Like the conglio option, , birchall looks like he might be a must have in defence at his price.
not comfortable with both christensen and bennell returning from injury.  could pay off though.
Take it you see opportunity to grab Danger early in the season at a lower price.   gives you cash to splash but may leave you without a perma captain option.
Good team, well balanced.

[GoLions]

A lot of popular picks there. Would be wary of having both Bundy and Bennell. Also lack of Danger could hurt if he starts well. Apart from that, looks pretty good.

Nice team GB. How about a R/F reserve ruck and English as reserve F/R forward ? Hope I said that the correct way. The only problem with not starting Danger is that many of your opponents will be captaining him against you, great start mate.

[Ringo]

Agree with most of comments above. Not starting Danger could be a master stroke or disaster. The Gazz effect is unknown at this stage.  Will he have to spend more time in the mids or will Gaz and him interchange,

Nice team though.

[enzedder]

Good picks. I’d get Danger though.

I agree with you, No Danger. Too expensive. He will drop in money. Bring him in around Round 6

where do you get the cash to bring in danger?

[Regs81]

by round 6 hopefully you have made a little money and hopefully dangers price has gone down.

If you don't start with Danger you probably wont get him.

That is what happened to me previously with GAJ one year then Docherty last year.   Too important as captains choice and overall total to leave out.    One option is downgrade Birchall to rookie and upgrade Jelwood to Danger.    In end go with your gut and it is ok to be different.   Just another guys thoughts...

Version 2 - 29 Jan 2018

Now that BBL fantasy is coming to a close, it's time to start thinking about SC for 2018.
Still running the 'no danger' gauntlet, and taking a few mid-priced risks.  Otherwise it's a bit boring right!?

thoughts?  Obviously rookies are place-holders, but keen to know if I'm missing anyone.

Im not totally against a team without Danger but I feel as though not having Danger should allow you to get another premium otherwise it isnt worth it.

The fact that you dont have danger and only have a two premium forward line is concerning too me.

I’ve been tweaking my side a lot through the jlt, and a lack of rookies in DEF/FWD means ill need more premos there and less in midfield. I also think mid rookies will score better.
With Darcy Cameron a strong chance to play round 1 or early in season, I’ve decided to bring in Danger as my perma C as I won’t be able to loophole Titch/Dusty
