LaHug's First Crack

[LaHug]

I thought I could just copy my AF team but I had to make a couple of changes for price reasons and now it just looks wrong... I'll likely do a bit more research during the week (gosh I hope I get the time) but any advice would be very much appreciated!

Your defence is very shaky there. Id downgrade mitchell or treloar and upgrade you defence.

Hmm... I think that's my biggest issue in all of my teams this year. I just don't rate any defenders that highly. Is there anyone particularly good for SC this year?

[JBs-Hawks]

Heath Shaw is my biggest lock in defence.

Something like

Mitchell-->Salem
Smedts-->Simpson

Think you have enough cash for that

Would also consider dropping one of those 200k mids for somene in the 100-150k range, and maybe look at upgrading Treloar if you wish, otherwise keep rest as is

[LaHug]

Smedts -> Simpson
Barlow -> Fyfe
Treloar -> Kennedy
Newton -> Heeney
Mitchell -> Salem

I think that covers all the advice you guys just gave :)

Bellchambers ASADA might be an issue.

Too many premium rookies in mids IMO. A bit of cash out of there might help your backline.

I thought my backline was pretty solid now... :( Who are the cheaper but still good mid rookies?

Belly is a good point. He's much cheaper in AF so it's not so big a risk but it might be an issue here

Touk Miller in Van Berlo out and you collect a cool $98,000      ;)

Backline isn't bad. It's more about squeezing some cash out and maybe getting Goodes at D6?

I think he's still waiting for the right girl

Blissful ignorance speaking but I've never heard of Touk Miller. Is he a legit option?

Hahahahaha........ :( :-[ :'(

Hmm... good reasoning. Would you ditch Dick for Goodes? Or one of the other two?

I've updated my team since so no longer have Cripps.
