Yep Weitering at D3 just won't work now. We'll it could, but you'd be fairly exposed with such a lack of depth

Weitering at D3.

So D4-8 are likely some combination of Dea, Hartley, Brown, McTip, Broad, Adams, Ruggles, maybe Whitecross - with Broad not named are you super confident 5 of them will be named or playing a floating donut in the back? Not asking you guys to name players just thinking that's a risky strategy, I've got Weits at D4 and I'm sweating on 4 rooks being named...

there are 5 guys I trust. no floating donuts for me. Plenty of options there are probably 6 i would get in.

Yep, as I trust the back rookies more than any other lines. Have McTip in the FWDs as a swing man at the moment and i'd like to keep it open. If ruggles doesn't get named along with another, I lose one of the top 5 uber mids and that cash is spent on a few mid pricers.

I'm not having weits at d3 myself but I think it's definitely reasonable set up.

We'll see tonight I guess but the first 4 are the ones I'd take with confidence, hoping Adams gets a gig but Ruggles and Collins seem unlikely.

Turned my D3 into seedsman, having laird and seedsman in the same defence concerns me but thats what ill run with

Jackross10

going to go kk, why not

Weitering pushed back to D5 for me, taking the risk in the forwards instead as i think the cheapies there are a better bet.

D3 either Laird or Rich at the moment.. Shuffling some players around

Dea D6?

I really don't trust anybody below 200k to score decently back there. Whitecross maybe. At the moment I might be lining up with fkn Zac Jones just because I think he'll average 20 better than any sub 180k player back there.

Yeah Dea at D6, i'm much more comfortable having forward rooks on field and risking Wells at F3 than relying on the back rookies for on-field scoring

It's an option, but i think there are also enough DEF basement rooks available who should make 150K or so. I dunno, it's a big rookie juggle this year, i just feel forwards offer more value options this year that will score around 70's rather than 50's from the back rooks.

Simpson, Seedsman, Dea at D3-5. One bottom price rook on field only, dont trust any more than that.
