    Im going to pick magner and probably Shiel even if they are not named as they're only going to be a week off anyway most likely.

    Great question Buzz. I'm sticking with Magner if he's promoted but tempted to Neale if we can get a line on his injury.

    In practice its worth banking on two trades pre R3 (or R4 if someone misses a game) to swap rookies and grab a couple that have a big two rounds and are about to increase.

    What's the latest on Neale's injury?

    Remember Hibberd from last year? Like many I got sucked in to starting thinking he'd play in the early rounds and I ended up trading him out. I'm reluctant to take that risk again.

    I had both Rockliff and jpod in all preseason a couple of years ago and took them out as they were both not named round 1, replacing one of them for Relton Roberts, I'm not going to let a similar thing happen this year

    Rockliff for Relton AA - that's the stuff Supercoach legends are made of!

    Is Stringer on anyone's mind? He apparently had a great impact when he was subbed on vs Dogs and has been impressive when playing in VFL team last year.

    Magner is a definite as we've seen what he can do.

    Shiel I'm less confident on but with the huge wraps its hard to go past if he's named.

    Yep I have Magner and will be keeping him. Having also swapped the Jpod out for Relton, I'm inclined to go with the guy whose actually shown some form.

    Cheers Moblets, that's what I thought.

    Your mob going to play any rookies this year? Dell'O seems on the outer now, and none of the others getting any gametime at all.</blockquote>

    Not round 1 mate. Dell'O will definitely get games this year so maybe a tasty downgrade option later in the year. Will probably just need a couple of injuries to get in. Expect the real improvement to come from Colyer, Melksham etc. Watson and Heppell the only ones I would consider for SC from the start.

    What do y'all think of Ledger from Saints? I'm well tempted to put him in over his nab preformance, but he did rubbish last year...

    Should be locked in. Will net you 70 odd each week IMO.

    That's a bit harsh on Ledger considering he was the starting sub in both his games last year.
    His NAB form screams out LOCK

    Agree with the 2 guys above! He has had a great NAB and should score 70-75 regularly.

    Anyone care to rank the GWS rookie defenders in terms of JS and scoring potential.

    In order, who would you go for out of Tomlinson, Mohr, Townsend, Darley & Bugg? I'll probably have at least 2 in my team.

    Started both games as sub, playing about total of half game all up. In the two games he averaged 9 disposals.... Then he got injured. Blame the coach for not giving him more gametime throughout the year, cos he bloody deserved it.
