What I do find as a good way (for me) to manage my team(and my mind) over the pre season, is to actually make 500 moves if that is what it takes to get it right.. I ranked 298 last year, so it seemed to work... My theory is just the fact that, while a player is fresh in the mind, go ahead and make the change, it is not like your trades are limited now... It is just that I hate it when you see something in a player that you lie, you dont put him in, you forget about him, he FLIES during the season, and you are stuck saying "I was thinking of him in the pre season"... But you are very rright in what this is all about, DO NOT REACT, on NAB form, but dont be scarred of your instincts either, they can be the ones that win you this comp as well.... Yer awesome read…

Scores mean very little at this time of year. I know that when I'm watching pre-season games I'm looking for changes of role, or how certain players will fit into a sides structure. It can take a bit of guess work with so many teams holding back a few guns at this time of year. For example, Brisbane without Black and Power, can I see room for Rockliff when they're back? This is why I love checking out as many NAB Challenge games as possible. The only real exposure they get is through stats, which doesn't always tell the full story. Good points.
