Yeah rookies will almost certainly change before rnd 1.

[Mr.Craig]

Good team, fairly low risk. Panos did stuff all on the weekend, you might want to think about a possible replacement.

Exactly what I thought.

I dunno about Robbie Gray, I reckon there are better options. You're leaving yourself a bit exposed in the ruck if the rooks get injured/rested early, and again with Heppell I think there are better options he may go ok or improve a little but might suffer 2nd year blues too. I'd prefer to go cheaper or pay that bit more and get a real gun.

Gray worth the risk imo, and yes i've upgraded Heppell to Birchall.

heppell >>> birch was good and gray's selection won't do you any harm [ got heaps of the ball in an internal trial]

Intra Club trial wouldn't be hard to get a kick against a half strangth Port Adelaide side

But anyway Gray is a good player and a great pick

Good team, but Giles as your #2 ruckman?

Surely you could find some dollares and grab Hamish Mcintosh?

The way i see it is Giles will average more than a fwd rookie and it allows me to upgrade one of my fwd rookies to say Pav, who will probs average more than than Sandi or someone anyway.

i would take out goods because he doesnt start getting a good average until the last half of the season useally

He has an easy start to the season playing GWS and GC very early, so hopefully this is the year he changes that late charge to a more even spread.

Good team dude, to be honest, we have only 3 things different which is a little bit scary, but makes me a little biased too :P :)

Whilst that is true, Goodes did average 92 in his first 11 games last year which is by no means a bad effort. Not to mention he has an easy draw to start with and he is once again having a great preseason, i think that makes him a definite lock from round 1.  :D
