So since the leunberger debarkle that has everybody worried about him for round 1 i have gone back and made changes to make my rucks so that i may not need to change them all season (depending on injuries and cash cows)

In doing this i have taken grimes out of my backs (hopefully he wont start too good and maybe pick him up later)

Midfield has stayed exactly the same, love murphy and think kennedy will kill it.. thompson needs to have awesome form like last season. Cotchin and ablett i think should be in every team.. premium guns!

Cox is always dominant and with Natanui set to miss round 1 and maybe further cox seems perfect to average big numbers and quickly get into form. As for roughy he could be changed to another ruck but i do like roughy for his versatility (Mumford has an easy three weeks, jacobs could produce with a good midfield in adelaide, Goldstein really doesnt look like hes going to be the gun he was two years ago and with two high priced ruckmen at essendon they may be sharing hit outs and goals.

My forward line did have cox in it before the changes, martin comes into the forward line.. can anyone think of any other names around the price which may turn into serious guns? rookies can be changed though i like rowe there in case i need to bring cox or roughy into my forward line.

Also any rookie guns i am missing out on?
Any players i should have instead of Roughhead? Martin? Robinson?
Rockliff is also being tossed up with zorko? i dont like the thought of taking martin ot and putting zorko in and having 3 lions players?


Defence: Goddard, Gibbs, Heppell, Vlastuin, Docherty, Goodes (Stevenson, Terlich)
Midfield: Ablett, Cotchin, Thompson, Kennedy, Murphy, Lonergan, Mitchell, Crouch (Mayes, Omera)
Rucks: Cox, Roughhead (Currie, Daw)
Forwards: Franklin, Rockliff, Robinson, Martin, Macaffer, Karnezis (Neade, Rowe)

Hanley over Heppell is an option, if only just for round 1 (Hanley has a good record against WB)
I have heaps of faith in pittard even though he hasnt shown much in the NAB. Consider him for docherty; Pittard should have better JS and scoring potential.
No viney? Mayes has questionable js.
I have no faith in Neade at all. Ben Kennedy should play early while daisy,ball, dids are still out.

Thanks for the reply mate.

I like heppell over handley,think heppell could seriously break iut over 100 this year. Im not making plans to trade in and out for any rounds as you never know who might get injured.. so I go with the best players I want throughout the season.. not someone with an easy matchup then a difficult one.

Rookies deffinetly ready yet.. got ti see ins and out before then..

Last night made the changr of mayes to wines.. really dont know about viney yet.

Also went out and swapped rockliff for zorko
