elevating rookies

[monopoly19]

Were Bevan and Rogers elevated b/c of the veterans rule or in place of Malceski and Sundqvist?

veterans rule. Each team is allowed 40 players (including up to two veterans/elevated rookies)

We can still elevate McGlone and Potter if we want to (which I assume is why you're asking).

Thanks, and yeah that's why I was asking.

For anyone who knows (Tina maybe), would Potter get the gig over Hunt? Is Hunt still injured? I'm assuming Scooter would be the first elevated (based on match reports, and the fact that there was thought he would be elevated at the end of last year).

Our rookie stocks would be looking a little bare... Taylor and one other

From what I have seen Potter is vastly more talented...has the build of a genuine midfielder (same size as Bevan ie 6 foot and not skinny).

Hunt is a Key Position Player, though.

From what I have seen he is a goer but has pretty much no ability to take a grab even though he presents well. Average kick.

Who knows, maybe if they put him down back he can get his fist on the ball.

Anyway, Hunt and Potter are not competing for the same position.

Yeah I just meant a position on the senior list.

I can remember seeing Hunt playing against Carlton in the Wiz Cup, and wasn't all that impressed (but I wouldn't have expected to be, considering the result). He's one up on Potter however - I can't even remember seeing him.

And I think it should be made a condition of promotion that they both dye their hair a different colour. With the Boltons, Buchanan, Powell, O'Keefe and Bevan I'm having enough trouble telling people apart...

Dunks was a below average kick, but still a super player, altho' he was pretty accurate in front of goal with his limited opportunities.

Potter hasn't really done all that much in the reserves to warrant promotion.

Give him another year.

I'm not really sure about Potter yet. But I think I'd take him over Hunt at this stage. Daniel does present well, but has often dropped the mark (Hayes did well last game I saw from this). I'm not sure about his kicking, nothing is standing out in my mind about it. I pretty much agree with what Sharp9 has said.

I'll keep an eye on Potter this weekend and also Hunt if he's playing and report back
