How much cash left?

Def: Apart from the Rich pick this is a solid line with proven premos in McVeigh and Bartel and a calculated risk with Smith. Rich in his career has a best average just a tick over 90 and to me is not a keeper option. There are many better picks at the price. The rookies are the most relevant picks

Mid: I cannot fault this line but Menegola suffered an injury in the practice game against Collingwood and may need to replace him

Ruck: Currie is a poor R3 pick let alone an R2 pick. He is behind Nicholls at the suns and is not guaranteed matches. You need to replace him for sure.

Fwd: Bennell has been underdone and unlikely to be ready for round 1 and is Toby Greene best 22? If he is what is his role. If he was to gain more mid time with the departure of Treloar he would be a decent pick but he butchers the ball and the likelihood is be will be a tagger/forward shut down player.

Solid start none the less but definitely need to fix R2 as a priority.
