Hey all,

Given backs are usually low scorers I've gone cheap in the backline and bucked the trend and gone with 2 premium rucks.

B: Goddard, Deledio, Malceski, Lake, Clarke, Bugg, Ellis (Mohr, Morris)
M: Ablett (C), Rockliff, Selwood, Mitchell, Shiel, Magner (McDonald, Ledger)
R: Cox, Mumford (Giles, Redden)
F: Franklin, Chapman, Martin, Riewoldt, Dangerfield, Smith, Kennedy (Hall, Dickson)

Few uniques in Rockliff, Mitchell & Gray

Banking on upgrading Clarke, Bugg, Ellis, Shiel, Magner, Smith, Kennedy

Edit: Changed Gray to Riewoldt, apparently he's playing more up the ground so backing him to get back to 100+ average

What do you think?

Cheers

I had Gray last year. Big let down for the first like 10-15 games...
Same thing COULD happen again.. Don't trust him.

Otherwise your team looks alright. Fair bit of cash gain out of your backline, Malceski and Lake SHOULD become Prems once again.

8.5/10

p.s I love Rockliff! Freak!

Talking Sam Mitchell not tom mitchell the swans rookie right?

Like the idea of starting of Cox, could be a unique that will gain you a of points at the start of the year.

Like Gray as a unique in hte fwd line, would be a premium in a better side but could still score big this year with an increase in midfield time.

You are losing a lot of points in the backline though and really need all your rookies, including Lake and clarke to play. Perhaps downgrading one of Gray/Dangerfield would allow you to get an extra premium in your backline, whilst keeping your strong mids.
