Hey guys, this is my first time DT'ing and I'd love to hear your thoughts or any advice on my team so far!? :) I'm struggling to make the changes I want to spend the money I have left.... not sure who to sacrifice or who to gain! Any thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks so much :)

DEF: Scotland, Goddard, Deledio, Hargrave, Guthrie, Clarke, Ellis, (Bugg), (Smedts)

MID: Pendlebury, Ablett, Thompson, Judd, Shiel, Pfeiffer, (McDonald), (Magner)

RUCK: Mumford, Giles, (Redden), (Stephenson)

FWD: Franklin, Goodes, Fyfe, Cloke, Martin, Dangerfield, Smith, (Kennedy), (Dickson)

Def; Risky. Scotland has a court case coming up that should be fine but is worth noting. I'm a little worried at the JS of Guthrie and Clarke and think there are better options - Maybe upgrage Guthrie to a Golby or Dempsey, and downgrage Clarke to Morris?

Mids; Judd's a great player, but Gibbs and Murphy are far better DT's IMO, upgrade if possible.

Rucks; Same as mine.

Fwds; Strong line!

Overall a solid effort mate!

upgrade judd heaps better mid options and downgrade scotland to heppel,birchall etc and then upgrade guthrie / clarke to mid pricer and you'll have one solid team m8

Thanks guys! Ok what about...

DEF: ????, Goddard, Deledio, Hargrave, Golby, Morris, Ellis, (Bugg), (Smedts)

MID: Pendlebury, Ablett, Thompson, Selwood, Shiel, Pfeiffer, (McDonald), (Magner)

RUCK: Mumford, Giles, (Redden), (Stephenson)

FWD: Franklin, Goodes, Fyfe, Cloke, Martin, Dangerfield, Smith, (Kennedy), (Dickson)

$465,700 Remaining so Carrazzo, Shaw, Heppell, Birchall?????????

Or put M.Clarke back in take out Morris and can afford Heppell??

Swapped Judd to Selwood.... was there a better option?

Any thoughts greatly appreciated!! :) I'm learning... haha ;)

Not sure why it has to change all my question marks to faces... but anyways.. sorry..

Personally I would go with Shaw, a lot of people are worried about his off field brain fades but I'm backing him in this year!
Morris is going to play every week whereas Clarke has to break in to an already settled side. Stick with Morris.
Judd to Selwood is a great option, he'll score points week in, week out!
