Am I on the right track?

First year of Dream Team for me and I'm a bit iffy on what selections to make, especially with the rookies.

So far my side looks like this.

D: Goddard, H. Shaw, Deledio, Hanley, Hargrave, B. Ellis, B. Smedts, (T. Bugg, S. Darley)

I'm not sure about Hanley but I've attempted to minimise the damage done by the bye and only having two missing at once (assuming b. ellis is to get upgraded prior to r13 bye).  Two GWS rookies has me a little bit iffy as well, but I'm really struggling to find a half decent defensive rookie with good JS.

M: Swan, Boyd, Ablett, Rockliff, D. Smith, S. Kerridge (C. Smith, J. Magner)

4 premiums here - still unsure whether to go 3/3 or 4/2. Magner is obviously depending on injury & upgrade.

R: Mumford, McEvoy (Giles, J. Redden)

Servicable rucks, ideally Cox would slot in but cash constraints have forced me to look at these two.  Could potentially upgrade McEvoy if needed.

F: Franklin, Fyfe, D.Martin, Sidebottom, Porplyzia, Saad, Cameron (A. Hall, T. Couch)

Saad will probably have crap JS so I'll end up getting rid of him early I imagine, I just picked him because of STK's relatively easy starting run.  Porpoise will hopefully average a decent amount.  Aaron Hall is a bit iffy but I've liked what I've seen him (very little), and T. Couch depends on rookie list elevation.


56.9k left over in the kitty.

There's a few risks in here and I'm worried that I might have gone a little bit overboard in those departments and not gone with solid enough picks.

Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

looks like a very good side piggy.  just the obvious and wait to see which rooks will play

[SuperSkill]

I'm a little worried by Richmond's draw to be picking Martin early. Same goes for Delidio -- Upgrade targets for me. Youve also chosen 2 premium rucks without Cox? Otherwise its brilliant

mate i love it good premos, good rooks and nice smokies,
love the balanced structure

[Master Q]

Not a bad team. Pretty balanced although Backs a little shallow.

Prefer the Burger over McEvoy but that's just me...

8/10

Good structures very simlar to my team :P i am definately not sold on mummy as a dt prospect i reckon lue/jacobs/hmac will all score similarly if not more!! Im going lue mcevoy i think to start!! Both will improve massively this year and have plenty of upside. Hanley is a lock for me he racks up so much cheap ball in that lions defence. Get kerridge in the forwards and put in clifton in the mids, hope that helps :)
