Love taking risks, but have I taken too many?

Before you guys get stuck into me, let me just explain a few of my picks :P

- i realise that there is some doubt over rookies like magner, luke brown and hall. but they are there for now.

- my forwards are loaded for a reason, the rookies up front this year are very average to say the least.

- I'm very concerned with the defender premiums this year, so have tried to look for more value in the backs rather than setting and forgetting.

- I think my forward line is too risky, but i just can't bring myself to get rid of gray or danger, they are looking too good this preseason. May possibly upgrade gray to martin...

-I like the idea of having a mid pricer at M4 rather than a rookie. can't decide over mccarthy/masten/caddy though. could downgrade to clifton however to free up cash.

- if guthrie plays next week he will stay. now with wojo injured his job security looks a lot better. could upgrade to Taylor hunt if needed. like the look of either of these Geelong mid pricers.

- Paul stewart has played midfield all preseason and could quite possibly average 80-85 this season. however don't know if i will have the balls to pick him come round 1. Looking at maybe upgrading to someone like waters, don't think i could put another rookie in my backline, would make it too weak.

- Stewart to Brodie smith from the crows is another possibility to free up 40k. thoughts?

Not some bad reasons but yeah I would say it's a bit too risky.
