Who and how many ??. We're all tempted with Crackwhore, Knights, Otten ect. Just wodering which of these players people are swinging towards and if so how many ?.
1 for me, but it's my own POD. BTW, Otten is actually less than 200k so doesn't strictly match with the thread title. If Otten is counted, then I have 2 of these guys.
Its a good point and definitly a risky area! Even guys a little bit more expensive like Jetta/Dangermouse/Zaharakis/Higgins/Hurley are a big risk in my opinion! I'm going with a typical GNR stratergy so I have tried to avoid all the above...But I have Krak and Otten in at this stage, I think they are too good value not to put in!

Have one. Toying with more. trying to get that optimal balance of GnR and midpricers. Yarran is tempting me. Am I being hoodwinked!?

I'm going to there practice match against Geelong tomorrow, I'll let you know how he goes.
<blockquote>Quote from Lucas on March 11, 2011, 10:16 Kraks is certainly starting to firm into my team. Unless Dick gets in there first</blockquote> The innuendo is strong in this one.

May not end up being a POD around these parts but probably will be in most of my leagues!
I've got Krak and Otten at the moment too. I'm actually considering putting Matty Jaensch (297k) in my forward line. No real reason unless you count sentiment, I used to play footy with his dad back in the day. Just hoping he plays a blinder this weekend to be able to justify it though.
For me its Fraser, kraks and knights. Risky i know with fraser and knights but if they can play 6 early games and average 80 they would have served there purpose. Playing safe in this game will not bring home the bacon.
At the moment I have only got Knights, only because he has shown he can score well in the past. But I'm going to the footy tonight and will see how Kraks goes with a few more players back in the team. So it's one or the other.

I'm also really keen to see how Varcoe/Johnson/Stokes go, see who gets most time in the middle.
I've currently got Otten and Krak. Have had Knights in earlier though. Got burnt with Hentchel a couple of years back as a returning Crow at a low price. So just thought I would go with Prestia and Krak, to reduce injury worries. Unfortunately I am having trouble spending money in my fwd line, not saving it.
krakour, otten and knights for me aswell. also bout callan ward at $274,600, but with money in the bank i might trade him
