@NWG Definitely Shaw and then probably Scotland. There's not much between all three so when in doubt I'd look at the bye situation. Newman and Scotland share a bye with Deledio and Goddard. You wouldn't want all four sharing the same bye (assuming you have one or both of Lids and BJ). So Shaw gets the nod first. As for the other two, Scotland is MPP but not Newman. If you ain't got Lids or BJ please disregard - too hard for me!!
Mids - don't like any of them, but if I had to I'd go Gibbs. Fwd - Fyfe for me. Here's a question - Volt or Brown?
Philbya - IMO you should never have a premium Forward/Mid in your midfield line. So not beams, if your want him put him in your forward line. For me Gibbs > Montagna Nick - I would pick Brown, mainly because I think there scoring range and eventual average for the year will be quite similar, however brown is a lot cheaper.
Haha...yeah safe to say Volt ahead of Brown at this stage Nick! I have previously never started with Shaw, he tends to fluctuate a lot and can be brought cheaper during the year, however this year I think I will start him, mainly on the back of his solid preseason and NAB cup to date. Deledio’s injury scare is a slight concern...but can you really afford to not have him? I don't have the balls to not pick him from the start, even though I think he will drop slightly in value early.
