Is this me being greedy?

Too many midfielders?

I would downgrade Thomas to Ellis and then use the cash on the backline but I don't see a problem with it otherwise.

Just may not be enough keepers in that team.

Hard to predict, and with so many speculative buys, you could come a cropper.

It looks really good to me. I don't fully understand the need to have balance across the lines. Do you really care if you get 1000 out of you midfield and then only 1500 or so out of the other three lines?

I see it like golf. You don't draw a picture, you just write down the score.

Agree. I count 9 keepers, and 5 maybes. Think you need a reliable ruck in there, and perhaps one more defender.

At this stage I think your bench has only 2/3 players at best who will actually get game time (Fuller, Nankervis, maybe Garlett, maybe Crouch). Plus I count 12 out in round 8, will you be able to get every single other player on field in order to have 18 scoring? That's assuming they're even playing?

Imo i dont really like zorko i would change zorko to pav

Looking at this team as has been said there are not enough real keepers here.

Here are the problems as I see it

1. With so few definite keepers you have 4 mid premiums (Ablett, Pendles, Beams and Ziebell) with Round 8 byes.
2. Rucks are weak but may pay off,
Couple of suggestions look for a Round 9 or 10 premium that will allow balance Libba, Rocky, Griffen, Steven for example.

Downgrade Thomas Ellis and then use to strengthen rucks

Thanks guys.
As you can tell, I hadnt saved that team because I was just fidgeting with it and trying to see if I can squeeze in a couple extra proven midfielders.

Not sure on Pav>Zorko with his injury concerns of last couple seasons.

Current team has D. Swallow instead of Kade K and McEvoy instead of Hickey (obviously Thomas/Caddy made way for them).
