Hi Guys,
I'm a Queenslander who has switched to AFL. I have spent many weeks researching players and have come up with what I think is a good team.
Can you guys please give me some feedback with your thoughts on this team:
Backs S Fisher H Shaw C Cornes T Lockyer A Raines J Grimes M Egan M Suban J Patrenko
Midfield J Corey S Pendleberry D Swan N Foley C Stiller C Masten D Beams D Zaharakis
Rucks D Hille C Bryan A Graham J Spencer
Forwards L Franklin B Deledio A Didak J Porplyzia J Roughead J Anthony S Gumbleton B Macaffer

Thanks

You have 3 injuries there you need to reconsider:
Grimes - this one is hot off the wire, wont play round 1 with a back injury
Egan - probably wont play this year (maybe not again) with bad fracture in his foot
Gumbleton - read somewhere about a hammy (I think) but has a history (already) of soft tissue problems. Wouldnt want them to get chronic (like Matt Liptak had) as he would be a DT owners worse nightmare then.
Good to see you with a skillful sport now, not those oversized, bumsniffing drunks playing league!

I will make some changes

Watch out re H Shaw as can't handle being tagged.
Porps shoulder is suspect.
Welcome also & agree with previous post also.

That's 50cents worth.

queenslander ey? which town did you grow up in?

macaffer = dud
bryan = dud
masten = good but will never score huge

gold coaster you are obviously a collingwood man.
H. Shaw
T. Lockyer
Pendlebury
Swan
Beams
Bryan
Didak
Anthony.
Macaffer

The most players you should have from a team is about 3. maybe 4 if its geelong or the tigers or maybe port. Anthony, macaffer and bryan are major duds. pendlebury is a sc player. h shaw is inconsistant.

i would only consider swan, didak, lockyer and beams on the bench.

interesting to look back now ... would it be better than 7 / 10 now?

I reckon it could easily be ... you?
