[Master Q]

Not bad. You rate West?

[bomberboy0618]

Yes, quite a lot. Think without ottens, he should be a very solid 2nd ruck.

id have steviej rather than goodes,dangerfield is disappointing year in year out,veszpremi even if he gets a game is a spud

[Master Q]

Yep. I wouldn't have Rhyce Shaw plus I reckon Hayes is a bit risky.

[Ringo]

Each to his own BB. I do not share the concerns with Rhyce Shaw in defence as in his last 6 games this year averaged over 100 so if he maintains that from may be a unique for you.

I would have desired a better 3rd Premium mid than Hayes returning from injury.  Just a thought there.

Dangerfield I would watch and see how he is being used as if he used more in the mid as well then I would jump on.

With Goodes I would not start him but use hom as an upgrade later on as we all know he tears it up in the later half of the season.  Trick will be to get the timing right.

[mmmurphy3]

As a carlton supporter  i think heath scotland is a champion but lets face it he not getting any younger and i think it will be very hard for him to match last years form.

[SAMCRO]

IMO, I don't think you've got enough rookies to make money off. Maybe downgrade some of the cheaper players which would leave money to upgrade elsewhere.

[TheMailman]

Ok although some of these comments are a bit strange I'll try my best to give some form of useful advice

Shaw is a fine choice, especially if a similar poor  scoring start happens to the backs next year.

The main query I have is whether Veszpremi will get games? didnt really this year

I have a similar issue with Morton. Generally the smaller Swans don't score great

Ok guys
Ive put together 2 teams.
One is a slightly more traditional team, the one which will hopefully get me far. The other team may lead to questioning of my sanity :P

[SAMCRO]

Team 2 is the kind of team that may have you inserting your face into the keyboard halfway through the season.

[charliesheen]

I think its about getting the right balance of proven premiums, potential premiums, underpriced premiums, rookies & mid pricers.

For example, in 2011 if you built a team heavily on potential you could have one that looks like this.

Goddard, Gibbs, Deledio, Grimes, A.Everitt, Otten, Heppel <Stanley, Toy, Lower>

Swan, Pendlebury, Cotchin, Sidebottom, Swallow, Harris <Curnow, Liba, Bewick>

Cox, Sandilands <Z.Smith, McCaulley>

Franklin, Pavlich, Fyfe, Dangerfield, Higgins, Petrie, Knights <Darling, Tapscott, Matera>

I've put all the dudd picks in bold.  As you can see, all the "good" picks are easily offset by the "bad" picks.  So you need to be carefully not to overload with too many guys that just show potential.
