1
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: Hello everyone, and welcome to a huge episode of Breaking

2
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 1: Even with Al Payton, the new show on the Supercoach

3
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 1: AFL podcast feed. This would have been huge anyway, eight

4
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 1: days from the first game of the official Supercoach season

5
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: for twenty twenty five, but now the AFL has thrown

6
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 1: everything into chaos. By well, I wasn't really the AFL

7
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: with cyclone, Alfred. We should place the blame appropriately. We

8
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 1: now have two games postponed that we're going to be

9
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: played this weekend but now won't be. So we'll jump

10
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: into what all that means for our Super Coach teams

11
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: with my good friend Patch and a very very special guest.

12
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:37,560
Speaker 2: But Patch, Hello, welcome aboard.

13
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 1: How are you feeling after the AFL blew everything up yesterday?

14
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,279
Speaker 3: Look, I've turned into old man chats a cloud and

15
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 3: one specific, very large cloud off the coast of southeast

16
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,319
Speaker 3: Queensland because it's just kind of it's thrown everything into

17
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 3: a ray. But in some aspects it could be a

18
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 3: gift for us, so I'm very keen to unpack it.

19
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 3: But otherwise I'm all right. How are you?

20
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm good, Patch, thank you, thank you for asking.

21
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: But yeah, we've got the right man here to discuss

22
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: all this with Joven Made, the official reigning Super Coach Champion,

23
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: won the Grand Prize last year, ranked number one out

24
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: of nearly two hundred thousand coaches. So Jovin, great to

25
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: have you back for to check in as the season

26
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: gets closer. And we did line this up before all

27
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: this news broke yesterday, but we'll.

28
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 2: Get into all the details in a minute. But how

29
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 2: are you feeling?

30
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, super excited first of all to be on

31
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,199
Speaker 4: but also like this is probably the most exciting part

32
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 4: of the fantasy and Super Coach seasons where you know,

33
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 4: there hasn't been a single failed pick yet, everyone's looking

34
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 4: a million dollars, your team's changing every five minutes. There's

35
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 4: good options everywhere. So yeah, excited to chat with you

36
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 4: boys about how we're lining up for the season. But

37
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 4: it's an exciting time in the super Coach world for sure.

38
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, we might even have some more great picks to

39
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: choose from now after this news yesterday, but yeah, we'll

40
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: get into all that. Remind us to everybody to obviously

44
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: shows this year, including the Phantom's Lair where I think

45
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: there was some kind of unmasking going on in the

46
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: lair yesterday, so don't miss that. And a reminder as well,

47

00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: hell these ownership numbers are changing at the last second.

51
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: Optimized button is going to be there for us to

52
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: use as well, so recommend everybody give that a trial.

53
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: But we do need to talk about the breaking news,

54
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: which is that two games that we're going to be

55
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: played on opening round are now not going to be played.

56
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: The Brisbane versus Geelong game was supposed to kick the

57
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: season off on Thursday night, and then we had Gold

58
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: Coast versus Esthenon which was originally scheduled for Saturday. They've

59
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: both been postponed due to the cyclinge. So I think

60
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: first of all, we should say that is the most

61
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 1: important thing, is keeping people safe up there, and I

62
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: think the AFL has made the right call, but it

63
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: does create some interesting ramifications in fantasy and Super Coach.

64
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 3: Shout out anyone listening from the defect areas to hope

65
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 3: you're okay. I hope you're ankering down, and I don't

66
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: know why you're listening to us while this is happening,

67
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 3: but yeah, stay safe.

68
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: Well, Patch, mean, what were your immediate thoughts you know

69
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,639
Speaker 1: from apart from that obviously, but when it comes to

70
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: Super Coach with those games not being played this weekend,

71
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: and I guess we should say off the top that

72
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: we don't know at this time of recording when they

73
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: are going to be played.

74
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 4: They will be.

75
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 2: Rescheduled at some point during the season.

76
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: The expectation, I guess is that Brisbane Geelong will be

77
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: played in Round three when both those teams were originally

78
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: down to have a buy. So that would seem to

79
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: make sense and sort of be relatively seamless from the

80
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: fixture point of view and for Supercoach, But we're not

81
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: sure about that for certain. Hasn't been confirmed at this stage,

82
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: and we don't know what is going to happen with

83
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: the Essen in Gold Coast game, which is a bit

84
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: more complicated in terms of their boys.

85
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, just a little bit, so that they know Essen

86
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 3: and Gold Coast don't share the same early season bias.

87
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 3: You can't just slott it in round four or round

88
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 3: two because then you know it doesn't work for the

89
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 3: other club as you've got another game lined up. B

90
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 3: AFL hasn't indicated when that'll be, but I suspect it'll

91
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 3: be either them shuffling mid season buys or it'll be

92
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 3: later on in the season with some suggestions that you

93
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 3: know they might play it. I don't have to suggestion

94
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 3: as serious or if they've come from the AFL, but

95
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 3: if it's played in the pre finals by on like

96
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 3: that Friday night, which could be the deadest rubber in

97
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 3: the history of dead rubbers. But yeah, there's very much

98
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 3: a wait and see on them. But yeah, for those

99
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 3: joining us quickly super coaches starting in round one, so

100
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 3: there are no scores counting this week, so it doesn't matter.

101
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 3: You know that we're losing those two games for this week,

102
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 3: there are no scores, nothing goes live this week, so

103
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,119
Speaker 3: but yeah, it puts a lot of Brucebane and Gelong

104
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 3: players back on the cards. Drove And what was the

105
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 3: first thing you did when you opened your team up

106
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 3: after the news.

107
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 4: Well, first of all, I was actually pretty devastated because

108
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 4: I was supposed to be going up to the games

109
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 4: because I'm a Gelong sport and my dad's an Essence supporter,

110
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 4: so we're going to do the double head on the

111
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 4: double Headursday and the Saturday. So yeah, that was first

112
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 4: of all disappointing that there's no footy, but completely obviously

113
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 4: understand the decision. It would have been. They would have

114
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 4: been terrible games, and yeah, we've got to look after

115
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 4: the safety of all the players. But yeah, in terms

116
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 4: of my team, well, to be honest, it makes me

117
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 4: want to just I've never really been one to do this,

118
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 4: but you know, sort of wipe my team and start afresh,

119
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 4: because you know, we've been planning the whole preseason that

120
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 4: these guys are going to have early buyers, and the

121
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 4: Geelong and Brisbane guys that they were extremely hard to start.

122
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 4: I thought a lot of those players because they were

123
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 4: on the buy with you know, two other teams, so

124
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 4: it was going to be hard to manage that a bit.

125
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 4: But now it opens up I think, yeah, more opportunities

126
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 4: to pick not only Gelong and Risbone players, but also

127
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 4: Collingwood and Sydney players because they've got two less teams

128
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 4: on that buy you're not going to have as many trouble,

129
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 4: you know, covering for those guys. If you've only got

130
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 4: you know, two or three players on those buyers, you know,

131
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 4: maybe bring in another one or two. So yeah, probably

132
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 4: I haven't really done too much with my team just yet.

133
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 4: I might wait till after round zero and then sort

134
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 4: of wipe my team clear and then you know, have

135
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 4: a bit of a look. But yeah, certainly a lot

136
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 4: to consider.

137
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 2: We should say that.

138
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: The super coach will announce the changes once the AFL

139
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: has locked in exactly what they're doing. And you know,

140
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: we don't know for certain that those Geelong Brisbon game

141
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 1: will be in round three, but I think we can.

142
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: We're sort of going to discuss it, you know, thinking

143
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 1: that probably is what is going to happen, and that

144
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 1: definitely is what Jovin was getting out there that yeah,

145
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: you'll then it will still be a best aid in

146
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: buy around because we'll have Collingwood and Sydney on the

147
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: buy but with only two teams there instead of the four,

148
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: probably that opens it up for picking maybe a couple

149
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: of those guys that we weren't considering in. Obviously, Geelong

150
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: and Brisbane come right back into the frame. So I

151
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: mean a couple of other ramifications. I guess that I

152
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: thought of was that some of these essen and rookies

153
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,280
Speaker 1: that we're looking at picking and there's probably four or

154
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: five of them potentially might be in our teams would

155
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 1: have gotten earlier, their prices would have started moving early

156
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 1: than everybody else if they played in opening round.

157
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 2: But now they won't, so that's something to consider.

158
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: But even though they do still have that early boy,

159
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: so you know, an Isaac CaCO type might not make

160
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: as much catch early as we thought he was going to.

161
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 2: But that's just something maybe to keep in the back

162
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 2: of our mind.

163
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: And we also don't get a free look at any

164
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: of these guys, and they were sort of the bonus

165
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: of playing in round zero, I guess. So, you know,

166
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: Elijah statists, what will is center bounce time look like

167
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: when the season starts. We won't know until round one

168
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: and super Coach is happening for real, so we have

169
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: to play it a little bit more on faith and

170
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: maybe some of those the cats that might have been

171
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: more relevant to with a Bailey Smith or a Mitch

172
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: Nevitt or you know what Sam de Coenen going to do.

173
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: So I guess this is what we do with all

174
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 1: teams usually in Supercoach. But that was a little free

175
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: hit that we can get in opening round that we

176
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: now won't with those two teams.

177
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 2: So does that effect how you think about any of

178
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 2: those guys?

179
00:07:54,400 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 4: Jovin, Yeah, I think it's probably it's different for what

180
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 4: sort of player. You know, what sort of price range

181
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 4: you're looking at. So I think for the rookies and

182
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 4: the mid prices, because you're looking to make a bit

183
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 4: of money out of those guys having that extra look

184
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 4: and being assured of their role and you know, you

185
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 4: actually get a glimpse into what their cash generation is

186
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 4: going to be like. So you know, if someone like

187
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 4: a cack On, I was probably not that keen on

188
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 4: starting him, but if he had have come out and scored,

189
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 4: you know, a ninety five in round one, it's pretty

190
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 4: hard to ignore that built in cash rise that he's

191
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 4: going to get. So yeah, I think for rookies and

192
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,719
Speaker 4: mid prices who are a bit more speculative, even a

193
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 4: Sam de Conning, you know, someone like that, that would

194
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 4: have been really good to get a look at and

195
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 4: you know, have a look at how he's scoring is

196
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 4: going to trend early on in the season, it probably

197
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 4: makes me less likely to pick those guys now, But

198
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 4: then for the premiums, I think it makes me more

199
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 4: likely to pick them, especially if that Geelong and Brisbane

200
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 4: game does get rescheduled to round three, Like they're not

201
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 4: missing out on the points to another premium at a

202
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 4: similar price that they would have lost, you know, when

203
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 4: you had to cover them on their buy. So you know,

204
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 4: it opens up a lot of avenues for homes or

205
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 4: a Zorka. I know people are keen on the two

206
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 4: midfield guys Dunkley and Neil, and then even an Ashcroft

207
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 4: who's you know, it's sort of not really a mid

208
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 4: price a bit, you know, picking him to be an

209
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,239
Speaker 4: underpriced premium So I thinking definitely, yeah for the premiums,

210
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 4: and you know, high priced guys makes me more likely

211
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 4: to pick them. And then the cheaper guys that you're

212
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 4: looking to make money out of, Yeah, it's a big

213
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 4: bonus getting that free look at how their cash gen

214
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 4: is going to go. So yeah, maybe just reconsider some

215
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 4: of those guys that you had the security blanket of

216
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,559
Speaker 4: having an extra look, who do you.

217
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 2: Like Patchet of?

218
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: Especially talking about those premiums, Tim Mitchell's done an article

219
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: which is online now across Code Sports and all the

220
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 1: platforms on He's nominated I think eight players that have

221
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: suddenly jumped into his calculations or probably into his team

222
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,479
Speaker 1: the way Tim's team changes by the minute.

223
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 3: But went out and out and all over the shop.

224
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyone that you're really thinking of putting in who

225
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 1: maybe hadn't thought about up until now.

226
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 3: So Locky Neil came in, but he's someone I'd toyed with,

227
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 3: and you know, the phantom has been really caned on

228
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 3: him all preseason. But one guy that did come in,

229
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 3: who you know, just kind of playing around, who did

230
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 3: slide his way in. I'd had Max Holmes for parts

231
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 3: of the preseason. Didn't love what I saw in the

232
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 3: preseason game against Essendon, and Tom Stewart somehow found his

233
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 3: way in just as a you know, like playing kind

234
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 3: of unaccountably, you know, switching through the midfield if need be.

235
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 3: I don't know, just someone I hadn't considered it all

236
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 3: due to that buy And you know, I need to

237
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 3: do some more some more looking and a bit more

238
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 3: scratching around because my team's all over the shop, not

239
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 3: only with the buy news, but also I had, you know,

240
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 3: some of the guys that have been injured. I had

241
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 3: Bonton Butters, who will talk about in a bit locked

242
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 3: in all they hadn't moved all preseasons, So just the

243
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 3: whole team's just getting really shaken up. And you know,

244
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 3: it's as haven't said that clear team button is has

245
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 3: been hit a few times already and it's still not

246
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 3: solving the issue at all.

247
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on Tom Stewart driven as a

248
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: Cats fan, so he's a little bit underpriced and sort

249
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: of been off the radar really this preseason after he

250
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 1: had a pretty disappointing probably first half of last year,

251
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 1: and then he actually finished pretty strong. To expect him

252
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: to get back to sort of the old Tom Stewart

253
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: that we.

254
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 4: Know, Yeah, well I think he should have, you know,

255
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 4: sort of the prime Tom Stewart role where he is

256
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 4: roaming around in the back line. They've sort of identified,

257
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 4: they've got some midfielders, they got bas Lenker in and

258
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 4: even like a Mitch Nevertt is sort of going to

259
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 4: spend a bit more time in there. So I think

260
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 4: maybe a few less cbas to what he had when

261
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 4: he was flying home at the end of last year,

262
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 4: so I think his role should be good. I don't know.

263
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 4: I think one of the biggest watches for Tom Stewart

264
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 4: is do they go back to that tag like he

265
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 4: was getting tagged in defense and that's what sort of

266
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 4: you know, the Geelong coaches moved him to the field

267
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 4: to you know, sort of free him up because it's

268
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 4: hard for a guy to I don't really know why

269
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,839
Speaker 4: this was, but teams then opted not to tag him

270
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 4: because they would have started to Tager in the center

271
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 4: bounces and then had to follow him to half back.

272
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 4: So I guess, yeah, that's something to watch out for,

273
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,959
Speaker 4: is if he does stop copping the tag, does start

274
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 4: getting the tags again, like that could affect his scoring.

275
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 4: But I think in that role, if he's not tagged,

276
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 4: he should be right around the mark. So yeah, definitely

277
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 4: changes things with no early buyer, makes him more enticing.

278
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that D two, D three sort of

279
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 1: spot for me has been a revolving door or pre season,

280
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: it's been really hard to find someone and lock them

281
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: away there that I'm really happy with. And yeah, so

282
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: this this does throw up some other options, and you

283
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: know Stuart's one of them. You know, Home's back there

284
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: as well, and I've currently got Dane Zorco in my team.

285
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,319
Speaker 1: He actually brought him in maybe Monday, and then this

286
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 1: news came out, so it sort of helps hoping that

287
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 1: he does plane round three, but just looking at the

288
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: way he scores, I mean, it's sort of you know,

289
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: written him off a bit. I'm not considering him because

290
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: of the bye and also because you know, he's thirty six,

291
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: I think now, and you know, eventually surely he's.

292
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 2: You know, he's going to do AMI or something like that.

293
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: But I did that for the first you know, twelve

294
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 1: thirteen rounds last year until I finally came to my

295
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: senses and got him in when he was just you know,

296
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: scoring one hundred and twenty every week. And when you

297
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 1: look at Brisbane's early fixture, they played West Coast in

298
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: round two and then well probably it seems like Geelong

299
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,559
Speaker 1: and round three, but then Richmond in round four, and

300
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: I just shutted to think what him and you know,

301
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: Locky Neill probably throw him in the same boat. What

302
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 1: what they could do against the Eagles and then especially

303
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: the Tigers. Yeah, I think, you know, and there's no

304
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: Kiddy Coleman, certainly for the first part of the season,

305
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 1: so I think Zorko could put out some absolutely massive

306
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: scores in that time. And so yeah, that's that's sort

307
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: of the answer to my my D two puzzle at

308
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: the moment.

309
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 3: But yeah, seagulls at the MCG won't know what when

310
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,959
Speaker 3: starts seagulling it up in round four.

311
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: I suppose the only way he is that how often

312
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: will the ball actually get into the Brisban back line

313
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 1: in the game. So but yeah, I know you mentioned

314
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: Neil and Phantom has been hot on him for ages

315
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 1: as well, and he is in his record against Richmond's

316
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 1: phenomenal anyway, he was scoring one hundred and fifties against

317
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 1: this emen when Richmond was good. So yeah, again it

318
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: could be another one who could get absolutely massive. So yeah,

319
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: that early fixture is playing a role. But yeah, there's

320
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: only two guys. I mean, Will Ashcroft's a tricky one

321
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: because again, if someone hadn't really planned for him at all,

322
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: But now should I be planning for him? I mean,

323
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: he doesn't really fit in my team unless I really

324
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 1: do a major reshuffle. I mean, how how much would

325
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: you be prepared to, you know, just change your structure

326
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: completely droven at this stage? Not just a like for

327
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: like swap but you know, changing how many premotes you've

328
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: got in each line.

329
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, he's probably one that I wouldn't be that

330
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 4: interested in starting him as more like put him on

331
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 4: the watch list and then you can trade into him

332
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 4: before before his price rises. It's one of the I've

333
00:14:55,280 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 4: heard Selby talk about this before, like in Super Coach. Know,

334
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 4: if you're banking on a guy sort of naturally progressing,

335
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 4: which is what we're sort of thinking fash Gov, he's

336
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 4: not going to have a huge role change or anything

337
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 4: like that, Like he's probably still going to be third

338
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 4: in line at the CBA as you sort of banking

339
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 4: on him just being a gun and improving enough naturally

340
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 4: and you know, just full pre season under his belt

341
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 4: that he can push up to you know, one hundred

342
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 4: and one oh five, And because his price doesn't move

343
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 4: after the first two weeks, you get to have a

344
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 4: look at that, have a look at the midfield split,

345
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 4: have a look at you know, I know you're missing

346
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 4: out on he has got some juicy matchups early, but

347
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 4: still to get a guy that could be you know,

348
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 4: sort of a top fifteen midfielder if things go right,

349
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 4: to get him at his price. You know you don't

350
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 4: have to, you know you can wait for it, but

351
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 4: you could wait to see it before you jump on.

352
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 4: So yeah, it probably wouldn't start him, but yeah, just

353
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 4: one to watch closely. And then if you do have

354
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 4: a guy that doesn't go so well or a failed

355
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 4: mid price on another line and you can, you know,

356
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 4: switch things around and get on him in round three.

357
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 4: If that game, let's go ahead.

358
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: All right, we will jump into what will be a

359
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: regular segment on Breaking Even Show each week is an

360
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: injury report brought to you by HbF. And yeah, Patch

361
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 1: has mentioned his name already, but since I think we

362
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: last spoke last week, the news came out of Marcus

363
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: Bontonpelli injuring his calf and he's going to miss six weeks.

364
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 3: And complicated injury to his calf, which is not the

365
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 3: word you want to have describing a calf injury. No,

366
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 3: that's not no, thank you.

367
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: I think we may have known about Butters, but maybe

368
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: not the severity of it that six to eight weeks

369
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: for him.

370
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 2: ERL. Gordon got injured on the weekend, as.

371
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: Well, did you have I mean, I think I was

372
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: in exactly the same boat as Patch that I had

373
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: Butters and Bonds just locked into those NY and M

374
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: two slots for most of the preseason. So it does

375
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: necessitate a pretty big structural change taking out the two

376
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: most expensive midfielders. But is that where you were at

377
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: Jovian or did you? I know, you go for a

378
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: bit more value, So with these guys in your team

379
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: when that news came.

380
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:04,919
Speaker 4: Out, I'd had one of them at times in my teams,

381
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 4: not throughout the whole pre season, but I never had

382
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 4: both of them, I think when the news came out

383
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 4: about but as he was at M one for me,

384
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 4: just because of that early run, I was liking the

385
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,640
Speaker 4: look of and then took him out and then so yeah,

386
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 4: it hasn't changed a whole lot for me. And it

387
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 4: was probably you know, a bit of a blessing in

388
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 4: disguise for me, because you know, I was going to

389
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 4: antipod those guys and then you know, if they do

390
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 4: come out and go on a tear and people are

391
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 4: captaining them, it can hurt you. So yeah, you never

392
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 4: want to see players get injured, but it should make

393
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 4: teams a bit more interesting in the midfield, like you know,

394
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 4: forces people to try and hunt value a bit more so,

395
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 4: it's definitely interesting for super coach.

396
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 2: Did you bring in to replace them pets? A straight swap?

397
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 3: It solidified Nick Dakoss in my team. He'd been I'd

398
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 3: been trying to find ways to fit him in after

399
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 3: he tore Richmond at from about six minutes on the

400
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 3: ground and scored a hundred and sixties. So he slid

401
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,640
Speaker 3: in and then kind of kneel had been in and out,

402
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 3: and I then started looking for value. But I want

403
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 3: I want to hear about like yet drove inside and

404
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 3: how what what structure and value you're looking at. I

405
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 3: assume kind of Rosie has come into the frame for

406
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 3: a lot of people, and he's been flirting with with

407
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 3: coming into my team as well. What are some of

408
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 3: the value picks you're looking at in the midfield that

409
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:23,160
Speaker 3: he just mentioned.

410
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I've had Connor Rosie for I don't think

411
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,360
Speaker 4: he's left my side pretty much at all throughout the present.

412
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 4: So I was actually a bit disappointed. I was sort

413
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 4: of saying, you know, slow down, Connor, like you know,

414
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 4: might might have gotten a few too many people to

415
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 4: jump on. But yeah, he's one I think obviously Clayton Oliver,

416
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 4: he picks himself and he's looked awesome, so that's good

417
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 4: to see. I like, I've liked Andy Brayshaw for a

418
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 4: lot of the preseason. He's currently he's actually my M

419
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 4: one at the moment, so he's my highest priced midfield.

420
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 4: I just think he can push up to you know,

421
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 4: sort of that one ten, one fifteen, and he's sort

422
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 4: of I liked his second in line for the tag

423
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 4: behind Sorong and then another guy that hadn't really considered

424
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 4: a lot. I considered him early and then he got

425
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 4: injured in the preseason and then looked amazing on the

426
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:20,239
Speaker 4: weekend as Christian Petrarca, and so I've actually brought him

427
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 4: into my team. At the moment, he's my M two

428
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 4: behind Brayshaw. So that's sort of a bit of a

429
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 4: preseason hyph pick. And as I said, like take my

430
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 4: team with a grain of salt at the moment, because

431
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 4: it's going to change after Round zero for sure. And

432
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 4: then yeah, once teams release on Round one night, you

433
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 4: know always end up making a few changes. You know,

434
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 4: selection never goes the way you think it will, so yeah,

435
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 4: just keep that in mind. But Petraca, I do like

436
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 4: the look of him is a bit of value in

437
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 4: the midfield.

438
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 3: Does that mean you've got then four rookies on field

439
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 3: in the midfield.

440
00:19:56,040 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 4: I've got three and I've got one mid pricer that is,

441
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 4: it's Petely at the moment, but I like Ollie Hollins

442
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 4: as well in that spot. It's more of a structural

443
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 4: rather than you know, based on the play. It's so

444
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 4: just you know, that's like the structure that I would

445
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 4: like to go with three midfield rookies. I think I'm

446
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 4: pretty comfortable fielding and then yeah, one mid price of it.

447
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 4: You know, Petelin could go up or down depending on

448
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 4: what other players I like. Yeah, he's not set in stone.

449
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 2: What did you think of his role on the on

450
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 2: the weekend?

451
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: Just it didn't seem to maybe get as much midfield

452
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: time as we might have hoped, but I mean still scored.

453
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, he was a bit disappointing. I was sort

454
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 4: of expecting that Adelaide midfield to be busy, and yeah,

455
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 4: it was exactly that. I think. I still think in

456
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 4: the season he could get up to fifty percent cbas like.

457
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 4: It seems like in the second half they sort of

458
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 4: subbed on Sid Draper and then he came in and

459
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 4: got a lot of Cbas. Peteling was still he was

460
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 4: still around the ball enough for my liking, Like even

461
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 4: when he was playing or starting at half forty, he

462
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 4: would push up and you know, he only had two

463
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 4: tackles in this game. And one thing about Petling is

464
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 4: he's always going to tackle. Like so I think maybe

465
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 4: that was just preseason. You know, he wasn't wasn't maybe

466
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,199
Speaker 4: going as hard or you know, players were. It was

467
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 4: just a more outside game. I still, yeah, I think

468
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 4: his role is not ideal. Like if he was going

469
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 4: sixty five seventy CNBAS, I could easily see him going

470
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 4: you know, ninety five, no stress. But if he's only

471
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 4: getting you know, forty to you know, up to fifty

472
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 4: percent Cbas, maybe it is you know, he sort of

473
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 4: falls somewhere in the eighties. But I mean he's still

474
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 4: value even if he goes in the eighties. So I

475
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 4: think one to just yeah, I don't know he's in

476
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 4: my team at the moment, but I won't have any

477
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 4: problems culling him if if I find better options and

478
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,679
Speaker 4: a better structure, and of.

479
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 1: Those, you've got three rookies on field there in the midfield.

480
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: I think I put a tweet at a couple of

481
00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: days ago, and it's something that I'm still wrestling with.

482
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 1: There's four or five of those sort of higher priced

483
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,880
Speaker 1: midfield rookies at all are great? Is it a matter

484
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: of picking the three or four that you really love?

485
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 4: Well?

486
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 2: Can you have a couple on the bench. How are

487
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 2: you approaching those guys?

488
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 4: Yeah? So at the moment on field, I've got Sardis,

489
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 4: and then I've got Sheldrick. He's been in my team

490
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,439
Speaker 4: for a while. And then I think a bit of

491
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 4: added job security with Golden going down and Mills obviously

492
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 4: missing the first bit of the season, I think you

493
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 4: should be there. And then I've got Nevert and I

494
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 4: think I think you can sort of like the midfield

495
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 4: is the place where you can play a lot of

496
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 4: rookies this year. Like I've only got one in defense

497
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 4: and then none in the forward line. So the majority

498
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 4: of my midfield, my majority of my rookies are in

499
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 4: the midfield. So yeah, that's where I think, you know,

500
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 4: even an Ashcroff that's on my bench, and I've got you.

501
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,640
Speaker 4: I've had Odris skill in and out of my team

502
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 4: as well. I think, you know, if I shuffle things around,

503
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 4: i'd like to find a way to fit him in.

504
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 4: He looked, he looked pretty good after court a time.

505
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 4: But yeah, the rookies in the midfield. We were sort

506
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 4: of looking at it all pre season thinking that the

507
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 4: rookies were going to be good in the midfield. And

508
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,199
Speaker 4: even though we've had a couple of guys sort of

509
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 4: you know, you know, Jagger obviously got injured unfortunately, and

510
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,199
Speaker 4: then Harvey Langford didn't look as good on the weekend.

511
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 4: But I still think we've got a lot of good

512
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 4: options to go through there.

513
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 1: You don't mind spending a bit more on the on

514
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: the bench if they're the best options.

515
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 4: Yeah. I like paying up for good job security rookies. Obviously.

516
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 4: Ideally you get a guy that has good job security

517
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 4: and good scoring potential and it's cheaper and you just

518
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 4: go down to him. But I don't think there's a

519
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 4: heap of those guys this year. I think, yeah, most

520
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 4: of the options are a bit higher priced, and so

521
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 4: I think you just let that dictate your structure. You

522
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 4: do have to pay up for those guys, and it's

523
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 4: no good having a guy that you know maybe plays

524
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 4: one or two games and then it's just a red

525
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 4: dot for you. I'd rather have someone that has a

526
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 4: bit more of an extended run in the in their team,

527
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 4: and then you make a bit more cash out of them,

528
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:08,640
Speaker 4: even if they're a slow burn.

529
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 1: So Pet your eyebrows raised significantly, a millhouse style.

530
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 5: When Jovin mentioned the forward line there no rookies at all,

531
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 5: I think he said none at all. It sounded like

532
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 5: it's a talk us through the forward line then, because

533
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 5: there are a few rookies down there that look like good.

534
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:31,919
Speaker 5: Sam Davidson popped off in the Dog's practice match and

535
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,439
Speaker 5: you know they've got a lot of injury, so it

536
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,879
Speaker 5: looks like he'll play a bunch of game time. Is

537
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 5: it a lack of confidence in the rookies down there

538
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 5: in terms of not having them on field, or are

539
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 5: you just really enamored with the mid prices we've got

540
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 5: down there. What's the thought behind that forward line set up?

541
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's probably less to do with well, I don't

542
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 4: think there's a heap of rookie options in the forward line.

543
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 4: First of all, like I really like Davidson, he's on

544
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 4: my bench, and then other than that, I don't have

545
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 4: a whole here be confidence in the rest of the guys,

546
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 4: like you know Hewitt, you know, he sort of looked

547
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 4: like he was going to be fieldable at one stage,

548
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 4: and then he's been managed a bit and in the

549
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 4: B team matched him and whatnot. And then you know,

550
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 4: Connor Stone maybe, but I don't know if his scoring

551
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 4: is going to be that great. So yeah, I've got

552
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 4: lots of value guys. That's probably the main thing for men.

553
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 4: I remember a few years ago there was there was

554
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:30,479
Speaker 4: a year where it was like Rosie Canelio Dunkley, like

555
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 4: all these guys were available around I just ended up picking. Yeah,

556
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 4: and I think Gordon was a forward maybe even that

557
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 4: year as well or a year after. And I think

558
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 4: if these guys present themselves and their value in the

559
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 4: forward line, I'm just going to pick them. So yeah,

560
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 4: I've got heaps of these value guys. I even see,

561
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 4: you know, the top two Horn Francis and Rankin is

562
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,919
Speaker 4: a bit of value. And then you go down to McCrae, Bailey,

563
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 4: Smith Sanders, Caleb Daniel and even a Garcia at a

564
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 4: bit of an inflated rookie price, I see him as

565
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 4: a good option as well. So yeah, less to do

566
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 4: with the rookies and more to do with just wanting

567
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 4: to get those good value guys who are are going

568
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 4: to score a lot better than a rookie and make

569
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,360
Speaker 4: a lot of cash, so I'd just rather have them.

570
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,120
Speaker 2: So do we trust Bevo with the Roley Sanders.

571
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 4: Well, I wouldn't have in the past, but I sort

572
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 4: of feel like Bevo he just has to play him

573
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 4: in the midfield now with with Bond going down and

574
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 4: Trelaw out for the first little bit, there's question marks

575
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 4: over ed Richards, but I think he should be back

576
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 4: in round one. So I think there's just going to

577
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 4: be you know, we've seen it all pre season. They've

578
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 4: talked him up, he's going to be getting cbas and

579
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,719
Speaker 4: then both practice games he's had a lot of cbas.

580
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 4: He didn't it didn't look amazing and score amazing in

581
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 4: that in that second official practice match. But I'm not

582
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 4: that worried about him. He's got you know, he's got

583
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 4: the scoring pedigree. I think he will score given he's

584
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,360
Speaker 4: got you know, sort of I've got pretty good confidence

585
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 4: in him having a good role in that forward line now.

586
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 4: So yeah, less scared of Bevo with I think he's

587
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 4: just going to be forced into playing Sanders in the midfield.

588
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 4: So yeah, I feel comfortable in locking him in at

589
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 4: this stage.

590
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 2: And that leaves the ruck what are your moves there?

591
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: Another injury that I think we talked about last week,

592
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: Mark Pidna going down has made Tom Decony a much

593
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 1: more popular selection.

594
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 2: Carlton.

595
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: Obviously, you've got Cherry and Gorn very expensive, and then

596
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 1: the other one who I'd sort of written off a bit,

597
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: thinking I just don't want to. I don't want to,

598
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 1: don't want the headache of wondering what West Coast he's

599
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:35,880
Speaker 1: doing with their rucks.

600
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 2: I'm happy to pass on Matt Flynn.

601
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: Then he goes out and scores ninety eight against Cherry,

602
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, man, I do have to find a way

603
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: to get him in. So have you got Flynn and

604
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,359
Speaker 1: what's your rack line looking like at this stage?

605
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm t DK and Flynn at the moment. So

606
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,560
Speaker 4: I haven't had the start of the preseason. Yeah, Flynn,

607
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 4: I too. I had Flint at the start of the

608
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 4: pre season, and it was more just yeah, what I

609
00:27:58,119 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 4: was mostly looking out for is is he going to

610
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,880
Speaker 4: be the first rock choice and get you know, sort

611
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 4: of a seventy percent rock split chair for West Coast.

612
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 4: That's that's all I think he really needs. Even when

613
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 4: he was at Giants, he was never doing massive CBA

614
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 4: and rock contest percentage numbers. So I think you where

615
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 4: his price start and if his body can I mean,

616
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,159
Speaker 4: his body is the major issue. He's never really played

617
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 4: more than like fifteen games in a season. But you know,

618
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 4: I don't need him to play the whole season. He's

619
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 4: a stepping stone. And you know, if I do see

620
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 4: you know, sort of a Sherry maybe not holding his

621
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 4: value for the earliest part of the season, and then

622
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 4: if if Flynn can make me enough money and then

623
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 4: you know, I sort of boost up to Sherry and

624
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 4: you know, in upgrade season in round seven or something,

625
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 4: that would be the ideal outcome for Flynn. So yeah,

626
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 4: he's in there at the moment.

627
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 3: Do you have a contingency plan if he goes down

628
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 3: and say round three he goes down with a back

629
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 3: injury or whatever it is, or is that not something

630
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 3: you just burn that bridge when he gets to it.

631
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I'll I'll just deal with that if

632
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 4: it arises. I don't like to usually plan too far

633
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 4: and ahead, so yeah, if that happens, it will be unfortunate,

634
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 4: but yeah, I'll sort that out when it happens.

635
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: And what about the flex position brand new this year

636
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: obviously for super Coach. I think Flynn is sitting there

637
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 1: for me at the moment. But you a lot of

638
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: people like the idea of maybe being able to pick

639
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 1: an extra rucmmen, But I'm not sure if you found

640
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 1: another one or what's your strategy down there at this stage.

641
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, when I first brought Flynn in after his good performance,

642
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 4: I did bring him into Flex, But then I've shuffled

643
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 4: things around. I've actually got an extra forward in the

644
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 4: flex at the moment. It's Garsa sitting in Flex for

645
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 4: me at the moment. I like having a bit of

646
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 4: midfield forward like flexibility through the flex like that. I

647
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 4: think that is optimizing it to you know, it allows

648
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 4: you to shuffle things around, especially in the buyers where

649
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 4: you've got players missing and you can get your best

650
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 4: eighteen players on field. So I think that's what you know.

651
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 4: I like about having the flex there as a mid

652
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 4: ford and yeah, Garsie, I like him as an option,

653
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 4: so he's sitting there at the moment.

654
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with that take on the flex. I've

655
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 3: currently got Flynn there and I'm not enjoying the lack

656
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 3: of flexibility that comes with that, and the flex and

657
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 3: that you know you're not only you know, have him

658
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 3: locked in, but also it means you then need to

659
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 3: pick like an archer read at R three, which you know,

660
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 3: if he doesn't play it, just you know you've got

661
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 3: one less play generating cash, which I don't love at all,

662
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 3: and he can't play Flynn on the bench, so it's

663
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 3: just kind of a bit of a pickle. Yeah, I

664
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 3: agree with you. I reckon it needs to be either

665
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 3: a rookie or you know, that sort of mid price

666
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 3: cash generator. Yeah, mid forward kind of swing is ideal.

667
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 1: I think. Yeah, Garsia really fits the build, hasn't. He

668
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 1: had him there for a while, but then I sort

669
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: of had to find a way to get Flynn in,

670
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: and I did toy with leaving Cherry out, and then

671
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: when you have fourteen tackles or something on the weekend,

672
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he's not going to do that every week, surely,

673
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, his early fixtures looks like it might be

674
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 1: a bit tricky, so maybe there's a way there that

675
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 1: he does lose a little bit of value. But yeah,

676
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 1: he's going to be a scary watch, not having him imagine.

677
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, especially when he eats him English alive in round,

678
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 4: pretty annoying to come up against. But yeah, I think

679
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 4: it's just, you know, he does have that hard run,

680
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 4: and maybe Sherry is match up proof, Like you know,

681
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 4: if he tackles like the way he does on the weekend,

682
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 4: it probably doesn't matter who he's up against. But then again,

683
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 4: you know, I look at you know, Flynn is not

684
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 4: the toughest matchup and also you know that Eagles midfield

685
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 4: isn't exactly you know, clearing out of stoppages with any class.

686
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 4: So you know, Sherry just so of comes down and

687
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 4: just you know, wraps him up straight away. If he

688
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 4: comes up against a bit more of a slick outfit

689
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 4: in the midfield, maybe doesn't get as many tackles, And yeah,

690
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 4: I don't know exactly how to play out up, but yeah,

691
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 4: I think Sherry maybe just loses a tiny bit of

692
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 4: value at the start of the season, and it could

693
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 4: be enough that you know, I'm happy going against in

694
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 4: the start.

695
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you're hoping that Flynn scores around that.

696
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 1: You know, if he gets ninety eight every week, that'll

697
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: be amazing. But you know, ninety plus maybe you're only

698
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: losing twenty or thirty points in that spot, and you know,

699
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: by saving you know, five hundred, you know, four hundred

700
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, you can make that up somewhere else.

701
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's more about, yeah, just finding value across my

702
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 4: whole team rather than yeah, just in one spot. So

703
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 4: that's the way I view it.

704
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: Fair enough.

705
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: So the guts of this show each week will be

706
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: questions from listeners. So we've obviously has benefit of time

707
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: they're talking about the breaking news and Joven's team, but

708
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 1: we do have some questions which we can run through

709
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: to finish off the show. So more pointy on X

710
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 1: has asked Patch, maybe I'll throw this at you to

711
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: start with, which we have sort of touched on. Anyone

712
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: you're bringing in now that the Cats Lions game is delayed,

713
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 1: and also anyone from the preseason games that you know,

714
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: we've had a full round of official practice matches. Was

715
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: there anyone there, he suggested, as she's la Redekos who

716
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: put up these kind of insane numbers who have forced

717
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: their way into your squad.

718
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, as I mentioned, Tom Stewart's kind of you know,

719
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 3: flitting around at the moment I don't know if he

720
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 3: stays there. Lucky Neil was the big one that that's

721
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 3: moved in and is unlikely to move back out, So

722
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 3: he's the he's the big one, I think, And you

723
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 3: know there's there's the y augment for Zorco as well

724
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 3: as for preseason games games Finnosullivan has pushed his way

725
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 3: in now as and must have. So that's just cemented

726
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 3: the four rookies on field for me, because I don't

727
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 3: really want to drop any of those guys. I don't

728
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 3: want to compromise on that. So it's kind of the

729
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 3: rookies that have really solidified a bit from there, and

730
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 3: you know, even looking at like a James League who

731
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 3: had a big prison game in terms of center bounce attendances,

732
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 3: which shows they've got some faith at very at the

733
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 3: very least. So he's now in there for a little bit.

734
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 3: Sheldrick's come in. They're the main ones aside from Tom Deconning,

735
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 3: who's proven that he's probably even though he wasn't really

736
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 3: playing against anyone after than Locke Kief, he was the

737
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 3: one that really round home. Not so much that he'll

738
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 3: be good, I knew that, but just how painful it

739
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 3: will be to to watch him score well and not

740
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 3: be in my side.

741
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Calvin playing Richmond in round one, Yeah, especially

742
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: given the way you know, I think, you know, Nang's

743
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 1: a pretty decent ruckman, although other Rucks can score well

744
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 1: against him, but the way TDK scores around the ground

745
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 1: with his clearance kind of work, I think, yeah, that

746
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: would be pretty hard to watch if you didn't have him.

747
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 2: I mean, I agree with you on Fino Sullivan.

748
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: I brought him in as well, just it just gave

749
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:49,240
Speaker 1: me flashbacks of those other North top end draft picks,

750
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: especially Harry cheesel If you remember a couple of years ago,

751
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: we weren't going to pick well, I don't think I

752
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 1: even started Harry start him because he was supposed to

753
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 1: be a forward pocket type, and then in the first game,

754
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 1: what do you know, he lines up at half back

755
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,960
Speaker 1: and get some moving possessions and obviously went on to

756
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: be one of the best rookies of the year, probably

757
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: probably the best. And you know Sullivan just you know,

758
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: it's just Clarco. That's how he likes to play these

759
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: these first year you know, elite sort of mids, just

760
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 1: these them into things. And Sullivan's been floating around a

761
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,320
Speaker 1: wing for a lot of the preseason, but then in

762
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 1: the second half of that game he was sort of

763
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:19,800
Speaker 1: more around that half back area, taking a couple of

764
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: intercepts which were nice. So yeah, if he could be

765
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: another one in that sort of production line, I think

766
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: that's definitely something.

767
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 2: I want to be your part of.

768
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 3: So Zan durs me getting the Frankie Grimes treatment of

769
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 3: like like, oh, I've played off half back?

770
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 2: Is that you you've played off half back?

771
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:36,400
Speaker 3: Sure? Sure, who hasn't.

772
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:39,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, So he was definitely a big one for me.

773
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 1: Who else came into my team? I mean Adam Cherr

774
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: has been floating in and around the you know, he's

775
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 1: been in and out at different times. And again, you know,

776
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,799
Speaker 1: Carlin's fixture looks really nice early. So he did a

777
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 1: lot to make me think, yeah, he's going to have

778
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: a really good year, you know. Nazaia Wangan and Miller

779
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,440
Speaker 1: was an interesting one. Who he's still there and my

780
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: side I had him, I've had him for a lot

781
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 1: of the preseason. But again, yes, Deffe not real one

782
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 1: hundred percent happy with with how that back line looks.

783
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,720
Speaker 1: But then he looked really good in the first half

784
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: against Portal though it was pretty awful game simply from

785
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 1: a security point view, But then he plays the whole

786
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,399
Speaker 1: second half basically in the center bounces, So not sure

787
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: quite what ross Lane was playing out there, but hopefully

788
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:20,320
Speaker 1: just a little bit of experimentation in the preseason. But Jovin,

789
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,320
Speaker 1: was there anyone that you sort of, you know, confirmed

790
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: what you were thinking, or you know, maybe cross someone

791
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:27,960
Speaker 1: off the list based on how they went in those

792
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 1: Amy games?

793
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, well probably maybe one that I crossed off the

794
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 4: list that was in my team and I was liking

795
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 4: a lot was Trent Rivers. I thought that even with

796
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,919
Speaker 4: Petrarca and by any coming back, maybe Petrarca would spend

797
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,880
Speaker 4: a bit more time forward and Rivers could be the

798
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 4: third or fourth guy. But he dropped the end too

799
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 4: like the fifth guy, and even Ed Langdon I overtook him,

800
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 4: which I didn't really see that coming. So yeah, that

801
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 4: just having Ed Langdon in that mix, and if he

802
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 4: is only getting thirty percent time on thirty percent CBA

803
00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,919
Speaker 4: is and he has time on ground problems as well

804
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 4: sometimes Trent Rivers, so he's one that you know, I

805
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 4: was looking for value in defense, and yeah, it just

806
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 4: didn't quite show enough to definitely for me to start him.

807
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 4: You know, if something changes in that midfield, I can

808
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 4: still bring him in, But yeah, steering Cliff from starting him,

809
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 4: I think.

810
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: Another question on X Ben Morgan has asked patch thoughts

811
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 1: on forward line structure JHF. Rankin, McCrae, Daniel Smith. They

812
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: all must have and who out of that would you

813
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 1: potentially fade.

814
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 3: If I had a gun to the head and had

815
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 3: to fade one of them. Bailey Smith just feels I

816
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 3: don't have any concrete data, I don't have any anything

817
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 3: other than vibes to go off. Bally Smith feels like

818
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 3: the one who's in that weird middle ground where mccran

819
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 3: and Daniel comfortable can be keepers, and Smith might just

820
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 3: be outside that. That top ten to eight forwards. I

821
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 3: think the Horny one and Rankin of the two that

822
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 3: will be top two locked in. Whether or not you

823
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 3: can start them depends on how much you trust the

824
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 3: Ford rookies and whether or not you like droving and

825
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 3: going with the Garcia and the Sanders as well. So yeah,

826
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 3: I'm currently at the point where I've got Of those five,

827
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 3: Smith is one I don't have, but I don't love

828
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 3: not starting him, especially if he goes well everyone's got him,

829
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:26,319
Speaker 3: it then hurts a little bit. So it's tough. Have

830
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:27,799
Speaker 3: you have you got the horny one yet?

831
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 1: Al well, yes, I did leave that out when I

832
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 1: was talking about changes to my team, but I have

833
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: caved on Jason.

834
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:37,359
Speaker 3: He's finally in.

835
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 1: So I was, you know, I was just toying with

836
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:41,799
Speaker 1: the idea of what my team look like without him,

837
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 1: and you know, like, look at all this lists, can

838
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 1: you fit them all in? And he was one I

839
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: thought could maybe get him later on for you know,

840
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 1: not that much more expensive, but yeah, you could not

841
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: looking like that now. I mean I was a bit

842
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: nervous about the center bounces at portam many would he get,

843
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 1: but with Butters out now and I mean it seems like

844
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,399
Speaker 1: who's basically locked in there before that anyway, So he's

845
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 1: looking incredible. So yes, he has come into my team,

846
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 1: the one I don't have currently, which I would love

847
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 1: to find it. You know, if anyone's got an extra

848
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: few hundred grands to loan me to get Isaac Rankin

849
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: in because he looked fantastic and he was getting all

850
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,919
Speaker 1: the center bounces at Adelaid, which is what we're really

851
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 1: hoping for. Have you got Ranking at the moment, Jovin.

852
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got both. I've got Horn Francis and Rankin

853
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 4: at the moment, I think maybe the biggest thing for

854
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,359
Speaker 4: me is just yeah, I'm pretty confident that those two

855
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 4: will be top two, if not top three. You know,

856
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 4: maybe McCrae jumps up there. But they've both got awesome roles,

857
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 4: and we've seen him score well in the roles before.

858
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 4: Like Ranking, he went on an incredible stretch sort of

859
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 4: through the back half of last year. They've talked him

860
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 4: up that they want to play him in the midfield.

861
00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 4: He is great as a forward, but I think he

862
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 4: does do his best damage in the midfield. And if

863
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:56,160
Speaker 4: Adelaide are gonna you know, I think now's the time

864
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 4: that they do want to be pushing for another finals tilt.

865
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 4: So I think the best foot he will be with

866
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 4: Ranking in the midfield. And yeah, I think he can go,

867
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 4: you know, push himself up to I think his priced

868
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 4: at ninety eight, you know, go one oh five plus,

869
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 4: and I like that in the forward line, just getting

870
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 4: a you know, if he doesn't get injured, you're not

871
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 4: going to have to use a trade on him. You're

872
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 4: pretty confident that he's going to be around the mark.

873
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: Yep a couple of quick ones to finish. Steve Smith

874
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 1: is asking about the round twelve boy. I know, Joe

875
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 1: and we speak to you early in the preseason and

876
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 1: you said you don't think about that until that round ten.

877
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 1: So maybe I'll ask Patch, do you have any issues

878
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,800
Speaker 1: with you know, especially in the rock You've got Cherry

879
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: and TDK both have the boy that round, and then

880
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 1: there's a bunch of other players like a you know

881
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 1: from the Bulldogs.

882
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 2: I think I'll have the boy that week.

883
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 1: So he's asking maybe a name could be a sort

884
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 1: of a pot option in the ruck instead, But is

885
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,480
Speaker 1: that something you'd be worrying about at this stage.

886
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 3: Now, especially not with the possibility of the AFL might

887
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,319
Speaker 3: be shuffling the buyers anyway with this Gold Coast lets

888
00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 3: in the game obviously not confirmed, but it's just kind

889
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 3: of you know, confirmation bias for me of just like,

890
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:05,839
Speaker 3: I'm not too stressed about it to start with, and

891
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 3: you know, we've got best dataing by that stage we

892
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 3: should be getting towards for premium. Not a huge concern

893
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 3: if you if you have the I've all got the

894
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:20,439
Speaker 3: Supercoach Gold trial, you know, play around with the bias

895
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 3: settings and if you see your entire team grade out

896
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,360
Speaker 3: in one round, then maybe look to change it. But otherwise,

897
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 3: don't stress half your teams rookies and mid prices at

898
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 3: this stage. You won't have by the middle of the year.

899
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 3: Don't overthink it.

900
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:34,799
Speaker 1: And we don't know what TDK is going to do

901
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 1: with once pittne ever returned, so that's a position that

902
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:42,279
Speaker 1: might change. And yeah, and anything can change with we

903
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 1: know in previous years there's plenty of injuries and everything

904
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 1: else that gets thrown at us.

905
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:48,799
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think that's a that's a fair way

906
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 2: into the future. So that's for the reader questions.

907
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: But just so we'd finish off by asking Jovian that

908
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 1: we do still have two opening round games, Sydney and

909
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: Hawthorne kicking off the season on Friday night, and we've

910
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 1: got the Giants in Collinwood. So who are you watching

911
00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,919
Speaker 1: in those matches with a view to deleting your team

912
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: and starting again after opening around before next Thursday.

913
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I think there's lots of relevant players in

914
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 4: both games for Hawthorne and Sydney game. I think down

915
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 4: back Cicily, i'd like to have a good look at him,

916
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 4: and you know, does he yet swung forward much or

917
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 4: at all? That's one thing to look out for Matt Roberts.

918
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 4: You know how much distribution is he getting off halfback

919
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 4: Sheldrick the in the midfield. Will Day as I'd like

920
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 4: to have a look at hasn't been in my side

921
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 4: for a little bit, but I'm still still pretty interested

922
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 4: in him. And then in the other game, I think

923
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 4: it's maybe a few less relevant players probably not really

924
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:48,840
Speaker 4: looking at what Daikos does, Like I think I already

925
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,399
Speaker 4: know what he's going to do. He's scoring. Round one

926
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 4: is not going to change my mind on him. I

927
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,839
Speaker 4: think maybe a Perryman down back. Not so much role.

928
00:42:57,880 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 4: I think I know what role he's going to get,

929
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,360
Speaker 4: but how to the scoring potential look in game and

930
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 4: when he's not playing against Richmond in the preseason. That's

931
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:11,239
Speaker 4: that's a big one to say, Yeah, that's those are

932
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 4: probably the main guys I think. Yeah.

933
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: I mean a chief Dakos gets Toby Bedford tag and

934
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:22,880
Speaker 1: he scores seventy Would that make you nervous about starting him?

935
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,840
Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. I think he's going to score.

936
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 3: He'll be a top five midfielder come season's end, and

937
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 3: I think at this stage, you know you've decided if

938
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:35,279
Speaker 3: you want to go with the more value picks or

939
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 3: if you want to go with the expensive guys, And

940
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 3: I don't think opening around should dictate should change that

941
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:46,880
Speaker 3: too much. You know, if Dacos pops off and scores

942
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 3: a lot of points there, they're points.

943
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:48,879
Speaker 2: We can't get.

944
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 3: You know, maybe you know you've got the consideration that

945
00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 3: his price will start dropping. But again, I know, similar

946
00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 3: approach to the preseason games, trying not to react to it.

947
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:06,360
Speaker 3: So either way, I think I'll be starting him either way,

948
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 3: and no, you know it'll be what it'll be.

949
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I liked all those players that Droven

950
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:15,880
Speaker 1: mentioned and the other one I'd just add to it

951
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 1: would probably be just those any of the rookies, and

952
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,400
Speaker 1: especially in the back line, we've got a few you

953
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:23,920
Speaker 1: mentioned Leak at gw Wes and then the Swan Skuys

954
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 1: are Ben Patten or Riley Bye. If he gets a game,

955
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 1: you know, just hoping that there's someone like last year

956
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,840
Speaker 1: Blake House. I hadn't even heard of him before opening

957
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 1: round and he came out and scored ninety something for

958
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 1: Melbourne and was an easy pick in the back line,

959
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: So someone like that would be great. We'd solve a

960
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,640
Speaker 1: few issues for us about who to pick, especially on

961
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 1: the bench in.

962
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 2: The back line.

963
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:45,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, we're watching those games closely and there will

964
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:48,400
Speaker 1: be live Super Coach points. As Patch said, these games

965
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:51,439
Speaker 1: don't count officially towards the Super Coach season, which kicks

966
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 1: off in Round one, but we will have live scores

967
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 1: on the Super Coach Chap and across the match centers,

968
00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:00,359
Speaker 1: so you can follow the scores and maybe goes out

969
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 1: of your team if you're not happy with them, or

970
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 1: make as many changes as you like up until the

971
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 1: season officially starts on at the thirteenth of March, and

972
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: there is plenty more to come before then. A bit

973
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: later today, I think I'll try and do a bit

974
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 1: of a video of what my team looks like at

975
00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:15,120
Speaker 1: the moment. We'll have the first episode of our Live

976
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:18,880
Speaker 1: Teams show tomorrow and then next week there's more breaking

977
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:21,799
Speaker 1: even with us and the Fantoms there on a Monday,

978
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: and I think the Fantom's lining up Dan Batton for

979
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: another Rookie Bible special. Heaps of content coming your way, Patch,

980
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 1: Thanks for jumping on pleasure. Thank you all and Joven.

981
00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 1: Great to talk to you again. We might have to

982
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 1: talk to you again before in a week's time, given

983
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: what you said about how many changes you're likely to make.

984
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, thanks very much for having me on now, and

985
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 4: good luck to everyone finalizing your teams over the next

986
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 4: week or so. And enjoy opening round.

987
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly as you said, the most fun part of

988
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,440
Speaker 1: the Super Coach season, so enjoy everybody

989
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 2: And we'll talk to you next week.
