A nice team. Really unique. I like it a lot!!

Backs -
Suckling has had injury problems so I'd just watch that.
Hanley... *shhh* great unique!!
Buntine has been touted as a pretty average fantasy scorer. Good player for the team but doesn't need the ball to be good if you get what i mean...

Mids -
Three guns pretty good.
Gaffy another sneaky unique with everyone going for Barlow.

Rucks -
An almost unique Dean Cox. Cool!
Leuy is a gun.

Fwds -
SJ - I'd watch as he will probably get less time through the middle as Geelong look develop young midfielders. An upgrade target for me.
Beams is someone i am not sold on. Only got 14 games last season. I'd look to Steele Sidebum for 40k less.
Watts - Ballsy but great if he is pushed up the ground by the recruitment of Mitch Clark.
Good rooks :P

Nice team mate. Great uniques!

Nice team mate! Loving Hanley, Gaff and Watts as mid-pricers/unique guns! also Big Coxy (hard to believe he is going to be unique).

[crumpetjack]

I personally would do Suckling to Goddard, but if you're confident in Suckling further stepping it up go for him. I had him last year so I do love Suckling.

I'd suggest not saying Beam is a 'potential premium' at $500k. That price is all in, get him out if you're not 100% happy.

But overall super team, like it a lot!

great team just a few points

1. cox and burger both on a round 11 bye with giles.
2. i doubt buntine will make you a lot more cash if any than a 104k rook and 70K extra in the bank to start
3.  well there is no 3.

good jib and good luck :)
