I'm a bit unsure on some of the players I picked, so if you could help me out, that'd be super

Goddard
Bock
Mackie
Nicoski
Raines
S. Selwood
S. Hill

Bench - Hurley, Kite

Bartel
Kirk (Not so sure)
Swan
K. Cornes (Not so sure)
Skipworth
Hartlett (Gonna get much time?)

Bench - Rich, Dangerfield

Ottens
??? (Need another decent ruckman, got no idea who to pick)

Bench - Trengrove, Tippet

Harvey
Deledio
Porplyzia
Roughead
J. Riewoldt
Higgins
Yarran

Bench - Sidebottom, Walker

I started mucking around with the players heaps after reading some peoples comments on this sight, picking players i didn't know as well (like my benched ruckmen), so yeah, any help would be great,

I got lots of spare cash too

nicoski is a dud, hurley is fairly expensive bench fodder, kirk is up and down depending on if he's doing a hard tag, as with cornes, theres better value in the mid than swan (gibbs is a prime example), rich is too expensive for bench fodder (needs to be in the 22), need a better first ruck than ottens (hille at the very least, ottens is a solid choice for the 2nd ruck slot), nice forward line.

sorry bout the bluntness, time for bed :P

I grabbed Nicoski cause I had him last year and he did alright (but he was cheaper then)

Yeah, i really had no idea what to do with the rucks. I don't like spending money on good rucks cause they just never seem to live up to there price

Thanks for the help, i'll go back to the drawing board :)

I'm not sure whether to have Rich or Hartlett..

And I have no idea about the Ruck bench, will they get some games?

I have $364,400 left over, so i can change it around quite a bit

Dedem

daniel currie is meant to get some gametime as a backup to jolly so he could be some good bench fodder

Cheers man, I put him in the side. I'll keep an eye out for him in Sydneys NAB game though

with that type of money left over you could do some upgrading. porplyzia has shoulders made of glass, and i dont know about roughead. id get some good forwards, or even upgrade someone down back. skipworth can be moved into the forwards, but if you believe there is more cheap talent in the forwards than so be it.  dont know about sidebottom. if walker gets a game i'll get him. i reckon j riewoldt could have a fantastic year

Cox is a reasonable ruckman, I'm led to believe.

Oh you got him now....

What is Pavlich like?

You've only got 2 of the 4 Selwwod brothers?

Chris Tarrant has a brother at the Kangaroos and Port has 3 or 4 Motlops.

Cornes is a family name that goes hand in hand with DT/SC success.

Sellar is ruck eligable (the only position you dont have an Adelaide bench player).

He and K Tippet have been training the roof off AAMI stadium this pre-season.

Petrenko plays for Adelaide and could go on the bench in the backline next to Kite.

A. Ottens or McKay(?) would look right at home next with Dangerfield on the pine in the Mids.

Porplyzia is a bit of an injury risk but not as much as B Burton.

You've got Bock, consider Mcleod and Johncock too. S. Stevens often pinch hits forward for good results and could be a bit unique.

UNIQUE?
