Good team mate, similar to mine.. alsosimilar to everyone elses by the looks of it.
Solid in every line, but risk factor = 0.
what ive realised is that good teams wont win SC, you may get top 10K ranking but need to make some gutsy decisions and get some POD's.
Good luck

yep ^ agreed.
Solid and standard.

Hanley will get tagged and has a hard draw. Perhaps Thompson would be more ideal as North have a softer draw and has shown he can get possessions as well as take contested marks. Swallow is an iffy pick. Look at someone a little more proven who had a bad year last year but could jump 10-15 in average points this season. With Daisy you'll get one look at him so depending on what you see there may be a change needed. Everyone is getting sucked in by Franklin's low price. Tippet could be the real points getter in the Sydney fwd line as he'll be getting the 2nd best defender every week. All in all you need to have a play around and see what you can come up with. Good luck mate

Cheers guys, some great feedback. I agree, too safe, but where to take the calculated risks seems another matter.

Back to the drawing board...

Hi Guys ii haven't posted on here for a few days due to the chemo affecting me and having lossof balance luckily i have my mum and brother to hold me from falling back.

Backs: Great defence but most people will have these so maybe look at a unique pick such as Enright instead of Hanley that is the sort of thing you need do to seperate yourself from the pack.
Mids: only risk here if any is Thomas hopefully he gets through the whole season.
Rucks: Solid i think leuey should do well even though the lions have a tough draw
Fwds: Solid line here two here if you want go different to other teams by leaving Franklin out then i would go for the most accuate kick in Gunston.

But as your team stands i give it an 8.5/10

That's terrible Johnny, all the best for future treatment mate.

Thanks for your great feedback. I'm a bit concerned about Enright - I fear he's getting near Joel Corey territory and may just have a year to forget...

Buddy concerns me - a lot. Especially with Tippet there. I like Gunstan but will he rack up enough possession to make it count?

One more - Michie Vs Ellis in the mids? Both have started well.
