defence is ok, could be stronger.
imo too much cash spent in the mids, but i like the players youve picked.
good to see mummy in some sides!
Strong fwds, definitely the right structure!

Hi Bigmac

nice starting team which is solid across the park

I would consider downgrading some of your top end premiums to free up cash and strengthen your backline by adding a 4th premium or mid pricer

eg
GAJ ---> Jelwood = $85k
Rocky -> Sloane = $90k
Gray ---> Bennell = $80k
Eski ----> Shaw = $65k

The only other problem i see is lack of Ruck backup - the inevitable will happen !!
(and by the way, Thurlow is delisted)

good luck

What are your thoughts now?

This teams structure is perfect!
But the picks in certain positions i don't like, but I guess that's personal preference.
Only thing I would suggest is try and find some ruck cover.
Would love to hear your thoughts on Boak!
Wingard is too big a risk for me as there are so many good forwards this year.
Maybe downgrade one of the Big 3 midfielders maybe Rocky to say Fyfe and that should leave you with some money to make Wingard into a premium.
Love the team though.

F: B Deledio, P Ryder, L Franklin, D Swan, M Clark, J Hogan     (T McLean, C Daniel)

I have chosen Ryder as a swingman incase one of Mumford or Kreuzer are injured, which given their injury history, they most likely will be haha.

Thoughts?

Solid, personally id have Belly over Ryder as I think Belly will improve and Ryder as a forward will go backwards. But then you will lose a bit of uniqueness. But then the money you save by going belly you could upgrade that D5

He is spot on.

Dont think Ryder is worth the coin in the fwds, you would be better served with Goddard or martin
Still not a believer in having both GAJ and Rocky.
Solid defense

On quick inspection your mids have 4 rnd 12 bye premiums (and 2 rooks) you might find hard to cover
