Solid as a rock!?

[Maca24]

Think ive made a good team just wanted to see your opinions.

Backs. Deledio, Kelly, Broughton, Hurn, Drummond, Otten, Mzungu.
Bench. Richardson, Toy, Retzlaff.

Mids. Goddard, Swan, J.Selwood, Swallow, Caddy, Heppell.
Bench. Krakouer, Wallis, M.Sewell.

Rucks. Sandilands and Ryder.
Bench. Smith and Daw.

Forwards. N.Riewoldt, Didak, Pavlich, Rioli, Goodes, Knights, Petrie.
Bench. Butcher, Matera, Talia.


So how is it?

1. Think its a great idea to start 3 rookies in mid  ;) as Swallow i think you could class as a non rookie but a cheap gun plus they will all earn you cash.

2. I don't mind you having Broughton & Mzungu unless of course Freo have the BYE near the start.

3.Really good rucks!

hey maca,
i agree with your name, VERY SOLID TEAM.
yer just on the two freo backs but that will depend on when the bye is,
also i think selwood will burn a few people this year, he will finally cop abletts tag every week so i think he may have a quiet ish year for selwood standards.
but other than that i may swap knights for petterd

[benjy251090]

maybe get harris/foley in the mids somewhere, but a nice team nonetheless

[CrowsFan]

Very solid team indeed. Maybe one thing to consider is getting some MPP between the mids and the forwards?

[Maca24]

cheers guys. yea mzungu would be a cash cow and sharing 7th back with richardson and toy probably mixing it up a bit. yea agree mop im not sold on selwood yet it was either him or judd for me. crowsfan would you like me to fit mcneil in there or?  :)

[mophead222]

yer benjy is right, go for harris or foley in the mids, and maybe swap selwood for chappy? then you get mpp

[Maca24]

why harris or foley? and is MPP worth sacrificing a better player?

[CrowsFan]

If McNeil gets a game I think he is definitely worth putting on your mids bench just to get that cover. Although I think Ossie mentioned another rookie who might be a Mid/Fwd so he could also be good. Not sure who it was though...

[Maca24]

yeah that phillips bloke. will watch him.

[Bosh]

Good but needs some fixing, just a little bit sorry.

[Maca24]

how bosh? criticism is fine just give me reasons why  :)

[Bosh]

Well look at your backline, pretty much everyone of them miss a fair amount of game time last year, VERY injury prone, Petrie and Knights very injury prone, and Rioli usually does a hammy once a year. But jst the backline, yes it looks great on paper, but think about changing some players around.
Dont hAve to listen, just what I would do And i finish top 2,000 last year.
Thanks that is all.

[Maca24]

totally disagree but thanks anyway.
injury prone is a player that gets injured once a year.
hurn doesnt, knights doesnt otten doesnt and broughton doesnt.
rioli is worth the risk and should be fine with a full preseason.
drummond and petrie are a little injury prone but no big deal.

[Maca24]

any more opinions?  :)
