im STILL swapping and changing my rookies. but this is what im leaning towards!

Looks really good.

Backs are strong

Mids are good with the main risk being Lenny.

Rucks, I've gone the same way.

I'm not sure what cash you have left but I'm not quite sold on your forwards. There is only one absoluate premium in there and whilst I think Martin, Cloke and Riewoldt are ok, I doubt any of them will be in the top 10 by season's end. No love for Fyfe or Pav?

[dano_monaz]

yeah look, im not sold on pav for this year, just because i reckon if ross lyon keeps his game plan then a forward like pav will have 2/3 guys on him at a time. same thing happened to rooey and as a saints supporter i reckon that lyons game plan was a main cause to rooeys form slump just because the quicker the ball comes into a forward line, the easier it is for a forward.
just the way i see it haha - fyfe is JUST out.

Hi mate, I like your team mostly, but don't like some of your rookie choices:

DEF: Guthrie/Boumann - there are better & cheaper options available (Morris/Bugg/Mohr)

MID: Kerridge seems destined to vest it up hard
       Mitchell hasn't had a single run yet, apparently training in the rehab group
       Hogan - there are better/cheaper options (Magner/Ledger/Clifton/Miles)

RUCK: No dramas

FWD: Smedts - surely there are better options (Pfeiffer/Dickson)

I see you have JRoo. I don't rate him, he gave me nothing but grief last year, in my opinion he's best avoided. Also, I'd take Fyfe over Cloke.

Hope that helps.

[dano_monaz]

thanks mate - yeah im hoping that j roo is injury free this year.
and im tossing up between fyfe and cloke atm

thanks mate!
