Hey Guys

The Feedback I got last time helped a lot, and since then I've worked on my team a immensely. I have made my team very balanced especially for the bye rounds and have a variety of players from different teams. Below displays the players who are missing each round due to the bye and each week 10 players are out and I have even balanced it so I have an even amount of premiums missing each round to ensure quality scores during the bye weeks.

Round 11                Round 12         Round 13
T. Cotchin               J. Kennedy      S. Pendlebury
T. Rockliff               N. Naitanui       P. Ryder
G. Birchall              J. Selwood        B. Goddard
N. Fyfe                   S. Johnson        B. Gibbs
L. Bruest                T. Varcoe          G. Broughton
M. Luenenberger     T. Lee               T Menzel
B. Goodes              M. Gawn            L. Osborne
J. Pittard                D. Terlich          B. Crouch
B. Staker               J. Viney             J. O’Meara
N. Hrovat               T. Membrey        J Witts

Anyway enough about the balancing of my team and on to the description.

My Backline is standard got Broughton for the DPP with Staker and he should carve it up at GCS. I’m also taking a punt with Leigh Osborne a mature age rookie.

My Midfield is similar to my backline; I’m taking a stab with Fyfe just hoping he doesn’t get injured. Also got Kennedy due to his breakout year last year and I’m hoping he’ll maintain his form from last year. I’ve also got Selwood because it is his second year as captain and he'll now know what is expected of himself and I’m sure he is in for a ripper season. Cotchin and Pendlebury are definate lock-ins and so far I haven’t seen a team without either of them.

My Rucks are kind of unique, I have Ryder due to the fact that he always starts off the season in awesome form and if he gets injured he would have earned me some dough for another good ruck, also I've got him in with the ruck and forward link with Naitanui. I Have Leuenberger because he had good form before he got injured and he could be a great pick up and could earn me some dosh.

With my Forward line I deliberately don't get power forwards which is why I have Rockliff and Johnson, I know I have Naitanui in the forward line but it is so I have a ruck link with the forward line. I've included Bruest as I believe he may have a breakout year. I've also got Varcoe as he will definitely earn me some dosh and hopefully can return to his 2011 form. Then I have Staker for the link between forward line and backline with Broughton as I mentioned before.

That’s all I really have to say about my team but if you could, I’d love a rate and some constructive criticism.

Cheers Guys

Not a bad looking team. In regards to byes though, the rookies are most likely going to be gone by rd 11/12/13 anyway - meaning the shouldn't really come into consideration for you bye equality list. Take defense for example, you've got 3 keepers that share the rd 13 bye (God/Gibbs/Broughton) and only 2 bench spots for that round. I'm personally going to almost ignore bye structure for now, as last year injuries and lack of trades screwed everyone before the byes did anyway.

Well done mate i cant really fault it

but Nic Nat has doubts over him to play round 1 so maybe look at Cox instead

and yeah i'd only worry about byes with your premos as rookies will change to much by then and you should just be getting whoever is named round 1 not worrying about byes

Nice solid team

Should not be worrying about byes from Round 1 as rookies will change - Select best possible team.  New rules for bye rounds and with 30 trades for season do not think this is as critical as in previous years,

Only further suggestion I have for Team is replace Witts with McBean or Rowe to allow further DPP flexibility. That way you can cover short term ruck injuries without burning a trade.

Nice POD with Breust which may or may not pay off.

Hi mate here's what I think of your team;
DEF: Good, though Goodes is rookie listed so can't play.
MID: Very good.
RUCK: Good, like Ryder as POD. Don't like bench - Witts/Gawn, will either get a single game?
FWD: Good. Though I can't see Membrey getting a game.

These are really minor & standard criticism's, which are common to all teams. Good work mate.
