190k left in the salary cap

Thanks guys

Really like it well spread out quality team

Only one thing, starting Tom Lee seems too much of a risk chuck Menzel and upgrade to Byrnes or varcoe (not sure if you can afford the latter). Lee will play games, but I doubt he'll be a regular

Thanks for the feedback mate.
Not willing to spend that much coin on Byrnes who I don't think will have as big of an impact as everyone thinks. Varcoe although a bargain, is not a keeper in my eyes as he's looking at an 80 avg and he's too pricey to be much of a cash cow. I'd rather invest in the rookies who have bigger growth potential.
Having said that, the fwd rookies don't look very exciting this year so I may have to opt for Varcoe. My main concern is that I want to keep a bit of cash so I have room to play around.
Thanks again :)

Any other advice would be greatly appreciated

i like the side mate, seems real balanced.

in saying that, i reckon Heppell in between the premo status & a mid pricer & at around $450,000 you can spend a little bit more to ensure yourself of 100+ points per game whereas Heppell may be a bit more up and down. but i guess thats my opinion.

liking the side otherwise, one thing would be to maybe just try for DPP links through the middle via rookies

rate my side if you have time :) : http://www.fanfooty.com.au/forum/index.php/topic,72464.0.html

Nice but Pav and Bartel both worry me.

Cox is better there as F2 with Nicnat earmarked for F3 eventually.

You say Byrnes / Varcoe aren't cashworthy, but I reckon then you should / would / could say the same about your $300 000 plus Ball.

Also, more choice of mid cash cow rookie (CCR) than fwd CCR.

Good luck

i like this team, only thing i have suspicion about pav due to reports of a bad preseason, he will most probably be good, but i would upgrade to cox for more security

apart from that this team seem very good and very balanced with a good 12 keepers and heppell and luey where the sky is the limit for them

a solid 9/10

ps keep an eye out in the nab cup for cheaper rookies who will score similar to wines and menzel, could save a bit more coin which will be good

Def: Strong Defence Can't fault
Mids Seems ok hopefully Luke Ball can Average 90+ and not get reinjured.
Rucks: Standard
Fwds: Maybe Replace Pavlich & Bartel with Walker & Hawkins this would give you even more more to upgrade Ball to a premium

Overall Great Looking team with a few risks give it a 8/10
