Getting there except for the rookie lottery

$41 000 left. I have tried to keep the backs modest and I guess they have the potential to grow or die on the vine.

Happy with the mids, rucks and forwards and the dpp's.

Nice effort, some suggestions from my perspective:

Would suggest you have Goddard as a must.
Docherty may not player early due to injury.
Never heard of Bagulay .. suggest you swap out
Morabito unlikely to play early games either
Polec an interesting pick - haven't head anything about his preseason?

[dazza65]

Goddard may well star even though it might turn out to be pretty ordinary season for the Saints - prepared to risk him
Hadn't picked up on Docherty, thanks there.
Baguley is a 24 y/o who was designated kicker at Frankston - a mature age recruit who should play early but is on NAB watch
Polec has bulked up over pre-season and is a likely r1 candidate with skill and speed to burn - banking on him also having a bigger tank.
Morabito is a worry but with polec and conoglio I can bench him early and save a trade while he warms up in the WAFL

I agree there's some tinkering to do but the core seems right

I will have to keep an eye on Baguley in the NAB ... is he on the senior list or rookie list?
Like the thinking behind Morabito ... although risky with so many good midfield rookies.

Would you mind rating my team:

Baguley is a rookie lister but then so was duigan will take a look at your squad

Very unique team and interesting strategy with defence.
Suggestions:
Would move Martin to Forwards at expense of Zaharakis. Then another mid to replace Martin. Mids would look at both Polec and Morabito as Polec imo will also struggle to get games with Brisbane.
Def is your weak area and if possible I would try and get one prem in there to assist your strategy.
Rating 6.5/10 mainly due to unproven defense strategy but Good luck.
