Backs: Goddard, Hodge, Deledio, Hargrave, Otten, Adcock, N.Krakouer (X.Clarke, Hunt, Talia)
Mids: Swan, Boyd, Bartel, Anthony,D.Swallow, Bennel (A. Krakouer, Hallana, Conca)
Rucks: Cox, Petrie (Smith, Charman)
Fwds: Franklin, Riewoldt, Pavlich, Brown, Pettered, Knights, Darling (Matera,, Tapscott, Wanganeen)

obviously very early and alot will depend on which teams the rookies go to and when the byes are on. Im very happy with the mid and rucks both on field and bench and i like my startng forward line. However the backline looks a bit weak

this is an alternate team using the 3 cheap/rookie mids, i normally dont like this setup but it makes the forwards and backs really strong and it enables the MPP of Waite (fwd line) and talia (backline and also switching pettered with pav

Team 2 I thinks :)

Probablt team 2 as well.

Hargrave risky. Harbrow leaving could help him but don't expect him to have a stunning year. Age against him also. Breakout year so late in the career might be a one off.

Is Hallana, Mitch Hallahan?

mucking around with a 3rd team forward line is very strong especialy with darling on the bench, i made this team thinking about the byes with a bench player i would be happy to start.  Krakouer, Darling and Petrie in the ruck will be great cover

Giving up MPP though :(. But team 3 looks fairly strong around the grounds. Especially in the rucks and up forward.

Could see if you could put Clarke in the midfield to allow for you to at least have a B/C MPP there as well.

im really hoping to find a good fwd/mid to replace matera with as i have quite a few fdd/mid centres in the forward line.
someone like mitch duncan
IM actually thinking of loading up on the top draftees who dont go to goldcoast im hoping someone like hallahan or libatore will end up someone where else as it could be a problem if the went to GC with both Swallow and Bennel in GC. The only good thing is that GC are the first bye so if you have cover for that round you only have 1 bye left and hopefully that will be after round 10 when i have time to upgrade these type of players

liberatore will be going to the dogs under the Father/Son rule i think

Yep. Same with Wallis. First 2 Dogs picks.

i have been looking for any decent fwd/mid who should get some early games for a while, cant find any yet, are there any you guys have found.

dylan mcneil from sydney maybe  ??? was on the cusp of selection this year

Yea I'm looking at him too... Had a great year in the reserves.

Maybe move Petterd to the middle? Should see gametime and is fairly cheap. McNeil is on my radar if he cracks into the first team in the pre season.

It will be hard. Will have to sacrifice one of the last 3 of those midfielders. Don't neccessarily have to use MPP this early so can trade later in the year to get it.

+1

mc neil likely to crack the firsts?

Heard they high props on him over in Sydney. With the retiring of Kirk, might open up a spot for him. If he impresses this pre season, can't see why not.

But will have to wait and see about him. If he gets games, everybody will jump on due to his MPP status and bottom price.

yeah he is in my team for his MPP abilities :)
