I haven't really paid attention to AFL Fantasy at all in the pre-season and I kinda realised oh god, the season is about to start soon and I haven't even done my research. So this is my team with little or no research haha :P constructive criticism would be good :)

Seedsman is injured mate! Apart from that, not too bad a side, few good uniques in Ellis and Ebert, good luck for the year!

I don't know whether to go Scooter and Thomas or Rockliff and Ellis  :-\

I'd go Rockliff and Thomas! Hanley is a better pick than Lumumba I think, and 12k cheaper. Also Clark is injured too. I'd try to get longer in there instead of currie, he'll be the saints no.1 pretty quickly.

I seem to disagree with you slightly on HL and Hanley. HL was really good last season and his role seems to haven't changed during the first NAB game, I expect him to be rebounding and playing on the wing picking of handball receives and +6s. Also Hanley is more likely to be tag and too succumb to a tag, this is just opinion but you know what I mean.

Also Longer isn't guaranteed to be number 1 ruck, he is competing with Hickey. Time will tell.

I changed it again... jeez I'm so indecisive haha
