Risky team with Breakout players?

[SilentBob]

Mind you, if you still want to utilize some back rooks and count out the fwd rooks you could try something like this.

DEF: B. Goddard, B. Gibbs, M. Suckling, H. Hartlett, B. Goodes, L. Stevenson (S. Colquhoun, D. Terlich)
MID: M. Boyd, S. Selwood, T. Greene, H. Bennell, C. Masten, O. Wines, K. Mitchell, B. Crouch (J. O'Meara, J. Viney)
RUC: T. Goldstein, M. Leuenberger (M. Daw, S. Rowe)
FWD: D. Zorko, T. Rockliff, M. Robinson, N. Riewoldt, D. Martin, G. Broughton (S. Kerridge, B. Kennedy)
CASH LEFT: $14,400

I like a lot about this side - Greene & S Selwood in the mids in particular - as well as the forwards being all premiums or premium-like), although some of the drawbacks (2 playing rookie backs, no Swan/Ablett uber-premium & Goldstein looking uninterested so far) keep me from going towards a team in that vein.

i understand silentbob but remember this was a quick pick side. with further thought it could be tweaked nicely.

you question running 2 rook backs. Well ive seen many a team with two rook backs or even a tambling thrown in but this eg team negates the need for a playing fwd rook where the options are just not deliscious enough yet.

to drop masten to rook to upgrade a back rook to a better backman would the resulting combo outperform masten/goodes for eg. time will tell.

boyd could nicely slot in as C or be tweaked to say ablett if necessary.

Goldstein and leuy who im not liking at this stage could be changed quite easily.

I'm simply considering two stategies where teams are different and the final few days before round 1 will be the decider
