Mids - Ablett, Selwood, Thomas, Barlow, Bastinac, Van Berlo, Coniglio, Shield
Ruc - Roughead, West, Giles, Stephensen
Fwd - Franklin, Zaharakis, Reiwoldt. N, Brown. J, Christensen, McKernan. S, Magin Folau, Zorko

Thanks in advance

Hey Mate,
IMO you have certainly gone to heavy in the mids. Try replaing Van Berlo and Bastinac with genuine rookies.
You will then have more money to fix up your defence. Goddard and lids = perfect but your next 3 are risky and you could do better.
RUC: wouldn't go Roughead as he did have a really serious achilles injury and IMO won't be back to full flight until July/August.
FWD: Pretty good. McKernan is an interesting pick. Could help Jacobs in the ruck this year a lot more.

Overall: Not to bad mate for a first year!! 7/10
