# finally happy with this team. Believe I Have good strengh as depth in line up with solid uniques set to explode. please don't rude team as I have gone different with no Ablett and no buddy. belwive both players will go down in price and my upgrade later if needed. Overall gone different structure then most and have advoided the standard carbon copy every one seems to go this year with first 2 players normally being ablett and pendleburey.
Please rate for rate and tell me what you think. All feedback is welcome.
Not even sure how you can afford its that good mate
great team cannot fault it at all. Good luck
Looks good mate.
Def: similar to mine
MIDS: solid with 4 x premo and Moloney who should be good if he can score well? Contemplating adding him myself
Rucks: same as mine
FWDS: unique!
I like it!

Leagues full mate
Yeah regarding league it's not full yet mate
Very Solid Team here
Just watch the bye situation when trading upgrading. At the moment you have 7 Round 13 bye prems.
Just watch your rookies for those being named. Do not think Paparone will make the cut for Round 1.

don't have current team up appreciate the thought though ;)
Cool no problems
Solid team i'm just a bit worried about a weeker midfield but should be competitive enough
I'd look to downgrade Siposs to a sub 300k or rook and upgrade Mitchell to Wines, other than that looks all good
Thanks mate. Will look into doing they and antes my team more after this weekend.
a very robust team; I think Jacob's will have a good season and I'm getting onboard.
Plenty of room for growth in the forwards, too!
solid team... what can i say.
Thanks mate I just hope it pays off and I do good.

true, as long as you dont play good in our league match LOL ;D
Yeah will try not to mate. The joy of working in an environment where you have time to read all about the players and stats. Just can't wait for te footy to start. I've changed my team as you can see so many times. Deffinately set with this lineup and fingers crossed I do well. Speak soon mate and good luck as well in our league.

Runs deep but quite a few risky picks. Wright is a good POD. The other 3 could all backfire and whilst I understand your reluctance to get Buddy, I think the combination fo Buddy + Varcoe + Byrnes is better than De Boer + Christensen + Siposs ( Total ave of 266 vs 230 and they are cheaper as well - my stats which are obviously biased.)
Thanks for that mate. Nah quite settled now with this team. Yeah I understand not having ablett or franklin could hinder a grey deal but prepared to take the risk mate. Just didn't like the idea of having a carbon copy team like majority of people this year. The only way I believe one can win minus the bye rounds where my team should be all set with upgraded players by then. I just wanted to throw a spanner into the works this year as hopefully my pod that I pick fire up and become keepers if not then they can be fast upgrades as we have alot of trades this year. Thanks mate.
Very unique team haven't seen one like this congrat and I can't fault
Thank you mate
Hi fellow supercoach leaguers I've started a supercoach league called my bironas where I select a few individuals via pm who I see are worthy challenges to be in the league and who I think will be serious coaches and not in this for a joke. The supercoach code for entry is 863634. And would like it if you joined.
Kind regards Sean

Can't really add to this, like the team very solid BUT
Wright was tagging Murphy on Saturday, as a result neitehr scored well, and a great reason to have NEITHER in your team.
Not sure Christensen is ready to step up especially with Chapp still there and varcoe and menzel returning....
Siposs i think is also a year early to be getting on but who knows?
Same with Atley but I like him a lot.
as I said otherwise a great team, and they are just my opinions.
good luck for 2013
N-Dub,
As luck would happen I joined your league last night.... :)
You have great depth, and a great looking team. It will serve you well early on! The only question I ask is, is there enough opportunity to make money and improve your team as the season goes on?
This team is so different, but at the same time it warrants being looked at and current consensus on strategy being questioned..
Questions being....
No Franklin, Ablett, or Pendles. Or at worst one of these players. From what I see you have spent wisely without these players, but will you be left behind early without them. IMO 2 of Buddy, Ablett, Pendles Swann will be the minimum necessary.
Def: Runs deep, all good picks..
Mid: Murphy; Can he handle a tag this year. Wright tagged him and he struggled. We know what Murphy will eventually achieve but is this the year he does it?
Ruck: Stock!
Fwd: Depth, you have penty of it, but what happens if the Sauce Burger goes down. Whip Cox as we all have planned ICE into the rucks and it starts to look thin.
My only critique. Macaffer is on the bench. Think of the points he will get vs. Christensen and the money involved and with these two players. Would Maccafer be better on the field and the extra money invested into your team for one of Ablett, Pendlebury, Franklin?
Take everyone above me' perspective on this team, and adjust according to your gut feel. It's a great looking team with nice uniques that needs a few tweaks.
9/10
Thanks mate. Regarding the uniqueness and if I had a strategy played out without having franklin and ablett. Yes I do as I believe worst comes to worst and the unique picks I have picked Ie Christensen, Atley, Moloney, Siposs fail then I could trade them earlier on after the 3rd round to rectify the problem, however if they work and Moloney ends up playing good and so on then I could tease them later on or keep them, depending on what there scores are they could be a quick cash investment to make more money or it could work. Thanks mate and look forward to playing you in the league this year.
# final update. Taken all considerations and believe I have The best start up for the season. What's everyone else's opinion. Rate or hate. Yes I've gone to Goldstein again in ruck, believe he will have breakout year and taken Siposs out for karnezis cause he played good. Also changed docherty for Armstrong and taken murphy out for swallow as I believe swallow is going to get average of 120+ this year and could mean the difference of a good score or not.

Hey buddy. I would give it a 7.5/10. A 9/10 for orignality though.
Few things I dont like:
1. No ablet/swan/franklin - big risk. I know you went Pendles, but I would rather ablett for set and forget.
2. Strong def: I think there is prob too much money in defence. Guy who won last year (powertothepeople) had an average 100,000 per player that was starting in the midfield over defence. Plus there are some good rooks in def.
3. Leuy - as you probably know I wouldnt want to start this guy. Will get managed, vested, may not start, late wdr, etc. Z. Smith could be good, downgrade to a rookie or skim some money from defence to upgrade to a premium
4. Wright at F3 is probably a bit weak IMO.
5. Lots of mid-priced players: Atley, armstrong, moloney, leuy, wright (on the fringe), de Boier, christenson, karnezis. 8 is alot.
Maybe 3 max 4 will make a lot of cash.
There are a lot of midprices in your team which is fine if thats the way you want to go, but many are likely not to make you a heap of cash. I can see you burning trades early either downgrading or upgrading your non-performing midprices. If that is your strategy its fine.
Thanks for that mate. Went no ablett and franklin option and believe this will be s strong side. No risk no reward.
Some very unique picks here, which will either make or break, but well worth the risk. Just wait for the word on Leunberger with the dodgy Achilles.
apart from that very good team.
Thanks mate. If worse comes worse for cox to swing into thy role for a while and then slide maccaffer in forward line. So should be right.
Just a couple of comments. Calculated risks taken here and you have to take risks to get the cheese.
Def: Very solid Maybe downgrade Armstrong to rookie to get some cash.
Mids: With no Ablett would prefer Swan to Pendles solely due to the fact that Swan has the ability for higher scores which may be needed to counteract those teams with Ablett, Swans highest score over the last 2 years 180 v Pendles 161. Like the choice of Swallow. Would like to see Wines as a rookie though if possible.
Rucks: May have to rethink strategy with Berger in doubt. Few options available keep and bench for a week or 2 depending on what scan reveals, bring in similar priced ruck or slightly cheaper, upgarde to ruck you can afford with cash, If benching consider bring Cox to rucks and Rowe forward - Need to ensure you have a forawrd emergency playing though.
Fwds: Think Wright is a risk at F3. I would look at seeing what prem I could getah by downgrading Christensen/ de boer to JJ Kennedy, Varcoe or Byrnes and upgrading the other to a prem Walker, Hawkins or others that you like.
Will reduce number of mid pricers you have to spread risk - Not all mid pricers will pay off.
At the moment I count only 9 what I consider prem keepers (do not consider Atley, Moloney and Wright prems at this stage). This being the case you will need at least 20 of your 30 trades for upgrade purposes to get 18 prems. Not leaving a lot for injuries etc.
By cutting down mid pricers you will reduce the need for trades, Your decision and if it is your strategy then fine but very careful trading is required to get maximum benefits.
Rate team 7.5/10 only because of risks.

Hey man, sorry i didn't comment earlier when you asked.
Backs: I think your batting a little deep here with all the quality rookie options the backline seems to be throwing up this year i think you have to jump on more than 3 of them, up to 6 look likely to be named for round 1 and this will free up a lot of cash for upgrades elsewhere in your team.
Mids: I can understand not starting GAJ although personally never will. The guys you have selected should all have good years so no problems but is maybe a tad weaker compared to other teams around.
Rucks: Solid although keep an eye on Luey, word from Voss is he will struggle to line up for round 1 and coming back from an achillies who knows how he will perform and how his comeback workload will be managed. Personally have jumped ship as i think there are better mid-price options available in other lines.
Forwards: Solid line again the only problem i have is picking all of Wright/De Boer/Chirstensen is a huge gamble. These guys are all >400K and for this money you are hoping they will break out and become keepers and im not sure any will be in the top 10 forwards come the end of the year, even if they should show some improvement. I like the gamble on one...maybe 2 max....but there are guys <300K who are options that won't score to much less than these guys but will generate far more cash.
Just some thoughts mate, your team isn't a bad one by any means i just think the lack of top tier premiums from the get go will have you sitting a bit behind the pack off the bat.

Do you have money to spare? Backs and forwards ok, though I think having Wright, DeBoer and Christensen is a bit much, I would definitely have varcoe ahead of Christensen from the cats. I had Christensen last year and I don't really see much that makes me want him back in this year. I don't see much difference in scoring potential compared to the price difference. So unless you think Christensen will be in your final team, save yourself some cash on someone who can make you more money...
Gotta be honest and say I'm not a fan of the mids or rucks. Berger looked like the deal of the century but the shimmer is starting to fade, and I genuinely think Currie could be stiff competition for Goldy in the Roo's rucks. So they're both a risk in my books, and I honestly struggle to see where the gain has been in your team given that you have pretty much the cheapest set of rucks that could be considered potential prems.
Mids, I don't rate Pendles as a standalone captain, nor do I think there is much to pick in Swallow. He'll score well but I don't think he'll be top 10 by the end of the season and I don't think he will make money.
Essentially I pick players based off either being keepers or making money to get keepers. Obviously for your money makers you don't want to pick solely rookies because their job security and scores towards league/overall wont be that great. So for all of the mid pricers you need to ask yourself if they are going to breakout and be keepers, or score enough above their breakeven to make you a bit of cash and get decent enough scores while doing so.
Thank you guys for your feedback. Well appreciated

Great team, I think the money you have spent on fwds will pay off given the lack of solid fwd rooks but i think some of the money spent in def could be better spent getting swan if not ablett.
swan is in for a big one and you need a captain, pendles and kennedy and cotchin can't be relied on for the huge scores you want regularly from your captain.
this could cost you a lot of points. armstrong to stevensen (on the field) and bring in another bench defender rook would pay for ablett or swan instead of one of the 4 elite mids you have.
again christensen may disappoint you. but then again he may not.
cox in the ruck for a few weeks burger on the bench, which is why i say good move having the mid depth, but i would take varcoe over christensen and save a lot more money while your at it...
still small points, great side should go really well.
