Thoughts on improvements are greatly appreciated! :) I feel as if i may have stacked it in my fwds and in turn left my mids and backs a little weak? What do you guys think?

I had Thomas in my MIDS and took him out. Just a bit too much of an injury risk for my liking at this point.

You could downgrade McVeigh to Hanley, Simpson, Adcock or someone around $450,000-$480,000. Then Upgrade Kolodjashnij to D. Swallow.
This is because I don't know if McVeigh can repeat the year he had last year and improve his average. Whereas Hanley/Simpson/Adcock and Swallow should all improve their averages.

Awesome idea! But I am about 40k short with that idea

Solid side mate, My only fault would be having grimes at D3 would be a lot safer with simpson or hanley ,

Agree with truBlue can be a little risky having grimes at D3

Would like to know your thoughts on Gunston?

Billings is a good pick as i can see him getting plenty of game time

Yeah I will see what i can do because I reckon Grimes could be a bit shaky at D3 :/ I think that Billings will get plenty of game time at the Saints and from what I've heard should score well but i'll see what he's like in the nab.
Ive been following Hawks my whole life and was wrapped when we got Gunston. He has been improving over the past few years and is capable of a big score! He showed this the other night although it was a weak brisbane side. Now with Buddy gone I reckon he will shine this year and he is a bit more exciting and unique than Zorko! So he is a lock for me.
