NO BARLOW ???

SC That was!   :D

reserve backs are unlikely to get matches

No N Riewoldt?

I think Jacobs will play, will maybe take spot vacated by N Krakouer... probably Marlon Motlop will be the danger for that.

[Cicjose]

Jacobs is a full back from my understanding not a running back. Karmichael Hunt will be a big bodied fullback and sierakowski has about 4 players ahead of him

[bctanks]

jacobs is a running back avg 29 disposals for vic metro this year

exactly why I put him in my team... Luke Hodge type of player, plays off the Half back line.

after a little editing I've come up with this.

red lettering are keepers (barring injury of course)
? mark after name not sure about, could change them.

B: Goddard~Hodge~Duffield~Grundy~McVeigh~T Williams~Otten~(Jacobs~Mzungu~Nicholson?)

M: Swan~Boyd~J Selwood~T Boak~A Gaff~J Polec~(A Krakouer~Liberatore?~N Winmar?)

R: Sandilands~Trengove~(Lycett~Daw)

F: Franklin~N Riewoldt~J Brown~J Riewoldt~Knights~Hale~Petrie~(N Ablett~B Matera~J Ferguson?

Structure: 2/4/2/2 - 3/1/2/3 - 1/1/0/2 - 2/3/2/3 = 8/9/6/10 (in the format of premium/mid/cheap/rookie for each position)

big NO on Nathan Ablett! he just scraped in on preseason selection
there are so many better forward rookies to look at  ::)

[PowerMan]

with the news that Hodge will be only a mid this year, I'd swap Hodge for Gibbs who'll be a m/b. this will give another 30k to upgrade Boak who has gone under the knife today to have his troublesome appendix removed.

what is the point of swapping hodge to gibbs when you have no mpp in the ctr to swap with from the def?
I wouldnt have mcveigh in my side he lets many people down with only a 60 odd average, most reasonable rookies average 60, so i'm advising to find a appropiate rookie, with most teams they have cam richardson, of course we'll be waiting for NAB for final rookie selections. For now Richo will do. Jacobs can start where richo can be on bench.
I would tade Liberatore or Winmar for Heppell, only because you are unsure of those players and Heppell has MPP for Goddard and Gibbsy.
I will not have Trengove in my team he hasn't proven himself. other then that 8/10

[browny_wce]

[j959]

+1
swap Hale for Petterd who's cheap as.

agree with popedelio - too much risk with Trengove but realise you're a "Power" man  ;)
