NoRealF'nIdea Fanplanner squad in the Super Coach competition coached by RT73. Salary cap left: $250,200. Brendon Goddard, Heath Scotland, Brett Deledio, Heath Shaw, Matthew Buntine, Brandon Ellis, Steven Morris Billie Smedts, Nathan Blee Jack Redden, Trent Cotchin, Callan Ward, Ryan Bastinac, Stephen Coniglio, Kyal Horsely Dylan Shiel, Tom Mitchell Matthew Leuenberger, Ben McEvoy Tom Derickx, Orren Stephenson Dayne Beams, Dustin Martin, Mitch Robinson, Steele Sidebottom, Allen Christensen, Gary Rohan, Adam Treloar Tommy Walsh, Dayne Zorko Going with a different gameplan this year. Rather than loading up on a heap of premiums I've decided to go the route of picking players that I think will breakout. At the same time I'm leaving a big bank to help with the upgrades. In previous years I've spent nearly all the cap to then find that I'm restricted when it comes time to cash in.

@Woodman – you’ve got Luke Brown in the backline as a MID/DEF but no one to swap with in midfield. Not sure about Priddis when you could have Swallow, Mitchell, Hodge, Selwood etc for a lower price. Don’t know if Prids will replicate last season’s effort.

Do with that what you will!

Alan Didak has torn an adductor muscle & will miss the entire NAB cup. The adductor is around the inner thigh region & could really inhibit him once he comes back – it’ll take a while to get back 100% even when he’s back playing I think. Could limit his ability to push off (accelerate) and turn quickly, as well as losing him the extra fitness from this pre-season chunk he will miss.

Not good for the Daks – I don’t think you can start him in your dreamteam this year now.

Also, today’s article will be delayed… I spent all last night working on a technical issue on the site, meaning I only got 50% of the article done. Will hopefully be up within 24hrs!

Where abouts is Viv Michie? How is his preseason going? I remember I had an eye on him last year before injury.

@ Gghippo.

I’ll be there on Saturday, too. Ever since my 3 y.o. started daycare at the centre in the Kennel compound he’s been brain-washed by Bulldogs propoganda.

Worst of all, he wasn’t afraid to bawl out the club song at the top of his lungs as I carried him on my shoulders to Southern Cross station after the Doggies beat my Blueboys last year at the dome :-(

Nice one, Clarkey.

Any word on Stven Morris from the Tigers? I remember reading that he had been on a modified program at some stage in the pre-season. If he’s not then he’ll be close to shoring up one of my DEF rookie positions.

Will there be Footy Tragic DT/SC leagues this year which we can all join?
