Looks okay a few risks.

Sam Gray still needs to keep doing what he is doing but with a full strength port
im very unsure on lonergan i think he is at a weird price
your mids are stacks could probably do without one of the big dogs like say pendles and upgrade lonergan
also not having either martin or deledio is a bit concern too however i do rate your side just a few changes id make :)

Disagree with ando_10 above in terms of the mids being stacked, its prob the weakest mid I've seen, but in saying that every other line is very solid.  A lot of teams have 1 extra premo at the expense of a backman and Mills at M8, but looking at your team it looks just as solid.  Only thing I might do is upgrade Gray or Hall to a forward premo with the extra cash.

S. Gray is a jet IMO. The end of last year he was killing it. I can see him being a keeper and average 95 max.
I agree on Lonergan, but he has been slated to take a midfield spot in light of all the suns on going injuries. He can be upgraded or downgraded if necessary.
I see my mids as being light to be honest, but i think it needs to be, to sure up other lines.
Lids is over priced and Martin is at his ceiling IMO and can't see him averaging more than 105. Will be cheaper during the year.

Thanks for your input! :)

I'm ok with the mid's being a little weaker than most other teams. IMO I see Libba as a keeper. People seem to forget he averaged 110 a few years back. Weather or not he can again I'm not sure, but I have high hopes. I agree I could use one more extra keeper on FWD or DEF. I'll look into it

Cheers for the input! :)

I'd downgrade McCarthy to AMT, then use all that cash to go Laird/Simpson--->Shaw. Aside from that, looks good.

For me you need one more premo mid. Otherwise you might get caught playing catch up and losing trades. Looks good otherwise.

Shaw a bit expensive but will probably be #1 again. Considering

So like every other team? Haha. Trying something different. Lack of cheaper rookies is making it difficult to go really big in the MIDS IMO. Unless some pop up soon.

Thanks! :)

No Rocky!!

I know! Haha. I'm a bit concerned. Got a hammy issue and might play forward a lot early. Still considering.

I'd much prefer a premium and a rookie over both of Libba and Crouch. If it messes with your structure too much or you prefer it the way it is, great! Just my two cents.

What premium/rookie combo would you prefer? Mid premo would have to be like under 540k

For me personally, Wines + Oliver.

You're spending an extra 100k there though. If going with Wines, rookie would have to be around 120k or so
