Reid (syd), Tarrant (nm). Biased me thinks Tom Williams will start to add a bit of attack to his game and try to emulate the master(Lake).

Seb Tape, Josh Toy, Danny Stanley will all get plenty of games. If you want someone who you know is going to play every week then go for Peter Faulks. wont score much, but he will take Tarrant's spot at full back for Freo.

But i'd be going with Brodie Smith.

wow thanks yeah alot of good players i might go with tape, his been playing well preseason, and he will be missing 1st round but im very sure puopolo should start first round?

liked the look of duigan and coad over nab, might hopefully get games

Just pick whoever is playing in round 1, and have Toy on the bench to bring in for round 2. He is a STAR.

yeah i have toy he is a gun and same with duigan!
so do you think this is a weak backline:

goddard,gibbs,deledio,grimes,otten,heppel,tape.

toy,duigan,puopolo

Most people have Broughton/Enright in theirs too, so yours is weak compared to theirs. But your mids are probably stronger than most, and mids score more than backs so thats the way to go maybe.

I would ditch Hodge and buy Callan Ward. then get rid of Tape and get Hurn. But i's not my team.

That's exactly why i've got him. He is a star in the making. Wasn't fit at all last year. Scored 127 in the prelim against the Saints and that's just a glimpse of what he can do. Has had a ripping pre-season and he is the real value from the dogs, not Higgins who everyone is talking about.

yeah picked up boyd aswell a unique who never disappoints i have him every year always scores well for me

I'm not sure that he could be called unique this year. He's getting popular, but Crossy is still the real star from the bulldogs. I see a lot of Cross in Callan Ward so that may be why i like him so much.
