Decisions, decisions

The multi-round byes bring a dilemma for my team.

But, fortunately not the bad dilemma of how to avoid a doughnut, but which rookies to play.

Assuming all my premiums start i have some tricky decisions to make so i'd like some others opinions. Obviously team selections will come into it.

In defence i need to start four of these players: Broughton (keeping him until i can change to Adcock next week or Enright after his bye), Lower, Duigan, Otten, Stanley and Toy. Who would you pick? Currently i'm thinking Otten/Lower and Toy on bench

In midfield I have four spots and five players: Foley, Heppell, Harris, Swallow, Krakouer (or could MPP to get Prestia here). Krak or Swallow looks the likeliest to ride the pine imo.

In attack there are also four spots in contention with 6 actives: Knights, Darling, Prestia, Petrie, Richardson, Matera. Matera and Richo are currently emergencies.

Any advice would be helpful.

Personally I'd go

Defence: Broughton, Duigan, Otten and Toy

Despite Broughton's bad start he has to play.  Duigan has done well so far so he should keep his spot.  Otten is up against Port who have been poor so should do fairly well.  Toy is playing an inconsistent Melbourne so should start if named.  If he isn't named then Lower should play.

Mids: Heppell, Harris, Swallow, Krakouer

Heppell is a gun and could have a huge game against the Blues.  Harris and Swallow should do well in the middle against the Dees.  Krakouer to rip it up against his old team.

Forwards: Knights, Darling, Prestia, Petrie

Forward line picks itself really.  I was umming and ahhing over Petrie or Richardson but you gotta go with experience here.

That's just my opinion, so good luck with your team selection!
