what changes would you make

[GoLions]

Malceski I see dropping in price, would swap him for Simpson
Thompson is way too risky, likely he won't get back to that 90ish avg. Would swap him for a Birchall/Hibberd/Shaw/Smith/etc
Don't see Wines improving a lot myself. If you're sold on him, keep him, otherwise I would maybe turn him into a Hanners or Danger (similar-ish price), or if you choose to get a super premo, a Ward/Barlow/JPK/Sloane etc
Don't like Ryder in the rucks. Moved to a new club, where Lobb will likely be doing most of the ruck work, don't know how it will impact his scoring. Would trade him for one of Goldy/NicNat/Minson/Maric
Forwards are good

Alternatively with Wines, you can downgrade him to a rookie such as Vandenburg, and use the cash to make another upgrade in your defence, as there aren't many rookie options this year.

Hey man lets have a look.

DEF; Few boys I have question marks on here. 1st is Malceski. His 105ave is a huge year compared to his previous years where he has only ever gone 90 and 96 in the 6 years before. He is also going into a significantly weaker team with different players around him and different structures. The other lad is Thompson. Being a kpp he is very up and down, so you should be able to pick him up a lot cheaper sometime during the year. I also think that Whitecross at D5 is too weak mate. There aren't too many decent rookies in defence this year so many will have whitecross at D6. I wouldn't haven't him any highers. So yeh this line needs a bit of strenghtening.
MIDS: Love your top end premo picks. Be careful with Murphy, he is battling a bit of calf soreness atm. Wines is an interesting pick, you'll really need him to jump up to 105-110+. Rookies are fine at this stage
RUCKS: Like the Ryder POD, and love the Belly pick. You're going to really need better cover though. I'd free up some cash for somone like a Lobb.
FWD: very strong line, and love your premo's here. TMitchell is a great pick and your rookies are good.

Overall there's a bit of work to do to that backline and you need some fwd cover mate
