Buddy / Goodes / Martin / N Roo / J Brown / T Walsh / G Weedon / C Hampton / Treloar

27K left over.

Rookies obviously not set yet and by bye time will cover a few more potential donuts.

Thanks

This is a great structured side. My only concerns are the 2 risks you've taken.

1. Grimes. Just not sure on him at this stage. With the Dees tough draw and how injury prone the poor guy is, I would be looking to him as a possible upgrade target.

2. Both N Roo and Brown in forwards. I would keep Brown and swap N Roo to either Zaharakis or Sidebottom.

They are my only issues but if they pay off you will look like a genius. :D

9/10

Thanks Big Ben,

Had Adcock last year and loved it.

But also bombed with JRooNRoo combo and Knights the dud.

Risk is fun though.

I don't really understand how you can pick Zaharakis or Sidebottom over N.Riewoldt

I think still with Nick his a proven star had a bad season last year but will be fully fit this year.

New gameplan from the saints should re invent his game.

Remember lead the afl in marks 2009 & 2010.

At his price his a 22 game lock in player no doubts about it.

Is this better?

Goddard / Shaw / Birchall / Broughton / Clarke / Morris / Bugg / Darley - L Brown in for Grimes

Ablett / Jelwood / Fyfe / Shuey / S Reid / D Shiel / Baguley / Gibson - maybe a bit stronger

Mumford / Leuenb / Giles / Stephenson - love this line

Buddy / Goodes / Martin / N Roo / J Brown / Hampton / Weedon / Horlin-Smith? / Crozier

11/11/8 bye rounds - will trade to stock up in round 13.

Thanks if you can be bothered.

PS No copying! Ha.

Very nice team - well balanced and should hopefully pay off for you!

I'd prefer to see Fyfe in the forward line, but I can appreciate the DPP links.

Well done!

What is your intention with Clarke - Keep or trade. If trade OK but if keep you will have 3 out in Round 13.

Just personal but I would replace Martin with Fyfe in forwards, and then bring in another prem of similar value. I am targeting Martin as an upgrade as I think his price will fall due to Tigers tough early draw and Martin has yet to really shine against these Top teams.

Shuey nice unique choice,

Slight risk with Brown and Roo but capable of better SC scores with both undervalued imo.
Like this Team 9/10 Well done and Good Luck.

Thanks to you all.

Fyfe is tempting, yes.

Might look at that.
