Question:
Which is the better combo?
Option 1: Barlow+ Rich
votes: 16
Option 2: Rocky + Rookie
votes: 14
I, like pretty much everyone, am trying to find the cash to get Rocky in. Turning Rich into a rookie nets a roughly 100k which is of great assistance in turning Barlow into Rockliff. Rich obviously has great JS, but his scoring output may only be slightly more then a good rookie.
I figure Barlow (110)+Rich (75) vs Rocky (130) + Rookie (60). This prediction gives a slight advantage to Rocky+Rookie.
Thoughts?
You're not the only one who has been debating that. It's going to be a few weeks before there's a concrete answer.
Rocky + Rookie would be a better option in the long term imo. Id be going Rocky.
You also get a better captain score with Rocky, so that's another 10 points
Will Beams effect Rocky's score? I think so. Lets see how they play together in their next NAB game.
Rocky and Rookie easily. Not sold on NVB

I think he will effect his scoring... Positively. Beams will take attention off Rocky in an allready stacked midfield.
Yes trust in Rocky
love the rock but i think there will b a price reduction early on
GAJ + rich
He was slutting it up again last night. three marks in a row. 97 from 76% game time going at 50% effort.

I'm not worried if he looses some value anytime I just want him in my team for the monster scores he chucks out that's what wins you matches in fantasy footy not if someone drops $20k one week
12 v 12 good question this one. :o
I've been listening to Roy fromDTTalk too much, Can I have Rocky, Beams and Rich?

The boys love Rocky, Roy certainly does. Pretty confident Beams and Rocky will be in me team before years end.
Just cant start that ridiculous price, ill have Rich because of his ultra cheap price but I will be starting someone like Griffen, J Steven, Dangerfield to swap for Rocky at an opportune time :)

Are you concerned with Reddens start as well? Been in my team all pre season and now I'm considering taking him out!

and when will that be??
I can foresee Rocky dropping to around a 125 average (my rd1 prediction is 120 btw) and that's still more expensive than Gaj
It's not a simple sideswap, it's an upgrade for practically all premos, and that's for an "underperformer"

Exactly, you're not going to get enough money to do a freeman or Rich upgrade to him. Your gunna have to trade a pendlebury or Selwood

Nah. A lot of his points come from tackles and no one really tackles in the nab (Same goes for Rocky).
I'm currently loading up on tackle specialists
it's great too, because they normally get poor NAB scores, so they're pretty much PODs
I had rocky to begin the season. Then for money troubles put GAJ in. Then due to GAJ probably not being ready to go in round 1. Im back to rocky. I think rocky and a rookie is he best option. There should be some good rookies in the mids. There usually is.
