Now that I've gotten all the positions I wanted to fill I can discuss strategy. This gives a slight advantage to Mulvy because he hasn't picked one of the positions I'm about to but I'm comfortable it won't make a difference
Centre is an absolute waste land, with the exception this week being Peachey. Plan was to either target him early, or take centre in rounds 12 and 13
Second row is by far the deepest position in fantasy. Even players 13,14 and 15 are capable of some really good fantasy scores. Because of this I planned to take them in rounds 9,10,11 unless someone like Matterson or Bateman fell a long way
Top 2: Far and away the best 2 players this week are McInnes and Cleary. High floor, high ceiling and both are capable of getting a banner. Thanks again for 3rd pick B/L
From there the plan became position scarcity. There is a top tier of hookers (McInnes, Smith, Cook, Hunt, Grant) and halves (Cleary, DCE, Moses, SJ, Hunt, Munster*) that I wanted to make sure I filled these slots with players from this tier. I wanted to avoid Munster and Grant coming back from injury but then all the hookers disappeared in front of me.
Next priority was front row. There are a group of 8 similar guys that average 50+. I wanted to make sure to get 2 of these guys which I'm pretty confident I did (AFB and McGuire). Note if Haas was playing he would have been my number 1 pick
After Ponga went off the board I had to grab Teddy and then expected the WFB run to come a whole lot quicker. I wanted to make sure I had 3 reliable guys in this space, with a noticeable gap between Teddy/Ponga and the rest. There are a few reliable options left but it starts getting dicey in after WFB8. With only 6/15 picked so far it becomes a real gamble
