Looks good so far decided not go for one of the Swablett combo.

Injury prone ruck line may want someone with a better chance of lasting the full season.

Wouldn't waste money on Bock.

The rucks are suspect I agree but..... just waiting for preseason

in the back half was either Grimes or Swallow - on Ablett, have always started with him but I think Pendels will out perform him this year while Watson, Barlow etc have good upside

Nice unique team here only problem is that i would get a cheaper option than Bock on your forward line bench.
Def: Jack Grimes is the interesting pick here could work prefer Swallow myself.    Apart from that no problems
Mids: Barlow is a  Good POD many have gone for Rockliff in the mids or Both Ablett & Pendlebury with Watson at M3. Not Many have Kelly in there team i think you could get a cheaper midfielder in here.
Rucks: I recommend you upgrade Mcintosh look for someone like Lobbe.
Fwds: The Only fault here apart from bock is that you have Cyril Rioli in your starting he is out suspending so won't play in Round 1.

Team is not too bad it is good to see you have  unique pilayers who may give you an advantage over others i give you 8/10

grimes a worry & the young sun too pricey

might look at not having martin kelly or billings

cant see the point of thurlow if no r/f in forwards to compliment him,either pick bellchambers in forwards or downgrade those 3 above & the young sun,dump thurlow & bring in a grundy or longer as backup to the 2 crocks(btw i like them both also but they must be backed up)

rioli is a fantasy spud,boyd probably wont get a kick,will meet the general & wont rise in price,surely you can pick a better player(fantasy) than rioli with the cash you will save by downgrading all 5(young sun/martin/kelly/billings/boyd)& even a grimes to a d.swallow or fisher might be a further downgrade(forgive me if wrong not sure of grimes price but he consistently gets injured)

on the positive side i like your other 6 backs(not so familiar with cutler),your other 7 mids,both crock rucks(nankervis i guess will go if better pops up at nab challenge)& your 3 big forwards,bit worried about all 3 of fasolo bock & rohan,i might look at switching out rohan,hes never been a great scorer even when fit

Hey Guys
Great feedback - will certainly have a look at the rucks and forwards.  Did not know Rioli was a suspension - work to do
