I think you should turn byrnes into embley so somthing like
Byrnes ---> Rowe
Crouch ---> Embley

+1, good calls. Byrnes is overkill on the bench, although with forward rookies being so hard to find I have considered it myself. Embley is a must.

I think Byrnes/Knights on the bench is only overkill if there are legitimate FWD rookies options. Aside from Macaffer the next best bet at this stage would be Patton probably who is only 40k less then Byrnes. Ideally I would like a rookies instead of Bynres/Knights but until one presents itself I think an expensive FWD bench might be necessary. Cheers for the comments guys.

Don't mind the team, impressive

But .. Midfield to short, won't be with the early leaders here

yeah this is my main concern (will I lose too many points by having 4 mid rookies starting?)
I really don't know the answer and I guess no one does for sure but there are plenty of mid rookies who look like good scorers and who look like they would avoid the vest so I'm hoping the 4 rookie structure will work for me.

thefuzz Fanplanner squad in the Dream Team competition coached by TheFuzz. Salary cap left: $109,800.

Brendon Goddard, Bryce Gibbs, Pearce Hanley, Nick Vlastuin, Jasper Pittard, Brett Goodes
Lewis Stevenson, Dean Terlich

Dane Swan, Gary Ablett jnr, Jack Redden, Scott Pendlebury, Oliver Wines, Jesse Lonergan, Kane Mitchell, Brad Crouch
Jaeger O'Meara, Jack Viney

Dean Cox, Ivan Maric
Sam Rowe, Daniel Currie

Dayne Zorko, Tom Rockliff, Nick Riewoldt, Dustin Martin, Patrick Karnezis, Shannon Byrnes
Jonathon Patton, Brent Macaffer
100k left over. The obvious places to use the cash is on Hanley or Redden but both should start the season well with both having good records against WB.
Any thoughts?
