    Lol, can't believe I forgot to add Swallow. :facepalm: Happy with what's suggested. Laidler can move into Langdon easy enough. Hopefully Seedsman is a while coming back. If we have to have Martin then moving Tyson into him shouldn't cost too much.

    Another idea I had was that the reigning champ picks the following years team, but sorry I've forgotten who won last year. i think it was NSD/Chasing Birdies narrowly but soemone shoud probably check last years thread if need be Chasing birdies is back! I can't remember myself if I got up or was pipped at the post! Either way, big fan of this and happy to start with whatever team you guys decide!

    How about:

    DEF: Mitchell*, Shaw, Hurn*, Guthrie*, McDonald*, Laidler*, Georgiou*
    MID: Ablett*, Rockliff*, Liberatore, Beams, Thomas*, Tyson*, Michie*, Polec*, Ellis, Dunstan*
    RUC: Lobbe*, Sandi*, Derickx*, Thurlow*
    FWD: Dangerfield*, Martin*, Dixon, Caddy*, Daniher*, JKH, Rohan*, Impey*.

    * denotes common players

    That's 24 players in common (so more than last time), I don't think it's completely perfect but it fills all the criteria.

    <ul> <li> Patton goes for JKH (he's a must and he or Rohan will score just as much as Patton)</li> <li>Johnson then moves into Shaw to get the GWS player in (risk you wouldn't take with your normal team but it's not like the ball isn't going to be down that end).</li> <li>Not sure how you can leave out Ellis either? Easily one of the top mid rookies. Him in for Crouch.</li> <li>If Swan goes into Beams, then with spare cash Macrae (too awkwardly priced imo) can go back into Libber.</li> <li>Then just upgrade Pav to Dixon (I don't really mind having Dixon if others want R/F)</li> <li>$22,000 Spare cash.</li> </ul> How about we just lock in this team. It will do :) + 1 (obviously, rookie selection dependent) I think there's enough unusual/uncommon selections (Shaw, Guthrie, Rockliff, Thomas, Dixon, Daniher) to allow room to move for those coaches with itchy trade fingers. We only have until Friday to get the team sorted, (yes, I know only Coll and Freo are actually locked in) as we need a full team to be included in a league. Then we can scramble around chasing the best, selected rookies through next week. This team looks like a lock. I think it's been agreed by all that this will do with final rookie changes this Thursday (ready for 10am Friday morning lock in). With no adelaide or geelong rooks, means that it can be reassessed on Thursday night, and ready for another Friday 10am lock next Friday. Two lock times only so there are no excuses for people not having the right start team. Done.

    am I correect that if you are keen to enter but pushed for time or finiding it diffcult to get into the site durign the day this would be the best way to enter at the last minute?? 1 - set up a team with WESTERN BULLDOGS (or another week 2 team) as autopicked players, then 2- replace your most expensive mid with BEAMS and one of your rucks with SANDY then 3 - login later (ie after tonights game starts but before the 440pm Sat game starts) when you have more time and get the rest of the team set up per the above

    No changes to the team. Everyone named except for Thurlow, but there is no real replacement for him anyway.

    Can whoever started the group kick people out? there are some in there that haven't chosen the right starting team (Crowchanps Paulj for example). Would be good if we can have that board be only Trading Game teams. Gratz to BigGuns! 13points clear from the pack!
