This is my last draft before NAB, there is no point worrying about rookies and bench players until then but I think the rest of this team is pretty set.
Thoughts?

Your team is loaded with injury prone players, and looks like you could have potential donuts all over the place especially the backline.

Defence looks set as long as they are all good to go.

Mids are fine, do you need the 3 most expensive rookies though?

Rucks are good to go, Warnock on the bench is costing you dollars though, partic when you add these $$ to mora and jetta sitting on the bench in the centers.

Forwards are fine, you know the risk on a few of them.

Agree, no point harping on about the bench, until March.

Decent team, goodluck.

Looks better Tony

Like the rucks much better than your last team

Agree with the comment re the money you are spending on the bench with Morabito and Warnock. 

With that sort of structure I think you'll hit the ground running

Maybe 1 too many injury discounted defenders but I have the same problem

I think Warnock is a smart bench pick: only 30G more than a rookie, and a lock to play the whole season (if fit!!!), so will go up in price quickly, plus is cover for injuries to your starting ruckmen. 

As for Morabito, he's worth the extra money if he's playing (as is any player who actually plays), but it's all a bit wait and see on rookies, isn't it?  At least by planning with expensive rookies, you've got much more flexibility to make late changes if they don't get picked than with bottom priced ones.  It's a smart tactic.

Cheers for the comments boys, at least with the expensive rookies panciled in I can only downgrade them and make money! Having two on the field ATM in the mids kind of counters the prices

I dont know about the comment "Loaded with injury prone players" Morgs, If Waters does not look fit Sheppard may get the gig. Other than that I will monitorall players progress through the rest of Pre-season and NAB
