Pretty template team I know but a good starting point.
Worries include mummy - injury prone, McCaffer - game time.
Does a 5 premo mid leave my fwd line too weak?

Have been in Hospital since last satrday with a bout of Gastro. that is why i haven't rated any teams.
Carn this is how i rate your team
Backs: Wouldn't Start Docherty apart from that a Solid defence.
Mids: No Problems here 5 top premiums.
Rucks: Strong Ruck Combination
Fwds: Great unique pick in Karnezis looks real good.

Overall: Team has a great balance with the odd unique give it a 8.5/10

Solid team. First team I have seen with 2 premium choice rucks. I would have Coloqhoun over Docherty... Apart from that an extremely solid team. maybe your forwards are a touch weak but not really...

Hospital with gastro, pretty serious.

Thinking maybe Zorko instead of rocky. Coloqhoun is a good pick but don't like having to many port players.

Not sure on Jones... Anyone got a mid rookie under 120k worth it?

Popey99 · March 17, 2013, 12:36:29 AM

Blicavs mate. Should ruck for Geelong for the first 3-4 weeks and then will play as a tall forward. Listed as a midfielder, I know, but his pace is extraordinary! Former steeplechaser... Love him.

Updated squad, I think it has better balance:

Goddard, Gibbs, Hibberd, Vlastuin, Goodes, Pittard (Stevenson, Terlich)
Ablett, Pendles, JPkennedy, Cotchin, Mundy, Moloney, Crouch, O'mera. (Viney, Jones)
Cox, Jacobs. (Rowe, Currie)
Buddy, Rocky, Dusty, Varcoe, Karnezis, McCaffer (Rowe, Lee)

What do you think?

Carn · March 22, 2013, 12:11:50 AM

My new favourite team:

Goddard, Gibbs, Heppel, Vlastuin, Goodes, Pittard (Stevenson, Terlich)
Ablett, Pendles, JPkennedy, Cotchin, Mundy, Wines, Crouch, O'mera (Viney, Mitchell)
Cox, Jacobs. (Rowe, Currie)
Buddy, Rocky, Dusty, JJkennedy, Varcoe, Karnezis (Rowe, McCaffer)

I am not confident that McCaffer will get enough games to start him, and with 6 rookies on the field already I think this is a good idea. What do you think?

Mumford · March 22, 2013, 12:34:14 AM

looks good apart from you have Rowe on your bench in the ruck and fwd line

nightwalker_1310au · March 22, 2013, 09:03:00 AM

Lolls solid cant fault a part from having Rowe in 2 positions mate lol. Rate team 8/10

ha ha...I wouldn't want Rowe twice not sure I want one of him. Bilcavs in
Thanks guys.

Here is where the team ended up:

Goddard, Gibbs, Heppel, Vlastuin, Goodes, Pittard (Stevenson, Terlich)
Ablett, Pendles, Swan, JPkennedy, Mundy, Wines, O'mera Viney, (Mitchell, Jones)
Cox, Jacobs (Blicavs, Currie)
Buddy, Rocky, Bartel, JJkennedy, Karnezis McCaffer (Rowe, Lee)

A) Swan and pendels to many pies?
B) On field mid rooks ok to start?
C) Is MacCaffer a starter?

johnnytheboy1 · March 23, 2013, 04:03:06 PM

Team Looks good although heppell only scored 71 which was a let down
Backs Solid
Mids:strong mundy should score well this year. Midfield Rookies should all start. Would Keep Swan and Pendles unless you are concerned with the Round 13 Bye
Rucks Very Strong
FWDS:MacCafer should start as i believe that he is in the best 22. I think he will take Didaks spot

Overall: Team is looking good Bartel is a good pick up forward. 8/10

Carn · March 23, 2013, 04:28:04 PM

Thanks for the feedback.
So if its 8 out of 10. How can I improve in you opinion? Upgrade heppel?

My theory with this team is that the 13 premos I have could be the top few in each position so I have spent heavy. My whole season depends on how my rookie choices stand up against the mid prices others have selected.

Backs = pretty standard, dont worry about Heppel he will improve.

Mids = Love Swan and Pendles together will win you plenty of league games, not sure about Mundy though will he be top 8 mids end of year? extra trades though so no problem upgrading him.

Rucks = Solid.

Fwds = pretty standard again, not sure about Macaffer either but Bartel seems to be a little unique from the teams I have seen.

Team = very solid 12 to 13 prems depending on Mundy. Not much you could change. 9/10
