Judgement Day

[burner11]

Backs: Goddard, Deledio, Broughton, Grimes, Otten, Heppell, B.Smith (Toy, Poupolo, Duigan)
Mids: Swan, Montagna, Cross, Bartel, Mzungu, Callinan (Harris, Illes, D.Swallow)
Rucks: Sandilands, Petrie (Z.Smith, Derickz)
Forwards: N.Riewoldt, Franklin, Green, S.Johnson, Higgins, A.Krakour, Gamble (Richardson, Hale, Matera)

Still a draught but i'm not going Gibbs in my backs due to carl. having the bye in round 24.

Also with the amount of talent with the rookies it afforded me to have Hale on the bench in my forwards to cover the rucks with the byes seeing as though i can't see the rookie rucks scoring as well as Hale so they will be there in case ALL my rucks go down which would be unlucky but i don't have alot of luck each year with my rucks lol. Also Hale is good cover for my forwards.

I'm trying to fit Chappy into my side but might take a risk and trade down a premium back or mid maybe?, But then Chappy's got a slight calf strain and i know how easy they can twang so i'm unsure about him if he gets tightness they could sub. him off.

Sam Illes isn't on the injury list for GCS so i'm not sure what the go is there but he did win thier B&F last year and was thier highest possession getter as well.

I have my eye on a few rookies that are'nt in the "regular" sides iv'e been watching but that's my little secret ;-).

Am open for advice, Fire away fellow Coaches and good luck yourselves :-D

just to confirm burner, Carlton bye Rd23 which would be DT prelim final time.

like your back and midfield - just not sure on your all GC bench meaning you have to have Callinan on the field - assuming you'll be upgrading some GC players before Rd9.

use of Hale is very interesting ...

i think you can have Chappy as an upgrade target - just not sure on Gamble and i'm not going to make the pun ...  ;)

good luck!
