All comments welcome so fire away not too worried about rookies waiting for nab cup before I make any decisions

I like this team, it's well balanced with a few nice POD.

My only comment would be to consider whether the money you are paying for guys like Ryder, Hartlett and Martin will pay off... they do have plenty of potential that being said. For this sort of coin I would expect that you feel that these guys have upside and can finish amongst the best in their positions. I guess that's where the risk side of thing comes into play- and we do have more trades to play with this year  :D

Good luck and i hope they pay off for you

Backs: Very Strong Here. Prefer Heppell instead of Hartlett but if he can stay injury free may work out OK.
Mids: Would look at Downgrading Whitfield to Crouch. Is that Joel or Scott selwood in the Mids
Rucks: Ryder hopefully scores high enough just wondering how much Bellchambers will effect his scoring.
Fwds: Very strong here also  good choice of Rookie in Mayes.

Good luck this year and use your trades wisely.

I give your team an 8.5/10

Belks

Yeah tbh I'm not too sure on Hartlett either.....don't really wanna waste another premium down back though and not sure there is anyone better value at that price, I will look into heppell though.

Probably should have mentioned that it was Scott Selwood

Also should have mentioned I have $120k to spare could/should I use it somewhere specific?

FactHunt

You could go Hartlett to Birchall, Scotland or Shaw... I see where you are coming from with his selection though, could get some nice numbers and consistently with finally finding an injury free run.
Otherwise probably Ryder upgrade to ?Sandi- once again Ryder can hit the scoreboard well but is a little inconsistent from week to week.
But with risk you can definitely get reward and you have picked some nice POD.

Just a comment on Ryder.

I looked at his scores and last year he only scored <88 three times.  Pretty good going.

Seems his bad is actually quite good.

PS Goldy had 8 scores < 88.

Good point tor01doc... but don't forget he only played 15 games. 7 were less than the tonne too.

Have you heard something?

Mayes did not play in the intra club trial yesterday as a pre caution  but said to be a definite starter in nAB cup so watch. Highly rated at club being no 8 draft pick.

looks like a very strong side mate, my only thoughts would be Daniher, hird looks like he's going to rest him a fair bit this season, overall great team!
