Title: Final Team
Post by: Chelskiman on July 20, 2012, 03:50:58 PM
May as well post my team up.  The following represents my full strength team (obviously!).  I'm interested to see how you guys rate it.  Currently 5th in my league having lost four times this season; two of them being shock losses, one against a good opponent and one in round 13 where I was hit hard with donuts.  I can claim that I'm the only team to beat the leader in my league who sits at 13-1.  I sit just one game outside the top 4, but the guy in 4th plays the leader and myself in the next two weeks, so I'm quite confident I can make top four.  Anyway, my team...

That is a very good team Chel.

Don't love Zorko as a lock on the field, but that's the only negI could find.

9.5 / 10

There's only a few differences from my team so naturally I love it! Zorko is a gun mate he's an F7 all the way. You have the same ruck bench as me which is an issue with neither of them playing.
I give you a 9 coz there's room for improvement (ie; Lewis to Johnson?) but it's a great side!

I would have loved Stevie J or Chappy, but I felt I needed to get rid of Giles.  I brought in Jacobs which took a chuck of funds which meant I wasn't left with many options, and I still had Zaharakis in my team, so I could only afford a player of around $400k.  I could of gone Goodes, but I like the way the Hawks play and Lewis has been playing well lately.  It's a mini risk, but it could also be a good POD in the finals.

Yeah there's always the chance Stevie J will pump out a 60 (or be a late withdrawal) when you need him the most. And Lewis has had a reasonably consistent year so he's definitely a good option!

I kinda needed it after having Buddy and Robbo out then having Dickson and Adams out who would normally cover them.

Backs: Brilliant! 9.5/10
Mids: Wow, you have the big 4 in Swan, Ablett Boyd and Pendles, with solid backup. Sexton is a very minor problem. 9.5/10
Rucks: Good, but not brilliant cover. 9/10
Fwds: Good POD in Lewis, cover could be a bit better. 9/10

Overall: 9.25/10  A top team, well done! Especially with two trades left.
