Maybe 1 defender and 1 forward depending on how Petrie, Knights & Otten go.

Good pick up - it was from a previous incarnation where I still had in the forwards before he came mid only. I will adjust and edit the original post.

valk does this strategy work for overall, because im thinking of downgrading anthony and getting 5 premium/ high end mid picers (eg grimes) in both the forward line and backline.

I am not confident of this strategy for overall - I lost a lot of points early in the season using this strategy (including my lowest ever score of 1600'ish in round 3). As you know overall is about consistency over the whole season. I definitely like the strategy for league play as you can have all guns in your side by round 10'ish
