Cash Left: $201,000

Def: Goddard, Gibbs, Heppell, Bock, L Brown, Staker, Docherty, Van Unen.

Mid: Ablett, Cotchin, Pendlebury, Jack, Whitfield, Kavanagh, O'Meara, K Mitchell, Crouch, Viney

Rucks: McIntosh, Leuenberger, Daw, Sinclair

Forward: Franklin, Cox, Rockliff, Ryder, Martin, Mayes, Macaffer, Atkins

Still some finessing to do I think. In particular the lack of DPP in midfield has me uncomfortable, as it prevents the use of others in reality.
Toying with replacing Jack with Scotland (yeah I know club suspension for first 2 games - short term pain). Also looking at replacing Cotchin with Chapman, Johnson, Bartel, Thomas or Robinson.
Up forward still looking at Lee and Daniher for Mayes and Atkins, figure I might see what NAB shakes out.

Would appreciate thoughts.

Great Forum, and great website - congratulations, very well done.

Cheers

Good, team, good mix of Premo and Rookies, with a couple of mature cash cows. good luck...

Bock probably won`t play round 1 if not out for a few more

I`d drop Whitfield to Wines as Whitfield is a bit too pricey.
I`d put Rowe in my rucks for DPP link with Cox.
I would not bring in Chapman as he`ll play more forward this season and his scoring will suffer.

i agree with luvfooty, keep cotch and wines seems like a good way to go, think he ll get a run early with Port

id get another premo in the backs, with $200k left turn bock into grimes/stanley. jack will have a good year but for the $$ your payin id go moloney or ball and can then upgrade mcintosh to a goldstein. change a ruck rookie for mcbean so u have DPP with cox as security for the rucks and pick ur FWD rookies well incase cox does need to go to Rucks.

I'd swap Kav to a premo as he won't get much game time this year as well unless i am mistaken

Strong side will be interested to see how many pick Whitfield. Bock is a bit risky to start and nah to Kavanagh but like the Ryder pick a lot. Good luck with a solid side, hope Jack tears up.
