FWD: L.Franklin, N.Fyfe, D.Martin, S.Sidebottom, R.Gray, C.Hampton, A.Hall (T.Walsh, S.Kerridge)

CASH LEFT: $4,000

just a few things about the team:
1. I've gone with 4 premiums and 1 mid priced in the MID - those will be the top 4 averaging players at the end of 2012 IMO, Sloane is set for a huge year (avg 100-105)
2. Gone Fyfe > Goodes purely because of age and Freo's dream draw
3. Gray has massive upside, and IMO will average 95-100

thanks boys!

No Goddard?? Stocked up on mids too. Age means nothing in DT. Lucas may average 75, but so will some rookies. And you can;t vote less than 8.5?? Need to fix the poll.

trade out lucas for shiel, will average the same and will save you an extra $100 000. Use the money to upgrade Grimes to Deledio

no mid rookie will average 75+ - Lucas has a lot better potential than any rookie for the extra 50k
Scotland > Goddard.
it isn't less than an 8.5.

IMO, I'd rather Grimes + Lucas than Deledio and Shiel/Miles/McDonald

Ahh, but take out the 50k you spend on lucas, then you only need the rookie to average 65-70. ;)

true,
just have to decide if I want Birchall/Deledio + 104k Rookie or Grimes + Lucas

Yeah I voted 9, i was impressed but your team could fail miserably. The three mid price def I'm not a huge fan and instead of Lucas, maybe just go Josh Caddy he will ave over 80.

Not a bad team, I liked it.

Nothing, I just personally like him. But Lucas played well today sooo go with him.
