$26k left

Not sure about having 3 of the top 4 priced mids
Not sure about leaving Goldstein out but I liked saving $180k and went with Maric. Had him last year and didn't let me down very often.
Not sure about rookies
Not sure about Franklin
A bit light in the backline but the backline showers me, hoping some of the premiums drop in value early and I can bring them in.
A few risks, what do yas think?

Nice team overall.

I like your defence a lot, love the Sheridan pick. Not so sure of Yeo.

I don't like Crouch and Libba in the same midfield, a bit much mid-price madness. Keep Libba for sure.

You have a deep forward line, and I feel that wells is a solid F4 to start the season, so I would downgrade Buddy to a rookie then use the extra cash to upgrade Crouch to a keeper, and Maric! I had Maric last season too, and he let me down a lot.

The memories still burn. My great idea last year was to start Maric over Goldy to save a bit of coin. Just don't it.

Thanks quinny, I'm happy with Yeo. I don't mind the idea about Buddy, I might try downgrade him and get Goldy in.

I thought Maric was OK last year..

Updated. Basically Buddy for Howard, Crouch for Parker, Martin for Goldy.

100% improvement mate, looks great. Can't fault this team now. Just be looking for rookies that are selected round 1.

Much better team - Only real suggestion is maybe look at Grimley for R3 so you can interchange Grimley and Cox to provide ruck cover should Goldy or Steph be out for a game or two. Something to consider when finalising your rookies.

[russty]

Brought in Grimley, cheers

Back line still worries me. I don't know if like having Bartel and Birchall in the same team. I think both will have better years than last year but still undecided if want them both in or not.

How does everyone else think they'll go?

[russty]

Are we having fun yet?  ;)

Another revision:



Had to get Shaw in and got rid of Bartel, still might bring him in for Birchall, not sure yet.

To do that, brought Mummy in for Goldy, Mummy might turn into Gawn, not sure yet.

I know the backline is rubbish but I'm pretty happy with the rest, rookies may change of course. Could downgrade a mid prem and bring in a better backmen.

[russty]

Any thoughts please lads?

Gore, Hartley, Hibberd, Grimley, Kommer and Cox not named so need to rejig.  Like most of us awaiting final teams today to adjust,
