Please rate my team. I'm a little cautious about starting 3 rookie mids but I have only 7 upgrades to make in my team to have full premiums.

Backs - Goddard Gibbs Deledio broughton duffield grimes otten
(toy hibberd puopolo)

Mids - Swan Montagna Bartel Swallow Harris Gaff
(Mzungu Heppell Callinan)

Rucks - Sandi Cox
(Smith Cornow)

Fwds - Buddy Sylvia Roo Pav Petrie Gamble Kraka
(Smith Matera Mckernan)

Remaining salary is $9500

Thoughts? Suggestions? Changes? Rants?

Not sure who Cornow is as 4th ruck. Is he just a nuffy? Other than that, you have 15 premiums and only need for 7 upgrades (not including injuries) which is probably a good strategy.

Gamble is a bit of a gamble (pun not intended), but could pay off.

Overall your team looks solid all over the park.

Yeh he is a gamble but I think he'll fit into the saints forward line well. And with kosi out at the start of the year gives abit more security. Yeh Cornow is just a nobody.

looks pretty damn solid, only concern would be a little weak in midfield. but that's just me :)

I was abit iffy on choosing both duffield and broughton but I don't like anyone else in that price bracket. Was thinking of downgrading to adcock but theres nowhere to upgrade by 80k.

2 premiums from same team in same position is a little dangerous... but understand your delimma!

Made a few changes to my team. Having 3 mid rookies was too risky I think so changed it to:

Backs - Goddard Gibbs deledio broughton grimes adcock otten
(puopolo hibberd Toy)

Mids - swan montagna bartel sidebottom Harris mzungu
(atley Heppell callinan)

Rucks - sandi cox
(smith Bailey)

Fwds - buddy Sylvia roo Higgins Petrie gamble Kraka
(smith matera Mckernan)

Thoughts?

i like your first team better.

nice stratergy knowing you have 7 doubles to be made and a max of 7 to be upgraded.

you going league or overall? (if league dont worry to much)

if overall.

rd 6 is gonna slap you sideways
backs no broughton duffield or puopolo (no cover)
mids no bartel or mzungu (1 bench)
ruck sandi is out
forw buddy, pav, smith (no cover)

Yeh I'm going for the league win but do still want a good rank come september. Mayb pav --> higgins or duffield to fisher? I can cover pav alot easier cos of all the fwd/mid players.
