Yah fair enough.

Here is my back line currently:

Goddard, Deledio, Shaw, Heppell, Lake, Morris & Darley (Hine & L.Brown)

What I'd love to do is get Grimes.  :P

Football Factory

@Windigo

do you have 4 guns in your midfield and 2 rookies? or 5 guns and 1 rook?

2 premo's in ruck or Premo + giles?

JamSainter

Yeah my defence reads similar.
Goddard, Deledio, Shaw, Heppell, Grimes, Clarke, Wilkes (Ellis, Morris)

4 guns in mid:

Swan, GAJ, Selwood & Redden

2 guns in ruck:

Mumford & Jacobs

4 guns in fwd:

Franklin,Pavlich, Sidebottom & Gray. I think Robbie is potentially a gun this year.....Brown dog as 5th.

Gray and Sidebottom just go into and out of games too often. But mind you, I do like Gray, I commend you on having the balls to pick a port power premium!!

True.

But with Johnson & Didak both out. I smell some mid time coming his way.

I see huge upside with Gray. I don't have much too fear really. Played every game last year and all.  :)

Don't really need to have either...

Haha, I'm not getting either.  ;)

Few things from Port about Gray's preseason.

Port Adelaide fitness coach Cam Falloon says criticism of Robbie Gray's injury prone body is not warranted.

"He hasn't got as bad a body as everyone thinks," Falloon said.

"Robbie did everything we asked of him during the off-season and hasn't missed a beat yet. We'll keep a close eye on him, but he completed 95 per cent off last pre-season, so to be honest he's not on a modified program at all."

Port Adelaide forward Robbie Gray is hoping for a change of luck on the injury front after having his best-preseason to date.

"It's the most training I've managed to do in a pre-season, so I guess it's good from that point of view," he said.

"I've had a good pre-season so I'm pretty confident heading into the season -but I say that every pre-season. I'm doing everything I can. I'm just praying it all holds up and that I can get through the season."
Robbie Gray played all 22 games last season; why is there a big injury concern?? Also looking at his his lowest scores from last year, there is 43, 55, 28 and 35. Anyone know if those were sub affected or something?? Or just really bad games?

Yeah, I'm keen on Duffield. The round 12 bye helps his backline cause and I have an odd soft spot for him. Dunno why :P Need more Round 11ers in the backline.
