Bonjour 239 this is my S27 Pre-Season Rankings Enjoy! ----------------------------------------------------------------- BOTTOM 2 TEAMS ON PAPER --------------------------------------------------------- Cob13 – Stache or pass Projected lineup: Adrenaline - Ando - Cob Fungus – Legion/FirePho3nix Death2all When Legion is in the lineup I think this team is decent… but this team is going to have huge problems when he’s not in the lineup. FirePhoenix didn’t play more than two games at RD since S23 and your LD is a rookie. Fongus was pretty good in the combine but can he step up when Legion’s not playing? The forwards line is decent but I don’t see a natural goal scorer in this trio. Steal: Death2all for 2 bods Question mark: Can the forwards produce? Raterle – One trick pony Projected lineup: Sexy Rocko - YaMomsHammee - Raterle Trey – Rocky/Weazle Drug SURPRISE! Hammerman and Raterle duo reunited. They were the most productive duo in term of points during the previous season but how much should we trust the statistics of the last season knowing that the league was missing a lot of solid players? Trey for 16 bods is a good price. I’m interested to see how much Rocko will produce in his rookie season the guy was looking sharp in the combine. Steal: Weazle for 3 bods Question mark: Same team same result? ----------------------------------------------------------------- MIDDLE TEAMS ON PAPER ------------------------------------------------------------ Pale/Barrett – Soulless Projected lineup: Shotgun - P4le/ Barrett - Sauce Kelch – Zturtle/MFK Jsquad I think Pale and Barrett did a solid job with their team. P4le and Barrett both have chem with Sauce so that might be interesting. Shotgun at LW might be the major weakness of this team. Shotgun only played 3 games last season at LW this was his first appearance at LW since S18. I really like the d-pair of Kelch and Turtle. Kelch can contribute a lot at LD and Turtle is probably the most versatile FT player this season. Steal: Sauce for 32 bods Question mark: Can Shotgun step up at LW? A1xFREAKx13 – The Freak Show Projected lineup: Schemmm – A1 - Surpriseme Daysofrevenge – Dom Pogs Schemmm at 49 bods might be a little overpaid compared to the other two players who went for 49 bods: Vibe and BLK. I think overall this team can be really solid. Schemmm and A1 have developed a good chem last season which allowed them to reach the final. Dom was the second best Dmen in this draftpool. Surpriseme and Days for 2 bods is shocking. The big concern is Pogs who only played 8 games at the G position with a .375 W%. Steal: Daysofrevenge for 1 bod Question mark: Pogs in net Dmart – Lot Lizards Projected lineup: Sniper – Lemanski - Dmart Marty – Gyneman Pensfan Dmart and Lemanski will be nasty together. Lemanski is a stud and getting him at 45 bods is a really good price. He played C for the first time in 239 last season and he was getting better and better each game. Sniper and Dmart have chem so I’m pretty sure the offence will be fine. The main question in this team is the defense. Marty hasn’t played more than 5 games at LD since S17 and Gyneman hasn’t played D in this league since S22. The duo might be a little rusty in the start of the season. Steal: Pensfan for 5 bods Question mark: Marty and Gyneman duo HallOfFame – Breaking Bones Projected lineup: Sejje – Ronin - Ozzy Jimmy – HOF xx of a kind Happy with the team. Sejje will carry us hard. Ronin is a stud at C confirmed. Ozzy is the second most productive RW in the history of 239. Jimmy is already my favorite LD partner ever. Xx of a kind is a wall. I have 1 ping. Steal: Ronin for 12 bods Question mark: Ronin at C 13IG Cee – Social Security Members Projected lineup: Chum – Young Buff – Big Cee See Dub/Dvetts – Gala NotEvenGood/Schielf The goalie duo is very solid. Good for 8 bods is a steal. Chum and Cee have chem together will be interesting to see how Buff fits between these two. LD is looking good with both Dub and Dvetts. Gala needs to play like he did with the Bloodline in season 25 if he wants his team to be successful. Steal: NotEvenGood at 8 bods Question mark: Gala at RD ----------------------------------------------------------------- TOP 2 TEAMS ON PAPER -------------------------------------------------------------- Wizzywar – Delayed Gratification Projected lineup: Hylightt – Mash – Wizzy Odd – Adam Salty/Google/Adebrincat Like Ando said Hylightt is an underrated guy in 239. Pretty sure he will have a breakout season by playing with Mash and Wizzy. Mash for 50 bods is not surprising he was the best C available in this draft and one of the best if not the best forward in this draftpool. Like Dmart team I think the main concern of this team is to know if the defense can step up? Adam is getting better and better every season. Odd for 15 bods is a steal but he hasn’t played a full season at LD since a very long time. Steal: Odd for 15 bods Question mark: Odd and Adam duo Alprazoholic – CRE Projected lineup: JRD – Alprazoholic – Vibe Bluelineking – HalfSack/WaiverRep Agent Murphy BLK carried a team who had not a single superstar to a chip last season. This season he has Vibe and Regretzky to help him repeat this feat. I’m interested by JRD at LW. He’s known to produce a lot of points to the right of Sejje… can he do the same or even more by playing with Vibe and Regretzky? Half at LD is a concern but he’s playing with the best Dmen in this league so he should be fine. Steal: JRD for 2 bods Question mark: JRD at LW?
