one of cogs or Libba I’m afraid. Looking at downgrading Kreuzer currently to Nank and then upgrading Libba to Kelly.
Why? Kruse is a lock. Set and forget. Don’t put to many players in your team that you just want to trade. Lib and cog won’t be top 10
I’m not going to have both Libba and Cogs but want to run with one as I think there’s value there.
I reckon Cog is more likely to be top ten than Libbe. Coniglio is a lock for mine.
Cripps will be a keeper
Second year SC so looking for a breakout. Any help / suggestions on my team welcome. Especially whether I have the right balance of premos across each line? As not many forward rookies around, have gone heavier there and lighter in defense…have $84k left. Should I spend it now?
Def- Laird, Hibberd, Naughton, Doedee, Coffield, Finlayson (Keeffe, Murray)
Mids – Danger, TMitch, Zorko, Fyfe, Parker, Brayshaw, Brodie, Banfield (Kelly, Holman, Barry)
Rucks – Martin & Gawn (Olongo)
Forw – Heeney, Billings, Walters, Greene, Petracca, Fritsch (Ryan, Garlett)
Solid team! Like that fwd line, it is heavy but you shouldnt need to do any trades in there apart from one upgrade. I like to keep some cash in the bank for a corrective trade early
Team looks solid mate, strong with some smart pod selections. Zorko and Parker are both guns. Keep an eye on Barry to see if he gets in ports best 22
Very good team. Might be ready to go
Hey Guys, and Girls, I have been forced to abandon a League I was committed to from weeks ago due to the administrator being a slack prick and at present, only has it half full with 2 days to go…so bugger him! I'm going to start my own league called ''Last Minute Rags" League code 372021. I would only like committed , full season players, who will not crap out and abandon their team because their baby crapped it's pants on Saturday afternoon, all are welcome, as long as you are a player who will stay with it for the… Read more »
Bumperama…Oilyboids 🙂
Good luck russty I’m in. You seem like you’ve got you’re head screwed on right so should be good competition.
Dont wanna join the happy place now?
Trig is there any more room?
Ah crap Trigga I assumed it'd be full mate..sorry, hopefully I'll still be welcome next year, think we're in 2 or 3 together anyways 🙂
What is the code Trigga?
I'm IN!!
I'm in, Good luck everyone!
Cheers Russty Im in!
Hey guys…thanks for entering everyone, let's have a good season 🙂
League # 893001
SC 2018 CHAMPS just started. All welcome. Cheers
any chance theres 2 spots left?
Hi Community. Would appreciate some thoughts on these please?
1. Billings (F2) & Nank (R2) or
Lambert (F2) & Martin (R1)? Have Gawn already.
2. Oloango loop or use Cameron as R3?
3. Garlett bench mid swing with Fwds or Banfield (no swing)?
Nank and Billings
Olango
Banfield
Thanks Dac. Will wait to see If Archie Smith is picked. Looks like Garlett may play?
Garlett will play. Reluctant with Banfield as both Hills are yet to come back.
Yep, just to make it a slightly harder decision.
Both players a risk. Sleepless night ahead.
Mambert.
Olango Bloom.
Banfield.
Thanks Whatya!
Mambert feeling like a better POD option, only concern is Archie Smith.

No many in Bank should i down grade sicily to a Taberner or Christisen for money in bank who is team good
1K IN BANK Should i not get Luke Ryan or not get one of my forwards
I like this team a lot Gaz. Yep I'm not sold on Sicily yet, and if he sets the world on fire for a defender is it going to cost us much to upgrade or get him later ? not really, not much to miss out on there. I'm thinking you could take a risk position there……..what about McCartin? Jackson.T (ruck duties…..)? I like Luke Ryan personally but can understand he's probably as risky or more risky than Sicily, but opinion is opinion. And I don't rate Taberner or Christensen, has Taberner changed roles or teams? if not forget him.… Read more »
Luke Ryan OR Sicily
Naughton or Coffiled
Sissy because DPP otherwise either. See who is named and where with Naughton or Coff leaning toward Coff lollie for JS.
I like Ryan personally but take your pick. Naughton should have solid JS due to doggies down Adams and possibly others I forget. Research those factors thoroughly.
Dale morris too
Ryan and Naughton.
Sicily will burn you and coffield probably wont play round 1

Thanks
I like it. Don't like Parker atm, but if you do nice POD. Also would prefer one rookie forward on field instead of two. Wait and see who's named I guess.
I jumped on Parker when I saw him last week. I know it was only JLT but it was the way he was running to every contest, he had a look in his eye that said he was ready for a massive year.
The swans will not start 0-6 again.
Yep parker looks set for a big one, and you're spot on I don't think they'll be starting like last year.
Your actually tempting me Smoky and Derek. Would free up some cash for me so I don't have to take the weitering/tab risk in my team. Going to watch a couple of replay swans matches. After last year with having treloar and hanneberry in my team. I'm reluctant to take on a premium POD. I want the top 8 mids this year only. 🙂
nup not changing lol.
Defense is thiiiiiin. Which is ok if other lines are solid. But let's face it that forwardline is about as solid as an ikea product left outside for a couple of years. Christen-sun is a massive risk, and Stephenson I had to search for his crappy scores because I known I'd seen him but he disappeared off my radar so quick I forgot who he was. Averaging 50 over the JLT and almost 200K? Nah yeah just friggin Nah mate. I hope you can prove me wrong but I fear that team if it goes poorly will be way behind… Read more »
Hey Smoky Don't you think The doggies will chuck a rookie out for a mediocre game before SK would? I think SK would give the rookie an extra chance. I know there are a couple down for the dogs but they still have plenty don't they?
posted on wrong thread sorry Smoky this is meant to be up one. 😀
I'm really not sure on the best JS on those. Haven't researched as thoroughly this year as others to be honest.
Who gets dropped from Freo when the Hills come back. Is Banfield one?
I notice there are a number of leagues being started from within the community (of which I've joined a few). I suggest once these are all finalised, we collate them and have a weekly summary on how each are tracking.
we Might see if we can organise a champions league.
People who finish first in their league prior to finals go into JR Champions of Champions Final Series.
Just need someone with a spreadsheet.
Last position in team. Weitering or Taberner? Why? I know different lines but I can put Sissy in either. One of these two will be my risk. Although I am leaning to Weitering.
Sicily is a risk too. There is no way he counted as a premo yet there's nothing to back that up other than a few games late last year, and remember he did get a 29 SC with 89% TOG? During that patch of excellence. A small patch of form is one thing, a proven scorer is another.
yeah true. I guess I actually have 4 risks in my team but one of these two will be the risky risk risk. 😀
Yeah I hear ya. Just pointing out not to count chickens before they've hatched. made that mistake before thinking I have 15 keepers when in reality I had 10 lol.
Jaeger (M7) and Bell (F5)
Or
Brodie (M8) and Curnow/Robinson/Caddy (F4)
Brodie and caddy. Yep i said it. Had caddy in my team, feel like Richmond being successful will translate to more points for him, but have since looked at myself in the mirror and ditched him.
