Looking for something a bit different, with players that finished last season well, have changed clubs, coming back from injury etc. and have the potential to improve. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Cheers.

Salary cap left: $54,200.

Bryce Gibbs, Grant Birchall, Dyson Heppell, Greg Broughton, Nick Vlastuin, Jasper Pittard
Sam Docherty, Dean Terlich

Dayne Beams, Trent Cotchin, Scott Pendlebury, Marc Murphy, Michael Barlow, David Mundy, Jaeger O'Meara, Brad Crouch
Tom Mitchell, Jack Viney

Daniel Currie, Brodie Grundy

Steve Johnson, Dale Thomas, Jordan Lewis, Stefan Martin, Mark LeCras, Travis Varcoe

Mr.Craig

Barlow, while I wouldn't pick him myself, is somewhat underpriced given he averaged 104.5 in his final 9 games. Mundy is in the same boat after having a great end to the year.

But what are they? As mid priced money makers they are too expensive already and as potential keepers they will fall short so neither feels like a wise investment in my opinion.

Martin also has very little reward attached, maybe a 50k price rise if all goes well but he seems like another no man's land pick. I do think you'd be better served turning them into a super premium mid, a mid rookie and a premium forward.

Aside from those guys your side looks pretty strong. Nothing wrong with taking risks but I'd question whether the potential rewards are going to be big enough.

Firstly mitchell and morton will struggle to be in sydneys best 22- they weren't last year and nothing has changed (although I do hope both, especially mitchell, gets a gig sometime soon)
I'd trade martin to knights personally, much more upside.
With this cash I'd go mitchell to wines and lewis to rocky or someone
