Rookie Team - thoughts?

[minty]

Backs: Goddard, Deledio, Birchall, Yarran, Grimes, Lake, M.Clarke    (B. Ellis, B. Smedts)

Mids: Ablett, Selwood, K. Stevens, D. Smith, Shiel, J. Magner     (J. McDonald, T. Mitchell)

Rucks: Goldstein, Leuenburger    (Giles, J. Redden)

Fwds: Franklin, D. Martin, Cloke, Zaharakis, N. Riewoldt, J. Brown, Zorko   (Pfeiffer, Cameron)


Obviously still some changes to make, thinking I will probably keep J.Brown and ride out the first couple of weeks with him, Grimes as well. Bench and subs still probably need changes based on last 2 NAB's, particularly thinking Mitchell, Smedts, M.Clarke, Shiel, Pfeiffer need to show a bit to stay picked. Any advice would be appreciated

wow gutsy to stay with the injured! not going for overall?
backline is solid but grimes is a lot of money to have just sitting there.. especially when you are already down in mids
rookie mids are great so keep it
rucks set and forget!!!
fwds perfect although riewoldt, cloke and j,brown yo yo like crazy

i would downgrade brown and grimes you can always trade them in if they are going great guns, then id upgrade stevens to a premium.. after that its all good!

rate mine? http://www.fanfooty.com.au/forum/index.php/topic,50071.0.html

Wow. Do you share needles?

High risk.

Good team for the medical room.

Grimes, Lake, Clarke, Brown, NRoo and Goldstein all seem a bit risky one way or another.

Prefer more reliable types but the other picks are really good.

Yarran could be a good unique.

Good luck.

Ok so too many injury risks? Would Hargrave be better than Lake? Will prob trade out J.Brown too. any other suggestions?

Brown's out for six weeks so you should definitely trade him.  Ballantyne might be an option as he is cheap and apparently going to be spending time in the midfield.

you must have a zillion dollars left over, right?

Mid:  Ablett, Selwood, K. Stevens, C. Smith, Magner, McDonald        Bench: Shiel, Treloar
