needs a bit of work

apart from ablett and maybe swallow i dont think those mids are 115+ players or even 110+

drummond is a risk, giles might not score alot seeing as brogan will be 1st ruck

kennedy might be too inconsistent being a key forward

i like the picks of beams, robinson grimes, i think these guys are gonna have a great year

stick with the premium and rookie method and leave out mid pricers

if you spend 250-300k+ on a player you should plan to keep them all year unless they get an LTI

thanks jim! i think Cotchin and Gibbs have potential to have huge years and be 115+ players
I know what you mean about the rucks, but everyone seems divided on this issue of 1 prem, 3 rookies. i've done my sums and am confident i can wait a while to upgrade my rucks.
Drummond is a risk but uses the ball too well to ignore at that price!
Might take your advice on J Kennedy though... Cheers

with so much cash left over would certainly look at upgrading gibbs, cotchin robinson kennedy or with rowe injured downgrade 1 and get another prem ruck

Thanks for the feeedback
I think Gibbs, Cotchin and Robinson are in for big years
Kennedy is becoming a worry though.
Rowe should be fit round 1
cheers

You even managed to get Kennedy and he's only ex carlton :)  I will take your advice onboard though, much appreciated cheers. ps, i think judd has gone soft since becoming a dad. very ordinary in finals last year

I think the byes are relevant for league as well this year.

Rounds 11-13 will be tough indeed.

Good luck.

Fyfe / Sandi / Drummond / Beams / Cotchin / Gibbs / Kennedy - all worry me.

Thanks for the comment. I'll take it on board

Would not be comfortable with both Drummond and Lake risk in defence.

Not convinced that Gibbs is the best option as M3 will he score as much as say Selwood, Murphy or Swan.  I would be using some of your cash to upgarde Cotchin to one of these.

I also think you need another prem forward as expecting both Beams and Robinson to score big is a risk.
